This is our third or fourth time eating here over the past 8 years. The food is phenomenal. I…read morehighly recommend the prosciutto and Parmesan reggiano appetizer plates. And the fried dough!! However, the service was significantly lacking this visit. They were rude, inattentive. We asked to sit outside and he said inside was better. So we said we'd prefer outside (as we've always done) and he rolled his eyes and walked inside. So we followed him inside and got a table. The appetizers took over an hour. The server never came back to check on us. We never even moved onto ordering entrees. And I'm annoyed because I thoroughly enjoyed the pumpkin raviolis in the past. I wanted them again. It was a great place to stop while strolling the cobblestone streets of Parma. I recommend the food but not the service or atmosphere anymore.

I had the pumpkin gnocchi with truffles - they were perfect. Also tried the pasta fagioli, which was delicious as well (reminded me of my grandmother's!) The tiramisu was light and creamy. I'd go back again and again! The wait staff were so kind as well. I do not speak Italian and was fumbling through using Google translate and they were very patient and gracious. (Note: the menu is in italian so you'll need to translate it if you don't speak the language). We were also given plenty of time to sit and chat and enjoy a leisurely meal. No rush to leave. I loved this restaurant and highly recommend it!

Parma oh Parma, is it even possible to eat badly here? I don't think so! I got this recommendation…read morefrom a friend and I am so happy I did because it was a great first taste of the city. VERy simple, and I mean 1980's restaurant style in Italy. It was all grannies and Italian families on the Saturday that we were there. The place is bigger than it looks, with an outside garden and main dining room. The kitchen is bustling with Italian ladies who look like they were born making fresh pasta, which I loved. The menu offers typical favorites like prosciutto (we are in Parma!) torta fritta which are pillows of fried dough so good you'll eat them all. We followed that with two heaping (huge portions) of pasta, I got a ravioli stuffed with herbs and cheese and covered in a parmigiana, which was very light (satire). There is a guy with a bollito cart (boiled meats) that was kind of hilarious, I mean how many times in your life are you going to see some dude carting around a selection of meats in broth from table to table, that's Italy. We ordered the house lambrusco which frankly sucked but house wine can do that, my recommendation get a bottle. Awesome experience, very old-school, I'd wager this place is a bit of a find among locals. I wouldn't recommend this for a romantic date because of the bright lighting but they are very dog-friendly, in fact I think they preferred our dog over us. Ginger wins them all..

The place is family owned and run according to the best Italian tradition for trattoria. Super friendly and smiling people all over giving you any advice about the super delicious traditional food you are going to order. Starter with prosciutto, culatello, salame and pancetta is a must. Deliciousness for your taste buds and wow, how good was that piece of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese..... wooooooo!!! My first main dish was Tortelli di Zucca (pumpkin kind of ravioli) served with a very local soffritto sauce. Woooooooooooooooo!!! The capelletti were also super good and really like my mother's.... Yesssss!!! I stopped here but the second dishes were all super ones. Ok, nothing dietary or vegetarian, but this is all about super traditional tastes and super comforting northern Italian food. Like being on a Christmas banquet :) Local Lambrusco red wine is the one to drink. Nothing else. Rustic but so fitting the taste. I could not refrain from tasting the dessert and I went for Zuppa Inglese, can.t translate, but if you never got it..... you definitely miss something delicious. Espresso of course and yes, grab the bottle of Nocino to sip this Amaro while you chit chat and end this spectacular dining experience. So, tradition with real care to great tastes enhanced from "you are guest at my home" type of welcoming atmosphere. Not expensive. Book in advance as the place is small and can get crowded. Ohh, I did not mention, all over the walls pictures and posters from the cult Italian movies I mentioned earlier. They are proud of them, and so it should be :)

This past month, we were traveling in Italy. We looked for restaurants for a meal in the evening…read morein Parma. We were lucky to get a reservation. We were greeted by friendly staff and escorted to our table. Both Italian and English menus were available. The restaurant is small and nicely decorated. Bread and breadsticks were given. We ordered a bottle of wine and checked out the menu. Our server was nice and helped us with choosing food items. The first course was Antipasto dello Zingaro. ( Cold meats ) Our second course was Tortelli di Erbette. (Ravioli stuff with spinach and Parmesan cheese) which was the best Ravioli we have ever had. Next was new meat for us to try. HORSE MEAT. Tris di Cavallo. Presented 3 ways. RAW. Roasted and Tartare. We liked the first two. But the Tartare was not for us. This dish came with roast potatoes. The restaurant got busy during our visit. I would recommend making a reservation. The decor was fresh and clean. With many Italian fixtures. The noise level was low when we visited, but sure, it could be higher on the weekends. We highly recommend a visit or two.

The prosciutto was best I've ever had. The risotto was so full of Parmesan. It was delicious. We got a bottle of the house Lambrusco, and it was amazing. It's a very cute traditional Tuscan restaurant inside. Nice clean bathroom. My only sad bit was about staff. Our server was not at all happy about us not being able to speak Italian. She was nice, but it was forced. I always feel so inadequate when I have this happen, and I felt bad for not being able to understand and was then uncomfortable the rest of the meal. I wish English wasn't so universal so I would have been required to learn other languages. I wanted to be able to understand her!

The service was excellent. Our servers could speak English so that helped us. A seating area and a bar are on the piazza. The area was heated. A large grill was also outside with a someone grilling meats. We sat inside at a long communal table. It had an old school Italian trattoria vibe. It was softly lit. We ordered the Lambrusco since it is the local Specialty. We were surprised that it came in a good sized bowl rather than a wine glass We actually thought it was soup lol The Lambrusco is much different in Italy. It has a light effervescence and is well bodied. The Tortellini in beef broth is also a local dish. The broth was Ric with a lot of beef flavor. The tortellini had a beef filling. It was delicious. We had pumpkin and a cheese ravioli. Both were delicious. For the entree I had the beef. It was excellent. It was very tender and had a rich gravy on top of potatoes. The roasted onion and tomato added a delicious flavor.

We pulled into Parma on the way to Milan to fly back to America and I paid to park in a parking garage and now 6 months later I'm getting a ticket in the mail?

We enjoyed our experience at the restaurant and would keep the 5 stars, but YOUR CITY ruined it and we will never come back or recommend to our friends to visit PARMA.
