1st time dining & loved the restaurant. Server Rogelio very professional, help make the experience wonderful. Tagliatelle w/ bologna sauce perfect, delicate. All 4 of us enjoyed our evening. Authentic Italian preparations!

Cucina Paradiso is a true delight. Four of us went on a Saturday night prior to Mother’s Day. We had a reservation which helped as the place was bustling. We started with cocktails & wine and the brussel sprouts as an appetizer. We split a dinner salad and the portions looked full size. Our main dishes included the two specials of Branzino Meditteraneo (Sea Bass) and Striped Sea Bass baked with a Vera Cruz salsa. Both were delicious! One person got the pork and the other a pasta dish. Everyone was satisfied with their selections. Dessert was the tiramisu. It is made in-house. It was honestly just OK. I have tasted better as I make it a point to always order this specialty dessert at all Italian restaurants. Juan was our server and besides the food, he was the highlight. He was attentive and provided excellent service. He had a huge smile and a warm heart. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be back!

The best Italian restaurant in Petaluma. The food is fresh, the pasta is true Italian. The food never disappoints. Service is amazing. Full bar with an amazing selection of wines and spirits. It's a must try if you are in the Petaluma area.

Food and service was excellent. It was our first time. We had a dinner party of 14 people. The wait staff were very prompt. The only negative part of the meal was the bread. They brought out enough for five people. I had the ravioli stuffed with duck, it was fantastic. The sauce was delicious.

Honestly, I don't think you can order something without it being amazing here. The rigatoni alla carcerata was superb.

The food was excellent and the service was excellent as well. This was my first time visiting Cucina Paradiso, and I can't wait to return!
Parking: Street parking is often unavailable. The free parking garage is 2 streets west of the restaurant.
Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is accessible by wheelchair but the dining room is rather crowded, and the isles are narrow. I'm sure they would be willing to accommodate, especially with advance notice when you book your reservation.

We hosted a pre-wedding dinner here this past weekend for 25 guests. We had the option of eating in a private room, or outside along the river promenade (we chose the private room). Melina and Denis (owner/chef) could not have been more accommodating, and our sever, Juan, was terrific!
We had an ample election of food to choose from for the prix-fix dinner. The food, the service and the atmosphere all made for a delicious and memorable evening for the families of the bridal couple. I highly recommend Cucina Paradiso!

I stopped here for lunch on my way to San Francisco at the urging of a coworker. I'm glad I did. Small, intimate, genuinely Italian.

It makes a pleasant change to eat in a restaurant in America that has tablecloths and china! And the food was good too! A good place to go for a special occasion.
