I ordered the classic D'Parma salad to go and it was delicious! Whenever i'm in the Winthrop area I have to stop and get this salad. They're always super quick and the takeout process is easy. It's very reasonable as well. I definitely recommend this spot! read more

Another regular place I visit whenever I am home. I bring everyone here, and I am here multiple times a week honestly. Everything here is good from the bread, the appetizers, the drinks, to the main course. I even just love a basic Caesar salad with chicken cutlets from here. Some of my go tos are the 3 cheese pasta, and the chicken salt and boca. I prefer to eat in here, the 4/5 comes from the fact that take out often lacks, but thats not totally unexpected, and sometimes service can be slow, but its usually a perfect experience, and I go there often. The vibes here are also nice, its a smaller place, but pretty. In the summer they also have an outdoor patio. read more

Oh my! How do I begin to explain the Janus of Winthrop. I have gotten takeout from this place for years -- subs are decent -- this is your place to find a good eggplant parm or meatball sandwich. I can't really explain why I like their chicken and broccoli pasta. Normally I don't care for a heavy sauce but the generous chunks of chicken and broccoli mixed with ziti in a creamy sauce leave me looking for bread to sop up the extra. What's the other face here? Well -- the restaurant is a bit dark and kitschy and, on my last trip, smelled of cleaning products. I guess cleanliness is good but, on this day, godliness was not nearby. I would stick with the takeout. read more

I'd say the menu is somewhat limited for an Italian restaurant. I had the ziti and broccoli with chicken in a creamy alfredo sauce. The dish was good, but I wish there was more chicken as it seemed like a thin chicken cutlet. Our server was very friendly and pretty attentive. The place could use some sprucing up as I feel like the Christmas lights hanging from the ceiling was a little odd. read more

Went in for dinner on a Saturday night. We were able to get seated immediately, water and bread was on the table in minutes and they grabbed our drink order super fast. The cocktail menu looks amazing, I wish we could have tried them but that'll be for our next visit. The bread was delicious! The salads that came as part of the meal were great! Fresh crisp lettuce, onion, pepper and great dressing. Dinner was linguini and clams in red sauce and linguini carbonara. We were both thrilled with the quality of dinner. Lots of proteins, generous portion of pasta and the sauces were delicious. I would 100% order both again but there's more I want to try when we go back. Highest marks for service and food quality. read more

This place is awesome! The staff gave great recommendations for the menu. They had an amazing drink and food selection. The best part about it all, the food was delicious! Like sooooo good! 10/10 recommend! read more

Paper thin "pieces" of overcooked veal in my Saltimbocca - same situation with my son's veal dish. The large concrete blocks under the outside tables make seating a nightmare and that is ridiculous. My wife did enjoy here chicken dish and the eggplant app. Was good but not nearly good enough to make the meal and venue acceptable. Message to mgt. "If you can't do it right, don't bother having it on the menu!" Will not be going back, as there are far many more fine Italian restaurants nearby! read more

D'Parma Restaurant - Underwhelming Saltimbocca - Italian Near Me - Winthrop, Massachusetts

Love the food and the wide variety of choose and I think it's very authentic and the food is fresh. The service is very good.

Definitely could use an update on the interior but the food was good and the service great. I ordered arrabbiata pasta which was supposed to be spicy. It was not - the jalapeño added a nice crunch like a bell pepper but did not add flavor. Of course if it's not making my nose hair curl back in terror it's not spicy enough for me read more

Moderately priced restaurant with excellent cuisine. My partner and I had the Veal Pizzaiola and Eggplant Rolls. The sauce on the pizzaiola was a little garlicky, but the veal was incredibly tender. The bread for the table was also excellent (though we weren't the chili oil to come with it), but the absolute winner of the bunch was the Eggplant rolls. Perfect balance of cheese, sauce, and eggplant and the fresh basil on top was the piece de resistance. 4 stars because, while still attentive and patient, the servers were a bit loud while chatting on break at one of the empty tables. Still deserve 20% tho - thank you for the delicious dinner! read more

Once again , an excellent meal this past Sunday. The young lady we had for a waitress ( sorry , bad with names ) was very patient and helpful with a great menu. Had the Chicken Marsala which was fantastic. The Mrs had the Risotto which she loved. We always know we will have a great meal when we come here. read more

This is a great neighborhood go to place. Our favorite are the tortellini and the raviolis. We've also regularly order the chicken Caesar salad. the subs are also delicious. Can't beat the prices here. read more

