About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
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.

    Food was amazing. Portions are generous. Wait staff was attentive. Owner is present and friendly. We went for birthday dinner for my husband and will be back again. The bruschetta and fra diavolo were some of the best we’ve ever had!!!! Also had stuffed mushrooms which basically had a mini crab cake on top. Everything was cooked to perfection!
