Restaurants in Paradise

“Best fish n' chips I've had in on the Avalon Peninsula, honestly. Fish was unbelievably fresh, thick chunks of beautiful flaky cod, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Lady behind the counter was a sweetheart too!”

“The food and service at Pur & Simple is always 10/10. It's been a great addition to the area & the restaurant is gorgeous. Jennifer & her team are so welcoming. My go-to is one of the Egg Benedicts & a Latte Bowl!”

“Excellent vibe. I have enjoyed every time I've been to Banished.”

“edit: had the dinner for 4 and of course BBQ pork dim sum and it was DELICIOUS and so much food. Will definitely be back. Just posting here. Jin Dragon ran a contest for redesigning their logo and I was one of the chosen winners. I just want to say thank you so much for the thoughtful little gift. A handwritten letter (no one really takes the time to do that anymore) and a lovely wearable dragon pin ( I was born in the year of the dragon 🐉) and a wall calendar. Also their BBQ pork dim sum is to die for. You will not regret it.”

“Job well done, team Paradise.”

“I came to this booster juice with two of my friends and the sweetest girl was working there. I really wish I asked for her name. My two friends got smoothies but I didn’t because I was short on money. I went to use the bathroom and when I came out, the girl behind the counter had put the leftovers from one of my friends smoothies in a little tiny cup for me and she cut a straw so that it would fit. She was very kind and definitely made my day. Just in case anybody that works in the store reads this: that girl deserves a raise. She has excellent customer service and made delicious smoothies. I don’t know her name but if it helps I came in at about 11:00am on September 7th.”

“This is the best Chinese food I've had in the St. John's area. My husband, who after many years of living here has never liked any of the Chinese food that he has tried, also said that it was really good. The chicken balls were fluffy with tender pieces of all white chicken in them...just the way chicken balls should be, none of that greasy batter stuff that you usually get at other places. Other dishes that our table tried and enjoyed were Beef and Broccoli, Chicken Soo Gai, Lemon Chicken, Vegetable Noodles, rice, and egg rolls...all excellent. The food was fresh and just salty and flavorful enough without being too salty....most definitely not bland. The service was okay...neither the best or the worst. I don't usually go to a Chinese restaurants for the atmosphere so no comment there. Overall it was great, and I think we found our go to Chinese place.”

“The best Subway in town! I just want to tell the owner: if you want your business to be truly respected, ensure that your female employees receive the best salaries and the respect they deserve.””

“It’s been a while since we’ve been there, the times we were there, they were a great crew! Good sense of humour, speedy and they make some good pie!! If you’re in the area, drop in and give them a try, you’ll have some for a late night snack or lunch the next day!”

“It was really good and we didn’t have to wait long.”

“Highly recommend this location
Had the teen burger meal with fries and root beer. Best burger I've had in a long time, from a fast food place. It looked just like in the picture. All fresh ingredients. Teen burger perfection slid into a simple paper pouch, almost too nice to eat lol Was so yummy!
So happy I decided to drop in to this A&W today. The care that goes into this kind of presentation does not go unnoticed by people such as me, thank you.
The young person on the drive thru window was so kind and pleasant as well. An all round great experience. I will be back 🙂”

“Love, love, love, the street corn flat bread! Need it in my life 🌽🌮🫔🌯”

“Great team. Convenient and fast. Tonight was Halloween, and despite only having two staff at first, they were courteous.

My only recommendation would be for them to call out the names of pickup orders if it’s busy.”

“Love the blizzards, turtles is definitely my favorite!

Parking: There are only 3 parking spaces in front of the door. The rest is on the other side if the drive thru which can b3 dangerous to cross if people aren't paying attention.”

“Exceptional customer service. Their delivery team and store workers are always top notch. Delivery is fast and they always are so nice. Fresh pizza and the potato chip nachos are a favorite of mine. I love the slices to go too - always delicious & fresh.”

“Had a very tasty birthday cake from your place this evening! It was very moist and delicious and the icing was so good, not sweet. Thank you so much!”

“Scott and his crew at Coffee Matters are second to none! I recently ordered their box lunch for a work event with 70+ people. We have many folks with dietary restrictions, and not only was everyone accommodated, everything as absolutely delicious. There are options galore, and for catered lunches, it’s definitely the best bang for your buck in town. They also deliver to you, making everything a breeze. I couldn’t recommend their services enough!”

“Amazing food and friendly staff. Worth checking out!”

“a nice clean quiet place with very friendly helpful staff I would recommend it to anybody”
