    I had a lovely lunch at Paraiso with friends. We enjoyed delicious roast beet salad, tortilla soup, and a cheese quesadilla. All great, delivered by a very friendly and courteous server.

    Excellent Indian flavors with modern techniques and fusions. I came with a friend from Delhi, and it was truly a treat to experience each course from both a new perspective, but also to have my friend speak to how the ingredients they use were common fare from his childhood, and praising how they elevated these humble staples to new heights. The cocktails pack a major wow factor with the presentation, and the flavors are excellent. Service was great, and on par with the Michelin rating. Complements to the chef, who was so kind to meet us in person despite the heavy prep his team had ahead of Thanksgiving!!!

    We enjoyed our dinner - the chicken skewers were delicious. Our server was very kind and attentive. We were disappointed with the saganaki since we were going there for the cheese. It was just a plop of cheese and it wasn't browned or anything. They should probably take it off the menu if it's just going to be a slab of cheese.
