" I visited Paraiso last month based on a friend's recommendation, and I wasn't disappointed! The queso fundido was a delight, and the fresh tortillas made for the perfect addition. The atmosphere was vibrant, and our waiter was attentive. Only wish the wait times were shorter. That said, I'll definitely be returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Paraiso Restaurant is a hidden gem! The moment I stepped inside, I felt transported to Mexico. The colors and decorations create such a warm atmosphere. I ordered the mole enchiladas, and they were absolutely divine - rich and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The server was attentive but not intrusive, and my water glass was never empty. I would highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Paraiso. It feels like a traditional Mexican cantina in the heart of the city. The fajitas were sizzling and full of flavor. Our server was knowledgeable and made great recommendations. I loved the vibrant, yet cozy atmosphere which is perfect for family gatherings. One downside was that our food took a bit longer than expected; however, it was worth the wait! A great spot for anyone craving legitimate Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited with my family last month, expecting a great time based on the reviews, and we were not disappointed! The carne asada was perfectly seasoned, and the kids loved their quesadillas. However, I was saddened to find that they had run out of guacamole. The service was wonderful, and we felt very welcomed throughout our meal. Even with a small hiccup regarding the guacamole, I can confidently say we will return for more delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the most beautiful dinner at Paraiso with my partner. The ambiance was romantic, perfect for a date night. We ordered the seafood platter and it was a feast for the eyes and the palate! The shrimp and fish were fresh and cooked to perfection. Service was attentive without being overly intrusive. We finished off with flan, which was rich and creamy. Highly recommend this place for a special evening out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last Saturday, I tried Paraiso for the first time and I was impressed! The menu had a great variety of traditional dishes, and I opted for the pozole. It was delicious! The flavors were rich and comforting. The only downside was the crowded space, but it added to the lively atmosphere. I look forward to going back when it's less busy to truly enjoy the experience. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for authentic flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally had the chance to try Paraiso, and it was everything I hoped for and more! The shrimp quesadillas and fresh salsa were amazing. Best interpretations of traditional cuisine I have found in Bridgeport. The staff was attentive and helped guide us through the menu. I wish they had a bigger selection of vegetarian options, but there’s plenty to love for anyone who enjoys authentic Mexican food. Can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
