Best Restaurants for Creative Cuisine in Bloomingdale / Brookland

I had a lovely lunch at Paraiso with friends. We enjoyed delicious roast beet salad, tortilla soup, and a cheese quesadilla. All great, delivered by a very friendly and courteous server.

Excellent Indian flavors with modern techniques and fusions. I came with a friend from Delhi, and it was truly a treat to experience each course from both a new perspective, but also to have my friend speak to how the ingredients they use were common fare from his childhood, and praising how they elevated these humble staples to new heights. The cocktails pack a major wow factor with the presentation, and the flavors are excellent. Service was great, and on par with the Michelin rating. Complements to the chef, who was so kind to meet us in person despite the heavy prep his team had ahead of Thanksgiving!!!

Excellent brunch menu! The service staff could be a bit more attentive, but no complaints outside of that.

Everything was cooked to perfection and the staff was attentive and helpful. Food was reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

Great food and service. We had two young children with us and they took lovely care of them bringing their food right away and giving them dessert as a bonus. A lovely evening was had by all.
