This is a little known anime that I found while browsing manga in Rightstuf. It's definitely that requires a certain taste to enjoy, if you ask me. It's full of older men who look rather fine, and if you don't like that type of thing, I'm not sure if you would like this anime. At least, that's the reaction I got when I read reviews after marathoning the entire 11-episode anime.
Ristorante Paradiso has more than hot men, though. The storylines are calm, reserved, and definitely more mature in many aspects than other anime. Each man has his own episode (or two) devoted to his background and how it affects work in Casetta dell'Orso, a small restaurant in Rome. Worth a look if you're at all interested.
I have to watch this anime. Why? Because it's by Natsume Ono, who was responsible for Saraiya Goyou. Which, to me, pretty much assures it will be great.
