Come for the view, stay for the food But serious though food is way better than I thought, they said good company makes for good food. The pork stew was a good portion with 2 eggs! Savory and sweet, and you can taste the fish sauce. I was planning on packing the leftovers but stayed longer and just ended up eating the rest. If you have a problem with cigarette smoke, heads up, it's like being inside a smoker Cash only!!!! They do have an ATM but plan for that!
Banh Mi was good! Coffee was strong ! Fries were crispy ! Parking lot was big ! Views were delightful! Get here early to avoid the crowd ! Love to smoke a good one after eating at the same table!
So we were looking at Yelp reviews and needed to find something quick for the kids to eat. Menu at Caffe Paradise looked decent so we ordered to go and drive there to pick it up. Didn't realize it was a bikini/hostess bar... Absolutely 5 stars and yes, wife approved, who do you think took this awesome photo with waitress in frame? *Oh yeah, the food was decent too. Would definitely order to-go from here again.
Such a great breakfast place I had the chicken chicharronnes, egg and grits so unique and delicious highly recommended
Best food. Best coffee. Best service. Best everything. Love the Atmosphere. I definitely recommend
