About Paradise

Perched on the corner of Roslyn and Ward, this Potts Point enoteca delivers Mediterranean small plates and serious pours without the booking fuss. Put your name down at the door, grab a pint around the corner, and wait for the callback. Inside, soaring ceilings frame an energetic dining room, while sloped outdoor tables buzz with foot traffic. The chalkboard menu moves fast. Regulars order seeded focaccia with lentil hummus, cheesy puff pastries, and slow-braised lamb with chickpeas alongside dry martinis and natural Italian reds.

  • Walk-In Only: No advance bookings; leave your number on the door waitlist for a callback when a table clears.
  • Rotating Menu: A compact, frequently shifting board of Mediterranean dishes, braised lamb, and house-baked focaccia.
  • Potts Point Energy: A lively corner room with soaring ceilings complemented by bustling street-side seating.
  • Curated Wine & Martinis: Tight focus on expressive bottles and classic house martinis.
