Went to dinner tonight and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! I had the elk burger which was cooked to perfection. My friends had the bolognese which looked so darn good I'll be ordering that next visit. Quaint and cozy environment, great wine and would definitely recommend checking it out. 5 stars to the chef (owner) for everything!!! read more

We got seated a very quiet round table just behind the hostess desk. A perfect secluded little spot for good conversation. Always wonderful service. I starved myself knowing I was coming here for dinner. The portions are very generous. We started with a trio of Venetian Arancini (fried risotto balls). Light crispy and great for sharing. They are huge and very tasty. The other appetizer we tried was the fried crispy Brussels sprouts with a most delicious dipping sauce. We also shared their apple prosciutto salad with candied pecans, and bits of Gorgonzola cheese. The matchstick slices of apple ensured you had a bit of sweet crunch with each bite. Very yummy. I would have this as an entree salad next time. I ordered the daily special. A fire roasted salmon belly curled in a circle and a 2 big stalks of asparagus sticking straight up. The salmon was on a bed of mashed potato surrounded on a simple butter sauce. Again a very big entree. The local petrale sole was huge and served with wilted spinach, olive oil mashed potato and with a brown butter sauce. We were so full but made room for a serving of Dutch apple crisp with a dollop of ice cream. They have a full bar so we had a lemon drop and Hendricks and tonic. read more

Curry chicken was perfectly cooked. Mushroom ravioli excellent. Service by Julian excellent. A hidden gem.

We had a fantastic dinner with great service and ambiance. The chef is a master at flavors and presentation! We loved every bite of the Bolognase, focaccia, mushroom ravioli, Gnocchi topped off by divine crème brûlée. Our table voted the mushroom ravioli as the top dish of the nite. read more

Paradisio is a limited seating restaurant with a menu that cannot be imagined in a small rural community. I made reservations for our anniversary and pre ordered a Beef Wellington for two. I appreciate an establishment that lets you order off menu. The Chef Michael was accommodating and asked what time we wanted the meal on the table. My reservation was 6:30 and after wine and appetizers I told him 7:00. When we arrived we were greeted immediately and the Hostess/Server took us to our table and took our drink and appetizer order. Our drinks hand appetizer came out quickly considering the restaurant was busy and she was the only person on the floor. Our table was cleared and our Wellingtons were on the table within minutes after 7. What a perfect example of a Wellington! The filet was roasted perfectly and the pastry was crusty and flavorful with the mushrooms and bacon roasted inside. The Jus' reduction was just tasty! In my opinion this was the best meal I've eaten in our town. This is a Beer and Wine establishment with a significant wine list. Thank you for a great Anniversary dinner. read more

This is the best fine dining in Redding, hands down. Great atmosphere and excellent food. The staff are super cool, hard working people. We have been many times and it's always really good. Went last night for Valentine's Day and it was even better. Highly recommend! read more

Service, food, and ambience were all amazing! Food is fresh made in-house and our experience was great! We don't live in Redding but can't wait to eat here again! read more

We accidentally got a seat at this restaurant. After walking around downtown. The chef is quite amazing and the food is fabulous. The chef definitely has his heart into preparing the best seafood in other dishes. We love dead and i'm hoping to go there for a special occasion.Such as my birthday. It was wonderful! read more

Better than Nellos if you can get in, they need to expand and grow like Nello did when he was young, atmosphere is great, live music, supports local artists of all kinds, the food is amazing, wait time could be a little less but way worth it read more

Worst service I ever had!!! I was really looking forward to trying this place, but the service was absolutely disappointing! Despite having a reservation, we were completely ignored. When we arrived, the waitress greeted us but didn't seat us -- instead, she started pouring wine and serving other tables right in front of us. She didn't even acknowledge that our table wasn't ready, nor did she say something like, "We just need a moment to clean your table, please wait." Instead, she began cleaning and setting up the table after we arrived -- something that should've been ready with our reservation. But it gets worse. Just when I thought she was bringing plates to prepare our table, she walked into the kitchen and started serving desserts to other customers. Meanwhile, we were still awkwardly standing by the cashier area. After that, she began preparing checks -- and at this point, our table still wasn't ready. Frustrated and completely ignored, we finally just walked out. I've never experienced such poor service. read more

