Went to visit a friend in S.I. and we came here for some drinks. I loved that its by the water. They had music and a space for dancing, which is cool. It had a laid back vibe. The Fried Calamari and Coconut Shrimp were very good. The menu has a lot to choose from. The service is good. The beers were a good price and the Jameson was an average price. I would go back again if in Staten Island.
Excellent fast service. Excellent atmosphere and view. Great date nite steak special. The rice balls were killer. Chicken Francese was top notch. Wasn’t crazy about the salmon but overall this place is a hidden gem. Very large menu. The Banana bread pudding is also amazing. There was no Trump flag displayed at Ruth says. I wish I had seen one, I’d have tipped heavier.
I had my son’s 1st birthday party here and it was amazing. Everything from the room to the food to the service was awesome. Lisa was so helpful throughout the whole process she helped my vision come to life and the day was perfect! Vinny Steve and Lisa are amazing I can’t wait to come back !
The staff (valet, hostess, wait staff, bussers) were super nice and friendly. It was nice to be met with smiling faces and helpful attitudes. The dipping bread they brought out was insanely delicious. I had the eggplant parm sandwich and it was huge and sooo good. This place is pretty big and it overlooks the water and boats. It was cloudy when we went, but you could still see the sun rays peeking through the clouds, so I can imagine this having a lovely view with clearer skies. We ate outside and although it was hot and ridiculously humid, the cabana we sat at had a ceiling fan, so that and the breeze from the water really made it a million times more tolerable.
Great food,service excellent, security very professional! Had a nice relaxing dinner.Then danced the night away..bar tenders and waiters excellent! Lucky in the house!!
Excellent bar with quality of drinks. The white russian they make is amazing. The food is nicely prepared to complement the drinks. Nice Djs for having fun, and you can have a gathering and talk to one another. The staff is professional and polite. Will visit this place again in the future.
Was there for an engagement party, room was too small for the amount of guests. The salad and pasta were served, but the main course was buffet style, there wasnt enough room to walk passed the line to get back to your seat. They served chicken franchaise, chicken tenders, fries, sausage and peppers, and chicken parmesan. THEY RAN OUT OF FOOD!!!!!! They ran out of clean dishes, the water glasses on the table had lipstick on all of them when we arrived. We had to ask many times for grated cheese for the pasta. When dessert was ready, also buffet style, they didnt even serve coffee. You had to get it yourself. The only thing I can say positive about the evening was that the view is beautiful and the drinks from the bar were good.
Kudos! To Management/Owners for hiring and retaining the utmost Professional Security Team. Each Security Officer TRULY cares, acknowledges you. i.e. Do you need anything? Feeling well? and the alike. I have been to Paradise on a few occasions and NEVER has any of the Wait Staff, Security wavered. Thank you for all each of you do. BTW All played dishes well received - Nice job to chef & kitchen team.
Im sad to say but The food was mediocre ! Very good service, the waitress and waitress were really friendly and good but I dont recommend the food.
Unfortunately our excitement to try this new place for our anniversary ended quickly. After being seated inside, we were asked if we would like to sit outside, as the waiter felt it was hot inside by the window and the place was empty. Not even sitting 2 minutes and a very rude waitress approached and said we could not eat outside. As I tried to explain to her that a waiter offered us to eat out there, She again rudely said absolutely not. So absolutely not was I going back and forth like a yoyo. So we left before even looking at the menu and will not be going back.
Don’t really know much about the food and service, but they had Trump flag, we left.
Went for wife birthday dinner 7/22. Got there at 7:30pm. They had a live band that was so loud that the guy checking us in couldnt even hear me. Had to eat outside because inside conversations were impossible. Never saw anything like that at dinner time. Outside was subjected to cigarette and cigar odors at times. Service not great and our server rarely came to check on us. Took a long time to pay. Food was OK but expensive and portions not overly generous. I liked it better when it was Waterside.
Unequivocally one of the worst experiences Ive ever had at a restaurant, quite literally anywhere in the world. Today is Mothers Day, but we were seated after docking our boat. At the beginning, the young woman serving us spilled a tray of drinks on me, which I am not too upset about because things happen. She is learning and definitely needed more guidance and support from her managers before being ready to serve. However she was kind and apologetic, and I do not fault her much for the rest of our experience.With a party of 8, all of our food came out at different times. Not merely a couple minutes, but over 20 minutes. By the point that the remaining food had come out, the manager decided to act childish and tell us he would be voiding our check and told us to never come back. Our complaints were merely addressing that the food was cold, beers were warm, and half our table had not been given their food. At no point did we speak aggressively to the manager until he decided to become irate and blow off our entire table. In my years of travel and dining I have never experienced such an unreasonable manager that couldnt handle a relatively easy to fix complaint.We had many friends who ate there earlier as well that noted that the food was not worth the trip but had decided not to mention anything to management. If you cannot accommodate more tables, simply tell people there is a wait to avoid providing a terrible experience. I can be sympathetic to a degree as someone who has worked in hospitality before but the behavior of this manager was completely uncalled for. We are part of a boating club and will let our friends know that this establishment should be crossed off the list of places to enjoy a break from a ride. Incredibly sad that a place in a prime location with so much potential is so poorly managed. To the owner, I would recommend actually training your manager as he has a temper and apparently cannot handle simple complaints. We tipped the young woman who was just extremely kind and apologetic because she is not responsible for his behavior, but you all need to do better.
