I stopped by Parla for pizza and honestly--what an experience. From the moment I walked in, the service stood out. While I was waiting for a table, multiple staff members checked in on me and even offered a drink, which made me feel genuinely taken care of before I even sat down. Once seated, that level of attentiveness didn't miss a beat. The team was warm, welcoming, and consistently made sure everything was just right without being overbearing. We ordered the Hot Hunny pizza and the Burrizza--both completely different but equally incredible. The flavors were unique, well-balanced, and honestly just exquisite. The ambiance tied everything together perfectly--super cozy, inviting, and with a cute, stylish vibe that makes you want to stay a while. Safe to say, I've found a new go-to spot in the city. Next time though, I'm definitely making a reservation! read more

Yum!!! Only been here once but of my fav pizzas in NY. We had a hot hunny pizza and kale salad. Hot hunny was clearly a specialty. No notes. We took it to go and it re heated great too. They had a lot of fun and different flavors on the menu. Kale salad had some unique flavors but was tasty. They had some pastas and other dishes on the menu as well It's hard to get in here, we made a resv a few days before at 2pm on a Sat for the counter. There was some open seats around but still pretty busy. For a prime time resv probably need to book it in advance. The restraunt inside was cute and modern, there's a section with big windows. read more

My husband and I came here early in the evening. I'm embarrassed to say, I didn't expect much from this restaurant, but I was happy to be proven wrong. We began our dinner with a plate of Caesar salad. It was wonderfully fresh, the lettuce crisp, the dressing light, with a slight nuttiness from the toasted sesame seeds and a salty funk from the anchovies. For our main course, we ordered the hot honey pizza, which we both loved. Greasy as pizza should be, the focaccia bread thick, crisp, and airy, sweet from the drizzle yet savory from the pepperoni, each bite was a mouthwatering delight. To end our time here, we ordered the chocolate sherry gelato, which was the best gelato I had ever tasted I enjoyed the lightness of the chocolate - it wasn't too dark or too rich. The gelato itself was so creamy, every scoop was heaven. I came here with low expectations and left fully satisfied. I would dine here again. read more

Love Parla !! The food is always great! We got the burrata (kinda a small serving to share and you gotta order bread on the side). The hot hunny pizza is our favorite. Service is prompt, at times hovery, but I get that they try to get people in and out since I've never been when it wasn't busy! Ambiance is cute but tiny and not very Ada accessible. read more

On entering, the mood was lively and welcoming. Started by sharing a Parla Chopped (Tuscan kale, red onion, celery, cucumbers, olives, chickpeas and delicious calamari with a tasty Italian ranch dressing). We followed it with a basic Pepe Bianco. The crust was outstanding and the mozzarella, Parmesan and black pepper added the perfect flavors. We were unable to finish the pie and the leftovers made for a very special breakfast!. Need to return to try other appetizers and their pastas read more

Visited here for lunch with some friends on a Sunday afternoon - we had a 2:30 reservation but weren't seated til 3 pm - the restaurant is tiny but the staff is so kind, they were extremely apologetic about the wait time but didn't want to rush the other party out as they also had young children (so did we). We ordered an app - chicken Milanese salad, and went straight for the pizzas. We got hot honey, pie dye, the NY classic, and angry roni, SO SO good!!! We thought the 3 pies would have been too much, but we actually ended up having leftovers! The food was absolutely fantastic - I was a huge fan of the deep dish style pizza, so buttery, crispy, and soft all at the same time! Huge bonus points for 2 massive and clean bathrooms with a very chic baby changing table! Will def be back! read more

5/5 stars. SO good. All the flavors, the ambiance, the friendly service. Everything was amazing. We got the ricotta starter. Delicious. It's ricotta with fried rosemary and aged balsamic. Truly the perfect bite. Tip: be sure to ask for bread because otherwise it will literally just come as the serving of ricotta. I got the Lumache Pomodoro which is tomato, melted garlic, stracciatella, and basil pesto. I ordered as is, minus the pesto. This pasta dish was SO good. Everything tasted so fresh and the sauce was divine. I'm sure it would've been amazing with the pesto but I personally don't love pesto so I did without. My friend got the Hot Hunny pizza - which is clearly the hot item here - and she absolutely loved it. We were headed to a show so we didn't box it up for takeout. Beware it's huge! You could easily split it. Not pictured: the chocolate x pistachio gelato. The perfect dessert to top it all off. The perfect portion size for the two of us to share...even after being so full from the amazing dinner! I could not recommend this place more. read more

