    Food

    This place is absolutely awesome! The waiter is extremely polite and funny at the same time. Beautiful area, and the bathrooms are extremely clean. The food service is a full 10/10 I recommend this place, and the prices for the food options are very fair and great.

    Wow.. where do I start? Ok, I brought my wife and mom here for a quick lunch and had no expectations on how this place would be but I was blown away. We just returned from Spain and I had some of the best food I've ever had in Barcelona and Madrid... Or so I thought. The food here was amazing. Everything tasted fresh and the portions were more than enough. Whatever is in the Dragon sauce is a winner on everything. Now, the icing on the cake was Griselda. She was a delight. What an awesome person to have when you're sitting down for some food to unwind. She was humorous and helpful the entire time. There was a large party that came in soon after us and the staff handled the volume of customers with no problem. They were attentive and always there to help. I really appreciate Griselda and all the help she gave us. We will be coming back to eat here! It's also very beautiful as you can see from the pictures. Nice and quiet, and cool art everywhere

    Wings

    WINGS ARE THE BEST IN THE AREA! Pizza real good too and the service is great. The restaurant itself is super cool inside.

    I see this place is expanding somewhere else in Chicago landing. I was leaving work. I decide to pull over and give this place a shot. I do not eat pork so only went with the cheese slice. It was very underwhelming. I think that cheese slice was about $5

    Ambiance was good. Food was great and very fresh. Service was amazing and she was very kind. Will definitely be back! We loved it! (Do not pay attention to Haters in the neighborhood).

    Impressive. Finally we get something worthwhilein our neighborhood of West Elsdon, as we are often overlooked but the businesses are starting to flourish after 2020 and this makes me happy. Gone are the times of the smaller pizza places as Paisans was known in the suburbs and has now landed here which for us is a big deal. Nicely done! For starters we came on a Saturday and ordered chicken vesuvius I'm a rich dark sauve. Unfortunately I expected more as it was a few pieces of a chicken and large potatoes wedges. Not at all what I expected,, the taste was okay though. For the size and the price, I don't think it matches. It's not even 1/2 a chicken and at best, okay. It goes well with a nice and cold beer on draft though. The soup (lentils) had big chunks of bacon and was extremely well seasoned and very authentic. But of course in an Italian pizzeria, lentils soup is not the typical norm as this was done paisa (mexican) style, absolutely not bad though. This is something that many would surely appreciate for sure. The cob salad was 1/3 portion but extremely worth the price as I couldn't even finish it. They had roasted corn on it so it was a nice touch. All in all I would defintely come back for pizza and beer and maybe chicken wings. The vesuvius is not to my expectation but it is good I will give it that. Try it and I am almost certainly you would like it, but ask for a side of rice or something as I felt it lacked something of a side, potatoes wedges just don't seem to be the ending. So for circuses, I appreciate the really nice atmosphere and for the service, the waiter was very well versed in hospitality and that's is always a plus. Food was good, and like I said I would be back. So please make sure you try them out.

    Pineapple Habanero wings

    An absolutely remarkable place, and the food its even better. So much flavor. Since the first time i had the pizza from Paisans 8 years ago Ive been keep coming back. We loved the place, its nice and crowded and They just opened a new location near my house and  let me they you the decor in the place is excellent! It's a combination of rustic and industrial, I will call it Rustrial. This time we were able to sat down right away. We knew what we wanted, so We order the jumbo Supreme pizza, it comes with Sausage, pepperoni, onions, mushrooms, and green peppers. and for the side order i had The Award winning First place at Chicago's best wing fest 2017 Pineapple Habanero Wings they are tossed with your choice of sauce. Served with ranch. and for my drink i had the Lemonade. Once the Pizza and the wings arrived. We were taken to flavor town. Every single bite was out of this world. But The pineapple Habanero Wings were the real winner in this feats. The sauce has become a favorite of mine. i didn't know the combination of pineapple and habanero will go so perfect, like a dance full of flavor. This place is amazing! Great atmosphere, family friendly and the decor is vintage beautiful! With 8 locations all over the chicago area and new ones opening up soon I would definitely recommend it to everyone. Thank you!!!

    The best quality is using fresh ingredients to make pizza, and tasty onion rings and lemon peppers are good, too.
