Paradise Restaurant - Winnipeg

Came here for dinner on a weekday evening and was surprised how quiet it was. It was my first time coming to Paradise and really only knew about it after a recommendation from a co-worker. The restaurant is spacious though the renovations are somewhat dated.<br/ <br/ We were greeted and seated promptly and the waitress was very attentive throughout our meal. We were brought a basket of rolls that were fresh out of the oven and very delicious! My wife kept commenting how the bread was piping hot which she then proceeded to eat a whole roll.<br/ <br/ I wasn't particularly hungry so I ordered the a Paradise open faced sandwich with a side of house Italian salad. It seemed like the salad was tossed a bit too early and was somewhat soggy by the time it got to table, but the salad was well seasoned and the sandwich was very tasty. My wife enjoyed her chicken parm, she got it with a side of pasta with meat sauce. The noodle is cooked softer than most pasta places would so I wouldn't call it al dente. Strangely my wife likes softer noodles so she really enjoyed her entree.<br/ <br/ Service was prompt and they were very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely come back in the future if we're in the area.

I've eaten here many times and I've always left full and happy.  All of the pastas are very tasty and the pizzas are excellent.  The service is also top notch, I've never had a bad experience.  This is one of those places that you should definitely give a try!<br/ <br/ The Swizzle Styx dined here again this week (Oct6/16) and everything was excellent.

After driving past this restaurant for years thinking it was closed, I finally tried it out in July. We were expecting 6 people and were seated at a large 8 person table, but when 2 of our party didn't show up, the staff didn't make us feel like a burden for taking up half of a large table. Staff were very helpful with menu selection, when I couldn't choose between the tomato or cream sauce, he suggested to have both and go with the rose option not on the menu. I went with a ravioli dish and my partner chose the carbonara. The meal came with warm buns that were great for sopping up the sauce from the pastas. My meal was decadently perfect, although the carbonara wasn't as enjoyable because it was too bacony (not usually a problem), but the flavor was overpowering the dish. In general, I was impressed by the great service and generous portions.

I dined at Paradise for the first time yesterday evening and it was so good. There was five of us, and we made a reservation and were seated immediately upon arriving. The service throughout the evening was very good. Our server was very attentive, and had a sense of humour which made the experience more fun. When it came to the food, it was fabulous. Large portions, fresh italian pastas, presented nicely, awesome flavours. Such a great place to go if you are craving italian. The drink prices were very reasonable. The appetizers were so good, especially the what seemed to be neverending plate of calamari. Bruschetta and breadsticks were great. I would recommend this place to you if you want a nice meal at a good price. Glad I was invited to eat here.

This is not a place for hipsters and people who like Boston pizzas bland cardboard pizza. I have been going here since it opened in the 70s and love the real and honest atmosphere. The food is always delisious and the environment is casual not stuck up phoney like a lot of places  in Winnipeg. The portions are huge the sauces are authentic and delicious same goes for the veal and pasta. The bread sticks are amazing. Sure like others we have had some times were things were a bit off but who hasn't had a bad day. They used to include salad but because of the increasing cost of doing business they do not now. In a way a blessing because my wife and I would be full on breadsticks and salad and would take the main course home as we still take half of it home now. I hope they stick around for years to come too many good old resturaunts have disappeared and are replaced by soulless corporate shells of resturaunts full of soulless people with no taste buds. I am a old school guy who likes big portions and a place that feels comfortable where you come as you are . I care more about quality of the food served not how pretty it looks on a plate. Thanks Paradise for the many amazing meals you have served my family for over 30 years.
