After the sand got a little cold as we laid on beautiful Capitola Beach, we wandered down the street looking for a nice little place to grab an appetizer. We passed by the seafood, the Thai place, the sports bar and happened upon the Paradise Beach Grille. The menu looked appetizing and they had a patio where we could enjoy the beautiful day so we decided to give it a try.
The ambiance was simple and elegant without being pretentious. There were fresh flowers on every table, a full bar, and tables for two or eight to accommodate any party size.
We ordered a lovely dish of Bree baked in a puffed pastry over bruchetta served with a head of roasted garlic and a jalapeno jelly sauce. It was amazing. Every bite was a week bit of heaven. I also ordered a pina colada with no fresh coconut and it was perfectly balanced and a tasty addition to our afternoon snack. The wait staff was also very pleasant and timely. Overall, I recommend the place to anyone who wants a delicious meal. I also think the indoor seating would make a lovely setting for a romantic occasion though I fear that the day time and patio areas are likely to be frequented by families and beach go-ers that might lessen a romantic mood.
The pricing is the mid-range. Cocktails were $6-8 per glass. Our baked Bree heaven was $14. Lunch entrees where in the $10-18 range and dinner entrees were $22-$34.