AAA+++ great Food, great customer service and fast. Good place to your family & Enjoy the ocean view.
The low life bold bouncer at the front door stole $100 from me never going there again.
I couldnt even give it a star. Same as others, food was horrible. My friend ordered a steak and it was all fat. She sent it back and nothing was said. We get the bill and they charged us for it. The owner came out and was rude. He said they get people returning food all the time so they have a no return policy which is odd. I told him people return the food because the food is horrible. He had his bouncers come over which was the funniest thing. You can get a better meal at White Castles
NYE 2023/2024 was spectacular!Dinner was served promptly; upon entry. Cocktails were flowing with genuine enthusiasm for all to have a Happy New Year!The DJs were so pumped and dance floor was full. Balloons and streamers added to our evening.I am very grateful to everyone on Team Paradise for your attentiveness.Kudos! To the Owners, Chefs, staff and all Bartenders.Thank you all, again.
Extremely rude girl answered the phone when i was just asking some questions and gave me a crazy attitude i hope she realizes her attitude impacts the business10:30 wednesday july 3rd
The food was decent, portions on appetizers were a little skimpy. Atmosphere is nice overlooking the water and marina. The parking lot is not great, all gravel and not good for heels, and I’m not a fan of valet. The service wasn’t the best. Waiter couldn’t be found.
From the first time my husband and I went we were treated like family, service is great. Food is delicious. We have been here as a party of two, we have brought larger groups and last night had a party of 50. Every single person working there was amazing. Special thanks to Steve and Lisa!
Lets start off it was later in the evening on mothers day and the crowd was dying down. So there was no excuse for poor service. Our party of 8 drinks came out wrong and warm. We ordered some appetizers and entrees. When half of the food came out it was cold. We asked to speak to a Manager. When he came over and we tried to explain the multiple problems with dinner he immediately lost his temper and told us to leave and walked away. He did not want to hear any of the multiple problems. I have been to many restaurants in my life and never had such a childish and unprofessional response in my life. We also knew 2 other larger parties there today which had a similar experience with cold food and incorrect orders, but they did not want to ruin there experience with their wives and mothers, so they did not complain. I will never return to this place and will explain in great detail to many people how this place operates.
What a refreshing place to go to on Staten Island. I went there with some good friends - who heard it had new management and worth checking out. Definitely did not disappoint and we got so much more than we expected. Food was fantastic but the fun atmosphere was so unexpected. There’s a community/friendship and nightlife vibe there perfect for a girls night out. I will also bring my husband here for a nice dinner with a relaxing view. Would definitely recommend going with a group or a date night!!! PS recommending the drunken clams! Loving the name and the taste was yum!
Food is regular, service is trash and u get Staten Islands top jerks in the crowd
Was a little pricey. Food was delicious but everything was Ala carte . Should offer some specials especially for lunch instead of same pricing as dinner . Value was not on par with other similar restaurants. Service was great and views were really nice from outside patio.
Terrible food and service. Animal Burger was super dry and very well done even though I ordered it medium. Had a single slice of avocado and a single strip of bacon on it. Not worth $18 whatsoever. Waitress basically disappeared and couldn’t even get a glass of water. Valet brought the wrong car. Don’t come here.
Went to this restaurant on the Friday after Thanksgiving at about 6:30 PM. The parking lot was completely empty, not a good sign for a restaurant. My husband said we should find another restaurant, but I decided to try it, the 1st time there.we wanted to find a restaurant that was in the neighborhood we live in. Very odd being the only 2 customers in the restaurant. I ordered stuffed flounder and he ordered broiled filet of sole. Our food was delivered about 30 minutes after being ordered(another bad sign)when the kitchen could not be busy(only customers). Both dishes had no taste whatsoever. At this point, we decided to leave, eating only a couple of bites. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. On a scale of 1-10, we both would give this place a 1. The manager came over, but we were done. He offered another meal but we refused, being it would probably be another 40 minutes or more. Went home and ate there. NEVER will be back.
The food is awesome the comedy is insaneThe bartenders and the waitresses are amazing @ what they do and @ their craftAll Staff there from top to bottom want to make sure that you walked out of their establishment with a beautiful experienceThe atmosphere is outstanding inside and out. This is a place you have to experienceThank you for reading Appreciate your time Pleasant Journeys my friends Cheers 🍻

First time there the food was delicious atmosphere very nice. I attended a retirement party there.I enjoyed myself!! 😊
The owner/manager was absolutely off-putting and immature. Cursing in front of and threatening customers. A defensive and immature individual that will deter many from revisiting.
Always feel like family here with this Tight Knit Family business. Entire Family and Staff are always willing to go that extra mile to ensure that you are happy that you chose Paradise Island..
From the owner to the Bartenders and music is excellent, great atmosphere parking services available all around great location!!

Rude staff that likes to attack people.
GREAT SPOT !
Best quality food and service.
Great place.
Horrendous
Well where do I even start? No one at this club is under the age of 55. The music is absolutely terrible. They might as well hold a mic up to a car radio that’s blasting 70’s on 7 because that’s what the so called DJ was playing all night. The best was that there were 7 security guards in a space that was at best 20 ft wide and long. The service was not bad in the beginning. The wrong order was brought out to me, which was okay. But then I waited 40 mins for a drink while eating. I was served chili peppers instead of my drink. If they want to do better, I would attract a younger demographic because I saw a lot of people leaving because of the atmosphere.
Great place, and can dock and dine by boat.
