This place is definitely one of my all time favorite spots to come out to eat at! Pros: + Gorgeous environment - it feels like you're in Eden + Staff is so caring and goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable + Wonderful ambiance + Food is incredible + Great for date night! + Seasonal menu that changes frequently Cons: - They don't always have seating available, so be sure to book reservations on Resy! read more

the food and service was pretty good but the portions were small compared to its price. our server was great though so props to her and the overall vibe of the place was really there. Just make sure you come with money you're willing to spend. i'd come back when once in a while. read more

My friends (group of 5) and I tried having brunch here but the service was horrible. There were so many empty tables and we were sat in the back (it was not busy at all). We waited for 15 minutes and staff walked by but never even ask us if we wanted water or anything. We decided to leave and the hosts laughed as we walked away. I had high hopes for Paradiso as the restaurant aesthetic is beautiful but this was a very disappointing experience. read more

Super cute quaint restaurant! The decor gives off a little retro 70s paradise getaway.. The food I ordered was delicious, perfect portion and pricing was great for everything. Service was on top of it and very tentative. It was all a perfect last trip meal and outing as it is down the arts strip with other fun and cute Thriftys (thrift shops) and local shops and other great eats. read more

The atmosphere was amazing! Worth the visit. The drink I had, espresso martini, was exceptional. The spaghetti was very hyped up on the menu, but the taste was mid. You will not receive the traditional spaghetti with marinara. The service was very good. The food is way overpriced for what you get. You are paying for the experience and it may be worth it. read more

Walking into this place transported me to Miami!! I absolutely loved the decor and vibes of this restaurant. Lots of neons, pink and gold all over the place, and really cool floral wall paper throughout entire place. It's got a pretty big interior dining space and lots of patio space for outdoor dining. Decor-Miami vibes all over the place. The good trim and finishing was fire and the wall paper tied everything together. Even the tile on the floor were cool and esthetically pleasing. Service-good service all throughout and I'm glad we listened to our waiters recommendations. Spaghetti-5/5 stars! I loved the white wine sauce they used. The Italian sausage was very flavorful and perfect to go with the white sauce. It's a good size portion. Sopressatta Pizza-5/5 stars! The crust was perfectly crunchy and the dough was moist and soft. The perfect amount of cheese and sauce was used and the frizzed honey gave this pizza another level of taste. It's an average size and a perfect portion for two people. All in all, this was a great lunch experience. read more

The food here is DELICIOUS and unique. Every single thing I tried was so flavorful. I swear I'd come here just for the spiced chicken skewers and marinated burrata. Both of them were super fresh, filled with flavor and satisfying! I also had the steak frites, which was a great choice. My steak was cooked medium rare & wood grilled, over a bed of fresh hot crispy fries, topped with what they call "salsa verde" but was really a mild garlicky herbal chimichurri type sauce. Absolutely delicious. I took the leftovers home to cook up with some eggs for breakfast! The brussels sprouts were crispy salty goodness, and the marinated artichoke side was so unique & refreshing & unexpected, served cold with a creamy feta topping. The only thing I wasn't super crazy about was the pistachio chocolate cake. The *idea* and presentation of it was amazing, but the reality of it lacked a little...something. None of the flavors really stood out. The cake part needs to be more chocolatey and there needs to be more emphasis on the strawberry, imho. I was there for a work dinner, but I'd come back in a HEARTBEAT on my own. So good! The service was also on point! We were in the private dining room with just one server for all of us, and he was fantastic all night! Go try it! read more

Made a reservation 5 days before our dinner and was only able to sit outside for a party of 3 even after I asked if they could sit us inside. This was a bit disappointing since there were several tables inside that stayed empty during our whole stay. I feel like this place purposely sits ppl outside to make it seem like it's more packed then it actually is. I didn't expect much from this place food wise since it just seemed like an Instagram worthy restaurant with all the nice backgrounds and areas to take pics. I will say one of the reasons I didn't like about eating outside while having my dinner is all the ppl that walk around just to get that perfect pic for their social media pages. Kind of a mood killer in my opinion. Finally the food- we got some drinks to try and I will say I really liked the time after time, it was refreshing. I wasn't a fan of the 'if purple & lilac' since I'm not a fan of spicy cocktails. My husband got the distant families and really enjoyed it. My niece had the silent dove and liked it. For our appetizer- we got the hummus with the pita and veggies. We had to order some more to finish the rest of our hummus. We really enjoyed it. My niece and I shared a pizza- the Italian sausage and stracciatella. It was good nothing out of the norm. My husband got the spaghetti and I think it was my fav of the night. Overall Its overpriced for what they give you. For three of us it was $95 (and I shared a pizza with my niece) I give it 3 stars, one for drinks, two for our food and three for our waitress(which I forgot her name) she was very attentive and friendly. read more