A phenomenal experience! Service was great from start to finish. Shoutout to the manager at the front. We had a short a wait even though we had a reservation, but they brought us water and quickly took us to our seats once a table opened up. Waiter was awesome, telling us all his favorites which led to us buying the barriza. The pizza was super crispy, flavorful and I'll be back for another. Ambiance is nice inside. It can get packed, but enjoyed the lighting and decor. Highly recommend this place to anyone near. read more

Really wanted to love Parla as it seems like reservations here are hard to secure and it's the newest Italian spot in the city however the experience and food fell pretty flat. We've attempted a walk in on the most popular days and times aka dinner time, yet have always come to a "It'll be a 40-60 min wait" which is crazy given that there's a chance the long wait will not lead to a positive outcome. We eventually had reservations and it's safe to say that Parla is good for what it is if you're in the UWS and craving a pasta pizza combo and are either riding solo or stumble upon an off time to dine. We ordered- Lumache Pomodoro NY Classic The setting is very intimate and can get quite loud however it truly felt like we were at the hottest spot in the neighborhood, so no surprise there. The pizza was quite dry and we essentially had to dip each of our slices in the pasta just so it could taste a bit less...dry. I thought you'd get more bang out of your buck by ordering a round pizza, however maybe flavor wise the square pizzas could be better. Maybe would stop by again for pasta, but begrudgingly. read more

So tasty! We were nearby and looking for dinner. The photos and reviews on Yelp looked so good we knew we had to head over. Their site said walk-ins were welcome and it was a Monday night so off we went. They were packed, but we were able to grab a seat at the bar. Started with the Parla chopped which we delicious. The pasta was amazing, you can tell they make it fresh in house, and the pizza did not disappoint. Save room for a little soft serve for dessert. A lovely spot to grab dinner! read more

The place was buzzing on a Friday! Definitely not a place you can walk in expecting to get seats, I highly recommend making reservations. It is a vibey pizza parlor. The environment was filled with birthday celebrations, date nights, etc. Definitely a spot if you want an elevated dining experience but don't want to be overly pretentious. I ordered to go because it was too crowded. The pizza was just fine, I felt like it lacked cheese and probably didn't travel too well. However the Chicken Milanese was a rockstar! It was beautifully battered and the salad was refreshing, highly suggest. During the wait for pickup we ordered drinks. I am obsessed with the cocktail menu and want to try more when I go. Worth having a couple. read more

A lovely Italian eatery with a diverse medley of pizzas and pasta! I visited with my mom and we got the Upside Down pizza, Chicken Milanese salad, and the Mafaldine alla Vodka pasta. The Upside Down pizza has a nice tomato and basil fragrance, a pretty typical pizza but served in square slices. Prob should have ordered a more unique pizza as they have so many different flavors! The Chicken Milanese is an arugula salad with some breaded chicken (like chicken katsu), which my mom esp liked. The mafaldine was the star of the show as the texture of the pasta was SUPERB - perfectly al dente and creamy! There were a lot of people but we got seated quickly at the bar, and the service was very nice! Would love to come back and try their other pizzas as they have such an extensive menu! read more

While recently in the NYC, we were looking for a dinner spot to satisfy 3 adults and 2 teenagers. I have to say, that Parla did just that. With the attentive service, great food, and nice atmosphere, we picked the perfect spot. We ordered two pasta dishes (Mafaldine all Vodka and Lumache Pomodoro) along with two pizzas. We ordered the Round Burrizza and the Square Pie Dye. Every item hit the spot and was delicious. There was not a single complaint out of our party of 5. And with teens in tow that's not always easy. read more

After a long walk around the museum we worked up an appetite. We looked around the area for some pizza and came across this place. The reviews were promising. Upon arrival we were greeted and sat at the bar. This place is small and quaint. We noticed people leaving and we asked if we could have their table. Staff was more than happy to accommodate. When we sat down they brought us water while we looked over the menu. We needed up ordering the NY classics pizza, flat bread, and the upside down. We also ordered Birra Locale flagship Pilsner. The pizza not only looked great it tasted amazing. You can tell them put a lot of thought and effort into their food. Prices were on the higher side but you definitely get what you paid for. We were not disappointed by the signs of empty dishes. Lol Definitely a good spot to stop in and get a bite. Great service, amazing food. read more

