Cafe Paradice

I would consider this bar food. A family member loved this place so much and suggested everyone to eat here. Of course, we had to try then.
Definitely be prepared to travel into the sketchy part of town. Hopefully this place gets better once the arena opens. There was security at the parking lot so your car should be safe.
Food was okay. I ordered a turkey BLT with soup. The vegetable beef soup was on the saltier side. The sandwich was as expected. I do not recommend the soda as it was flat with absolutely no carbonation left.
Pricing was average. Service was acceptable. Server stopped by and checked up on us once.

The menu has completely changed since last I visited, and is now mostly westernized Chinese food at prices that are not remarkable. I know that the staff and customers here are mostly Asian, but when you’re located a stone’s throw away from some of the best Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese restaurants in the city, perhaps something different is called for.
Luckily, I had been craving Chinese food, so ordered one of the combos ($ 11). The lemon chicken was unremarkable — small bits of meat that was undistinguishable as to whether it was white or dark, in a light batter and lemon sauce. I have had similar or better at fast food kiosks in shopping malls. The fried rice was average, if not a bit greasy, and the vegetables were tasty but cold. I did not finish them.
I also noticed one of my co-​workers did not finish his veggies with his supper meal later on. In fact, others with whom I was working also expressed disappointment in the food. «Why change perfection?» one said about the menu. Another person remarked that the food and service has gone downhill fast.
I know that the casino is capable of better than this.
Fortunately, the green onion cake (and Vietnamese coffee) I had as a mid-​afternoon snack were wonderful. The onion cake was a generous portion (two cakes) and very crispy.
My Prime Rib dinner (it was Prime Rib Monday and the 8 ounce portion was on sale) was also quite good. I thought my slab of meat was larger than 8 ounces, and the roasted potatoes really stole the show. It was one whole potato cut in half and skinned. The outsides were crispy and the insides were fluffy.
In conclusion, I would have to say that Café Paradice has become inconsistent, if anything. I really hope the kitchen and management gets it act together, because a casino needs a good restaurant.

I decided to come here for dinner as I was craving good Chinese food and wanted to gamble as well. The menu has various Chinese dishes including noodles and rice, as well as Canadian dishes. I decided to have the bbq pork chow mein this time. There is a little too much sauce which made it a bit salty but there was lots of pork slices and vegetables with a generous amount of noodles. It was reasonably priced at less than $ 10/​person. On another visit I had the rice with sweet sour pork and vegetables. The portion was big and you leave feeling satisfied. Next time I’m craving Chinese food and in the area, I will stop by.