First time ordering from here. My son and I were plane spotting at Coughlin Park and he wanted a meatball sub for lunch. Saw the great reviews online and asked a resident who confirmed that they were good. Ordered two subs (meatball and D'Parma #1) and an order of Linguini Pomodoro. The subs did not disappoint!! My son said it was one of the best meatball subs he's ever had. I didn't get a chance to try it because he ate it so fast but I believe him because my D'Parma was delish! You can tell the prosciutto and the sopressata that I had them add were fresh, as were the tomatoes and mozzarella. The bread was nice and fresh too, although I personally like a crunchier type bread. The linguini on the other hand was inedible. It was extremely overcooked. Just mushy and gross. It's a shame though because you could tell the sauce was good (and being a native Sicilian, it's hard to find a restaurant that serves sauce that you like). The establishment was adorable. The staff was really nice. The prices were fair. I'm not from the area so I'd have to make a special trip to come back here but when I am in the area again, I would definitely try it again. read more

So we've been D'Parma fans for a while. We get lunch from them every two weeks- Chicken Parm sub for him and minestrone or Italian wedding soup for me. Tonight we ordered from there for our 19 year old's birthday. She loved her chicken parm, but the real star was the spinach ravioli that our 7 1/2 month old HOUSED!!! Ate half the portion. And who can blame her!?!? Mama tried a piece and I assure you, it's delicious! I mean... if they can make both of our children happy, there's little they can't do. Go here! Eat everything. You'll never have a bad meal. read more

Good food, but service can be excruciatingly slow - especially when you're just trying to pay and go home.

I ordered 5 subs and 4 of them were absolutely terrible, basically inedible. Two turkey subs had rubbery ends of the turkey loaf. The chicken in the chicken parm sub was so thin that the breading was thicker than the chicken. The Italian sub has so many hots that all that could be tasted was the hots and burned your mouth. The eggplant in the eggplant parm sub was good and a great size portion, however the tomato sauce had no flavor. On top of this, the bread used for each sub was stale. I returned the subs to show the restaurant what they gave me and they did refund me and said this would not happen again. I have eaten at De Parma's several times in the past and it's been fine. Not sure what is going on there now but I will never go back. read more

D'Parma Restaurant - Chicken Marsala - Italian Near Me - Winthrop, Massachusetts

In town for only a couple days from Fort Worth Texas and really craving some great Italian food. Now we could have gone to Little Italy in Boston. However it was a cold and slightly damp night so decided to try something closer to our hotel. This was recommended by the hotel staff. When we walked in it gave us the neighborhood mom and pop feel. Very friendly waitress met us at the door and took us to our table. It wasn't very crowded for a Thursday night but it was also after 8:30. She brought us out a loaf of great bread and waters. I ordered the linguine with clam sauce and my son had the grilled chicken Caesar salad. While waiting for our food I sat back and watched the staff working and interacting with the other tables. They came across as really caring about everyone's experience. The ambience is a little romantic too. I saw families eating next to couples that were on dates. Our food came out fairly quickly and delivered by our smiling waitress. My linguine with clam sauce was extraordinary! Just enough to satisfy my hunger and tastes great! My son loved his salad. We finished it off with a slice of tiramisu. It was my sons first time to try it and he really liked it. Some of the best I've had. I wish we had an authentic Italian restaurant like this back home. read more

It was a wonderful restaurant. I could feel the culture and authenticity the entire time. It was closer to their closing hour so not a lot of people, but I could tell the ones who were there were enjoying themselves. Food was delicious! read more

4.5 stars This is a cute BYOB Italian restaurant close to Winthrop Beach. Before COVID, we would go here about once a week for a weekend late lunch. The service is great and so is the food. Their red sauce is a little watery for my liking, but it still holds up. During COVID, we would come here almost every weekend and get takeout subs. THEY ARE BOMB. Get the D'Parma special and the meatball. The bread is perfectly crispy and they have the best meatballs I've ever tasted. The flavors in the D'Parma special are so perfectly balanced - I never thought a sandwich could be so outstanding. read more

the food was cold, the waitress was poorly trained. I was very disappointed, the place looked very appealing.

