Paisano's Pizza

Well it had been a while since we ate here, and it was still as awesome as the first time, they are known for their pizzas, but we opted for a nice dinner style meal. They are also popular for their dinner rolls. The server Samantha was awesome we didn't have ask for refills at all. The food came out hot ,fresh, and tasted amazing!! One of my top 5 for good Italian food here in Gainesville. They have several locations in town but this was one of the original spots, now they are also in several other cities in North Central Florida.

Best pizza! Really great crust and love the generous toppings. Our favorite is pepperoni, meatballs and mushrooms. My mom and dad loved the veggie pizza when they were in town. I also love the pasta and salads. Basically love everything I have tried. Glad they are close to my house.

Dawson and Liz were awesome, some of the best drinks I have had in a while. I love the atmosphere, very family and casual friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice place to take the family or just come for a nightcap.

One of the best and most dependable restaurants in town. The food is very good and they do a great job of following special requests/instructions. Staff is always friendly and inviting.

I always go to get their pizza. It's always hot and nom. 😀 Only gripe I have is...management needs to watch the student employees more closely to make sure that they're not trying to close early while customers are still present. Open til 10 means open til 10 not before. If a customer walks in the door at 9:55, well...yah I know. But you have to serve them. That's just the way it goes. I've worked a number of restaurants in my life and at every one we'd get reprimanded if we tried to stack chairs or close sections before then, and NEVER near customers. Only in closed sections far away. This happens quite a bit at Hunters Crossing. I've myself arrived more than an hour before closing and by 9:30 they're stacking tables loudly right next to me and I'm wondering if I should be sheltering my food from any particulates possibly made airborne by the rapid way they're flipping those chair legs. Not to mention the guilty feeling this puts upon you making you wonder if they're mad at you because you haven't finished by 9:30 and made your way out the door so that they can leave and get that all so important party or something. You get this "cats away the mice will play" kind of feeling whenever it happens - like management isn't present the day that they're trying that. Kids want to be treated like adults but they like to take shortcuts in responsibility which means that we adults have to still watch over their shoulders anyway. Management should check security cams from home near closing time to catch this. (A lot of restaurants should do this in fact. It's not isolated to just Piesanos. Students pull this sort of thing everywhere they work.) Teach student workers that the SOP manual always comes first, not them. If they can't handle that...there's the door.
