We’ve been coming here for years. We have celebration dinners or just date night. We’ve never had a bad meal or poor service. We celebrated our anniversary and were surprised by some “extras”. It’s a fantastic place for a great meal and nice evening.

The atmosphere and the wonderful food always brings up back to this lovely bistro. We were there once when "Check Please Bay Area" filmed an episode. Great food and attentive wait staff are always part of the deal. I will say though that the Linguine and Clams is amazing. That luscious broth—briny, garlicky, wine-kissed—is to die for. To serve it without a vehicle to mop it up with however, well that’s practically culinary malpractice. The house bread doesn't really cover it. So, perhaps hide a baguette in your purse.

Thanks for the review, Phil! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the atmosphere and our food at Paradiso. It's always a pleasure to have you back. We're glad you appreciated our Linguine and Clams. We look forward to serving you again soon!

We think the dining room was understaffed yesterday. We've felt this way before when one or more large parties are in attendance. The kitchen produced excellent food as is their custom and we were both happy with our choices. Our server, Thomas H. was as attentive as understaffing allowed him to be, but the pacing was off. After ordering, we waited a long time before the wine showed up, and then even longer for the food. We're long time customers and know that one sub-par experience happens occasionally. We'll be back for th deviled "Bacon and Eggs" and also the pepperoni and cremini mushroom pizza.