My friend and I popped in during the week to check it out. He had been before and this was my first time. I was told the food was "ok" and honestly after that was how I would describe it as well. I will say our treatment and service was excellent from the moment we arrived. The vibe and decor, especially the floral arrangements above the bar were beautiful. I ordered a glass of wine and we we shared the chicken skewers to start. I thought the chicken was decent but the pita and yogurt was very, very tasty. For the main, I had the pappardelle. I would also describe this as ok. It had great presentation. The cherry tomatoes were notably delicious. The flavor just didn't jump out at me, and I felt it needed something to make it pop. I do think I would come back in the future and try something else. Or perhaps sit at the bar for drinks. read more

Oftentimes restaurants with beautiful decor have lackluster food. Paradiso is a place where the interior and atmosphere is as amazing as it's food. I came here on a Thursday evening and was immediately seated. My waitress was very attentive and kind. I ordered the Rock Shrimp Fra Diavolo and the Broccoli di Ciccio. My friend ordered the Sweet Corn Rigatoni. All three dishes were delicious. The broccoli salad was something new for me and I was pleasantly surprised by the light flavor and the subtle seafood taste. The sweet corn rigatoni was also delicious with its creamy texture and slight sweetness from the corn. I also enjoyed the fra diavolo, but didn't find the shrimp adding much flavor to the dish. Maybe using larger shrimp and pan searing them first would lend better flavor and texture to the dish. Overall a good experience and I'd be back to try out the other dishes! read more

I went in with very high hopes for my brunch experience at Paradiso and some parts were wonderful and others were not great. The decor and overall ambiance is wonderful. Being in the Bishop Arts area is already a great vibe and Paradiso's decor for both indoor and outdoor seating options were great! Perfect aesthetic for brunch! The service was not bad. The waiter gave recommendations for his top favorites and was very helpful and patient in splitting the bill for a larger group. The food itself was where I was a bit disappointed. For brunch offerings, there were few of the classic options like pancakes, eggs, and waffles. I ordered the smoked salmon toast and it was not bad but was nothing special. To cater to a larger demographic I think sprinkling in a few more of the classic options would be helpful. In addition, there were no lattes or speciality caffeine drinks available. This is usually a staple at most brunch places. For the price point I probably would not go back read more

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Value: 3/5 ----- This place is so cute, I think it's truly one of my prettiest and nicest casual places in Dallas. In Bishop Arts, it's definitely one of the highlights of the neighborhood that you'll love bringing your out of town friends to. A friend and I made a last minute reservation after work to check the place out, and we got a few drinks and the steak frites, the shrimp fra diavolo, and tried a few of their oysters. The steak frites were EXCELLENT, I would definitely come back to Paradiso just to eat this. The pasta dish was just fine I thought. And their oysters - if you like classic oysters (like me), this might not be your jam, but my friend who doesn't typically like oysters unless they're cooked and dressed up Rockefeller style, he really enjoyed them. Overall our bill was higher than I was anticipating, and I think that for the price, it was just ok, but I figure you're probably mostly paying for the vibes. Would come back! read more

