PauloLuigi Ristorante Italiano

Dear PauloLuigi,
First I have to say that I love your motto: «Where good people and great food come together.» What an excellent statement to have and I love that it adorns your business cards and menu.
We have always driven by this place and for months I’ve been dying to check it out. Italian is probably one of my favorite foods, I think because its just so rich and comforting. ;) One random evening a couple weeks ago, we finally made it over.
Your restaurant is very nice and elegant; nice tables, very cool abstract art on the walls, and a nice wine display closet. The bar is beautiful too, all brick and reminiscent of Italian architecture. We sat down and were promptly greeted by our server (who was also the hostess/​greeter person — this girl could MULTITASK!!).
We decided to skip on an appetizer and just order our meals. I wasn’t that hungry and I knew that I wanted pasta, which is always really filling. Also, the garlic bread you serve beforehand is just one of the best garlic bread’s I’ve had. :)
I ordered the Fettuccine Portobello, which came with portobello mushrooms sauteed with shallots and garlic, in light olive oil and marsala wine. OMG, soooo good. I expected the sauce to taste a little more marsala-​y, but it was really good none-​the-​less. It also came with a salad, which was nice. The bf ordered the Baked Lasagna, which was deliciously layered with meat and a blend of cheeses.
By the time we got halfway through our plates we were both so stuffed we had to take the rest home! Which also meant there was no room for dessert. Oh well, next time. :)
I want to give a shout-​out to the girl who was our server/​hostess/​greeter/​door holder (when we left). She was just amazing and really knew the menu well and what items to suggest.
So glad to have found a good Italian restaurant so close to our home. It was about time! ;-) We’ll be back often.
Best Regards,
