Owners Dennis and Malena Hernandez invite you to experience the warmth, service and outstanding Italian food that have consistently made Cucina Paradiso one of the top rated restaurants in Sonoma County and the San Francisco North Bay.
Trained in the tradition of the prestigious Istituto Alberghiero Di Stato in Cefalú, Italy, Chef Dennis takes great pride in using only the finest ingredients and preparing everything – from the foccacia to the pasta to the tempting desserts – from scratch. An extensive list of Italian and Sonoma County wines are available to complement your meal with many available by the glass. Cucina Paradiso’s knowledgeable wait staff will be delighted to recommend the ideal pairing of wine and food.
Once you’ve tasted Dennis’s authentic Italian cuisine served in the gracious atmosphere of Cucina Paradiso, you’ll know why it’s a kitchen in paradise!
