My fiancee took me there for the 1st time after we bought his truck on Sunday. I loved it so much we went back on Tuesday! Cozy place, flavorful food, great wait staff! I have not tried the pizza, but what we have had that was fabulous is: Lasagna, Chicken Francese, Broiled Haddock, Calamari, Fish Chowder, Ceasar salad. Wine was pretty good too....Kendall Jackson! I'm surprised about the negative reviews, but then again I did not get the pizza. But, the place is not a pizza joint....just sayin'. Definitely give it a try!!! read more

I just came from here great atmosphere, really sweet staff, great for all ages. My only exception is the food itself, the chicken olympia was very tasty as was the meatballs but my brothers order of fettuccine alfredo was far from tasty, or any taste of all. Very bland and unsatisfactory. read more

One of our favorite locally owned restaurants.. Enjoyed a delicious meal with friends last night. Our service was perfect.

First time here. Service was great and gave awesome recommendations. I loved that you get a side salad with your entree. Dressing was homemade and yummy. I had shrimp scampi, full of flavor. Big shrimp and added broccoli made the dish perfect. My husband had chicken Parmesan. Huge piece of chicken with nice amount of pasta. We both took some home. I had a cappuccino that came with a biscotti. So good. We don't live around there but i would drive the hour and half to go again. read more

Nice atmosphere for large groups. If you and a dozen coworkers want to go out and eat, drink, and celebrate you'll like the place. My favorite dish is chicken Olympia, and the apps are decent as well. We go a couple times a year. read more

I worked here for about a month. The food is not terrible. The food is not great. Surprisingly I agree how do you miss a pizza? The sauce is a little sweet I guess for my taste versus savory. Sorry to put it this way but it was a late one level above Applebee's where they're trying to make it a fine dining restaurant. It's a good place for an Applebee's or Chili's style meal both a little different Selections and cuisine. If you go ask for Melissa. The owners have a bad reputation for being overbearing. I think they're good guys it's just hard running the restaurant business but I know they're both good people. read more

Good menu - food tasted great, service was good, atmosphere was nice - portions were very big - enough for two even! The only negative comment at all was the music wasn't that great! We went between lunch and dinner time so it was probably more noticeable than if it's super busy - but it was like being at a weird Kenny G concert. Not a reason to skip out though - definitely worth putting up with the music for! We will be going back for sure ! read more

Wonderful dinning experience! My husband and I celebrated our anniversary there tonight and the food was awesome, the atmosphere relaxing and the service was amazing! Definitely our new go to place! Thank you to Charissa, our server who made our evening very pleasant. Such a very up beat warm person. We left smiling! :) read more

Excellent! Attentive and pleasant service, staff is dressed nicely, food is always delicious, portions are generous, and prices are moderate. Highly recommended! read more

My wife and I love this restaurant. The brick oven pizza is amazing and 1/2 price in the lounge on Tuesday and Saturday. We have tried almost the entire menu and love it all. The staff are friendly and attentive and the owners frequently come out to interact with the customers. The enormous fireplace is warm and inviting and the decor is unique and classy. The place is spotless and the prices very reasonable. The only criticism I have is that in the winter there is no heat in the bathrooms, they are clean but cold read more

In from out of town and saw it had 4 stars not sure where these people have eaten before but every plate was tasteless at best . The fact that they sell there own sauce just amazes me . The wine was colored vinegar so they should get a bunch of new choices . Brought out the wrong dinner for me and didn't even offer a discount on it . Well live and learn . Wasn't trying to be mean about this but it really wasn't good . read more

This was my first time coming to brunch here. The food, drinks and music were phenomenal; but the service was definitely not up to par. It took quite a bit of time I'd say at least 10 minutes or more every time we ordered beverages. Honestly I'd give you guys about an 8/10. Also the servers name was Amy. read more

Excellent food and staff. Everyone here cares about the quality product that they put out. Creative chefs and bartenders make the dining experience wonderful. 10\10 would recommend. read more

Overrated! Stays busy based on lack of great restaurants in town the pizza is okay...service is okay but was I that impressed ? No!!!

Best family dining in Keene! The wait staff knows the regular's names. Warm and friendly. The bar is a bit loud but it's a bar. Sunday brunch is great. read more

This is the first place we ate when we arrived in Keene - poor choice The food is not great at all - I literally could have cooked the food in my kitchen, and it would have came out better. We had a pasta dish and a seafood dish - they were both subpar. The pasta was way too al dente. I usually like it al dente, but just not cooked thoroughly. The people seemed nice, and the atmosphere seemed OK, but the food and the PRICE on the menu threw me for a loop. If I had known the quality ahead of time, we wouldn't have eaten there. read more

We absolutely love this place for a date night. The food is beyond excellent and authentic and the wait staff is so friendly. I often recommend this place any time I hear someone mention the Olive Garden. Why bother when a better restaurant is moments away. We drive almost an hour to eat here. Wonderful wine as well!! read more

