Paradiso is a fun, kitschy joint in the most eclectic neighborhood in Dallas. The Bishop Arts hood feels more like you're in Chicago or New York because of the refreshing and welcoming diversity. Paradiso has a unique feel because it has as much well-designed space outside as it does inside. The patio area feels more like a garden than patio. Even in the crazy Dallas heat you'll find people eating or cocktailing al fresco. The bar area is beautiful. It's covered in flowers and fun European style furniture. The bartenders were knowledgeable and fun to hang with because they clearly enjoy talking about their craft. Nothing worse than a bartender that is too important to chat it up with their customers. I had a delicious signature recipe called Dreaming of Suze (pic 2). It immediately caught my eye because Suze is a staple in our bar. It's a yellow French bitter liqueur you don't regularly find out at restaurants. I've never seen anyone infuse it. They complemented Mezcal with strawberry-infused Suze, sage syrup, lime and strawberry puree served in a tall glass over ice. It was a nice summer recipe and one I will definitely try to recreate at home. My second was a classic old fashioned made with Basil Hayden bourbon (pic 4) It was delicious and well-balanced. If you're in Dallas and want a change of pace from the usual, go down to Bishop Arts and take in the eclectic flavor while enjoying all the shops, restaurants and some cocktails at Paradiso. Salute @thejohnnycocktail Oh btw, that plate is the most delicious and beautiful hummus we've ever had!! Dreaming of Suze Mezcal Strawberry infused Suze Sage Syrup Lime Strawberry Puree read more

Came here to dine with a girlfriend after hearing all the buzz on social media. The interior and vibes are absolutely to die for, but other than the decor everything else just sort of felt flat. The hostess was a bit rude, the place was not busy at all and she sat us in the back corner where there was no airflow in the heat of Dallas summer. I politely asked if we could move and she said to give her a minute and walked away and continued seating others when there were plenty of empty tables open. The man serving seemed completely uninterested and not hospitable. As for the food, it tasted better than I had expected for a trendy "instagrammable" restaurant. I ordered the steak and fries and my friend ordered the shrimp salad. They were tasty enough albeit pretty overpriced for what you get. All in all I probably wouldn't come back unless a friend specifically wanted to go here. read more

The vibe was fun and whimsical for a girls day! We were greeted & seated promptly. The waitress was very attentive as were the other staff members. The food was just ok. I think we expected something Ana ing. We enjoyed our visit. The drinks were good just a little overpriced. If we go back we'll get the pizza. It looked tasty. read more

This was my second time at Paradiso after a visit 3 years ago left a bad taste in my mouth. I had a terrible experience and honestly didn't feel a need to come back, but my mom wanted to come here for her birthday brunch yesterday so I thought why not give it a second chance. The other reviews are spot on in terms of lack of parking-- make sure you definitely give yourself enough time to park your car if you don't plan on using valet because Bishop Arts is honestly always busy no matter what day you go. This restaurant is a great photo op for the girlies! It's super beautiful and the decor just transports you to another place- you forget you're even in Dallas, it's so gorgeous. Our server only stopped by our table to take our food/ drink orders, but honestly, don't expect any great super over-the-top service here. It's nice and all, but no one seemed to be going above and beyond or even trying to provide a super memorable experience for their customers. I don't even remember our servers name. The food was good. We had ordered the Marinated Burrata ($18) with strawberry jelly/jam which was surprisingly a yummy combo. The sourdough was burnt though (lol) not "toasted" like described on the menu. For our mains, I got the Avocado Eggs Benedict ($19) and my mom got the Shrimp Salad ($24) and both were genuinely good! My mom's salad had a super refreshing vinaigrette ( perfect for a hot day outside! ) I was a little surprised to be honest, just based on my last experience. It was a nice time and the food was good. Restaurant and bathrooms seemed clean and organized. Service- don't expect much. Good place for a fun, cute, photo op brunch in Dallas. read more

My sister brought me here for my birthday. The staff didn't really acknowledge it but that's ok! It late on a Tuesday and we were sat immediately since they weren't busy. Our server was nice but didn't come by enough imo, and our hostess noticed and took our drink orders at the beginning. I will say that he was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. As always the space is beautifully decorated, with soft pinks and flowers flowing down from the bar ceiling. The food was delicious. I loved my pasta and how unique it was. Those thick noodles were cooked to perfection. My sister has a sensitive stomach and was happy that the pork chops were yummy AND didn't trigger her digestive issues. We didn't get dessert because the amount of food we ate was enough, but I told myself we can go back and enjoy it a different day. If it wasn't for the slow service it would've been 5 stars for sure. read more

