Paradise Soho

Paradise was founded by Charith Priyadarshana and Sam Jones, who wanted to set up a restaurant inspired by the bistros of Colombo and Galle in Sri Lanka. The wine list is curated by blogger and wine expert Zeren Wilson, better known online as Bitten & Written.

Sleek slate interiors, high tables, snug booths and bar counter seating frame a dining room that seems effortlessly cool, with pumping music and chatter making sure the atmosphere is always down-to-earth and buzzing.

Paradise’s food menu puts curries, breads and the Sri Lankan classic hoppers at the forefront, with vibrant flavours inspired by the island’s Portuguese, Malay, South Indian and Dutch influences and built around beautifully sourced British ingredients.
