I had a lovely brunch at Altro Paradiso recently, and it was quite enjoyable!
Food: The dishes were both creative and flavorful. I tried the avocado toast and the ricotta pancakes, both of which were delicious. The fresh ingredients really made a difference, and I appreciated the presentation.
Service: The service was friendly and efficient. Our server was attentive and checked on us regularly. However, there was a brief wait for our food, which could be improved.
Atmosphere: The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a modern yet cozy feel. It’s a perfect place for a casual meal or a small gathering with friends.
Overall, I’d recommend Altro Paradiso for brunch. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu!

Very bad experience with the service.
We were served by a young, tall, blond waiter who was quite rude and unfriendly…
When we arrived, he didn’t even move aside to let us pass comfortably to our table, even though his coworker asked him cordially to move several times ...
Moreover, when we asked him about the menu, he lied and said that the fries were homemade when it clearly weren’t.
I believe a restaurant is about more than just the food service and attitude matter, too and this was RESLLY BAD..
The food was fine, decent, but nothing especially worth recommend in and definitely too expensive for this “experience”..

It's definitely not as good as the ratings say. You would think, because of the limited selections and over priced menu, their dishes would be more delectable and memorable. Definitely had better Italian fare at less known neighborhood restaurants.

We arrived here for a 6:45 PM reservation for my husband's birthday celebration with his family in town from London. Our server was pleasant but she did take a long time to check in between and during courses. We ordered plenty of food and it was fine. Pasta was good, my husband thought the chicken was bland and nothing special. We enjoyed the salad appetizers we ordered. The real kicker for us however was when the stone-
faced manager - who never smiled once all night- came over to our table at 9:30 PM and asked us to leave because they had other reservations. We had spent plenty of money, we weren't drunk or rowdy and we had literally just paid the bill. I have never in my life had a restaurant ask me to leave the way this one did. The fact that they claimed it was for reservations is laughable considering it was 9:30 PM and the crowd was winding down. Does she think they're Corner Store? It's laughable. Will never go back. That's not how to treat your guests.

Excellent food and good vibe. Highly recommend for a dinner with friends or with a significant other.
Such an incredible vibe here. Everyone is super nice, especially Grace. The food was not only delicious but the service was truly out of this world. Will definitely be back. I’m gonna be dreaming of the Pomodoro.

15 mins to order a drink 1 hour to order a bottle of wine (salad, appetizer, 2 pastas had come and gone). Asked 3x for help ordering a bottle of wine. By that point honestly was over it. You know when something might have been good at point...but now is puttering on the fumes of that w manhattan attitude and poor service. Solid 1 star for me. 340 (w tip) for two and wont ever be back
The service was terrible. Unprofessional hostess. Waited 20 minutes for a waiter to come over to the take. Food was extremely slow, 20 minutes between courses. Food was decent but not worth paying $50 an entree and $30 a starter to have such terrible service. Manager nowhere in sight.
Took such great care of my team getting us in and out for a sneaky workday lunch! Cacio e pepe was absolutely a highlight

The place was delicious but they sat us in the worst table possible. I felt like I was eating in a concourse at an airport in the middle of two walkways. We decided to keep our plans but hurry out of there.
We dined here recently to use a Chase restaurant credit in December. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our server was very curt and didn’t return to take our entrée order until we had already finished our appetizers. After that, she disappeared and never checked on us.
The busboy, however, was very pleasant and attentive, keeping our waters filled. Someone who appeared to be the manager checked in on us, took our dessert order, and ultimately rang us up. Once the bill was settled, our server reappeared only to ask when we would be leaving.
The food itself was fine, and the tiramisu was excellent, but the service didn’t match the warm, welcoming ambiance one expects from Altro Paradiso. Perhaps it was an off night, but overall, I don’t think this is a place worth going out of your way to dine at.

Amazing food and staff. My fiancée and I had our engagement dinner here. The ragú and cacio e Pepe lived up to the hype. The large portions of both were plenty for two. Lastly for dessert, we were a bit disappointed they were out of tiramisu, Our waiter, Sekou, made our night extra special with the mango sorbet and panna cotta. Both delicious.

This restaurant has a beautiful interior and the service is good, but I wasn’t impressed with the food. The antipasti mussels were just okay, the swordfish was too salty, and the spaghetti pomodoro was underwhelming. Overall, the food felt below average compared to the ambiance.
