This is a kitschy cool joint that has been around for many, many decades. Lots of old memorabilia,…read moreantiques, games, and anything else you can imagine from what looks like the 40's or 50's lining the floor and walls of this little place. These are not new refurbished items put there by some modern owner, they are directly from the time that they were made. Very cool, one of a kind place. They smoke and barbecue their own pulled pork and beef, and I will vouch that the BBQ pork sandwich is excellent. Definitely worth a stop for some road food, maybe a beer at the little bar, or just check out this one of a kind gem. Would've given it five stars, but it seems that a lot of the items on display there have not been dusted for a couple of decades. Other than that, awesome.

The flavor of my dinner was definitely homemade and something very special not your average Italian.

It was a fun experience and the restaurant had cute spots to eat it was all different rooms and fun decor

Paisano's on Broadway occupies a unique--and important--place in Richmond's dining landscape…read more Credit where it's due: Phil and Karen Gilardi were instrumental in elevating the town beyond pure fast-food dependence. They recognized early that Richmond sits on a corridor of movement--Chicago flowing north toward Lake Geneva, that Midwestern analogue to the Riviera--and made a legitimate attempt to create a stop where people could sit down, slow down, and share a meal. I still remember my first visit, back when Paisano's had maybe five tables. I was seated next to none other than Dan Rostenkowski, then Speaker of the House. That moment captured something about the place: it aspired to be part of a broader, more connected world than Richmond typically experiences. The concept has always been clear--family-style, approachable Italian, positioned as a step above casual dining. And to their credit, they've maintained consistency over the years. That said, the food itself lands squarely in the "acceptable" category. Not offensive, not memorable--reliably mediocre. It satisfies the requirement of a meal without ever quite justifying a detour. Yet here's the reality: within a five-mile radius, Paisano's remains the only place where you can reasonably take someone on a sit-down date without apology. That alone gives it staying power. Paisano's isn't trying to be extraordinary--and it doesn't quite get there. But it filled a vacuum when it arrived, and in many ways, it still does.

The waitress was in hurry even after I told her we have never been there. She didn't pickup that…read moreour eyes were still on the menus. I ordered the Mac Daddy burger and my wife got the house brat with no sauerkraut and with cheese sauce . We moved our seating to the bar and the bartender was really cool and friendly! It was too cold in the back left corner of the dining room. He took great care of us! The rest of the meal was delicious! The brat came on a pretzel bun and was much longer than a Johnsonville! The Mac Daddy smashed my hunger! It was grilled perfectly and the Mac was Deluxe! Initially, we were going to pass on this place after our first choice turned up to be closed for the day, but we are glad we didn't and we will be back again in the future!

The woman at the sandwich station hates her job. My sister brought the sandwiches to my house one…read moretime and they were great. I've tried getting sandwiches in person twice and have felt unwelcome both times trying to order a sandwich. If you don't like your job- quit. If you need more staff because you're busy- hire more. There was one person checking out ahead of me and they said "it's going to be a few minutes". So I politely waited to hand my papers to the women making the sandwiches. I was looking down at their cheese selection and out of the corner of my eye I see a hand shaking toward me. She did not say a word to me but I handed her my papers because she had an annoyed look her face while shaking her hand at me. I told her to cancel my order because I didn't do anything to deserve to be treated that way. We will not be back- I'm supposed this place is able to stay in business with the way they treat their customers. It feels like they're going out of their way to make us a sandwich. Find a new job.
