Paulo`s Italian Trattoria in Belleville

From the outside this place is very nice. The servers were great and very accommodating as we were a large group(15-20 people) and a few of us has food allergies/sensitivities. However the food was a bit pricy for what you get and for my taste it was a little bland. But for the rest of the people in my party they enjoyed it. All in all it was a good place for a large crowd.

Amazing pizza! Enjoyed my order and will be returning !

I have eaten here servers times the food is alway great . The staff is friendly and helpful with selections. They have a great menu to choose from, the prices are fair. I definitely would recommend them .

This place came as a surprise pitstop on our way back home. We have been received very hospitably. The atmosphere is nice and warm, busy with regular locals, a good sign. The food was delicious, lots of options. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

A strange evening. A reserved table for 7 with a great view into the kitchen. I guess our waitress forgot to tell us the specials. We only figured that out when another waitress yelled it out to the customers at another table from 8 ft away. The waiter for another table felt the need to kick my chair or brush by me everytime he passed. Waitress had to check if they had steak, and said they didnt have musssels for the seafood linguini. The seafood linguini did come eventually with mussels. Wood fired pizzas were ok, but a wet/soggy bottom. Not good enough at 20-25 $ each. The linguini cream sauce was like water. Some of the linguini was hard and stuck together. At $30 a plate, thats dissappointing. Overall, not really that good. Kind of disappointing.There are better options in Belleville for Italian. Ps. Flies everywhere

Loved the atmosphere and service was excellent. We had the mussels and it was very tasty. We also had the steak and it was done to perfection. The pasta that was served with the steak was a bit bland but overall a nice little restaurant to visit. There is also a courtyard that opens in the Spring so I will definitely return to experience that.

Very charming restaurant with amazing service and food! We will definitely go again!

Good food and ambience in a lovely old building downtown. Service is very good and prices are reasonable. Looking forward to warm weather to try their patio at the rear of the building!

Honestly, if I could put no stars, I would. The food was not good at all. I ordered linguine Alfredo and it was the worst I ever tasted. I had frozen meals better than that. To make the experience even worst, the service was also bad. This the worst Italian food I ever tasted and it was over priced.

Tasty food in a European-like street. Service was great! Will be revisiting whenever in Belleville!

Maybe the best pizza I have had in years. The dough was perfect. And I loved the atmosphere and service.

Love the atmosphere, food is delicious, friendly staff. I'll be a return customer.

The food was okay. The rack of lamb was very tough. Not sure how they managed that. Not much to choose from in Belleville. For the same money we would have had a much better dining experience and meal in Vancouver. This was our fourth time there, but most likely will not be back. I could have actually cooked the same meal much better at home.

This lunch experience was exceptional from the menu choices to the food preparation and presentation to the service. Eric was exceptional and he really has the customer in mind. Great at his job!!

My wife and I went out for our 6th year anniversary to Paulo's. It was a great choice! The food was delicious from apps to dessert. Our server was polite and courteous. The wood fired pizza was fantastic, as close to a pizza from Naples as you can get. If you like Italian food and wine then you will like this place. Like they say go for the food stay for the wine!

It's quite good in flavour, but charging $4+ for gluten free options is unreasonable. Most places dont even charge for GF pasta anymore, and I've never seen a GF pizza charge of more than $3. I really wish there was more plant based options. If you're vegetarian you're going to easily find an option, but if you're lactose intolerant or dairy free, you'll quickly run out of options. If you are WFPB you are totally out of luck! 🤷🏼‍♀️We were upstairs where it was quiet and calm, nice atmosphere. Waitress was lovely, especially in helping me try to pick out a meal. Told my partner, I really did enjoy the meal but I would rather not return due to the option issues for me and the additional cost to feed me. We paid about $29 for a small plate of pasta (linguine alfredo) for me.Giving 4* over 3* because a bunch of these issues wont affect others. My BF enjoyed his calamari and pizza.

Wonderful service and atmosphere. Their wood fired pizzas were delicious. Would definitely return.

Overall food was okay not great. The seafood pasta were good. The Primavera pasta didn't taste much so would not recommend. The fried calamari were fresh but it was missing a bit of spices. We took 3 pizzas and 2 out of 3 were ok. The place is really nice but would not go back again for the price.

Very nice patio in the back. Great service. Had an eggplant parm that was delicious. Lots of free parking in the area on the weekend. Farmers market is short walk away

I had the pizza it was really good. They had a wood burning stove. Italian food is not my first choice, so my perspective could be off. The seafood pasta was better.

Have always loved this restaurant, the atmosphere is relaxing, service top notch, the food is always delicious and the Tarfutos are my favourite dessert anywhere in town! Visiting in the summer months is even better when they are able to open the front windows up to the patio! Highly recommend this restaurant for an enjoyable experience!

We happened upon Paolo's Trattoria and were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is a little "cheesy" but fun at the same time. My friend lamb was the best he has ever eaten (and he eats alot of lamb!) and my pasta was good. But by far the BEST and I mean BEST part was our server Kim. She was extremely personable, professional, friendly and witty. Her recommendations were on point and she maintained that hard to find balance between professionalism and a down to earth feel. We would return simply to have Kim as our server!

Love the ambiance of the garden courtyard, you feel like you are on vacation in Europe!The staff was really helpful. Food was fantastic! I had the calamari and it was soooo tender and melt in your mouth wonderful, so fresh, honestly some of the best I've had no matter what restaurant or what city I've had them in. The closest ive had to sea side fresh! I'd highly recommend! My partner got the caesar salad and it was massive, love the croutons!I had the steak as my main and got it just the way I like it. :) It felt like a mini holiday, we are coming back again for sure!

Going to have the 8" wood fired pizza... they have home made bread buns, which are always a welcomed touch! Good quiet place during lunch time. One thing to note, watch out for the bottom of the chair backrests as they catch in belts/rear pant buttons, etc. Cheers

Amazingly unique and wonderful atmosphere. We went there last night and we NEEDED dinner to be great after a really long week. They didn't disappoint and it made the start to the weekend so much better. The flavours are creative and the quality was definitely perfect. Local ingredients and fresh tasting salads and veggies. Who knew tomatoes could taste this good on a cold Jan night? The salmon was perfect and chicken parm was so good, I would love to try and figure out how to make that sauce but maybe I'll just go back and save some time. In the days of generic food places, this place stands out and I'm thankful for it. Local owners who really try. Service was great too! Hats off!

Delicious food. Classic possible a little dated on the decor and great service. The experience was great overall and we will be returning.

Had dinner at this amazing Italian restaurant in Bellville. Great service, good ambience.The pasta was splendid. I had the Alfredo Linguine. It had a great flavour with subtle hits of Onion and herb. The pizza was alright. Definitely reccomend the pasta.
