    Service was great but food not up to usual par. Perhaps new cooks. Seafood fettuccine cream sauce was watery, shrimp was rubbery. Mashed potatoes were gluey consistency and spinach had no seasoning and was overcooked (mush). I’m a regular customer so this was disappointing for a $200 bill.

    The restaurant is nice. Great low lighting and the white table cloth with the white paper is a nice touch. The food was great. We had appetizers, a main course and dessert. Everything was good and the wait time was not too long. The manger performed leader rounding and the waitress was attentive.

    Saw other guests receive dessert with candle for their birthday. We were a bit disappointed that they knew we there celebrating our father’s 80th birthday and they did nothing for him
    Paradiso - San LeandroResponded 6 days ago
    We regret that we missed the mark here. We never would intentionally provide another guest with a candle and not another. Please forgive our missed opportunity here. We very much appreciate your family selecting us to celebrate such a milestone and hope to make it up to you in the future.

    This is a neighborhood gem. Nice ambiance, good selection of food choices, tasty cocktails all at reasonable prices. We went on a Saturday night at holiday time so it was busy and we were seated 30 minutes late for our reservation. The downside of this was the service was a bit slow, which normally wouldn't have bothered us, but we had 2 toddlers with us so as it ended up they and their mom ultimately had to have their dinner to go while the rest of us stayed to eat. Otherwise, the food was delicious, for example: the caesar salad had lots of white anchovies (love that!), the different seafoods in the frutti di mare were individually perfectly cooked, the rigatoni had a nice kick to it and was plentiful, the tiramisu was yummy!

    Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our ambiance, food selection, and tasty cocktails at reasonable prices. We apologize for the delay in seating and any inconvenience it caused, especially with toddlers in your party. It's great to know you loved the caesar salad, frutti di mare, rigatoni, and tiramisu. Your feedback is invaluable, and we hope to provide you with a smoother experience on your next visit.

    Overall, a pretty disappointing fine dining experience. We had to wait over an hour to be seated and have our order taken even though we made reservations. The food was good, but not worth the price. Little details were lacking like having a steak knife served with my prime rib. The noise level was so high we had to almost shout to be heard. One disclaimer: it was a busy Saturday night during the holidays, but still… yeah
    Paradiso - San LeandroResponded 6 days ago
    We appreciate your feedback regarding your recent visit to Paradiso. We sincerely apologize for the extended wait time, even with a reservation, and for the missing steak knife with your prime rib. While we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food, we strive for excellence in all aspects of your dining experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, as they help us improve our service.
