Paesanos has a special place in the hearts and memory for my wife and I, we returned for our anniversary dinner. Service was great provided by Landon; he’s very personable and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was a great portion size, and delicious (the Spinach Artichoke Dip is lowkey a personal favorite). At the end of our meal we had our picture taken by a photo-service the restaurant worked with, and that solidified a very special dinner for our anniversary. Thank you, Paesanos.