Beautiful restaurant. Everything is a photo op. Server was very nice but unfortunately they were grossly understaffed. He was never able to check on us after the food arrived and my steak tartar was flavorless. So i had to finally get up to find some salt. Not my waiter's fault, he had to wait on everyone inside and thats a rather large footprint to cover. And while everything else was good, the price for what we got was not a good value. Id try it again during a brunch hour. Hopefully theyd be better staffed. read more

We chose Paradiso to celebrate my mom's 65th birthday, and for a first visit, it was an overall good experience with a few notable highs and lows. First, be prepared for parking. The roads are very tight, and I ended up using valet, which is an added expense but probably the easiest option. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere transported you somewhere tropical. The décor is vibrant, colorful, and perfect for taking photos. While waiting for the rest of our party (our reservation was for 10 but we ended up with 8), the hostess kindly explained that we would be seated once everyone arrived and invited me to wait either at the outdoor high-top tables or inside at the bar. I chose outside so I could take pictures. While I was waiting, a manager (I believe his name was Gustavo) introduced himself and offered to make sure my mom received a complimentary birthday drink. That thoughtful gesture immediately stood out and set a welcoming tone for the evening. Once our full party arrived, we were seated promptly at our 6:30 reservation time. I'm very particular about cleanliness, so one thing immediately caught my attention. Although the table had been cleared, the seats still had food residue from the previous guests, and the floor beneath our table had not been swept. I asked our server, Chelsea, if it could be cleaned before we sat down. Unfortunately, the request seemed to be met with irritation rather than hospitality, and first impressions matter. The menu isn't large, but it offers enough variety without being overwhelming. Since it was our first visit, I asked for recommendations, but our server wasn't really able to guide us through the menu. As a kosher pescatarian, I ordered the Striped Sea Bass ($31) along with the Dreaming of Suze cocktail ($16). The cocktail was beautifully presented, although I requested light ice and received a full glass of ice instead. I also ordered tea, but it lacked flavor and tasted more like water. The sea bass itself left me wanting more. While there were two fillets, they were quite thin and served with the skin on. The highlight of the dish was actually the chickpea minestrone underneath the fish, which was flavorful and enjoyable. I don't mind paying premium prices for a meal, but I do expect the food to justify the cost, and this one simply didn't quite get there for me. Service also played a role in my overall rating. Our server was polite but fairly mediocre and lacked the warmth and personality that elevate a dining experience. With automatic gratuity added for larger parties, I couldn't help but feel that the service didn't reflect the required 20% tip. I always tip, but exceptional service should accompany exceptional gratuity. The reason this review is four stars instead of three is Gustavo. His attentiveness, kindness, and genuine care throughout the evening made a lasting impression. Before leaving, I made it a point to thank him personally because great hospitality deserves to be recognized. While Paradiso probably isn't a restaurant I'll return to because it doesn't align well with my dietary preferences, my mom thoroughly enjoyed celebrating her birthday there and said she would happily come back. If you're looking for a lively, tropical atmosphere with beautiful décor that's perfect for a girls' outing or celebration, Paradiso is certainly worth experiencing. read more

I love coming here. The ambiance is always amazing. Lots of different seating options. The service is normally on the slower end compared to other restaurants, only reason why I give it a 4/5 instead of 5/5. The food is good and the drinks are top tier. They have seasonal menus which I always look forward to. I did celebrate my birthday here and the staff was very kind and helpful to accommodate my party. I HIGHLY recommend having reservations in place read more

Vicktor rocked! Excellent service! Food was incredible, we tried many dishes, but I must say the oyster are a must order! They were from North Carolina. We had a big crew, so we sampled many dishes, fresh fries were tasty, the sea bass was really good, steak frites was another good choice, the steak was so tasty & tender, melted in my mouth like butter. I highly recommend the thunder kiss drink, it's seasonal so you must go now! Fantastic service, our waiter was very personally and friendly! read more

We got recommended by this place by a nearby shop when we asked for recommendations at Bishop District. I'm so glad she did because this place was picture perfect. I felt like I was in another world, I was obsessed with all the colors. The food was good but a bit on the pricey side for pasta, shrimp wasn't good or breaded. I still enjoyed everything we ordered, even the bathroom had the cutest decor. The service was very nice and even got our birthday girl a little birthday dessert. No reservation during lunch time and we got seated immediately. read more

