The food reminded me of the best Northern California cuisine - fresh ingredients, inspired spicing and flavors, superb presentation. We had succulent salmon on black risotto, goose leg on roasted root vegetables, the best bruschetta I have ever had (and much more). And the house-made desserts are set right out on the counter and are spectacular. Service excellent. And the... More

To be fair to the Paradiso.....one of our teenagers and my husband had a big fight moments before we entered the restaurant. It takes away from the experience when the table is so quiet...and brooding. We had a nice bottle of wine (believe me...we needed it ) and the bruschetta to start. The serving was interesting, but really tasty. There... More

I have some food restrictions so I needed to make several requests.The waitress was terrific, she checked with the cook and also made suggestions of her own. I enjoyed... More

We arrived from a very long trip tired and hungry but Shabbat was not yet over. We were happy to find the Cafe and were not disappointed. We both enjoyed our meals, but wow, we're they big! I had the Israeli salad and chicken livers. It Ian's enough for 3 meals. I took home my leftovers and indeed ate them... More

You can be almost sure (never 100% in anything), that every time it will be good service, good food, nice atmosphere, a bit noisy and the bread crust will be impossible to break. One of the reasons to go there is the polenta, the other is the fact that it is not kosher and then open weekends. They have also... More

Great food! Anytime I and friends have ate at Paradiso, our food has always been good. Like the selection of foods available also. If you are a dessert person, the desserts have been very good. Love the outdoor sitting!

Paradiso is a place that I frequent a lot .I take it for granted because it is -for me-the neighborhood restaurant and/or the place around the corner.Although I live far away from it-I dont miss a chance to come back here for lunch,coffee,sandwich or a full dinner with friends.The Menue is quite versatile:From soups to fish,salads,jewish ethnic,Italian & excellent sandwiches....

We stayed at the King Solomon hotel, and the Paradiso was across the street and around the corner off Jabotinsky. We started with a bottle of a cabernet/syrah blend that was very nice, and enjoyed the bruschetta topped with chopped tomato, cheese, and herbs. I had the spinach tortellini with cheeses in a yummy sauce, other dinners at our table... More
