Master chef and owner Angelo Romano draws upon his family’s culinary history and decades of cooking experience to stock Paradiso Ristorante’s menu with gourmet Italian dishes made from organic and seasonal ingredients. Diners embark on epicurean adventures with organic scottish salmon tartar accompanied by crisp apples and fresh ginger, or tickle their taste buds with the seafaring flavors of the granchio con insalatina’s soft-shell crab. Tender duck breast swims among ginger sauce in the anatra in due modi, and the grilled summer vegetables found in the timballo di ortaggi celebrate the summer’s bounty like a parade of baseball players dressed in corn suits. Each patron can follow up savory selections with sweet gelato—prepared tableside with liquid nitrogen—that fills the air with sweet vapors and cools the palate for an evening of vibrant discourse.

The charming candlelit interior at Paradiso welcomes twosomes and foursomes with an airy dining room accentuated with lofted ceilings, art depicting Venetian canals, and the friendly ghosts of Italian gondolas. As soft romantic music permeates ears, ornate wall murals bask in the light from overhead chandeliers.
