    We are lucky to have a place like Paradiso in our neighborhood. For almost 30 years I have been proud to bring friends and family and any visitors to our fair area here for a memorable experience. Highest quality dining but not too fancy to make anyone self-conscious. Very accessible and a true sense of comfort to go with a sure-fire menu and excellent service. Never disappoints - always satisfying - truly a culinary paradise!

    We love this restaurant and have been coming here for over 20 years. We came to celebrate a HS graduation with friends and family who had come from out of town. It was an 85° day and the air conditioning was clearly not working. Plus, most of the seating is inside the main area with an open kitchen, making it even hotter. The only thing management could say was that it was an “old building.” We’ve never had an issue with air conditioning at this restaurant before, so I’m not sure how it being an old building was justified. We were not offered any complementary anything for having to deal with how hot it was in that restaurant. It is too expensive of a place to eat and not have a comfortable setting. Also, it seemed to be significantly louder than normal, even though there were fewer patrons in the restaurant. We were squished against other tables, even though there was room for us to be somewhere else. Very disappointing given that we were celebrating a momentous occasion and have been loyal customers for many, many years.

    It’s really noisy in there, they could use some acoustic remedying. It was so hot in there I guess no AC? The food was mediocre and way too expensive. Service was good. Won’t be going back though.

    Mavis we do hope that you will reconsider and visit again in the future. The area was experiencing record heat, that level is not the norm. Thank you for your patience.
