Paradiso – Philadelphia – USA

The vision for Paradiso Restaurant & Wine Bar was to open a stylish, modern, seasonal Italian restaurant in the oldest Italian-American district in the country. In doing so, Rinaldi brought a fresh approach contrasting with some of the traditional red sauce restaurants that dominated at the time. Ten years later, Paradiso’s continues to innovate and has paved the way for transforming East Passyunk Avenue from a retail corridor into one of the country’s hottest restaurant districts.

From Paradiso’s open-kitchen to its marble bar, the restaurant contains a sophisticated and inviting atmosphere. Sip on a seasonal specialty cocktail and chat with affable bartenders; enjoy an expertly set table, complete with crisp tablecloth, polished glass wear, and silver, or head upstairs to a well-orchestrated private event.

— Chef Rinaldi and her team look forward to welcoming you to Paradiso. Grazie mille!
