"Altro Paradiso is from the same people behind Estela, although this place is much bigger, and it’s open for both lunch and dinner. The food is Italian, but it’s not the red-sauce kind—they serve a lot of small plates and lighter pastas, as well as larger things like steak and roasted chicken. During the day, Altro Paradiso is perfect for a lunch meeting, with lots of white marble, blonde wood, and big mirrors. At night, it’s good for dates or dinner with the parents. You could also just stop by for a negroni and a bowl of pasta at the bar on your way home from work." - team infatuation
"Chosen as the setting for the couple's first meal because it's seen as ideal for a date and for conversation — Song calls it "an amazing restaurant that’s a great place to go on a date." She emphasizes that "The vibe is important, but the more important thing is how good the food tastes. I don’t care about restaurants where the food isn’t good," and adds that on a first date, "you might even want to sacrifice a little bit of the food for a quieter room." The location exemplifies a balance of excellent food and an atmosphere conducive to connection." - Nadia Chaudhury
"This Italian corner spot in Soho has big windows and an atmosphere that could convince you to order a spritz even if you have to go back to work afterwards. If you’re here solo, snag a seat at the bar, where they do half-sizes of the finocchio salad (fennel, castelvetrano olives, and provolone) and the pastas.

"Cafe Altro Paradiso is an Italian restaurant between Soho and the West Village, and it’s from the same people behind Estela. We don’t like it quite as much as that place, but it’s a lot larger, and it’s good to know about if you work in the area. The menu typically has some lighter pastas, and some large things like chicken Milanese, and they also do a burger at lunch. If you come with a few people, there are also a few big tables and booths.

"Between the spacious sidewalk setup, fresh pasta, and great wine, going to this west Soho restaurant will probably make your week. But going to Cafe Altro Paradiso when they have live jazz on Sunday night may make you weep. You can make a reservation for either their indoor or outdoor dining area here.
