Everytime we have walked by here at Dinner time, it's been very loud. Which deters my father from wanting to eat here. Is there a time to go or a place inside of the restaurant that is less noisy? We like the food selection there, and hope that we can take advantage of this restaurant.

NOTE: A major disappointment for an E-Brand chain restaurant.
Had great hopes, but the eatery does not seem to improve. In fact,
over the period of the last year, seems to have retreated. Additionally,
the eatery is always much too loud. Lunch was adequate. Dinner was
seriously lacking.
 
Late afternoon or early evening is quieter. I think the live music starts at 6pm. We have been when we were the only people there. There is also a section toward the back of the restaurant that might be a little quieter but we have never been back there.
 

I had an ADR here for my January trip but canceled in favor of eating/drinking around the World Showcase... A friend of mine went to WDW for her honeymoon and went to Paradiso and raved about it, so I was definitely looking forward to it. Apparently it's a must for a tequila fan.

Also, when I was in DTD in the late afternoon, there was no crowd at all. Granted, this was majorly off-peak, but still.
 
On my next trip I will be doing a review of this restaurant and will probably post it either during my trip or the second week of November.
 
It's really difficult sometimes to find reviews on this board of restaurants that 1) are not in the parks or resorts and 2) don't take the dining plan. Personally I've never been to Paradiso but it's mostly because I don't want to be looking at the dead shell of the Adventurers Club next door. But I haven't heard many raves about it...most say it's just OK.
 
We have eaten there twice, both were a late lunch. No crowds at all. The food is ok, nothing special. After the first time we went I decided I would not go back....but I ended up at DTD with a horrible craving for mexican....so I went again! It really isn't bad, there are much better options for the money.
 
My Mom and I both agreed we had one of the best overall dining experiences EVER at Paradisio 37 in May. We had a reservation for close to sunset and waited for an outside table and it was well worth it. They had an accoustic artist playing outside that night and it was kind of loud, but he was really good and played great music. Our waiter was really great, and watching the sunset while listening to Bob Marley and Jack Johnson covers was fabulous.

Now, the food...

TRY THE CRAZY CORN! DO IT! You will absolutely not forget it, it was so amazing I have tried several times to re-create it at home. Its so simple you'll be shocked that you've never thought of it before, but it's fantastic. Its an appetizer, but it's really large and you could totally eat it as an entree. It was perfection! I also had a fantastic margarita, one of their special ones, but I can't remember what was in it. In fact, that crazy corn was so amazing I can't remember exactly what I had for my entree, LOL. I think it was fish, I'll have to think about that, but I remember it being delicious. We loved eating there and would have no problem recommending it to anyone, especially at sunset.
 
We had an excellent experience here in 2010. Food was yummy, drinks were yummy. Service was a bit lacking but it was crowded and we didn't have to wait to be seated so that was good. We tried it on a whim and really enjoyed it.

I agree with the PP-the crazy corn is the best thing ever.

In my May TR there is a review.
 
Small portions, limited menu (at least from what it was when it opened), very cold beer.
Do lunch but not dinner.