I just moved to the area and saw this beautiful spot last weekend while walking through Bishop Arts. We tried to eat here then but it was a 45 min wait even though there were many empty tables. I still wanted to try it out so i visited their Instagram and made a reservation for this weekend. I came with a party of 6 and we had a 7:45 pm reservation. We got a few drinks and some hummus to start. I really liked the fresh pita bread. The hummus was fine but nothing special. Drinks were also fine but nothing amazing. For dinner we had a couple pizzas, chicken thighs, salmon and rock shrimp. The chicken and salmon appeared to be the highlight of the table, although i didnt personally taste them. We also ordered sides of fries and tabouleh. The fries were probably my favorite part of the meal. Garlic, parmesan and rosemary is always a winning combo. The pizzas we got were the sopprasatta and chorizo and olive. The sopprasatta was the best. Drizzled with Calabrian honey was delish. Two members of the party did not like the charred bits on the pizza, pretty standard when cooked in a wood-fire oven. I didn't mind it. I didnt find the pizzas that flavorful and the crust was a bit thicker than i would have liked. I tried the rock shrimp diavola and it was ok- i dont think the shrimp was super fresh- it tasted fishy to me which is a sign of it not being that fresh. I know were in the middle of the country so that affects the freshness of seafood- just worth noting. I wanted to try their desserts- very limited dessert menu. They could stand to have a better chocolate option. We shared (the three that wanted dessert) the panna cota and caramel cheesecake. Both were tasty but not amazing. Overall, i am torn about my review of this place. I am leaning towards a 3 for food but 4 for ambiance. Ultimately 3.5 but we can't do half stars. I give it a 3 because what food tastes like is what makes me go back to a place. A pretty ambiance might get me in the door once. This place is quite pricey but overall not worth the hefty prices. Also worth noting, we had a non optional 20% gratuity added to out check with a party of 6. I just moved here so I'm not sure if thats the norm. In the PNW, where im from, thats more standard on a large party of maybe 10-15 people. read more

I absolutely love Paradiso!! It's so cute and festive every time I go. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Not to mention it rotates every quarter. I had the rigatoni and it was spot on!

First, let me say this location is so beautiful and everything you would dream of when going to a weekend brunch in terms of looks. But that's about where it ends. The look is bomb, the pizzas were amazing but they are VERY strict on their brunch menu. The menu that doesn't match the online menu which isn't cool. They won't let you order anything else which is fine once you get past that. The drinks I few are overpriced but good. I had the lemon delight. I looked for a basic champagne and the list isn't great. Also, they don't communicate to each other so when they were out of things we waited not knowing they were out. What saved the day is our waiter, he was SO KIND and nice and went above and beyond to fix all of our issues. Do not order the quiche it was a joke. A thin slice of egg pie and some sort of salad. Stick to the pizza. Also it was HOT. Not ok. Sweating while waiting and drinking not a fan read more

Paradiso is true paradise. I went with a party of 4, and everyone absolutely loved their meal. Being a vegan, i had no hesitation ordering the vegetable sandwich, which I need to learn how to recreate at home. It was sweet potato based with greens, goat cheese and a light creamy sauce. I was originally turned off by the restaurant itself as it appears exuberant and ostentatious. Not really my scene- but it indubitably delicious. read more

We've only been to Paradiso a couple times for drinks, but it's been hit or miss. Of the bar staff we've met, only one has been attentive and helpful. The others were super distracted and more interested in each other than the customers. That being said, the drinks have been good and the atmosphere is beautiful so we'll still give it a try for food before deciding it isn't for us. read more

Paradiso is adorable both inside and out - you can't miss the numerous photo opportunities; they're everywhere, both inside and outside the restaurant! The pizza was my favorite. I'm a fan of spicy-sweet, and the honey paired with the soppressata - chef's kiss! I'm sure the handmade pastas are as good as the pizza; I will definitely be back to pair them with some wine. I wasn't impressed with the drink options, and be mindful what you have a taste for their menu changes for brunch, lunch, and dinner. Also, keep in mind this is Bishop Arts; I definitely suggest making reservations and allowing extra time for parking. We had a slight mishap and were charged twice with no receipt, but the manager was great and promptly fixed the issue, so no complaints. It wasn't his fault our server was not the best. But a shoutout to the sweet host - they accommodated my party and me without reservations on a busy Friday night rush because I was nice. It pays to be kind, folks! These busy popular places get so many people in and out .. just be nice! read more

