Nice looking new restaurant. Noisy due to the high ceiling and full with diners on Christmas Day evening. I highly suggest you make reservations. Great for large parties.Thiago was a very attentive server and polite. The food was fabulous and came out of the kitchen within 15-30 minutes. Large servings- so the entrees were worth the price. (Pictured- chic parm, Alfredo with steak, vodka red sauce pasta, cheese pizza, Tiramisu.) The owner stopped by the table twice, once to help clear the table. The hostess was very pleasant and helpful around the restaurant. You have to ask for their complimentary bread that was heated in the wood burning fireplace. We’ll be back!

This place was busy! I’m glad we made a reservation and I recommend getting one if you plan on being seated right away.
Drinks:
2 glass each of red and white wine.
Appetizer:
Caprese salad was good but not the best. The mozzarella was tasteless but the tomatoes were fresh. I loved that the balsamic glaze had a hint of sweetness.
Mains:
Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken was so so fresh and the cream was amazing. You have an option to add what protein you want to the pasta. The chicken paired well with the pasta.
The other pasta had steak in it. It was great just a little too much sauce. Regardless it tasted so fresh the steak was tender.
Dessert:
I normally don’t like chocolate on chocolate but we LOVED this. If we weren’t so full we would have finished this.
Overall I would most definitely recommend this spot to others.

Great food , environment, and service from all staff! Several options in the menu. We’ve had the carpaccio and bruschetta, can’t say which one we liked the most! As the main course we’ve had filet au pouvre and octopus, both cooked to perfection. To finish our meal, the banoffee was amazing, a must have!! We will definitely come back and try different options! We’ve heard the pizza is amazing! Thanks to the chef and all staff! Special thanks to our server, Gisela! Will see you again soon!

This place is AMAZING!!!! The service outstanding! Now the food…. As an appetizer we ordered the Mona Lisa pizza (there were 4 sharing the food) with catupiry stuffed crust. Then we got the family Filet Mignon with Alfredo sauce instead of the pomodoro (it was delicious), for dessert, they suggested a Dubai Chocolate pizza (pictured). It was INSANE good!! We will be back to try the other amazing dishes.

had dinner at Paparella and absolutely loved everything. From the cocktails to the appetizers, the main courses, and the dessert — every single detail was outstanding. The flavors, the presentation, and the quality were on another level.
The drinks were amazing, the starters were delicious, and the main dishes were impeccable. It was one of those meals that makes you want to come back as soon as possible.
A very special thank-you to Chef Junior, who prepared everything with extraordinary flavor and attention to detail. And we also want to thank our servers Thiago, Fran, Gisela, Thalita and Andrea for their exceptional service — kind, attentive, fast, and truly professional.
Everything was excellent. A wonderful dinner, incredible food, and a team that truly made us feel welcomed. We will definitely be returning! 10/10

The place is very pretty and clean! The service is very good! The fillet with peppercorns sauce is VERY good! The pizza is good as well! The only think it’s okay it’s the pasta. Could be homemade. Fresh pasta. And the tomato sauce taste like can , could be done in the house as well!! (:
The dessert tiramisu was good

The worst experience I ever had in a restaurant. The food is mediocre. Too much salt in all the dishes ordered. The booths are very tight and glued together, so if the customer behind you moves you move with him. I ordered a creme brulle that was watery, clearly the chef doesn’t understand about consistency. When I left the restaurant, I had the unpleasant to find my car blocked by an SUV parked in a compact space making it impossible for me to get into the car. I asked for help in the restaurant and the ignored me and said that the parking wasn’t their responsibility, that other cars had been hit there before. That I could just go in the passaenger’s side and leave. Oh, let’s not forget that I spent over $ 200 dollars to eat there.. I was a customer. I said I was gonna call the police and they just said go ahead and do it. It took me an hour to leave. But as soon as the police showed up (which was fast), 10 min later they found the driver. Btw, the restaurant was the only place opened on that location, meaning anyone parked there would be inside the restaurant. And they didn’t do anything till the police came. I really hope that whoever is reading this review think twice before wasting your time and money going to a lousy restaurant. NOT WORTH IT. If you want, I can recommend much better restaurants.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary here, and the food was absolutely delicious. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The only thing we noticed inside was that the booth felt a bit tight, making it slightly uncomfortable to get in and sit down.
Even though we paid for our dessert—as expected—we were surprised that, after confirming it was our wedding anniversary, we didn’t receive any written note or acknowledgment. It felt a bit insensitive, especially on such a special occasion. The atmosphere was a bit too loud.
In the parking area, there was someone watching the cars. Maybe the intention was to offer extra care, but it actually felt a little strange and gave us the impression that the area might be unsafe.
Overall, it was a good experience with amazing food and great service, but with a few details that could be improved.

We recently visited Paparella Trattoria and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was truly delicious and the service was outstanding.
We started with a carpaccio that was incredibly flavorful and well-prepared. The pizzas were spectacular — full of authentic taste and perfectly cooked. We also enjoyed an Italian beer, which was served ice cold and in its bottle, just as it should be.
What really made the experience stand out was the attention to detail. The staff offered us plenty of Parmesan cheese, olive oil directly from the bottle, and a variety of glazes and sauces to complement our dishes. Their attentiveness and knowledge of the menu made us feel very well taken care of.
To end the evening, we tried their desserts, which were simply delicious. The lava cake was absolutely outstanding — rich, warm, and perfectly executed.
Overall, Paparella delivered a genuine Italian dining experience with excellent food, great service, and thoughtful touches throughout. We look forward to returning soon!
