RESTAURANT PAOLO Reviews

Delicious gorgonzola dressing. Wine a bit overpriced for size glass. I had linguine with white clam sauce. Delicious and large portion. My hubby had purse pocket pasta with pears in it. His portion way too small for price. We will go back to Momma Mia's downtown Hollywood from now on.

Been going there when we're in the area and always great food, entertainment and service

Great food! Great atmosphere! Great music by Andre!

Love this place love the owners they always make you feel like you're at home the entertainment is excellent what a great place to spend your birthday

Amazing!!!!! Great atmosphere, staff and of course the owner!!! We will be back on our next florida vacation!!

My boyfriend and I love this place! We went for the cooking show one night and the place was packed, luckily we made reservations. Paolo and Annie were very entertaining.
It's a neat place and the food is great.

Music and dancing. The music is oldies with some new songs mixed in. Great older crowd, very friendly

Fabulous good, great service. The decor is a little old fashioned but very interesting. Again, gray food
Best Italian restaurant around.

Oasis on an island of Jimmy buffet bars and restaurants. This place has class!

Great place, good atmosphere, good food and live music.

Expensive, decent food, but not enough to save my hunger

Had a great time moms 80th birthday was treated like family

The food is great though small portions, but the service is outstanding with live music. All and all it's a great little Mom n Pop place.

I had my mom's 93 bithday celebration there. Paolo's 3's Company provide a great table in the Sinatra corner. The food was great, the service was great the host was great. I love this place and it's atmosphere! 10 thumbs up!!!

Fun pricey, but definitely worth going. Parking is non existent and they have no valet. Food is good.

The food is absolutely fantastic. My hats off to Annie and Paolo I feel like family. Thank you for your gracious hospitality!

Authentic Old School Italian Family Establishment...
Awesomeness

Great atmosphere owner was there, live music, great food and service

Great fun; excellent, friendly service, happy customers, and good food.

Entertainment is wonderful.

Palio s 3 s Company is my favorite place in Broward Co. The food is always outstanding, but Paolo is a rock star. Showed up with no reservations on a Saturday night, and he greeted me like we were brothers. Can t say enough good things. Paola s attention to detail and Love for his passion is amazing. @PCHInTheFlow

Came in for a drink. Ended up sticking around for hours. Live music was great, had a Fernet with the owner. Awesome place

Horrible, the waiter makes to many jokes and the food is far from good....

Visited Paolo's a few months back and had the same experience as Kay Pat..We were there with several friends 2 of which were African American and Paolo never looked our way, even when we attempted to reach out to him, he totally blew us of. Ironically one of his regular patrons had a medical emergency and our friend who is African American immediately jumped into action to assist. That gentlemen was very appreciative of what he did. WE WILL NEVER VISIT THIS ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN. Ann was a sweetheart. Paolo rude and disrespectful...

It was a bit overpriced, but the food was excellent and the staff was very attentive.

Amazing. Paolo and Annie are the best. The cooking class was so much fun, Paolo has such a fun and creative vibe, Annie glows with kindness and the rest I'd the crew, and including the bands make you feel like you're at home with family! We love it there and with 20 plus years of regulars I'm sure they will be around forever! We hope so anyway!

My family and I went here after it was recommended by the hotel we were staying at. We were not disappointed. Friendly staff, great food and atmosphere. Paulo came out and greeted us and was extremely friendly. Next time we're down its definitely going to be a stop for us again.

Came here on a vacation, and the service was wonderful. Food was amazing and tasted like it was made with love. Very comfy and cozy just like you re eating with your family for dinner! The owner and waitress provided the best service I ve ever experienced! This is now our go to spot when we come to Florida!

Fabulous restaurant. The food is superb and the staff is wonderful. Very friendly and attentive. Paolo and Ann are great hosts making you feel welcome and at home. It's a must try restaurant

Great service, and it has pretty neat scenery. The food was also very good the restaurant deserves attention

Our waitress was rude, did not know the menu. The food was ok, sauce was runny and thin. No gluten free menu and it seemed it was a hastle when asked about it. A little over priced.

Although the food was good and the entertainment was somewhat decent, the fact that the tip was already added to the check as "Suggested" was a bit of a let down. They gave themselves a pretty hefty tip to boot. Well over the typical 15% I usually give to servers that have earned the extra money. The "Special" was a Linguini and White Clam Sauce which was pretty good but not worth the $30 price tag they put on the dish. The fish was not good and dry according to one of our family who had that for dinner. If you write in a tip for yourself, do it on another piece of paper and let the customer decide how much they would like to give. That's how its done elsewhere.

