About Paisani Food Truck
Paisani is an Italian-American food truck based in Boston, serving Greater Boston year-round. We take the Italian classics we grew up on and give them a Boston twist, using local ingredients and recipes that respect where the food comes from. Our menu centers on made-to-order sandwiches built on wicked thin, crispy chicken and eggplant cutlets, like the Drunken Parm with vodka sauce and fresh mozzarella, or the Eggplant Caprese with honey whipped ricotta, fresh basil and balsamic glaze. We also make sweet corn arancini, fried fresh and served over vodka sauce. Everything is prepped in our commissary kitchen and finished to order on the truck, so it's hot, fresh and fast even for a big crowd. The truck is out seven days a week from April through November and five to six days a week in the winter. We also cater everything from office lunches to private parties, with a live sandwich station or "Sunday Dinner with Paisani" family-style trays of meatballs, eggplant rollatini, sausage and peppers, and penne alla vodka.
Meet the owner

Matthew Minichiello & Ryan Palmer
Owner, Paisani Food Truck
Paisani was started by college friends Matt and Ryan, who founded the business while at UMass Lowell and launched it as an Italian food truck in Boston. The name comes from "paisan," meaning a fellow countryman, and that spirit shapes everything they serve: Italian-American classics made with local ingredients, generous portions and hospitality that makes every guest feel like family. Today Paisani brings made-to-order sandwiches and home-style Italian catering to offices, events and gatherings across Greater Boston.

When to Book
The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.
That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.
Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Boston, so booking early gives you the best selection.
