We just wanted to drop a line to thank you so much for our visit of this week. You made us feel very warmly welcomed throughout our stay and the food, as always was just fantastic. That truffley soup is a thing of beauty and I shan’t forget it. This was our first Paradiso breakfast and we were both completely stuffed – your portions are incredibly generous – and couldn’t believe the attention lavished on them. And great coffee! Can’t say better than that. The room was lovely too – I really enjoyed huddling in the throw and enjoying a read of the books and magazines listening to Brian Eno. Looking forward to the next visit.
Regards
Kylie and Andy

This must be a strange review to read . I actually heard about Cafe Paradiso from my English teacher , Mr.Darcy ( a friend of yours ) back in 12th grade in Tripoli , Libya ( 2003 ) when we were studying the Italian movie . It’s cool that I found this website .
It’s my bad luck that I haven’t been to it yet , but from the amazing reviews I read above , and from recalling Mr.Darcy’s perfectionism , I’m sure I wouldn’t be disappointed .
Keep it up !

Happily stumbled upon Cafe Paradiso when visiting Cork last June. We were starving, weary and carting around our 2 month-old babe. The lovely ladies welcomed us in and served us the most amazing fare!
Best cuisine we had in our 6 weeks in Europe.
Bravo!
We’ll definitely be back.

Had the most delicious meal tonight, can’t thank you enough. I LOVED not having to look for the vegetarian option _ Keep up the sensational work!

We’ve stayed in Cafe Paradiso twice in the last year or so, the first time my boyfriend proposed to me in one of the rooms and the second time was part of our honeymoon! I LOVE Cafe Paradiso, and not just for the food. Bridget was the perfect, perfect hostess, looking after us when our car got locked in the car park across the way and celebrating our engagement with us. We actually nearly cried when we saw the breakfast menu, it was so nice to be able to choose from everything on the menu. Of course we will be back! Ruth and James

After ‘discovering’ your website, I brought my husband to Cork (and Cafe Paridiso) for his 40th birthday celebration, Aug ‘06. We were certainly not disappointed and your restaurant lived up to our high expectations. Gourmet heaven!!!

I spent some days in Cork last autumn and found your book in a local bookshop. Seeing that you were from Cork, I decided to dine at the Café Paradiso. It was like in paradise – I was overwhelmed by the fine vegetarian food which tasted unbelievably good. Since returning home I have been cooking your recipes which reminds me of my visit to your restaurant. Thank you so very much.

Hats off! You do it so well. We had an impeccable evening. Yummy food – artfully conceived and presented. Attentive, informed service. Magnificent wines. If dancing were allowed you’d have footprints on your ceiling.

Mar 21, 04:49 AMFirst of all, I would take the music of “YES” to that deserted island. Their music lasts forever and ever and ever, so one could never get bored.
I am surprised that there are no other New Yorkers writing entries here or talking about your cookbook which I will soon purchase. I hope to visit Cork (for the first time) sometime in 2007 …and from the reviews I have read about your place, would definitely consider staying/eating at Cafe Paradiso. My brother Will is chef over here…currently working at “Frankie Sputinos” in Brooklyn (sorry, we are not vegetarians…Mom and Dad raised us on meat and potatoes)
but perhaps a visit to your restaurant would permanently alter my palate—for the better.
I have been considering giving up meat for many years but have yet to take the plunge 100%.
Until my visit, I wish you continued success with your restaurant, hotel and cookbook writings.
Sincerely, Margaret