Brought my mom here who drove an hour just for their chicken francaise, the food is always good, but the service on the other hand was awful. We literally waited 1+ hours for our APPETIZERS, and after she brought our dinners she never came back til we had been done for 20 mins, with completely empty drinks. Horrible horrible service read more

Our experience was very poor. We ordered prime rib dinners with one ordered going back 3 times. Finally received order after everyone was done. The other order was also received and it was 90% fat and grizzle. The waiter was apologetic but did nothing to solve the issues. This place has been deleted from our list of places to dine. Maybe my pets would be pleased? read more

Returning to Keene last night me and a group of friends went here. This place was known as having some of the best food in Keene when I lived there years ago. I ordered the pizza and it was one of the worst pizzas I have ever ordered. The waitress was very good, and said she would send the owner, who was working up front. He never came over, even though the place was pretty empty. I then got a plain pasta with sauce and I swear it egg noodles. Papagallos has really gone downhill and we plan on never returning. Its sad, it was great. Now it uses very cheap ingredients and overcharges you for them. read more

Came here for their Sunday brunch. Excellent food, hearty portions, and the owners Tony & Angelo are true gentlemen!

We recently discovered this restaurant and loved everthing about it! Can't wait to get back!!

My husband and I have been on-and-off patrons of Papagallo's for 10+ years. Over the years have been ups and downs....basically, the place is inconsistent (not sure if this is a management issue?) We've discovered that it's best to never go there for lunch....the food at dinnertime is always better. Also, the wait staff is very variable. Sometimes they're great and other times terrible. read more

First off, the decor is terrible and confusing. Then you look at a menu that obviously had very little thought put into it. Everything has marinara that tastes burnt and old. The servers look very unorganized and not very knowledgable. It feels like everything is just scooped on a plated and thrown in the oven. The only thing that didn't make me feel like I was gonna be sick was the pizza which was made right in front of you with a nice brick oven. Overall not impressed and wonder how they are still in business. read more

This is a great family owned sort-of Italian restaurant. I've been going to this restaurant for more than 10 years. The food is consistent. The portions are large. The thing that's really got me is that the last two times I've been there, the wine seems to be watered down. I don't care if they want to charge me more, but don't do that it tastes awful read more

Fancy smancy place for special events or parties or yet jus. Family & friends! Best Italian food ever! Probably 1 of the expensive place in Keene but it worth going! read more

Great Italian food, good atmosphere, good service, love going there for birthdays and other special occasions.

Food is great, service is lacking. The portion sizes are HUGE, everyone had leftovers to take home, and it was delicious. But the food didn't all come at once, and one of the kids was waiting 10 minutes while others were eating (at least bring the kids' food first!). The waitress shared more than we were comfortable with about her personal life (including expletives, and yes, I had two kids with me). Maybe a better placenfor adults only? read more

Two weeks ago, we had our son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Papagallos' Restaurant. Having eaten there before, I knew the food would be an assortment of truly, delicious Italian dishes. What added to the great food was the attentive and accomodating service. We were made to feel like family, and any special, personal touches that we requested for our son and daughter-in-law were honored and made even more special by all of the staff and the owner. We were not kept within a strict menu selection, guest allegeries and special needs were taken seriously and addressed with care and importance, and everyone was treated like a special guest - even though the main restaurant was full. Our room was tastefully decorated, our guests felt special and honored, and we could not have been more pleased. A wedding is a very important and extraordinary event, and everyone at Papagallos made us feel very welcome and very special. Many thanks read more

I have been several times over the years and I have never been disappointed. Their brunch is wonderful. Dinner is always delicious. They have very imaginative cocktails. They wait staff is consistently attentive, friendly and fun. read more

