Cafe Paradiso

Right across the street from the metro and near the zoo, Cafe Paradiso knows it's in a good location for tourists making their way around D.C. They also realize that there are many dining options on this stretch of Connecticut Ave so we think that’s why the staff is extra friendly. If still unsure, the food will convince you that you've made the right choice. The house specials such as, the veal scaloppini, shrimp parmigiana, chicken parmesan and pollo in funghi are known throughout the area and even draw in the locals.
