    Paradiso has been our family restaurant for years now. I love the consistency of the food. It's me and hubby's date night place of choice. Not necessarily for ambiance, but good food and good service always trumps ambiance. Even on a busy New Years Eve night,with patrons waiting awhile for their reserved placement, the staff carried off perfect food and service. This review is long overdue. Any establishment can have a bad night, and this one is no exception. But give them a go. You're more likely to have a great meal and service consistently here. You can't loose!

    We were there for New Year’s Eve right on time for our reservation. We had to wait a half hour before we were seated as there were no tables turning over. I would rate the food as mediocre. Vegetables very bland, prime rib, a three out of a five rating. Usually this place serves that are quality food, but I believe since it’s a holiday stuff gets pushed out there fast and not as good as it usually is. They try hard to please. Free champagne was offered while we were waiting for our tables.

    We usually like Paradiso but the new years prix fixe was not a good experience. We were seated right by the door and had a constant cold draft and people by the host stand constantly standing over us. Menu posting also was misleading and implied a wine pairing was included. Food was incredibly slow, an hour between courses 2 and 3. Servers were also constantly bringing food to the wrong table and we had to remind them to bring the initial bite after the first course. Our server was very nice but clearly overwhelmed as she had way too many tables. Think the restaurant clearly overbooked for NYE and it wasn’t a great experience.

    My husband and I were happy to be out together. Quality food. The ambiance. Great conversation with each other. A wonderful evening. Bonus: It was nice for Martin, the manager, to stop by our table a chat a moment.
