Paul's Of New York Restaurant

Ate here tonight with friends for the first time and I'll definitely be back. Restaurant and bar clean and inviting, staff friendly and didn't mind answering questions, drinks and food wonderful! Best Carbonara I've ever tasted, I wanted to lick my plate!

Amazing! Good tasting Italian fare. Good service! I truly appreciate Paul's cooking. 18 years of service in wilson. Stop by we will be here many times

We have done take out pizza couple times now after recommendations from some locals. Last night we sat at the bar and had an appetizer, antipasto and pizza. Love the bar area, it's a good size separate from the main dining room so it's cozy and quiet with some booth tables for sit down seating. Nice selection of wine and spirits while not being overkill, with friendly attentive and busy bar staff. Pizza has been excellent every time, and consistency is important. They pile on the toppings and they are flavorful and fresh a top a thin NY style crust. We ordered mozzarella sticks and it was an ample portion of six sticks that were fried to perfection. Seen some pictures of the marinara sauce online and it didn't look great, however the dipping sauce for the mozz sticks was thick and delicious so thinking the photos just aren't doing justice. Got the antipasto for two and it was also well presented with a small bed of romaine iceberg mix and a selection of ham, salami and cheese, With some tomato slices, cucumber, sliced black olive and pepperoncinis. Dressing is served on the side which is nice. Honestly the appetizer, salad and the complimentary basket of bread was enough of a meal, but we managed to tough it out and plow through a slice or two of pizza as well. The rest came home. Thinking we do need to come back for dinner and actually try some of the entrees. 2:00 and white linen napkins from sneak peeks into the dining room. If everything is done to the same level of quality has what we've had so far it could be a real keeper. Also met the owner, Paul, who's a good looking hard working guy 😉. Bar area is a local hangout and regular stop for Wilsonites, as several groups were chatting with each other and staff.
