    Shout out to Chef Kanada ! We enjoyed the food, service. We had some delicious starters, octopus was perfect, calamari was crunchy, mussels was the best, I could hv this as a main, loved the burrata too. The mains was very good with the branzino grilled to perfection, veal chop delicious with the sauce, love the risotto and vodka pasta. We all enjoyed the coconut ice cream very much as well as the grandmothers cake. Planning to go back for the pizzas, they looked good, on the other table

    I was looking for a reservation for friends last Friday night and stumbled upon Parola Restaurant. We had never been there before. And I am so glad we did. The service, and food was excellent. We will definitely be going back. Everything our party selected for dinner was delicious. And at the end they were so kind to give us all Lemoncello shots on the house. If you would like a great place to go to. I would highly recommend.

    Food was amazing and deserts. Place was empty all night - only 2 tables in restaurant. You can easily hear conversation from the other table. They should change their blinds/shutters as the restaurant appear from the outside as if it is closed and dark. Menu prices looks in a good level. The server come to the table and tell you about their specials without saying prices. Then you see the bill with those specials are double the menu prices for similar plates. My wife and me we received the same steak plate ( one of them called special) and her plate was $28 and mine was $50 Same for appetizers $35 hidden price while all other appetizers on the menu are in the range of $15 It is very tricky way of selling expensive plates.

    Nice and cozy restaurant. Food rating is 4/5. The grill squid is tasty. The pasta with rose sauce (special of the day) is beyond good. The steak, however, minimal flavour, and has lots of tendon. The cappuccino gelato is 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. I would not order the pistachio cheesecake again, it tastes like it was made with pistachio powder with green food colouring. The service is 5/5. The server ( father of the owner?) is very nice and attentive. He served us a round of lemoncello as he knew it was a birthday celebration. Overall, it was a good dining experience.
