Being a Veggie I love this place, but so does my carnivorous husband. The combinations of flavours always read a bit a mad on the menu, but taste fabulous. This is the best restaurant in Cork and one of the best i've been to. more

We had heard lots about Cafe Paradiso and were looking forward to visiting this restaurant. The starter of Susi and tempura were heavenly. My husband had wraps which tasted amazing. But when we got to the main course disappointment! I had spinach and ricotta cheese with a almond pastry, very little pastry and way too much spinach. Visions of Popeye... more

Food was slow but bloody hell it was nice. Bit expensive but worth it for a once in a while treat & I think there was only 1 thing on the entire menu that I didn't like the look of. Rare enough I make it to Cork but will cetainly be back next time. Staff very good also & great... more

not cheap, but very clever and imaginative. Dennis Cottor's books are really beautiful too. In summary: high, high quality veggies. more

Being a vegetarian, it is like being a kid in a sweet shop whenever I go to cafe paradiso. Even my very carnivorous chef husband loves the place in terms of service, atmosphere but most especially the food. We love the new decor and if they had a fan club we would definitely join. It's a must visit everytime we... more

I have been to CP many times and have never been disappointed. The Food is world class, not just for a vegetarian food. I have been in Michelin starred restraunt around the world and this is the equal if not better than most. The prices are extremely reasonable. The style is pretty casual, but i like that. I love meat... more

Overpriced and over-rated. On more than occasion, I found the main course tasted the same the whole way through. Probably worth it for vegetarians that are starved of choice in other restaurants but The Quay Co-Op is so much better. more

Imaginative food, beautifully presented. Denis Cotter is a gifted creative chef who often combines elements which I would not usually be interested in, to make something wonderful. I can't wait to find an excuse to get back there! more

Cafe Paradiso really let me down. I had heard so many wonderful things about this restaurant and was super excited to eat there but, unfortunately, I do not reciprocate it's better reviews. Upon arrival, my hopes remained high as I viewed the fantastic decor of the cafe, but this delight was short-lived. I found the service to be very poor.... more
