Parola Ristorante

Almost 5 stars for me. The calamari and grill octopus are must order. The veal and seafood pasta were just ok. I didn't try but the grill branzino looks amazing and my father in law finish the whole thing. Super friendly staffs and willing to adjust for vegetarians.

Tonight I went to Parola fora Holiday Party with a group of friends. We had a beautiful private room for all fourteen of us. Our waiter Ara was attentive, funny and helpful. The food was amazing and the portions were very large. It was fabulous! We will definitely go back again and highly recommend it. We all ate different meals and we were all pleased. I had steak that was delicious and the veal piccata and Caesar salad were also delicious.

I reserved this place to treat my best friend for her birthday. The night started off amazing and the food was also amazing along with generous portion sizes. I asked a waitress to bring out a dessert and sparkler then she said they have a candle only to bring out. & they will bring it out. After we had our meal I was waiting for the staff to bring out the dessert to sing Happy Birthday to my best friend. To a point i was awkwardly waiting. I also told one waiter that I am waiting for the dessert However, the owner kinda yelled at the waiters saying “I am not giving them free dessert.” What i would suggest is to notify the staff to let customers know that birthday desserts are not free. I don’t have a problem paying for dessert. Even if they gave out the dessert and billed us I wouldn’t have had a problem. I had to ruin the surprise and tell the owner to give out a tiramisu. , it definitely was a buzzkill to the night as this can be solved with training their staff on how to handle situations like this. Although they gave us 2 limoncello shots after. I definitely did not appreciate the Owners(head chef?) that we are trying to freeload in the restaurant when we ordered drinks apps and mains. The energy was ruined. This review is something people should be aware of before dining here on a milestone to celebrate with dessert. I have also added a pic of the rude waiter/Owner? His face appeared in the video when i was singing Happy Birthday to my best friend. Again he didn’t care to sing for her and purposely entered the video when i was recording with flash on. On a positive note the food was amazing.

Small cozy restaurant . Probably 50 seats in total . We were the second table in the restaurant. Food was authentic and tasted really good , price point is not that much either . Try their margarita pizza , it was thin and fresh . Seafood portion seems small but it was enough for two of us to share after our calamari and margarita pizza appetizers. Overall good food , will be back .

Came here for a Family outing to host family from out of town. I am not going to give 1 star 1 person at the establishment should not be the reason why the entire restaurant should be punished however I also cannot give a 5 Star! We were served by Frank in the beginning who was clearly a seasoned Server. I believe he had someone either helping him as a Food Runner, or as a training Server who made our evening quiet uncomfortable. He was very rude and not hospitable. He would place the plates down very hard and make our entire family jump. He also handed myself my plate into my hands and said here, the bottom of the plate was hot but I did not say anything as I was afraid he would get aggressive! He several times interrupted us having nice conversations to Auction off the food, should there not be seat numbers associated with the food? Why are we being screamed at to what our meal is & who ordered it. The dessert came and he was delivering it and he put it on the table and slid it to some of us as it was hard for him to reach! During the end my father in law took the bill and was looking at it at which point he grabbed it out of his hand like; "times up gotta pay" and put the total in the handheld and gave the machine to him. All in all, we were so uncomfortable with this man that we just got up and left. Could not even remember the taste of the food. We will 100% will not be back since these are the types of people you are hiring. This was not fine dining at all. Thanks to Frank though for being a superb server we only hoped he was with us the entire time and not just the beginning!

1st time coming to Parola. The food was tasty and fresh, but tbh the atmosphere felt a bit cold and I don't mean temperature. I was disappointed there was no mocktails on the menu as a non drinker. The service was good for the most part and food came out on time; however, the dining experience was a bit cold.
