The saga of PAGLIACCI'S

Derek and Mary re-introduced us to Pagliacci's. We hadn't gone for years since there was always a lineup. And there was a lineup the first time we tried even though it was 5:30! So we headed to the Irish Times pub. Then we heard they took reservations at 5:30 but only at 5:30...alas, only for parties of 6 or more. But we were assured we'd get a table on a weeknight at 5:30 so Take Two: Pagliacci's...success!

We were impressed by the low prices, great food, and fun bistro atmosphere...very much like a French bistro where you are crowded in but it works.

We will return for things like a portion of fabulous lasagna ($12.50) that only Jim could finish easily and reviews like:
"I've eaten lasagna all over the world and this is the best I've ever had.” - Peter C. Newman (1986) and Mel Gibson (1989) agrees.

And Mary treated us so even better...thanks, Mary!
