We had dinner at Cafe Altro Paradiso last night and it was outstanding. The service was excellent, the staff friendly, and the food wonderful. The place was packed, and the noise level could, at times, be a little overwhelming, but all of us thought it was great and intend to go there the next time we're in town.

We went for lunch and it was not noisy, it is hard to find a restaurant where one could have a conversation these days. I hope dinner is the same.

This restaurant was absolutely incredible. We ordered the Carpaccio, which was a revelation, and the Duck Ragu Lasagnette. It was so incredible, we ordered the chef's cookbook on the spot. The Sommelier absolutely nailed the recommendation, matching it perfectly with our meal and spot on the budget mark we suggested. Our server was brilliant, and highly knowledgeable of the menu. She had obviously tried all of the offerings and gave her opinions when asked in a very helpful way. We will be back.

We came here for a celebratory dinner on Christmas Eve. Service was nice but not attentive and did not show interest. Food was average but lacks finesse. Perhaps they are better for business meetings.
