Since open­ing in Octo­ber 1993, Par­adiso has long been cel­e­brated for its inno­v­a­tive veg­etable cui­sine and its ground­break­ing devel­op­ment of rela­tion­ships with grow­ers, pro­duc­ers and cheesemakers.

Now some­thing of an iconic insti­tu­tion in the Cork din­ing scene and the wider Irish food cul­ture, Par­adiso con­tin­ues to evolve and move for­ward, par­tic­u­larly since the arrival in 2023 of head chef, Miguel Fru­tos, who has lay­ered his own unique cre­ativ­ity onto the kitchen reper­toire, cre­at­ing multi-​course menus of elab­o­rate dishes focused on the best sea­sonal vegetables.

In the din­ing room, restau­rant man­ager and som­me­lier Dave O’Mahony matches the food to a wine pair­ing of nat­ural wines and, with his din­ing room team, pro­vides a relaxed, friendly and knowl­edge­able ser­vice to make every Par­adiso expe­ri­ence uniquely enjoyable.