This place is super cute and trendy, I like then open atmosphere but the service and food was lacking a bit for me. The only thing that really knocked it out of the park was the desserts, all of them were tasty! For starters we had, the grilled golden beets, and fried artichoke. Both were really good. Unfortunately, our server kept disappearing for very long times so that put a damper on the experience. For our entrees we tried the spaghetti (6/10), Gemelli & Butternut Squash Romesco (7/10), Roasted Chicken (2/10, had to send back) Pan Seared Salmon (4/10), and the Italian Sausage pizza (8/10). So as you can see the scores weren't that high, I'd stick with a pizza and play it safe here. Overall, there's some room for improvement, but not a terrible place. read more

Only based on service. Not friendly at check-in; no direction. We decided to head to the bar until our table was ready. The bartenders and staff did not acknowledge us for about 10-15 min. They did not offer a greeting and let us know there's a wait but they will get to us. There was another lady sitting at the bar who had been ignored even longer. We left. We ended up meeting another guest that left this bar at paradiso due to the same service. It was mildly busy. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with pink and green. read more

I met some friends at Paradiso for a Galentine's dinner. There's alot of construction around it and its located in a busy section of the Bishop Arts district. With that said, if you don't like dealing with congested areas, I wouldn't try this place on a weekend. It's a very cute place. The courtyard area is a worthy location for taking pics. The service here wasn't very good. There were 5 of us in my group so not too large but our drinks were brought out one at a time over a span of 20-25 mins. I ordered the Missed you in Dallas cocktail which was a special for Valentine's. It was pretty but the mezcal overpowered all the others ingredients in the cocktail. We stopped our waitress as she was passing by us to put in our food orders. I ordered some oysters along with the ricotta duck confit. The oysters were flavored w Lavender and Grapefruit. I thought they were very good and fresh. The duck - I was not a fan of at all. My friends ordered a variety of things pizza, the hummus, this crab dish and fries. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal except the friend who ordered the crab. I don't think I would come back. I would like to think we came on a bad night but its rare I'm in the area and not sure I'd make a special trip for this place. read more

To start, the inside was decorated so cute. The food was nice as well, I appreciate that the dishes were unique and came out fairly quick. As for why I was less than happy, the service was not as amazing as the rest of the restaurant. Our waiter had not came to greet us, and as a group of three we were squeezed onto a two top table even though it was not the lunch rush hour. I understand that our waiter had a few tables and could not greet us right away, but he had treated the table beside us much differently than my table. Overall, I would recommend coming here if you don't mind being treated a certain way. read more

We accidentally came here before they were open and went inside; the hostess ran out and told us they would open in a few minutes. Still, after a few minutes, the hostess let us inside and told us we could sit down, but we will get a server at 11 am. Anyway, our server was great. He took good care of us. Decent drip coffee. The restaurant is gorgeous and Instagram-worthy, but I was disappointed with my meal. I had steak frites. I asked for medium rare, but it was close to well done. The meat wasn't flavorful, even with the salsa verde. The fries were delicious, but due to the steak juices, some of the fries were soggy, which I didn't enjoy. read more

Lovely ambiance. Been wanting to come here just for the ambiance for years, and finally had the opportunity last night for a friend's bachelorette celebration. Service was just so-so. Pretty slow even when it wasn't super busy, and we had to ask multiple times for utensils and plates. The drinks were above average; pretty strong, but the rose and coffee notes on the two respective drinks were a bit too subtle for my liking. The food was okay. We ordered the rock shrimp pasta, duck ragout, and roasted chicken. Everything was good but nothing really stood out as amazing. The desserts, however, were delicious! The chocolate fudge cake was rich and flavorful. The panna cotta was delicious and not overpowering. Both were also well-plated. For the future, I would not come back and splurge on entrees again. Instead, I would come for the drinks, ambiance, and dessert! read more

Absolutely lives up to the hype. First of all, this is just a beautiful restaurant. So open and airy, and plants everywhere. Drinks are excellent and creative. BUT THE FOOD! We started with the pita bread and the oysters. The pita is clearly baked fresh- it comes out steaming and warm. The pizza- I recommend the soppressata- was out of this world (and I'm a snob about pizza). We also got the steak and frites which was delicious. Holy wow. Amazing meal. Will be back. I will say- it is in Bishop Arts so parking can be tricky, but there is a free lot about a block away. read more

