Paradise Indian and American Cuisine coming to Middletown

Middletown will be getting another Indian restaurant, in addition to Clay Oven and Hyderabad House. Paradise Fine Indian and American Cuisine is taking over the former Millions Crab space at 12951 Shelbyville Road. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of a combined Indian/American restaurant; I’m curious to see what the menu is like.

A Google search for “Paradise Indian Cuisine” turns up several restaurants across the country that are part of a chain called Paradise Biryani Pointe, but I don’t know if it’s connected to the Middletown restaurant.

I guess we'll find out, Rich, and thanks for the report. I hope it doesn't mean "Indian made easy for Americans without weird flavors or too much heat"!

Paradise American-Indian Cuisine opened recently, and it does have a dual menu. It’s mostly typical Indian food, from chicken tikka masala to dal makhani; the “American Menu” offers a limited number of sandwiches, soups, pasta, seafood, etc. I wonder if the American options are aimed more at people having lunch, who may not want a full order of Indian food. Anyway, if you’re interested in having mozzarella sticks with your goat biryani, this is the place to go.

I can’t find a website, but there are photos of the menu online:

Makes you wonder about their business model all right, but heck, I like Indian food enough to check it out.

I found a menu online...very odd to see beef hamburgers on an Indian restaurant menu. The inclusion of beef in the kitchen is going to keep some Indians out of this restaurant.

I just found this website online that has their menu:

It's a strange combination of menu items to say the least.