A cozy restaurant with excellent service and a great menu. The whole team was welcoming and made great suggestions. The Elk burger was exquisite. Brie platter and fucaccia were also very flavorful and we enjoyed the experience. Creme Brulee was awesome. read more

Excellent food, and a wine list that includes some very good local choices. Make sure to face the kitchen, as the chef puts on a great show. read more

Amazing!!! Definitely get a reservation if you want to eat here. It's a very small establishment with spectacular food & service!!! We had the brussel sprouts appetizer! 9/10! The sear on the brussel sprouts was perfect. Paired with green apple, bacon, and basalmic drizzle. The ceaser salad. 9/10. Wonderful lemon flavor addition to traditional Caesar dressing. Wild mushroom ravioli with cream truffle sauce. 10/10!!! Unbelievable! Perfect! Don't pass on this. You will regret it. Teres major. 10/10! Great flavor! Perfectly cooked! Unique flavor combinations. This will NOT disappoint! We are so glad that we found this restaurant. Fine dining in an intimate setting. Don't sleep on this gem. I cannot recommend them highly enough! read more

Absolutely amazing food and service, way better than Nello's and much more quality from only one server and one chef.

One of the best kept little secrets in Redding. They are small but have the best food, prepared. l love their curry with shrimp.

This was the note I show up to for what was supposed to be my first time there reservation I had was confirmed earlier this week @7:45pm for May 17th no one reached out to me at all I show up to see this taped to the door. Very unprofessional and wasted time no heads up so I could've called and scheduled to eat any where else. read more

I think I found my new favorite restaurant! Cafe Paradisio is located in a quiet area of downtown within walking distance to the Market Street Promenade. There is plenty of parking right out front. We managed to get same day reservations on a Saturday and thank goodness we called ahead. As we sat and dined, walk-ins were being turned away because the restaurant was booked up for the night. The restaurant is small with maybe 10 small tables total and just 2 seats at the bar so reservations any day of the week would be a good idea. It was extremely hot outside but nice and cool inside. The wait staff is very efficient and friendly. We started with the ahi poke and baked brie platter appetizers. The ahi was delicious, smothered in soy sauce and sesame oil, I highly recommend this dish! The brie came with housemade crackers, equally delicious but I felt the portion size was on the smaller side for the price. The housemade crackers came topped with a balsamic glaze which was quite messy to eat. For dinner I had the braised beef short rib which was cooked perfectly with the meat falling off the bone. The fusion style curried rice Complimented the flavor of the rib very well. We finished with a creme brulee which did not disappoint. The whole experience here was great from start to finish. The wait staff was experienced, friendly, and prompt. read more

Let me be clear: this is one of the best places in Redding for amazing food. The husband is the chef, and the wife runs the floor, and together, they've created an amazing culinary experience. Lots of appetizers to choose from, diverse wine and beer list, homemade soups that will knock your socks off, wonderful entree options for any palette, and homemade desserts to bring it all home. Needless to say, the service and experience is top tier - and you feel how much they care about you from the moment you walk in the door. The ambiance is quaint and small with a local photographer gracing the walls. Make a reservation - you can leave a message before they open, and she will call you back. This restaurant is absolutely fantastic, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to have an elegant evening with top-tier food and unprecedented service. To you, Paradisio, thank you for working so hard to give us such an amazing place to enjoy. read more

One of my favorite restaurants, I always get the chicken marsala with mashed potatoes instead of penne pasta & my husband usually gets either a New York or ribeye depending on what they have that day. I've also tried the pesto pasta and lasagna with meatballs and both were very delicious. The waitress is always super attentive and kind, I highly recommends this cute hidden gem! read more

Paradisio - Chicken Marsala Ribeye - American Near Me - Redding, California

Food was fabulous, ambiance was horrid. This is a small space and I had assumed it would be small table seatings. Last night we were seated near (in this pace it is hard not to be near) a table of 12!!! These were 12 very loud women. We could not even hold a conversation at our table. They would get very loud and if one of them had something to say to the group they literally rang a bell to get their group to quiet down and then one of them would loudly address the entire group. I am not kidding they literally had a bell at either end of the table that they would ring! While the food was great, I would sincerely hope that the management/owners would limit the size of a group that they would serve in this small space! It is ridiculous to drop $100 for dinner at an establishment when you can barely hear yourself think! read more

