"I will say the ordering system caught us off guard a bit. It's set up like 'Panera Bread' where you walk in and order at a counter. However, after placing your order, it shifts to a more traditional sit-down restaurant experience. They assign you a table, and your food is brought to you. The menu is extensive and diverse, which put a little pressure on us while we were in line, but they kindly allowed us to sit and review it before ordering.
Once we made our choices, the food arrived quickly, but it was far from fast-food quality. It was genuinely 'straight from Italy' fantastic. We had the Gnocchi Gorgonzola Noci (gnocchi with gorgonzola and walnuts) and the Calzone Americano, and both were exceptional! The freshness, flavor, and preparation were top-notch, making us feel like we were back in Italy.
The friendly Italian gentleman who served us, who might have been the manager or the owner, made our experience even better, especially since we were newcomers to Parisi. We will definitely be returning to sample more from their menu. The prices were incredibly reasonable considering the quality, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Parisi to anyone!"
