    Pizza was the driest ever worse than $6 frozen pizza . Pasta spinach is bitter and tasteless except for the sausage . The owner asked if we like bruschetta and said we’d have one. He ended up serving us a $37.95 appetizer platter for just my son and me. When I said it’s way too big and he said I can take it home for next day lunch! How ridiculous! Don’t go it’s a scam

    Our overall experience was okay. Service was excellent and it was quiet in spite of the restaurant being full when we arrived. Appetizers: The ceasar and bruschetta were both good, we weren't fans of the calamari. Mains: The fish special was excellent but for $50, I would have expected a larger piece. The veal scallopini was not tasty at all, in fact my mom left the whole dish. The pizza was average and the pasta Bolognese was fine. Overall, I found the pricing reasonable (which is rare these days) and the service EXCELLENT, but if we go back, we would probably just go for a pasta dish.

    This is an amazing neighborhood gem. Excellent menu and good wine selection. We ordered the veal chop special and the Branzino special, both beautifully cooked and served. Desserts are to die for. Exceptional service and warm vibe.

    We had a lovely experience at Parola last night. We were a family group of 6 and made prior reservations. I’m having a hard time deciding whether te service was better than the food and vice versa because they were both stellar. We ordered a variety of pastas, a salad, a pizza, and some bruschetta and everyone was very happy with their choice, some of us couldn’t finish our plates because the portions were big. We also had a lovely bottle of red wine (Roberto Solo). Our host made us feel like we were at a good friend’s house, and he made sure we were laughing and enjoying our time there. I didn’t catch his name but if you read this, thank you very much for our lovely evening there. The place is small-medium size and looks nicely decorated, which I loved and it wasn’t too busy when we were there. Highly recommended.
