PAOLO'S is a charmingly buzzy 50-seat scratch-kitchen and bar with a core menu of refreshed Italian-American, Mediterranean, and seasonal New England recipes reflecting Boston-based chef Paul Delios’ 40-year career.

His signature pizza crust, pasta combos and sumptuous entrées have always shined bright. Named by Boston Common Magazine in 2024 as one of Boston's best restaurants in the suburbs, with dinner and bar service Tuesday through Saturday, PAOLO'S is the first concept by boutique restaurant group Veloce Brands, LLC, founded by Delios and 25-year food and lifestyle writer, editor and communications director Jen Chase-Corwin (owner/creative director).

It wasn’t super busy so not noisy and our server had too much time to pay attention to us, but otherwise good.

Anthony's is friendly and warm, and has excellent food. It reminds me of the way restaurants used to be with the doorman, the well dressed greeter, and the tuxedo clad waiters. They treat you like they really appreciate you being at their restaurant. It is rather special. The sirloin steak was perfectly cooked and it was spectacular. We enjoyed our evening immensely.

Our first experience with Pots, our waiter Joe was great at explaining how everything works. The food was amazing. The broth base alone was delicious. Once we added our meats and vegetables, it took the flavor experience to a new level. Highly recommend. We will be back to eat here as often as we can.