I was going to visit family in Keene. My grandmother emailed me just to tell me how I must try this place because they have the best seafood pizza in the world. As a point of reference, there are few things my grandmother gets excited about. Anyway, I set off to try the world's best pizza. Before I do that, I need to wait with my family for 15 minutes before the waiter takes our order. He did not even bring our drinks. We order the pizza, and I order the antipasto salad. So another 20-30 minutes goes by (if you are keeping count, 45 minutes for food), we still have no food and our drinks are empty. We ask for refills, waiter brings one glass at a time to tables around us, so apparently he is nervous about carrying multiple glasses on a tray. Anyway, the food comes shortly before we were preparing to eat our shoes. The antipasto salad was an interesting concept, though very little lettuce and way to full of salty meat, cheese, and olives. This place really loves salt. This would be a good salad if it had 1) more lettuce 2) less Feta. Anyway, the seafood pizza arrives. I eagerly take a slice, ready to try the "best pizza in the world." I ate two bites and I was over it. It was WAY too salty. Now mind you, my family has eaten this pizza many, many times at this restaurant and they know how it is supposed to taste. So I state it is too salty. Note there are eight slices in this pizza for $16,and we ate 3.5 slices. We summon our waiter and the conversation goes something like this. Me: Hi, this pizza is very salty. Waiter: Oh, well I can go check with the kitchen and see what is going on Me: ok, great Waiter returns Waiter: I talked to the cook and they said they were rushing through it and may have added too much salt. Me: Ok, well is there going to be some type of adjustment to the bill since the cook has essentially admitted to oversalting the food? Waiter: Um let me go check Me: ok Waiter returns again Waiter: Well, actually I talked to the head chef and he said they do not add any salt to the pizza. *If you are keeping track, person who made it said they oversalted it, and once we asked for a price adjustment, were told by a different person no salt is used* Me: Ok, well we are not going to eat the rest of this pizza, so will you please ask the manager to come over Waiter: Sure Manager: I hear the pizza is too salty? Family member: Yes. We eat this pizza all the time and it is normally a delicate balance between white wine and garlic, but I am still trying to get the salt taste out of my mouth. Manager: I am sorry, maybe it was the clams that are too salty? I can make you another pizza. *After waiting 45 minutes, why do we want another pizza? Family member: It could be the clams. But we are not interested in taking this home or having another pizza. We are not asking for anything off the total bill, but the pizza should be adjusted. Manager: Ok, well I will make an adjustment *five minutes later* Manager: I took five dollars off your bill. Us: Thanks Quite frankly, we were ready to leave at this point as we waited forever for everything. We just said thank you and left. We are not selfish people, we did eat some of the salty pizza. But since we left half the pizza, we should have received $8.00 off. Instead, we were given a petty five dollars off. To me this says, sorry you did not like your food but we are not going to do anything about it. I would only eat here again if I was forced to. Even if the kitchen admits they botched your order, the story will change once you ask for a price adjustment, and management will do very little to ensure your repeat business. They may be busy for now, but over time poor quality food and response will drive away your customers. read more

Used to be the only decent Italian place around but competition have entered the market and this place is now distant third. Very Italian-American and 1970s kind of menu. Staff plainly don't know Italian culture -- asked for cappuccino for a guest who insisted upon it (a breakfast coffee, really) and stipulated no cinnamon but chocolate if available; what arrived was Hershey's syrup on top! Have to say I was aghast. read more

I liked one of the specials they had however I don't recall the name of it. I know here was lobster on some type of dough or something. It was delicious. I have liked some of their pasta dishes. One highlight one can't get the "happy birthday" theme song out of their heads. ;) I've also been to the brunch. Holy food. Lots to choose from so there is no reason to say the variety is lacking. :) read more

This establishment has horrible service and mediocre food. KHS prom was last night and my sister and her friends (as well as many other KHS students) had reservations. Their reservation was at 6pm and they were on time and by 7:30pm they had still not gotten their meals. An HOUR AND A HALF and still no food. If students were not at prom by 8pm they could not attend, just to put that out there. The staff were unapologetic and my sister paid for her meal before she even got her food. The food, when it finally came out, had to be boxed up (by the students, the staff didn't even box it up for them) and all the kids had to eat their subpar meals in their limo, rushing to make it to prom. The staff did not discount or compensate them, even though it took almost TWO HOURS for their dinner. As someone who works in the restaurant industry, I would have been mortified if I was their server and would have compensated their whole meal. Yes, it was prom and the restaurant was probably very busy, but the managers and staff knew it was prom and should have prepared their staff accordingly. Of course these kids are young and stressed that they won't make it to prom, so they paid for this horrendous meal, but if I were them, I would have walked out. read more

We went here for my daughters 21st birthday with a party of 11. Never disappointed!! Food is excellent, waitress was excellent! Tons of food! 3 appetizers, 11 entrees, and several drinks for each and the bill was just a little over $200. We love this restaurant!!!! We go here every time we see our daughter in college!! Cannot say enough good things about the food!! Very enjoyable evening!! read more

I took my 14 year old daughters softball team here, along with a group of parents here for dinner on a Saturday night. I called at 4:00 that afternoon for a reservation for 22 people, but we showed up with 27. They easily adjusted our seating. The staff was fantastic. We had a team of three servers, led by Josh, who were wonderful. We mostly ordered pizzas, but there were a few chicken Parms thrown. The food came out fast and it was very good. The team had a great time and we were glad we chose this place. read more

This is a great place to eat - the owners are great and truly care about their customers. You can't go wrong with much of anything on the menu, although the seafood seemed to be the real deal. I had the chicken and sausage Luciano which was worth every penny. Good price, great value, and a good meal experience. read more

Great local place, try the homemade house dressing and Chicken Olympia, my personal favorite. Warm atmosphere and friendly staff every time.

Surprisingly good for Greek Italian food. Sunday brunch is great. The selection is wide varied and good. Owners and wait staff are great.

The food was less than mediocre and the service was slow. The hostess was wearing a low-cut shirt and constantly texting.
