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. At his former national award-winning restaurants (Paolo's, Meze and Kane's Donuts) Delios earned acclaim for his mountain-size heart and multi-cuisine mastery. 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). Come for favorites. Come for specials. (And did we mention the pizza?)
