WOW!!!! 3 of us ordered the chicken Papazzio and it was AMAZING!!!! We all loved it! The other family members ordered different meals and it was just as delicious!
This place was delicious! My fiancé and I happened to be walking around looking for a place to eat and stumbled upon Papazzio. We were seated right away and our serve, Jose was so attentive. He gave us great recommendations. For our appetizer we shared the meatballs in marinara and it was cooked perfectly. The meatball was moist, dense, the sauce was so flavorful. It tasted like my Zia's sauce. For dinner I got penne alla vodka and my fiancé got the ravioli with bolognese. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the vodka sauce was flavorful, and I enjoyed the chunks of tomato. My fiancé said the ravioli was delicious, perfectly filled and the sauce was excellent. My fiancé got a homemade lemonade that was excellent, perfectly sweet and tart. I got an Aperol spritz and it was well balanced. Our server, Jose was so kind and attentive. We talked about life a little, and he mentioned his wife & family. We asked if he had any advice for us since we just got engaged and he gladly gave us some. While we live on Long Island, we definitely plan on coming back.
Food was good. Staff was nice. My only negative feedback is that I ordered spaghetti and they broke it into small pieces. That really irritated me. Each piece was an inch long, making it hard to stay on my fork. Breaking spaghetti is like a sin. The baked clams could of been more crispy on top but they weren't bad. Don't know if I'll order that again. Fried calamari with marinara sauce is tasty.
Wanted to rave about the service we had here. AMAZING. Just the most amazing wonderful service I have ever received. Darius K was our server and he made our first experience at this restaurant so amazing. His food recommendations were on point. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was so beautiful. It was the perfect night out. We will definitely be back. We tried the specials and was not disappointed. Potions were very generous I was able to have a second meal. Everything was very fresh.
My boyfriend and I came to this restaurant for restaurant week. The ambiance was very romantic, dim light with Valentine's Day decor. We first started out with some drinks, red sangria and mango margarita which was very good with a decent amount of alcohol. The bread brought was cold but the dipping sauce was unique. Server said it was made of chickpeas and olive oil. Our serve was AMAZING, very charming and attentive. The shrimp and scallop dish was delicious, just wish it had a little more seasoning but with pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese it was perfect. My boyfriend had the chicken palliard and he was very satisfied with his dish. He only wished the seasonal vegetables were seasoned.
I decide after Assumption Day Mass to have late dinner at this great Italian place! The problem with this area is finding a parking spot. Which takes a couple of passes. But it's worth it folks I had started a Yelp review a while ago but never finished it. Mea culpa I've ordered the baked clams as a starter and they are deliciously garlicky. Dom the owner, whom I've met before comes right over to say hello We chat about business, and he says I've been doing this for 32 years. He's 63 a baby. I tell him to stick with it. He buys me another Prosecco! A prince!! For the main course I order the chicken special. Chicken breast sautéed in white wine with mushrooms, prosciutto snd mozzarella. It comes and is tender and marvelous. Absolutely delicious. The wine sauce makes it truly special. With rice it's perfect It's quiet tonight, but it is late and the place is supposed to be closed, but hey not a problem. I see that there are a few younger middle aged couples here and a few patrons at the bar. My waitress is soooo attentive. It makes for a great experience Not sure about espresso at 9:34. Maybe. Ok yes! Great spot and highly recommended'n
My family and I have been ordering takeout from this place for the last 2 years. We do plan to have a sit down dining experience in the near future for sure. Papazzzio serves up delicious Italian fare like nobody's business. We have catered trays of chicken parmesan, chicken francaise and marsala, linguini and white clam sauce, pastas, stuffed mushrooms with vegetables and sausage. We have never gotten a bad meal here and I've eaten my fair share of great Italian food growing up in the Italian area of Corona Queens. This place is as authentic as it comes. Online ordering and dealing with the folks on the phone are easy and curbside pickup is a breeze. Check out the expansive menu offerings as well as the Gluten free options. Authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of Bayside on Bell Blvd. Buon appetito!!!
I just tried this amazing restaurant for the first time tonight and really loved it! I live in Manhattan and can find some excellent gluten free pizza at a few places but it's next to impossible to find a restaurant with as extensive as a menu as Papazzio's! I especially can't wait to come back and try the baked clams!!! Other than that incredibly exciting menu ( 95% can be gluten free!!) what really stood out was the chicken!! It was so flavorful, loved the sauce and the portions but especially the way it was perfectly cooked and prepared and how juicy it was, even after being in a take out container for that long of a trip! The food was pleasantly still warm by the time it was on my plate- no reheating necessary! Everything was packed beautifully and thoughtfully and it was ready and waiting exactly when they said it would be! Absolutely can't wait to come back and try even more amazing AND gluten free food here! It's especially nice to know I can relax and enjoy their food without worry about getting sick. Dominick has celiac and they are extremely careful .. a separate fryer, prep station etc and I heard in the restaurant they also have great gluten free breadsticks! For sure will be back again and again and wish I had heads about this gem years ago ( esp back when I lived in Queens!), but it is MORE than worth the trip! Thank you!!!!!
