One of the best longtime local delis in the city. They have a unique touch to their menu items like the sandwiches come with sprouts and shredded carrots. The curry Walnut chicken salad is my favorite but they have many great options. The potato salad is another top pick. I wish they also had the original version with chives (just in case the owner is reading) but the coarse grain mustard and bacon version is great too. Their strawberry soft serve is a crowd favorite. A small cup is like a light palate cleanser at the end of lunch. They also use it in shakes and smoothies. There are usually two soup options every day. I love to stop for lunch when the weather is good and soak it up on their patio.

I absolutely loved the atmosphere of this place! I felt as if I walked right into a cafe you would read about in a book. Also, the food was absolutely delicious. I think I found my new favorite lunch go-to!

A family-owned lunch place in the East Memphis area is a rare find, and this is a very nice and efficiently run one at that. I opted for the pimento cheese sandwich on marbled rye bread, with all of the default toppings. These included lettuce, tomato, cucumber, shredded carrots and alfalfa sprouts - which all tasted fresh and paired well with the rye and pimento. My only criticism? The layer of pimento cheese was skimpy - especially compared to the heaping of other toppings layered into the 'wich. Had there been double the cheese it would've been perfectly balanced. Next time I'll request extra. Also of note, a bag of chips is included for the price of the sandwich - which was a modest $7.29. Beverages are extra. A great value for the area - and will definitely be returning.

This hidden cafe tucked into the strip mall is well worth finding. A local favorite, Paradise Cafe has withstood the test of time. Frequented by businessmen and ladies who lunch, try their chicken salad and soups. Pro tip: try their house smoothie!

The chef was vegan and made me a black bean burrito that was fresh and delicious. The old lady at the cashier was a little rude though. Omg their brownie is smth else, so creamy inside and crunchy on the outside: perfect combination Also a nice place to sit outside and enjoy the sun

Love this place. The chicken salad sandwich is the best in town. Also they use to have this fruit dip that you could get when you ordered fruit as a side...omg it is just the best I have ever tasted. I could just make a meal out of it. Please bring that back full time. Highly recommend paradise cafe for lunch. Everyone in there is just really nice. Just ate here again today, tried the butternut squash soup and it was the most incredible soup I have ever tasted. Wish they were open for dinner.