So pretty, beautiful restaurant with a come and stay a while vibe. Service is leisurely, and there is no rush to get you in and out. Drinks are amazing, perfection, delightful and priced on par with the surrounding area. Food is good but it ranks below the atmosphere and beverages. We came for brunch which is a limited menu, the biscuits and gravy not only look amazing, but there is a smoky heat to this fluffy dish, that is so satiating. Likewise the fresh bread with herbs, feta and oil is much lighter than the biscuit and a great shareable appetizer. Read the pizza ingredients carefully, we got the soppressata because it said spicy but I didn't read the rest as it also has honey! A sweet pizza is not my jam, I didn't like it at all, but it's my fault for not reading the menu in its entirety. Lastly I had the baby spinach salad with strawberry's and it's a baby salad. The salad is priced way too high for what you get in portion size and ingredients and there is nothing special about it- it's a skip. Recommend stopping here for a specialty cocktail and some appetizers. Wish the outdoor space had more shade than the table umbrellas, it is Dallas and a larger pergola or shade sail would help keep the skin from roasting. read more

This was a perfect post Christmas brunch! We were able to get a last minute reservation and the restaurant wasn't too busy. Paradio's attention to detail is unmatched from the decor, menu, to the actual food. Our waitress was Uber attentive and checked in every 10-15 minutes. We got a seat near the kitchen where there is a window into the kitchen. We got a great view of the pizzas being made. I went with a few girlfriends so we got plates to share. we started off with the potatoes toastadas with caviar which were a divine starter. They were rich and filling. For our main course we got the crab pasta and mozzarella pizza which were both amazing and filling enough to feed 4 girls! I will definitely be back for another occasion and highly recommend this for anyone looking for a great dinner in a restaurant with a terrific atmosphere. read more

3 stars for the main menu, but 5 stars for their dessert, cocktails and atmosphere! So I was a bit torn on this review. I've been here twice and the food we ordered was all just "okay" and kinda bland. Tried a few pasta dishes, apps and the steak frites - and not very impressed. Curious to try their brunch menu if it's better. I will say - I do really like this spot though. It's such a cute restaurant with a great vibe. Might just be better for drinks and dessert! The cocktails we tried were awesome and the chocolate hazelnut dessert is one of the BEST desserts I've ever had! read more

Didn't have to wait long and the restaurant is beautiful and so fun! Great drinks & great food. Great menu too. Onto the reviews... Paradiso Soda: Refreshing and tangy! Ordered two. Fresh Baked Bread: Came fast and hit the spot!! Delicious warm pita and feta. Artichoke Starter: Also yummy, would recommend! Eggplant Sandwich: Delicious fries and the sandwich was great but would have been much better with a toasted ciabatta instead of the italian roll. Would have elevated the sandwich a lot. Soprasatta Pizza: Delicious, spicy and sweet at the same time. A little soggy but good. Prosciutto di Parma: Lots of arugula, very refreshing. A little hard to eat but yummy. read more

I've worked in the service industry for years--I GET bad days. This was over the top and inexcusable. Sat down to order a drink and offered to buy tenders the same. Asked if the bartender knew the shot. Bartender #2 (I think Adam, neck tattoos, built, hispanic) mocked my question. I asked Tender #2 several questions he blatantly ignored. When I asked his coworker who made the shots if he was okay she said "yeah he's just like that." He then repeated "don't call ICE on me" and "I'm getting no tip from this guy" despite me already providing a 30% tip. When I told him that he said "I don't give a fuck about you or your tip." Clearly this guy has issues, is on drugs, or is otherwise unfit for this job. Cherry on top? He took the shot I bought him. I'll never return. read more

I booked a table for my birthday party here. It's a great spot for Instagram posts and everything is visually stunning here. The fountains and patio seating is beautiful for early summer. We had hummus and pita bread and fried artichoke for appetizers. Hummus also come with carrots and celery sticks as our gluten free request. They ran out of 2 dishes (quiche and lamb grilled) we wanted so I had to order prosciutto arugula pizza and steak and fries instead. Pizza were delicious and the steak is so juicy and the chimichuri sauce brightens up the steak with fries dish. I'd say the steak is the favorite of the brunch. Cocktail and mocktails are both delicious and my friends said they are generous on the liquor . read more