Excellent food! Great service- Joycie was very knowledgeable of the menu. Great selection of appetizers, salads and entrees.

i love this place. we've been twice and the chicken marsala pasta was phenomenal. the flavors were so bright and balance. i could taste so many different flavors and none of them were over powering. my second time there i ordered the sausage pasta and it was good but not as amazing as the chicken marsala. the restaurant is small and the service is great. really attentive. really chill vibes in there. you can tell the chef is really passionate about his craft and i think that cafe paradiso is so elevated for redding. i always recommend it to anyone looking for amazing, quality, classy food. if i could eat here weekly i definitely would. read more

Food was amazing. Service was great and ambience was wonderful. The restaurant seating is cozy and intimate....just a fun spot!

My husband and I were on our way to watch a comedy show at the Redding Civic Auditorium. We were going to have dinner at a nearby restaurant but they couldn't get us in early enough. We went for a short drive and found this gem of a restaurant! It was already booked for the night and we didn't make any reservations. Luckily there was a spot at the bar and we gladly sat there. Food here is to die for and the service is awesome. We're almost thankful that the plan to eat at the first restaurant fell through. Definitely will be coming back here! read more

Service and food were great! Grilled peach salad: Salads are hard to make good and this was a good salad. An appropriate portion for one person. It felt a little heavy on the dressing (like if your clothes are heavy after standing in the rain without an umbrella), but I still really enjoyed the thoughtful flavor combinations of nutty arugula, roasted and mildly candied walnuts, smoky charred fresh cubed peaches, and goat cheese. I paired this peachy dish with a peaches and cream Italian soda and it was not too much peach. It was EXCELLENT. Elk burger with garlic fries: My partner really enjoyed the burger. It wasn't my thing for whatever reason, usually I like gamey meats. HOWEVER, the stuff they put ON the burger was really tasty. I would have liked to see that on top of their very good and crispy thin cut fries. The fries themselves were excellent and very garlicky, served with an aoili. The only weird thing about them was that they were sprinkled with a flavorless cheese that didn't add anything for me. Definitely swap out the cheese for the elk burger juices, sauce, and bacon (not sure if goat cheese would be too much). It is very packed inside as far a seating goes, no one was wearing a mask, so would definitely only recommend if you are comfortable with that level of risk. read more

Had another amazing dinner there once again tonight. I had the pumpkin risotto and it was delicious. Presented so well, full of flavor. Husband and Father had the rib eye and it was cooked to perfection. One medium and the other medium rare. The twice baked potato was full of flavor. Last item was the chicken Marsala and I don't even understand how the chicken is so tender and moist with a flavorful sauce. As always thank you for a great dining experience and wonderful food. read more

Hidden gem. Loved it food was delicious staff was hard working and friendly. I have never been to Redding and was pleasantly surprised

Great food and service. My wife had Chicken Marsala with a house salad and wine. I had seared scallops and a side salad. We both had crème brûlée for desert. The service is excellent. The down sides are it's rather old and worn and very noisy. It was difficult to have a conversation. read more

This is by far the best restaurant in Redding! Very quaint, super attentive server, and you just can't beat this place!

This local gem is on DoorDash and their take out food is just as yummy as their dine in. Some staple favorites are the Chicken Marsala with sun dried tomatoes, or cherry tomatoes, a nice twist to the classic recipe, the pork gnocchi, gnocchi in house made, the scallops, whatever that sauce is on top is oooooh so delish, and if they have it available, you must try the fish specials!! We usually end our meals with some locally made Sorbet or creme brûlée. Starters to try: ahi wontons and Mac and cheese. The waitress is as pretty on the inside as she is on the out and the chef is talented and kind. Honestly I can't rave enough about this place, it's our local favorite and every time we leave, were soon talking about how we can't wait till the next visit. read more
