"The last time we visited Paisan's, it was fantastic. We were fortunate to secure a table. However, on our most recent visit, we discovered that the restaurant has been sold and is now transitioning from Italian to Himalayan cuisine. The old Italian menu was still available, but with some items crossed off and a promise that they could still prepare those dishes. The restaurant was nearly empty, with only one other couple dining. It seemed like they were trying to use up any remaining Italian ingredients before fully switching to their new menu. It may be a great new spot in the future, but don't expect the same level of quality for Italian food."

Decent food, large portions, service was a little slow but it was Valentine's Day and slammed. W we not rushed even though they were very busy and service was good.

I was persuaded to come here, not knowing it was located in Cary. In general, it was just average. When we inquired about the Veal Sinatra dish, the waiter's response was simply that it is made with veal - not very helpful. There are better Italian options in Cary.
