Our group of 5, of whom 2 eat here frequently, enjoyed dinner. We ordered two servings of trout, plus chicken enchiladas, scallops, and a classic chicken dish. Itâs nice to join friends at a restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and a wide variety of delicious, attractive dishes.

Cucina Paradiso is a regional Italian restaurant, meaning that we create weekly menu changes from the Northern part of Italy all the way down to the Southern part. All in a modern, contemporary dining room along with a professional staff.
Our family of four with two teen boys were out for dinner in Oak Park due to another event near there, and looked for an Italian restaurant. This had great reviews already. We are more great experiences to share. They provided breads with 3 different kids and olive oil with parmasean cheese and 4 olives that were soaked and slight pepper flavor. A great start. We started with the fried calamari and the brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were Amazing - with lemon and parmasean cheese on top. My son and I then tried the lobster bisque. This was different that most, with a brown color. It was broth based instead of heavy cream, and we both loved it. It was larger than cup for sure also. The best story was when my son commented that the soup only came with 1 toasted piece of bread, and about 30 seconds later the waitress showed up and asked if he'd like a few more pieces of bread to go with the soup. Wow! It's like she read his mind. Then I ordered the Pear pizza, which was very sweet and tasty. I only finished about 1/2 of it. My husband ordered the Margarita and similarly only finished half. Our teen sons, both over 6'3" who usually finish all meals, got the "full" portion size of pasta and both did not finish. Both the shells and the spaghetti bolognese were excellent. We didn't have room for dessert, so we got our leftovers to go.
Food Was "OK" at best. The Beef Green Curry was delicious and spicy just like in Thailand which very few Thai Restaurants try to do since Most Westerners (AKA Americans) cannot handle the spiciness of what Native Thai Taste or their tongues can handle for hot. Why I gave it 3 stars is because their Chicken Tom Kha soup had like a powdery garnish that I did not like appearance wise. It tasted OK for Tom Kha but was disturbed by this powder since this was the 1st time I saw Tom Kha appeared this way from a Thai restaurant. The Chicken Satay was great but they did not give enough cucumber as a garnish I think . Interesting that they use Black Dishes and Bowls since I can see how clean or how dirty the dishes we're. Another reason was that I was not given enough service for water since the Thai food was spicy as well as my Thai Ice Tea coming later. The desert was delicious too having the Thai custard drenched in hot chocolate. This was the 2nd time I've been here so I was a little disappointed this time at the service.
