At Di Paolo’s our journey began with our beloved grandparents, Maria & Albert Di Paolo, who humbly opened a family pizzeria and small grocery store known as Italian Kitchen. As the aroma of freshly baked pizzas and the taste of homemade sauce filled the air, they, along with our father, Michael Di Paolo, expanded, adding more seating to accommodate our growing clientele. Before long, the bustling atmosphere and the buzz of the satisfied customers prompted them to evolve into a full-fledged restaurant where families and friends could gather to enjoy well portioned Abruzzese meals and lively conversation, while being entertained with live music throughout the restaurant. What truly sets us apart is our commitment to treating every guest like family. Whether you’re a regular patron or visiting us for the first time, you’ll always be welcomed with open arms and genuine warmth. Come join us at Di Paolo’s, where good food and good company come together to create unforgettable memories.

    I took my husband for his birthday, and it was just so amazing. The staff was lovely, the food was incredible! Our favorite dish was definitely the Elk Meatballs, they were tender and had an amazing flavor! The atmosphere was very nice. I would definitely take my husband back again for anything.

    Another fabulous meal at La Fia; it's always fun to go with someone who hasn't been before, or only once or twice and get to see them experience all of the amazing food for the first time! As always, everything was absolutely outstanding: the focaccia with the honey butter is so addicting, I feel like I can't not order it now--same for the duck leg confit. I wasn't going to get it this time, and then someone else in our party was ordering it, and I knew I would wish I had ordered it when it arrived at the table for him! The pappardelle was incredible; all of us ordered it! And then we got the maple ice cream and the passion fruit sorbet for dessert, and both were excellent. Terrific cocktails as always, and the best service! The most wonderful place to have a meal that somehow manages to feel both informal and homey and special and chic at the same time (and love the holiday decor)! The best start to vacation!

    A mistake on my part started off badly but turned into a wonderful meal with a wonderful server ( wish I had gotten her name) and a most delicious meal with melt in your mouth filet of beef. Warning!!! There is Bardea Food and Drink and Bardea Steak!! Make sure you know which one your reservation is for! Our server saved the day with delicious options to make for a complete meal explaining each dish to our party of four and timed each course perfectly. We had theater tickets so were aware of the time and arrived to our show in plenty of time. Turned into a great experience and will definitely be aware of which BARDEA we’re dining at next time! Any item on the menu will be a true culinary delight!!

    We started with the Small plates of Avocado and then the Salmon. The Avocado dish was divine...perfectly warm with tantalizing flavors beneath it. The salmon was really good but we weren't fans of the "crisp" that comes with it which is made from the skin...too fishy for our taste. That's a personal preference. I had the burger and my wife the Cacio e Pepe. Both were also excellent.
