Great food, pasta was great. It's best to make reservations. It gets pretty hot in there so wear something light. There are mainly chairs only saw one booth side.

This place lives up to the name!
Pretty semi-classy(?) vibes with very attentive host. The service was exceptional and the food was exquisite as well.
We ordered the short braised ribs and the seafood fettucine for the two of us and the portions were large enough to fill the both of us. Very good and my favorite were the ribs!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Oh wow, can't believe I never done a review here. One of my favorite restaurants. Its s really a 5 star establishment. I order the same thing every time. Chicken Paradiso, calamari and garlic prawns. All the appetizers are top-notch. for some reason today my chicken Paradiso was way off beat. It was done totally different as if they change the recipe or the cook. This is the first time we ever had to ask for salt and pepper. At least three of our meals were lacking season. They don't offer bread anymore unless you order it. I hate to see one of my favorite places changing. It was so different today. We left food on our plates today which is unusual. My friend ordered a beet chicken salad that look really good. She took two bites and left the rest. The beets taste like they've been soaked in really strong vinaigrette for days.
I know, sometimes things change but please make sure the cooks are on the same page. I was so ready for my meal today as soon as I seen it, I knew something was different. The plates are not cheap so you guys really need to bring the bread back. That was a really nice perk added to your meal. I'm not giving up on this place but after so many years I think it's time to change my meal. Maybe pizza or just appetizers next time. I still love this place. The vibe is great and classy.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 16, 2024
Our table for 5 was ready right when we arrived. Very attentive and patient staff! We celebrated my sister's 21st birthday here with a Saturday evening dinner. The restaurant was packed but they sat us right next to the window with a great view!
We ordered calamari, Brussels sprouts and Caesar salad as appetizers. All were flavorful and perfectly cooked. For entrees, pizza, pasta and prime rib! The seafood pasta is one of the best pastas I've ever had. We were so full by the end of the night!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

I have always heard such amazing reviews about Paradiso! I am so happy I dined here last night with one of my close friend. We both decided to order their baked ravioli and seasonal squash ravioli. Oh boy both were so good! I'm still thinking about their squash ravioli. The sauce was tangy, velvety, and just so bomb! Ahhh so happy, I wait to come back soon!
Our server Caroline was the sweetest person ever! She provided so many good recs and was on point with her service. When I come back I want Caroline has my server again! Such an amazing experience overall!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

I love coming here and our daughter and son-in-law wanted to take us here for my belated Mother's Day dinner and we found a parking space right in front.
We didn't have reservations and luckily on a Monday night, we were able to get a table for 4. We had the fried calamari and the portion was hearty and delicious, then each couple shared a mixed green salad. We ordered the beef shortribs which our son-in-law wolfed down, daughter had the linguine and clams, hubby had the petrale sole which was a bit on the salty side, and I ordered the fruitti de mare which was humongous but unfortunately had a bit too much white pepper. So we took it home and will add more linguine and sauce to dilute the kick to it. For dessert, we shared two scoops of delicious spumoni! Service was very attentive but maybe the petrale and fruitti de mare was a bit off tonight.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Sep 19, 2021Previous reviewThis is my first time back to Paradiso since the pandemic and we had a great time celebrating our friend's birthday! I reserved a table for 4 at 5:30 pm on Saturday night on Open Table for outdoor dining and annotated that it was our friend's birthday.
The outdoor dining area is located in the parking lot and it is spacious and they have the tables spaced out and heat lamps are available. The server, Jesus was attentive and friendly. We started off with calamari fritti and then hubby and I split a mixed salad. We ordered the Chicken Paradiso, Pasta Bolognese, Salmon and Shortribs. I tasted the salmon and enjoyed my shortribs as both were tender. For dessert, hubby and friend decided to skip dessert while the birthday boy ordered his favorite: Affogado and I had the Pear Ginger sorbet. What a way to end the celebration. Our friend didn't want the staff to acknowledge his birthday and we didn't push it.Jan 2, 2020Previous reviewHas it been 4 years since my last review? Came here with a friend and we had lunch. He ordered the garlic prawns which were delish and for his entree, he had the petrale sole. I ordered the fried calamari and organic kale salad, trying to be half healthy. The fried calamari was crispy but little soggy from the oil. It was a good portion but I wish it wasn't soggy. The kale salad was good and hearty and I had to take the rest home. For dessert, we had coffee and he ordered the vanilla bean gelato with Ghiradelli chocolate and I had the coconut almond crunch gelato and you could taste the coconut pieces! All in all, it was a good lunch with good company! Service was attentive and friendly.
Nov 14, 2015Previous reviewWe had a gathering with our neighbors and the food and service were very good and we all had a great time. They served us each a blueberry scone which was delicious. Some of the items we ordered were salmon benedict, souffle pancake, prime rib sandwich, kobe burger, breakfast pizza and shortrib hash with eggs. All were very hearty and tasty.
Mar 4, 2014Previous reviewWe had birthday brunch there this past Sunday and we made reservations and the food was good and atmosphere fantastic! There was no problem getting a table and we didn't have to wait longer than 5 minutes. We ordered the chicken panini, seafood louie, salmon benedict, florentine benedict (with spinach), and chicken enchilada.

Cool old school vibe at this restaurant. Excellent service throughout our meal! Drinks were delicious and they have a good wine list.
Food was good. Good flavors and generous portions. Had the shrimp appetizer and the ravioli for my main. Solid food, but wasn't completely blown away. Bread was a bit stale.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 2Business owner information

Paradiso is a go to spot for my family whenever we're celebrating special occasions. We've been here for everything - birthdays, graduations, etc.
The restaurant is located on the corner of the main street. While they have a small lot, it's often full so we just end up parking in the neighborhood or in the nearby public parking lot by Safeway about a block away. There's lots of metered street parking around as well.
The restaurant is bigger than it seems when you first walk in. I recommend making a reservation as their waiting area is small and fills up quickly. I love that they have an open kitchen so you can see them make your food.
Service is always great here. The servers are always so patient and helpful, especially for our family who has specific dietary restrictions and allergies. They're always happy to accommodate and there's never any issue. Along with the main server, there's always a couple of other staff helping to pick up plates promptly, fill up waters, etc.
The food is usually pretty good too! I usually go for the roasted chicken and it's always got great flavor. I've also gotten the ravioli before - definitely more heavy and filling but it's delicious. Most recently, I had the sausage pizza. Eh, good, not great. I'd prob skip that next time and go for the other dishes instead.
Price wise, it's pretty as expected for a nice night out. You're looking at $30-50+ per person.Helpful 6Thanks 1Love this 6Oh no 0Business owner information

Decided to celebrate our 8yr anniversary at Paradiso, nice touch with the complementary anniversary glass of champagne (from Anderson Valley).
I ordered the rack of lamb which was very tasty, but I did not care much for the cheesy orzo (perhaps a different type of cheese?) My husband had the classic steak, ordered medium rare but it was more in the medium side, still nice flavor. The star of the show for me was the heirloom tomatoes and burrata salad & the fried calamari.
Service was excellent, great attitude & friendly conversations.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
