Paolo's Restaurant Review: It’s easy to fall in love with a place like Paolo’s. Its Georgetown location is right in the heart of things, and patrons often drift in from the sidewalk. The passing pedestrians are part of the entertainment; the other part is the snappy and trendy Italian food. It’s not classical, but somewhat Americanized, with such offerings as duck confit pizza with apple butter coulis and a pulled roasted chicken salad. There is a filet mignon with an asparagus side made with Gorgonzola and walnuts. The restaurant is so popular that you’ll probably wait but, in fine weather, enhanced seating means eating outdoors, an ideal option for people-watching. At one time Paolo’s had a higher profile locally, but now it has only two locations---a pity for those of us who love its lusty and unconventional fare and laid-back ambience. Also located at 11898 Market St., Reston, VA, 703-318-8920. |