Always great. Music and food are first rate! You'll never find a more dedicated husband-wife restaurant team than Annie and Paolo! -Beetlejuice Steve

Incredible experience first time in. And the friendly people was great the music super. Last but not least the food was delicious. Will go back anytime.

The food was outstanding. I had the linguini with clams and the white sauce, salad and garlic bread. The restuarant was recommended to me by a local and he was right when he said I would thank him for the recommendation the next day. The owner greeted me as soon as I sat down and the waitress (bartender as well) was great. This is probably the friendliest restaurant I've ever been too. I would definitely recommend stopping by here.

From appetizers to entrees to dessert, everything was delicious! Very cool atmosphere! The owners were very friendly and generous! What a wonderful experience!

Really good food. Music was good. Will definitely go back

Very good service and very good food, four of us are very happy to be here.

What an amazing restaurant! The food is incredible, and the Service 5 starts! 100% recommended

Food was awesome, staff very nice. Good live entertainment.

The atmosphere and food is amazing. The service is great!!

Pollo the owner will greet you at the door and if you've been there the second time he will remember your name the food is fabulous if the Italian food that you order is not on the menu they will possibly try and make it for you the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to and I'm Italian

Food was great and service was even better. A great place to stop by and have dinner at.

Love the owner, friendly, friendly, treated like a queen. Everyone is welcome. I have a medium appetite. I took home leftovers....I had enough for more than 2 more meals. They gave me the largest chicken breast I've ever seen. Live music, rod Stewart impersonator, jazz, music.....Love this place. The owner checks on everyone.

We went to this place to listen to music and have dinner. Unfortunately they also had a birthday party going on at the same time. Our reservation was for 7:30 which we were there on time. The place was crowded to capacity and service was non existent since the party took president. We waited 21/2 hours and no food. They should have compensated for the crowd and had more cooks available. When asked about the our dinner we were told they only had one cook for the restaurant and the others 2 were handling the party. I cancelled my food since I wasn't eating at 9:45 and when the pasta came for the others it look like soup. Won't be going back again.

Absolutely loved this place very friendly people the food is delicious the entertainment is entertaining!!

Annie wonderful greetings every time. Paolo too fantastic as a host with great food, humor, and remembers his clients. Very personal and entertaining.

Love this place...amazing food, great service, nice environment...

Great atmosphere, definitely a "local spot". The food was good, the owner is quite a "character". And live music on Saturday night! If I was a Local, I think this would one of my "go to" places.

This place has the best authentic Italian food here in Fort Lauderdale. The staff and owner or very friendly. I highly recommend this place.

An outstanding experience, made special by the personal involvement and energy of the owner. A very welcome environment. Great food too!

love the atmosphere in this place. It is warm and cozy and everyone has such a good time. The live band what's good with a nice selection of music being performed. The evening I was there hosted a more mature crowd but fun and laughs all around. While I did not eat I hear the food is delicious and I look forward to trying it next time. A very nostalgic feeling to the place. I can't wait to go back

Ducked in because I had family in town that wanted some good Italian Food and I had never visited here and it was a total 5 Star Experience, here's why:
* Longevity--they have been here for many years, 30+
* Aroma--when you walk in the smell in the air tells you everything you need to know
* Ambiance--Happy people eating, laughing, dancing, having fun!
* Service--top notch. Attentive, cordial, sincere, genuine, caring. Nice.

Highlights:
* Garlic bread is served piping hot, and delish, and Paolo (the namesake) is attentive and sure to tell you that it is not made from Hoagie bread! SCORE!
* I had Linguine and White Clam Sauce--this is their top seller, now I know why, Paolo came over to help fat boy learn how to eat, "use a spoon-uh like this a Steve-ah." It was endearing.
* Cousin Karen had some Bolognese pasta deal. Wow! Their meat sauce has meat. MONEY!
* Cousin Mike plowed his way through Shrimp Scampi and finished before the rest of us.

Great portions. 3 people with tip and wine under a C-note, WINNING!

Indoor and outdoor seating.

Dance floor and live music, a hit with the 65 and older crowd.

Great vibe.