Whatever you get, it has to include their tomato sauce, it's life changing. From the eggplant roll up appetizer topped with the sauce to the gnocchi and other pastas, it doesn't get any better for an adorable local spot. The first time we came here, they had a mind-blowing crab cake special which you could have argued came straight from the Chesapeake Bay. They also serve fresh bread (you often see all this fresh french bread delivered and can smell it wafting through) with their signature infused evoo which I top with parm and red pepper flakes for optimal spice. Their creamy pesto sauce and any pasta, grilled swordfish with veggies and side of pasta, along with espresso and desserts are pure comfort food and prices are on point. It's also BYOB with a liquor store across the street with an owner that will order you whatever you fancy if he doesn't carry it. read more

Very Good Italian food. We had the Frutti di Mare risotto and Lobster Ravioli. Food came out nice and hot and reasonably fast. Waiter was pleasant and attentive. Recommended. Make reservations especially on weekends. read more

My husband and I brought a friend up D'Parma on Friday night for dinner, as she was staying with us for the weekend. Our experience....just fantastic! We walked down from our house in Point Shirley. A great way to start off the evening before dinner. I had the Swordfish Puttanesca, which is always one of my favorites...the flavors (Anchovies, capers, basil, olives and tomato sauce) is so good! Truly one of my very favorites. D'Parma knocked it out of the park AGAIN!! We will be back soon read more

Finally a resteraunt that does not break the bank. After living in the North End for 5 years and now being in the Winthrop Revere area I have come to appreciate D'Parmas. The inside is very reminscent of that Italian resteraunt every town has. The service is good and the setting is very informal--very European with BYO alcohol (huge plus). I have had better food here than I have at many places in the North End and yeah even Italy. It has a huge menu but does not miss on the flavor. The bread at table free is a nice welcome and the bill at the end makes it all worth the visit. Call me a regular now. Good staff, great food easy going environment. read more

First off, walked in and it was so homey and welcoming! It gave such a cute little Italian family restaurant vibe. I went to this restaurant for my friends post graduation dinner, she had made a reservation prior to attending. The table was set by the time we got there and was greeted promptly. I ordered the linguine cabanara and it was amazing! The creamy sauce in combination with the salty bacon gives flavor to the pasta. NOTE: BYOB, which is awesome, because how many restaurants let you BYOB? Enjoy dinner while enjoying your own booze! read more

I was excited to eat here. My wife and I enjoyed eating here when we first started dating, and it had been years since we had been here. We came on a Saturday night, it was quite busy and it was a half hour wait. But this tiny place was packed. What I enjoy about this place is the corking fee, BYOB baby! Picked up a bottle of 19 crimes - the banished dark red wine from across the street at Thompson's. She got her usual (chicken parm with alfredo) and I wanted to get the Swordfish Puttanesca. But noooooo, that has anchovies and would make someone else not enjoy their meal because they think it would smell bad. So it was settled on Swordfish Pizzaiola (by the way it was pretty good). First course, bread basket! Toasted Italian bread to satiate the appetite. Second course! Salad (garden with Italian) that comes with each meal. Nice and simple. Main course! Swordfish Pizzaiola was very good, I enjoyed it. Nice small serving of pasta, was a nice size swordfish and very filling. Not a dessert guy, and we were tired from the comic con and just wanted to get home to sleep. Besides, we were quite satiated. Their coffee, espresso, and desserts were good in the past and I'm assuming they still are. read more

This place used to be my go to. Loved their D'Parma special de la casa. The place has gone way down hill though. Food now subpar, don't put much into it, and even forget a lot of the ingredients. read more

I will never be going back! This place made my friend cry and made her have breakdown while in the restaurant, the employees yelled at her for it! Our sever was nice but the rest of the people were horrible. When we left the place my friend forgot something so we went back in to get it, they refused to give it back and when my friend needed to get something from it to resolve a issue they went through it and got it for her! THEY WENT THROUGH IT! My family and her family will never go back here! Horrible experience and it's a shame because the food was decent read more

A group of us made the decision to troop all the way back down here after a NH trip for a late lunch. Although we have not dined here in quite a while, we all had wonderful recollection of previous experiences. Now all I can ask is what happened D'Parma's??? We came in with high expectations with each of us opting for a pasta dish. Unfortunately, they did not deliver. I'm not certain if they hired a new chef, but each of our meals were beyond bland. No amount of pepper, salt, nor cheese could give these dishes any flavor. The portions themselves also are rather small. We recalled in the past being able to take a large portion of it home, but not this visit. Overall, aside from the bread, the quality just didn't cut for us. We were very much disappointed. We all mentioned how the Olive Garden might've been a better option...... read more

I had lunch at D'Parma in Winthrop. The eggplant Parmesan was great. I liked D'Parma but prefer Polcari's in Saugus.

Mediocre food that lacked flavor. The trout was over cooked. I asked for no olives - my dish was loaded with olives. More importantly, the service was TERRIBLE. We sat outside and had to go inside to get the servers. When another server eventually came outside we would ask her to please go get our server. There was little activity outside ... there was no reason our server was too busy for us, plus when I went inside the servers were all sitting around chatting doing nothing. Beyond disappointing ~ awful experience read more
