    This 5 Course Daou Wine experience was exceptional. Interesting and informative wine spokesperson. Paradiso staff and waiters were friendly and prompt. The food curated for the event was outstanding and paired really well with the delicious flight of wines. And excellent, friendly dinner company made for a lovely evening.

    We’ve done at Paradiso a few different times before, but never participated in their wine makers and chefs tasting menu. I have to say that this was one of the most incredible evenings ever. The food was incredible, visits from the chef at each course, explaining the dishes, the sources of the ingredients and the thought process behind pairing them with the wine pairings made everything Stand out even more special. Learning about the vineyard and the owners of the winery was also incredible and the wine was impeccable. Truly, a really unique experience in San Leandro and in the Bay Area. They have made us want to return for every event that we can possibly make there. .

    We’ve been eating at Paradiso practically since it opened. We’ve never had a bad experience. The food is always delicious, the service very attentive. It’s not a huge place and with hard surfaces and very high ceilings it can be pretty loud so not particularly romantic. But I’m really glad to see they are doing well and we’ll get to eat there for a long time. It’s literally the nicest place in our area.

    I had the Beet salad - very nice! Lots of beets - a real variety - with almonds, arugala, fennel, and a lovely, tasty dressing. Will defnitely order again. We were there on a weekend, so were offered the Brunch menu. I prefer the M-F menu, but there were still several options that I was able to choose from. I wanted plain iced tea, but they only had flavored teas. She offered me hot tea, but I passed. This is still a favorite.

    The food (mussel appetizer, eggplant Parmesan and patrole sole entrees) was excellent but our waiter was overbearing! We could barely swallow a mouthful of food without him asking how we were enjoying our meal. I guess an overbearing waiter is better than being ignored, but the constant interruptions to give our food rating was inconvenient an put a damper on our meal
