About Aldo's Restaurant - Block Island, RI
"When dad first started the bakery, we used to go up and down the docks as kids selling pastry from the pans. These are my brothers and sisters."

Anna and Steve Papa started a family tradition with a small pizzeria and sub shop on Block Island. Baking and cooking has long been a family tradition, starting with Anna’s father, Aldo, and her mother Maria, who helped develop the idea of the Block Island’s first pizzeria. As the family grew, the restaurant grew with it.

Now, Aldo’s Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant on Block Island has been serving delicious Italian Specialties since 1977! Aldo’s prides itself on our commitment to quality, freshness and customer satisfaction. Aldo’s holds a commitment to providing great tasting Italian and American specialty cuisine for years to come.
