Died and gone to Greek Restaurant heaven! Was recommended to this little unpretentious diner by a friend. Obviously real Greek ownership based on the friendly and boisterous communications between the staff - like we were in Athens. Service fast, polite, clean, plenty of character. We had an enormous Greek salad with huge chunks of feta and stuffed grape leaves , best weve ever had, and the pork Souvlaki were enormous, dressed with Tatsziki and some sort of feta cream, overstuffed and wrapped in warm, thick pita. Just damn. Even the iced tea was good. Walked by the pastry case on the way out; dont ignore this baby. Got a chocolate dipped baklava "crown" stuffed with chocolate and white marscapone mousse and a "cannoli cake"... white cake with whipped marscapone mousse topped with a cannoli filled with marscapone and tiny chocolate chips. Perfect, not heavy, sweet but not overdone. Unbelievably good. Take a minute to peek into the banquet room in the back at the hand carved mahogany bar. This is truly a gem, get there now and get there often. In over 50 years of seeking out great diners, I have to put this one near the top of the list, if not at the top. Guy Fieri needs to come to this place - its that good. Enjoy!

Decided to try this place with my sister after always passing by it on my way here and there. Not very busy, especially for a Friday night, but I dont know why! Delicious food, pleasant atmosphere where I sat outside, and a very kind server who brought us her own little "specialty" of salt and sugar to go on the sweet potato fries since the chef doesnt really season them. Though I liked them plain, the "seasoning" she provided was extra good and a kind thought. Its always a gamble trying a new place especially in regards to price, but I thought this place was very well priced! I got the Gyro Plate and really liked it! Fun to eat because its so unlike anything I usually have! I was recently in Israel and was ALWAYS having pita bread so it was great to have a nice warm pita again! I think Ill be back for dessert. :)

Ordered a gyro & gyro platter. It was good just a little on the salty side. The waitress was attentive. No complaints in that dept except for over hearing the rest of the staff they cant wait to go home. Didnt show up at the last minute. We arrived an hour and half before close. Not expecting the world from a dinner. Just keep in mind thier prices are about the same as more upscale establishments. So if you want to go somewhere that you do not hear the music coming from the kitchen mixing with what is playing in the dinning area.... go else where.

If youre vegetarian have the felafel burger. Its great. But dont order the vegetarian pasta dish unless you ask for oil on the side or no oil. I think it had at least a quarter of a cup in the bottom of the bowl. The chickpea salad also came in a little bowl filled with oil and just a bit of something tart, maybe vinegar. This food would have been so good without all that oil. So I advise that you mention that and ask them to drain it first or something.

This place is great for authentic Greek, Mediterranean, and American cuisine and they have the most delicious breakfast options served until 2pm. Dont get me started on the dessert case which will have you drooling upon entering this quaint diner. If you want excellent service, friendly management and staff, and delicious food at a reasonable price, you must check this place out. It is certainly one of a kind!

The name suits it well, its a nice little diner thats pretty much its own paradise. The atmosphere is lovely, the staff are all wonderful and extremely sociable and easy to talk to. Ive gone here about four times now, and every single time I had a new person to talk/waitress, and they each were very nice and fun to chat with. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced in my opinion.

Family run business where everyone is friendly. Have eaten breakfast, lunch, and dinner at Paradise. Celebrated birthdays and had a wedding reception here. Food is delicious and price is reasonable. Alex chicken is a favorite of mine. Dessert is a treat in itself! Baklava Cheese cake is a must try! Delicious! Many other delicious desserts as well.

On the 26th of April my 17 year old granddaughter took me there as a surprise the day before my birthday. The service was exceptional and so was the food. While serving dessert they also surprised me with the bd song...I cried. It was the best day Ive had in a long, long time. Thank you DOnna and Paradise Diner for a great day.

My family (myself, hubby, 3 kids, mom-in-law) ate here for the first time this evening. We all had different Greek dishes. They were all authentic and wonderful. The desserts are also handmade and amazing (but very sinful). To top it off the service was exceptional as well. We cant wait to come here again!

My family has birthday lunches there several times a year and the food, atmosphere and staff are excellent My husband and I had breakfast there today. We both had omelettes, hash browns and rye toast Everything was delicious . We eat at Paradise Diner at least once a week and love the food and staff.

Great food, large selection, very friendly hard working staff. Staff made waiting for my food fun, they are truly gifted in the way they all navigate behind the counter and keep a light happy spirit in light of the heavy crowds and non stop patrons. Will definitely eat here again when in the area.

Very pleasant, good food, decent prices. We ordered the steak and eggs and 2 pancakes & 2 French toast platter. Would recommend to anyone passing through. The dessert case looked awesome. I almost ordered cake and coffee for breakfast. The rest of the menu looked really good too.

Good clean restaurant. The chicken parmesan was cooked very well and covered in a great marenera sauce. Topped with broiled provolone and parmesan cheese. Food came out very hot which is nice. Ill have to come back. My date had the chicken panini, she loves paradise..

Weve eaten here a number of times and always had a great meal. This evening, I had their Greek spaghetti, which was fantastic. Huge portion, so I ended up bringing half of it home. I learned, for the first time, what a dolma is. ..stuffed grape leaf. Delicious!

Recently caught up with a friend over breakfast on a early Friday morning at Paradise Diner and was very pleased with the excellent service and great food. The menu is varied and the food was served quickly and hot. I will definitely return.

This restaurant is an interesting mix of multiple genres of food. The food is fresh and tasty. The desserts are delectable. Their service is above and beyond. I will definitely be recommending it to friends and be back myself. Thanks Danielle!

Oh, this is my favorite place to eat and now my parents love it too. They drive down from woodbrige for breakfast on the weekends. The food is great and the staff is awesome!! Try the chicken and waffles you will not be disappointed.