The food was okay I got the steak and fritas which was eh, my favorite thing about this whole thing was honestly the bread for the appetizer but can't go wrong with that. If you're going for the ambience or special occasion then yes very picture worthy pics can be taken here other then that wouldn't crave to eat here. Service was great, very nice waiter he was on top of serving our waters and bartender was sweet too! Overall 5.5/10 read more

I do not adventure into Dallas too often, but had to schedule a lunch in the area. Paradiso was chosen relatively randomly, but ended up as a good choice.

The steak frites. bOMb. I love that the patio is open all year round and is dog friendly. Nina (my dog) has been shown so much love and warmth from the staff who were so kind to give her a water bowl with ice and when it got empty, refilled it with no complaint. I love the girl-vibes here at night and also during the day. The lunch menu is perfect and dinner vibes are just as nice however, because it's more feminine, I'd say to go here with girl friends on a ladies night out maybe not so much on a date night, but the area has so many options. There's a drink, I cannot remember the name of it right now but it is like drinking a cool breeze on a summer night. If I remember, I'll update. read more

Horrible experience. Sat down and ordered a double espresso and the price was 8$. They just added 2x espresso 4$ each. I live in Miami and never in my life I paid for a double espresso more than 4.50 and the guy was convincing me that it's the normal price. read more

This was my first time visiting, and I chose this restaurant to celebrate my 65th birthday. I originally made a reservation for six, but later contacted the restaurant and spoke with Gustavo, who was very accommodating and added four more guests without any issue. His professionalism was one of the reasons I felt confident choosing this place, along with the great reviews.When I arrived, I was amazed by the beautiful décor, and every staff member I encountered was friendly and welcoming. Our waitress,Chelsea, started off somewhat friendly, but her attitude changed throughout the evening. She seemed irritated when my guests asked for bread or when we requested someone sweep the floor where food droppings were left from the previous party.I ordered the rigatoni, and it had a nice kick of spice -- very good. However, the service from Chelsea was disappointing. My entire party noticed that she was not welcoming, and her demeanor made us uncomfortable. Gustavo mentioned she was one of their best servers, but based on our experience, I would hate to see their worst.I'm giving a four‑star rating because Gustavo went above and beyond to make my 65th birthday feel special. I would definitely return, but I hope not to be seated in Chelsea's section again. read more

Ambiance: FREAKING AMAZING , so so pretty from the bathroom, inside and out...5 stars Service: Great, Vanessa, my waitress was very sweet and attentive. The manager, Carla, was THE BEST! They took care of me and made my time there so special. 5 stars. FOOD & Mocktail: The drink was refreshing and the bread with the different hummus was super good. My entrée was okay. The pasta was a bit hard and tasted a tad bland. Plus, I should have added some protein instead of simply eating it (meat sauce). Nonetheless, my overall experience at Paradiso (my favorite decor and service) was 10/10 MINUS NOTHING!!! Want more authentic opinions?

Paradiso is amazing! I had the great pleasure of dining here for brunch with a friend for the first time last weekend while we were visiting the Bishop Arts District. From the spacious patio and stunning interior decor to the warm and welcoming host and servers and the delicious food, everything about this restaurant is spot on. I had the very tasty Chicken Paillard and ordered a side of the rosemary-garlic Parmesan fries (which I flat out devoured), and my friend said her turkey melt was top notch. We enjoyed leisurely conversation and appreciated the fact that our server didn't rush us through the meal (leaving extra time for people-watching). I couldn't get over the gorgeous colorful parasols and greenery hanging from the ceiling and the overall bright and airy decor. I raved about the eatery to several friends and promptly posted on my socials the same day. Definitely worth the drive from the north Dallas suburbs, and I can't wait to come back. read more

Beautiful restaurant which is guaranteed to wow anyone brought here on a date! Inspired by southern European food and decor - the food and drink offered is just as beautiful and delicious as the surroundings. I had the Greek lamb skewers and it was amazing - the cucumber salad underneath was the perfect accompaniment to the tasty lamb and the huge pile of flatbread was enjoyed by my date too! My date ordered the white bolognese pasta and it was an interesting twist on the traditional version - it was just enough pasta (European serving!) that allowed room for desserts read more

My customer from AT&T's HQ brought me to Paradiso. Being not far from the HQ of AT&T it was convenient. The staff was amazing. The service was efficient. The food was good to very good.

