Paulie's is one of my go to carb load spots. The restaurant is the perfect blend of small neighborhood spot with just enough seating. Definitely go for pasta here, and if you can handle spicy, get the Amaratricana. There's also a little wine bar attached/next door if you need to wait.

We live up in Spring, so are not always in Houston. Whenever we make it down, we usually stop by Paulie s. The food is fresh and the homemade pasta is delicious. Make sure you end your meal with one of the fantastic cookie selections.

Nothing I've ever had here has disappointed. By far, their Canestri Alla Funghi has been my favourite pasta in all of Houston. Creamy without being heavy or greasy, earthy from the mushrooms and perfectly Al dente pasta, this pasta is an absolute treat. Their portions are more than generous and the ...

Overpriced and under-portioned, but nice atmosphere. $17 for Full sized chicken piccata: small pile of pasta and single filleted chicken breast. Sigh. At least the chicken was tender and the pasta was al dente. If they doubled the portions and cut the price it would be worth the visit.

Food is always fresh, service is fast during nonpeak hours and place is clean. I always get the chicken salad sandwich on panini bread, and my kids get the grilled cheese and chicken breast. Something for everyone. They also have off menu daily specials and daily happy win...

Everything at this place is incredible. The burgers, the pastas, the plates. My favorite is the rigatoni but I've never been disappointed and I've tried quite a bit of the menu. Also great wine choices and wonderfully smelling and tasting freshly baked pastries daily.

Hi! I am italian, and every time I go to an "italian" restaurant I am very prepared to be disappointed. I asked for a Rigatoni alla bolognese. The pasta was cooked on point and the ragu' sauce was really good, not
the traditional ragu but really good. I will for sure go back to try other types of p...

I have been to Paulie's many times for lunch, and it was always on point.

It's tasty Italian dishes prepared with fresh made pasta. They also have delicious sugar cookies in fun shapes.

If you aren't sure what you would like, I recommend the Chicken Picatta (Tangy lemon and white wine), Canest...

I've been coming to Paulie's since I was in grade school and it absolutely never disappoints. The food is so tasty! My favorite thing on the menu is the Yezzi sandwich (feta, spinach, tomato on their amazing bread) with pasta salad but their Caesar salad is great, the chicken piccata, spaghetti and ...

I practically live here I go here so often. The staff is the best in all of Houston! Period. The food is astoundingly good! I recommend the skirt steak, chicken picatta, and literally everything. As a Houstonian & local Montrose dweller I can with confidence say this is one of the best restaurants i...

Like others have said, portions are very generous! Delicious and good variety. Extremely casual as you order at a counter. But don't let that stop you. Trendy seating and atmosphere. My new favorite Italian restaurant for the price!

The employees were very nice and friendly. The place had a good atmosphere. The food was okay. The coffee was good, I had the pasta with pesto. I felt like the pasta needed more seasoning. The chicken was good. The cucumber water was delicious. Overall pleased with my experience.

We heard great things about their chicken cesaer salad, we were eager to try it. We got a large salad with a full order of chicken. We were told it was a huge salad. To our surprise it was just a an ok salad, not very big with lots of romaine & over cooked small portion of chicken. The flavor was go...

Paulies is my favorite restaurant in Houston! I love everything about it! The food is served in very generous portions; my husband and I usually split a meal and add a soup or salad as a starter. The 'big salad' and 'vegetable soup' are equally delicious! Everything on the menu is so good; my fa...

Neighborhood restaurants like Paulie's are the reason I never want to move to the suburbs. Every time I come here, I always see someone running into someone they know. It's obvious Paulie's is a neighborhood fave that keeps people coming back time after time.

There is always a steady crowd, and...

2 strikes and your out. Last time I showed I neglected to bring my wallet. They would not let me order till I returned (ignoring the fact that had I ordered to go it would have been ready). Tonight I ordered on the phone. Was told it would be 50 minutes and they would call me. No call after an hour....

Little place with some really good Italian inspired dishes. It can get quite packed at times.

Suggestions: Their chicken piccata is really good. Some of their handmade pastas are also quite good but I haven't tried everything. Their osso buco is to die for but it's only served on Thursdays.

Wonderful local, fresh, homemade pastas. Small and large size plates. Large selection of meat and vegetarian options. Good salads also, perfectly dressed. Wonderful desserts consisting of cookies, coffee and espresso, and pastries round out the meal.

Paulie's is honestly one of my favorite restaurants. Everything I've had here has been delicious. The restaurant is sort of small, so it can get crowded fast, but it is worth waiting for a table (you seat yourself and pick up your food as well, aka no waiters.) Since it can get really crowded during...

My husband and I have wanted to try Paulie's since we moved to Houston a few months ago, and thought that now would be a good time to support a local business... we were not disappointed! I had the cremini mushroom dish and it was AMAZING. The full size was enough for two meals. My husband was happy...

The food here is pretty good and a nice date night location. Menu is solid, haven't had anything bad. It's also nice you have the option to get either a half or full portion which their portions here are pretty big. Atmosphere gives off a chill hipster vibe which is no surprise being in the Montrose...

I m at Paulie s at least weekly at this point, but have gone more regularly at times. I ve eaten my way through the entire menu at Paulie s since moving to Montrose three months ago. Everything is on the menu is good! The produce in all the salads in so fresh and flavourful. My favourite is the Big ...
