Cafe Paradiso

Fantastic place!!!! The staff is great the food is awesome the wine perfect. Parking is very very limited but the walk is small town shops and full of gifts and such so shopping to the Cafe is a must. Can't say enough about the pleasantries of this restaurant.

I had the Lasagna and it was delicious the bread, butter and oil was so good. The atmosphere is quaint and cute. My food arrived very quickly and wad warm. My waitress was very kind and gracious. I would highly recommend Cafe Paradiso.

Pasta was delicious. Service was excellent! Restaurant was charming. Eggnog cheesecake was yummy!

Reservation are not required but at 7:30pm it was full and it only took 15 mins if that for people to get a sit that didn't call ahead. Waiter was so very nice and accommodating. The food we ate was top notch. It was like we were in Italy. The decor was Italian setting even the sidewalk seating outside.

Absolutely the best food bar none. The bread to start with is perfect! We typically have the Mushroom Ravioli with different sauces. Our server is the best! I highly recommend this to anyone

Small place on the Square in the center of town. I've been there handful of times usually on the weekend, they are typically packed, but they do take reservations. Service is always friendly and usually quick. Selection of Italian dishes, as well as a choice for steak and typically two choices for fish. They have a very friendly vibe, as I'm sure they have many local returning customers. Definitely worth a stop if you're headed that way.

Food is excellent, my husband and I split a margarita pizza, salad, and they're delicious bread! ( he also always has to get a bowl of their homemade soup)We have never had a bad experience, and the waitresses are very attentive. Highly recommend if you are in Urbana !

We spent the early afternoon at the local flea market and were ready for a good meal. Cafe Paradiso delivered in every way.Walking in, the atmosphere is charming and welcoming. Staff is extremely attentive and accommodating, as well as friendly. The beautiful smell of garlic hits you immediately and wakes up all of your senses.We had no wait. We were there late afternoon. We were waited on immediately. The server offered many good suggestions. I was craving garlic and ordered the roasted garlic soup combined with the tomato soup (recommended by our server). And it was delicious! The bread was tasty and fresh. We asked for a second round. My "build your own" pasta with spicy Italian sausage and creamy pesto satisfied every one of my food cravings. It was seriously one of the most delicious pasta dishes I've ever had. My husband was very happy with his Fettuccine Alfredo. It's the first time in a LONG time I finished an entire meal on my own.Stuffed full with amazing bread, creamy delicious pasta, and a nice chianti, the server asked if we were interested in dessert. I mean, I'm STUFFED.Of course I'm interested in dessert! The tiramisu is SPOT ON! So delicious and very worth the calories!Overall, we will make the 1.5 hour drive just to eat here and shop to charming downtown. Do not miss Cafe Paradiso when you're in the area. Better yet, make Urbana a destination!

Wow! The food, the atmosphere, and the service were all amazing! I recommend the sausage lasagna and the lemon cream cake. Both were excellent. This is coming from someone who cooked professionally for years and learned to cook in my Italian grandmother's restaurant. Keep up the great job and thank you!

Food is delicious and for a good value! Italian ambiance makes your meal very enjoyable.
