Caffe Paradiso - Boston

This cafe is cute and dimly lit, has a bit of a romantic ambiance but make it European. The desserts are good you get exactly what you would expect. The pistachio martini is pretty strong, just how I like it : There is occasionally a man with a guitar playing live music and he goes from table to table performing. It's cute! Overall, a nice place to catch up with friends over drinks and dessert.

PROS: This is the most authentic Italian caffe I've ever been to. It has the Italian atmosphere, everything was made from scratch, the staff spoke Italian, the music was even on point. The order came out fast, large menu variety, and they prohibit you from working on your computer on the weekends so it prevents people from hogging the tables CONS: Scarce parking as its only street parking. it also gets very cramped inside OVERALL: I would definitely come and check this place out. Despite the parking issue, as long as you're in the area you'll love it here

Espresso Martini, affogato and cannoli are very good! Service was fast, and everyone was friendly and attentive. It was crowded and loud when we stopped in around 8pm, seating was very tight, not for big groups.

Caffe Paradiso Love!! Never disappoints! Four of us. Four perfectly perfect cannoli, 2 Cappuccinos from heaven and two delectable Hot Chocolates! We added 4 champagne cookies for a twist and they also lived up to standards! When in Boston Cafe Paradiso is my choice. I have been going there for over 30 yrs

Most disappointing pistachio gelato I've ever had. Fake flavor. Coffee gelato was also lacking in flavor. Too bad because it's a nice place.
