We love Pacino’s!! This is our go to place for Italian food and pizza. Warm friendly atmosphere with a great menu with variety and a fantastic wine list. You will always find the owner Frank greeting his guests and hustling to help his team. Live music and fun events are always on the calendar and there is a nice patio for outside dining.

We love this place! Every time we visit it's a great experience. We enjoy sitting at the bar and meeting new people over wine and dinner and listening to the live music. The food was great, and we really enjoy having the owner give us a good wine recommendation. If you haven't tried this place, DO SO!
Amazing food and and amazing staff. Their food tastes great and is at a great price. The portions are big and shareable. The pizza tastes from the East coast
The food was mediocre at best. We are not picky at all but we were very disappointed. I’ve lived in the area for years and I’ve always seen this restaurant and wanted to visit. We came for Valentine’s Day and we were given a limited menu. Which wasn’t ideal, but it was fine. I asked if there were any substitutions and I was told no substitutions whatsoever. So we placed our order with the limited selection. We sat at our table and saw at least 3 other tables given food that was not on the limited menu we were given. We asked again if we could order calamari (I had been planning to get it before we even came) and the waitress went to her manager and cleared it and we were able to get it. I’m still so confused why we weren’t able to get a different appetizer in first place while other tables ordered whole meals that weren’t on the menu. The bread was horribly stale. Was not warm, and just tasted like it had been sitting out for days. The entrees were okay. My husband got veal Milanese and I got lobster ravioli. Eh. Nothing to write home about but nothing big to complain about. Dessert was 2 chocolate dipped strawberries. Boring. We also first we’re going to sit outside and the waitress made a big deal about being cold. We ended up moving inside and she kept saying that she was so happy we moved inside because it was too cold outside for her. Overall, I felt we paid way too much for the “3 course meal” we got. And I’m still trying to figure out why we were given so much push back on ordering something I saw plenty of people getting. My only thought is they were regulars and were ordering alcohol. The waitress also kept commenting on how many people were leaving because of the limited menu. Which we did witness, but it was weird to have her tell us that essentially she knew it sucked. We would not return.
Walking into Pacino's, I knew that I was going to be pricey. The overall atmosphere screams \everything here is 15 or more!\ Obviously I'm being facetious, but that's kind of the feeling. I decided to try a pizza and a pasta dish, as those are usually good indicators of if it's a good Italian eatery. Being as honest as possible, the pizza was good; but I would not say more than good. The sauce, cheese, and crust all tasted good, and was all fairly proportionate. I'm unsure if it was just my experience, but after the second slice, I started tasting essence of dish rag; like they had just wiped the plate they served it on with a dish rag, and then put the pizza on a slightly damp dish. For the Shrimp Scampi dish, while the flavor was tolerable, the noodles tasted overcooked, along with the shrimp which made it tougher. The only other thing was the service. While it wasn't bad, I feel like the servers neglect the dining room, and focus more of their attention and time on the bar area. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's also no excuse. To be honest, I want to give them 3.5 stars, because I feel like they at least deserve that, but I cannot give them 4 stars unfortunately. The main tipping point was the pricing. Everything is priced like a higher end Italian restaurant (think Grimaldi's) but has quality that is comparable to Olive Garden. I think they would either need to lower their prices to match the quality, or raise the quality to match the prices.