I came here during brunch with a group of 6+ plus for a birthday. TIP: 20% gratuity added when you have larger parties. Reservations were already made but it took about 15 mins for them to get our table ready. I started out with seasonal pina verde cocktail. It had a tangy spice to it. It was just okay to me, it really didn't catch my attention. I probably wouldn't order it again. I started off with the broccoli frito. It was really good! It's made of fried broccoli, cauliflower with shaved parmesan. My main entree was the four cheese pizza. It was decent, not the best pizza I've had but it did its job. Otherwise it's a pretty place to take pictures, and come for a fun time with friends. read more

Had a lovely bachelorette brunch for 10 people. Tucked in charming bishop Arts district, it's perfect for a stroll after. First time being at the restaurant and impressed with how cute everything was. Vibes were 10/10. Everyone loved their food! Pasta, sandwiches, and pizza were all delish but I can't stop thinking about the little gem salad with the lemon dressing. Will be back! Street parking mostly. read more

Pro Tip: Sort the reviews by newest first so you're not relying on outdated opinions. I checked out the new pizza program today, where everything is made in-house or sourced from small-batch farmers in Italy. I'd love to see the menu include the names of these purveyors--if you're like me, you enjoy a good fact check! Now, onto the pizza--wow. The hand-stretched mozzarella truly elevates it. I went with the soppressata made with black truffles and it was phenomenal. Highly recommend. It's great to see the quality of the food getting even better. I'll definitely be back to try more. I will also add that the professionalism received at the bar by Lalo and the other bartender (sorry I didn't get your name) was top notch! read more

Really cute spot to lunch at! We loved how welcomed we were and in the afternoon on a Saturday, we were seated right away. We got great recommendations from our server and she was so helpful in making sure the hubs could order a pasta dish with no dairy. He ended up getting a rigatoni dish made without dairy. Just FYI, don't order spaghetti if you have a dairy allergy because it is made with dairy! I had my eye on the burrata with a strawberry tomato sauce, yeee! And my daughter wanted to get the margharita pizza. Wow, the burrata comes with several crisped sourdough slices and the burrata itself comes in a glass jar. So cute and perfect to keep it chilled. The sauce... I have no words. The pizza comes out perfect with crunchy crust and lots of sauce and tomatoes (whole) on top. Beautiful presentation with taste to match. All in all, the hubs pasta dish was the star of the meal. I didn't even get a taste as he devoured it so quickly. This place hits all the marks, aesthetically beautiful, spacious, friendly staff, accommodates allergies, well cooked dishes, beautifully plated... what more could you want?! And bonus, we came at just the right timing, we snagged a parallel parking spot right in front. read more

Paradiso, Dallas A Birthday Dream Come True If you're wondering where to eat in Dallas, let me make it easy, Paradiso is that girl. I celebrated my birthday here this year after a relaxing visit to World Springs, and everything about this place was giving earth sign goddess energy. From the lush greenery to the cozy-chic patio, the vibes were immaculate -- soft, feminine, and so me. It felt like a place made for dreamy dinners, golden hour pics, and moments that feel like main character magic. I ordered the rigatoni with shrimp, rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. My husband devoured his wood-fired soppressata pizza, and don't even get me started on that fresh basil... it was giving. To top it all off, the staff surprised me with a smooth red velvet cupcake that was actually moist and delicious. A birthday blessing, truly. The service? Thoughtful and warm. The atmosphere? Elevated but welcoming. The location? Right on Bishop, perfect for strolling through the arts district after dinner and checking out the cutest shops and bars. Paradiso is a whole vibe, and for me -- a Dallas-born girl -- it was the perfect full-circle birthday dinner. read more

My husband and I had an off day together and decided to check out Paradiso. We didn't have a reservation, but luckily they were able to seat us--though I'd definitely recommend making one, because the place was packed. I ordered a bottle of champagne for us to share, and our server was absolutely amazing--super attentive and friendly. For food, I went with the rye pappardelle, and it was packed with flavor. The rabbit was incredibly tender (sorry, post-Easter guilt!). My husband got the linguini and hasn't stopped talking about the roasted pine nuts since. We had a great time and will definitely be back! read more
