This was a return visit to Cafe Paradiso as we enjoyed it last visit. It did not disappoint this time either. My Salmon was cooked very well my friends truffle risotto gave her a great truffle fix! It could have been presented a little better maybe a bit of garnish. The staff Kelly, Miles, Kim were very good and attentive. Unfortunately I forgot to ask our host what his name is, my apologies, but he has been with CP for some time and runs the show expertly. I recommend this place and will be back.

Never disappoints. From service to food to drinks, the quality is always high - and we go there often over the last few years. The fact it’s always great speaks volumes to the core of their operations.
