As the Northshore’s most surprisingly swank neighborhood gem, Paolo's Cucina Italiana represents the rebirth of Executive Chef/Co-Owner Paul Delios' original location that delighted diners in nearby Charlestown throughout the early 2000s. Our menu features several old fan-favorites, with some of the same staff making and serving them.
Today, Paolo's takes pride in being the best destination restaurant where travelers are welcomed like regulars, and regulars get to feel far from home. (Even our reviews say we’re worth the drive.) Fresh pasta? Check. Creative cocktails? Also check. Super-special specials? Natch. (And did we mention the pizza? Missing that would be tragic.)

Executive Chef/Co-Owner
For more than 40 years, Chef Paul Delios has prepared Mediterranean dishes for fans who have followed him across Boston and beyond to his award-winning restaurants. This rebirth of his original Paolo’s serves nostalgic recipes and whimsical new riffs that show off just.how.good scratch cooking and an aged pizza crust can be.
Chef De Cuisine
Partners-in-shine for 20 years, Chef Rigo Cartagena has worked beside Chef Paul Delios since the original Paolo’s days in Charlestown, Mass., at Charlestown’s acclaimed Mezé, and as head baker for all three Boston-area Kane’s Donuts locations. While gifted with flour and sugar, you can thank Chef Cartagena for remembering the ins and outs of what made Paolo’s original Chicken Bana Stana recipe a flipping standout.
