" I don't often leave reviews, but I felt compelled to after dining here. It’s hard to find a truly authentic Italian restaurant, and Paradiso really gets it right! The owner often stops by tables to chat, and you can tell they care about their guests' experiences. The portions are generous, and they are always innovating the menu. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my go-to spot for casual Italian dinners in Elizabeth City! The food is consistently good, and I appreciate their focus on using fresh, local ingredients. The gnocchi was fluffy, and the sauces are house-made, which makes all the difference. The environment is family-friendly which is a plus for nights out. Highly recommend for pizza as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" You get a lot of praises for your food. However, we waited far too long for it. I understand everything is fresh and made to order, but it led to a frustrating experience. The food was blissful once it arrived; the shrimp and grits were everything I hoped they'd be! The drinks were excellent too, but I was a little annoyed by the wait time. If you can be patient for great food, this is your place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough about how impressed I was with Proof AKA Paradiso! The homemade pasta was such a pleasant surprise; it really elevates the dining experience. I had the lasagna, which was gooey and comforting. The salad had a fantastic homemade dressing, very flavorful. Can't forget to mention the dessert—a generous serving of their famous Tiramisu. The service was fantastic, very attentive without being distracting. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Proof AKA Paradiso for lunch, and I had the best time! The pasta salad was refreshing and a perfect starter. The vegetable lasagna was phenomenal, bursting with flavor. The server was really knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. The outdoor seating area provided a stunning view of the river—such a lovely vibe! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here for dinner and really enjoyed the experience. The atmosphere is lovely, especially during sunset. My friends and I shared a few appetizers which were delightful. The fried ravioli and calamari were the hits! For the main course, I ordered the eggplant parm, which was good but a tad too greasy for my liking. My friends had no complaints about their dishes, especially the sea bass. The service was on point, very friendly staff. I’ll definitely give it another go to try different dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely lunch here. The service was prompt, and the atmosphere was bright with a charming waterfront view. I enjoyed the pesto pasta, which was perfect for a summer day. I appreciate that they use local ingredients. The portion sizes were satisfying, and I couldn't finish everything. I learned that their pizzas are also highly recommended, so I’ll have to try that next time. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)
