Proof AKA Paradiso

The pizza was the best I've had in a long time. The lone server seemed to be the only one who didn't call in sick, other than the cook. There were a few messy tables & it took a while for our food, but everything tasted great!

Food is ALWAYS great. Everything is quality made, especially pastas, and sauces.
This place is a cut above compared to other Italian food in this area.
4 stars on atmosphere just because noise can be somewhat elevated because of the structure of the main dining room, ie. Low, sound reflective ceilings. However, it does have a really nice location on the water with outdoor seating available as well.
We live about 45 min away in Chesapeake, but it’s always a treat when we can get here for a meal.
HIGHLY recommended!

Excellent flavor, presentation, and service. Just appetizer and salad tonight. Amazing in-house dressing on the Caesar, flavorful fried calamari served on a bed of flash fried collards (thin & crispy) and flash fried lemon, delicious fried ravioli with marinara and/or Alfredo. My Arnold Award 🏆😄 (will be back). 👍😋

Outstanding!!!! 10/10! Food was so fresh and amazing!! Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Andrew is awesome. We will be back often!!

Nice place overlooking the water. Excellent salads. Best dinner salad I have ever had. The apps are great and the main entrees were phenomenal. A must if you are in the area!

Food was great, I had the lasagna skillet, which tasted amazing, and the Masque salad, which was blackberries, walnuts and goat cheese.

I was on a work trip this week in Elizabeth City and always try to find the best local spots, avoiding chains as much as I can. After the first few days I tried Thai places and some local cafes. Food was decent but nothing to really recommend. That changed when I came to pick up some food from Proof. First off, really unique location, right on the water. The waitresses inside were very personable, telling me stories about the place and just chatting. I ended up ordering their lasagna which was rich and delicious. I wish I was able to stay and enjoy my time there because the interior was nice, music was good, and the drinks sounded tasty. If you're visiting Elizabeth City, give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed.