Total home run. I am embarrassed that I haven't been here sooner, but you will see me here again soon!

Mangia! Cent Anni! Good stuff!!!

Cabeza OUT!

Great food...wish the stuffed mushrooms were bigger though...they r delicious...entertainment always

Food is excellent. Rod Stewart impersonator was good but I hate rod Stewart

Great staff, feels like family! Good music and dance floor!

This is a "members only type of place". Didn't not feel welcome as a new comer and some employees were extremely rude and should not be working there. Place needs a thorough cleaning.

Great place. The feel and look of old Vegas. Paolo is a warm, friendly host. The service team are friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food is Wonderful.

Very nice atmosphere, very friendly staff & the owner jolly & proud of his love of food & serving the same!The seafood pasta was good, could have had more zip!

Good food, good music, friendly crowd. What more could you ask for. Having my next birthday party here soon!

.... nice people mostly Canadian owner was Italian bartender was Ecuadorian
Disappointed in the food I had chicken parmesan the chicken breast was deep-fried instead of baked and they charge $5.50 for a Budweiser....
Overall the value was not there for piece of deep fried chicken in a 550 Budweiser

Trump president...this place is called a restaurant...i guess everything goes in America! Disastrous!

Love this place and if you go often enough you know to ask for the fresh poppy seed dressing that's not on the menu and did I mention the 'pears in a purse' pasta dish, YUMMY!

Went for dinner...treated like aliens..like why are you here? Overlooked it. Sat..ordered...my friend (who is black) ordered caprese salad and chicken. Told, not on the menu. Took out the menu..showed the waitress. Then owner comes and addresses my friend in front of everyone, like hes educating her on how chicken and caprese salad don't work on the same plate. Cancelled the order attempted to pay for the bread and tea and a salad being brought out. WAITRESS SAYS, IT'S $3.00. I GIVE HER THE CARD AND SHE SAYS. YOU DON'T HAVE THREE DOLLARS...THERE IS A TEN DOLLAR MINIMUM ON THE CARD. Needless to say, offered my DL with the card, and left. Note to public...that behavior is OUTDATED IN 2016 AMERICA!!!

Paolo's 3 is an amazing family restaurant. not only do they have excellent Italian food but their steaks, lamb chops and fish are excellent as well.
Paolo runs the shop, he's the star of the show and invites you to join him on stage.
family has been going there for more than 10 years the food is delicious and everyone has a great time.
Some of the waiters are also a lot of fun, too. Many of their customers are senior but there's lots of good times for all.

The old and popular Three's Company where the owner is always there to greet you , They havevdelicious Italian dishes and listen to live music at the same times and dance seven nights a week .

Warm and welcoming authentic Italian place. Paulo himself circulates to make sure people are comfortable and served the delicious food coming out of the kitchen. The stuffed mushrooms, and eggplant were just garlicky right, as was the bread. Drinks were generous. Glad our hotel recommended this local gem.

Food, service and entertainment were thoroughly enjoyable

Wonderful place for a romantic dinner. Later in the evening (on a Tuesday) is a quiet time. The decor is nice, with lots on photos and prints of celebs (Marilyn and Elvis, for example) from the past! The wine and dinner were excellent ! There was live entertainment , who sang songs from the '70's and played the sax - very talented! There is even a dance floor! If we are ever back this way, we will definitely be back!

Fabulous place Great food. The night life there is the best around. Dancing friendly locals. Fantastic owners. There is always some great music and entertainment going on. You are only a stranger here once. I always make it to Paolo's when i visit Dania Beach. Great food go for dinner stay for dancing
Don't miss this place.

Excellent. Suzy the bartender made us feel welcome and waited on us even when we moved to a table. Paolo spoke to us multiple times and gave us extra bread which was GREAT. We would definitely return if we come back to this area. Highly recommend!!

Food was delicious. Service was great. I had the lobster ravioli which was very good. My husband had the traditional ravioli which he enjoyed as well.

Long standing great Italian restaurant in Dania Beach. IMO the best in the area. Old school Italian with a Frank Sinatra vibe

Love the food, the atmosphere and Especially the staff!

We go here often or birthday parties etc. Christmas New Year's or all birthdays.
And and Pablo are great

First time here.. Very good crowd on a sunday night.. Food was above average, but keep in mind i am italian and know food. So for most it would be considered excellent.
