    This is my go-to wonderful restaurant. I am always warmly greeted by the front host, who is engaging and accommodating. The service is outstanding! Our waiter was very familiar with the details of the bar and food menus, and recommended the delicious choices for each of us. The basil martini is perfectly balanced and a delightful surprise. Since I frequent this restaurant, I am always excited to try the daily specials. I am vegetarian, and there are more than enough tempting choices. I am especially fond of starting with the beet salad, which is many textures and flavors. Last night I had the ravioli as my main course, and it had many delicious vegetables in the brothy sauce. Our table completed the meal with carrot cake and a side of chocolate ice cream. Paradiso is a very special place.