In a place like NYC, it's hard to stand out with pizza. But after coming to Parla, I can definitely understand why they've generated buzz for a cuisine that's available on pretty much every street corner. We tried two styles of their pizza - the round (S.O.P.), and the square (Full Shroom). The round was somewhere between a New York and Neapolitan style. Thin and crispy, but also a little chewier than a corner slice. The square was thick, but also airy and fluffy, somehow filling without being too dense. Both pies had fresh ingredients and tasted great. The Full Shroom was LOADED with toppings, and the S.O.P. had a nice balance of sausage and mozzarella. The meal was super filling, well worth the premium charge for pizza. The quality here is legit, Parla is well worth a visit! read more

Very impressed. The upside down pizza with hot honey is 10/10 also the cacio balls. Yummy. We had a an hour and 15 min wait on a Saturday night. We had a great server too. Our party of 5 loved our food - so much we ordered an extra pie once we were done eating. Also the spritz with olives in it is my absolute favorite way to drink a spritz. read more

I was in New York for a short time and I wanted to make sure that I had some delicious pizza. After walking around Central Park and building up the appetite, my friends and I decided to head down to this place. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted and sat at the bar. It was nice, well lit and extremely clean. I ordered a House Spritz which was phenomenal and paired well with what we ordered. We ordered the NY Classic and the Hot Honey Square pie and they were exceptional! We also ordered a side of their Spicy Italian Ranch which elevated the pizza experience even more. When I return to NYC I will certainly be returning for more. If you're in the neighborhood, definitely stop by. Oh & the service was great! read more

Wow. That Hot Hunny pizza is next level. We ordered a second one for the table after devouring the first! Crust had a nice crunch and the toppings were fully loaded. The Catchy O's were eaten in 2 seconds they were so good. Ricotta was delicious, but a small portion. Little Gem had the perfect mix of ingredients and wasn't too heavy on the dressing so it was light and crisp. Fantastic friendly service by our waiter. We didn't have a Resy so waited about 45 minutes for a table which wasn't bad on an early Saturday evening. We sat outside, but the inside looks really nice. read more

Incredibly rude, possibly racist server. I've (FORTUNATELY) never experienced this type of thing before here in NYC, but I was with two others, and were treated unbelievably, remarkably terribly. The other two of us began filming the interaction, and then the manager shooed us away, since CLEARLY they were in the wrong. FYI. Please do NOT support this behavior, OR this management style of 'protecting' the power-hungry. Absolutely not. read more

Really liked Parla, particularly the square pizza option! The pepperoni style pizza was my favorite. Good to try the round pies too.

Stopped by for lunch with two little ones after a trip to the museum. Parla did not disappoint!! Nice and clean inside, albeit a bit tight. Lots of communal seating, but we lucked out with an end booth. The staff was so friendly and helpful - they earned an extra tip! We split the upside down pizza because my girls love a grandma version we get on LI. The dough was so light and fluffy, almost like a focaccia. Not dense like most thick square pies. Flavors were on point. Got the swirl gelato, flavors were a little too intense for the kids but I enjoyed it. Would def recommend this for a lunch or dinner if you're in the neighborhood! read more

Such a good spot! Loved their hot honey pizza, such a thick, crunchy crust, and their delicious cherry-chocolate-pistachio swirl homemade gelato. The broccolini was pretty good, as was the shroom pie, but the hot honey and gelato are really the stars of the show. Coming back for their cacio e pepe arancini and either upside down or burrata pie. Grab the circular, windowed booth in the back and happily people-watch Columbus Ave. 5 stars!!!! read more

heard sooo many great things about Parla and had to come see for myself if it lived up to the hype. As a vegetarian, i feel like there's plenty of options to choose from and it was easy to reserve a table for a Monday but it did get packed as the night went on. Definitely reserve because it does get busy! We ordered the Sonny boy pizza and it was absolutely perfect. I can't stand when pizzas are too oily and this pizza was just right and the crispy sesame crust was so crunchy and delicious. Drinks also look great and i can't wait to come back to try more. read more

Not a huge fan of Italian food but gotta give it to Parla, their food is good! You can tell by the presentation that whatever you order is going to be divine. Bread & Things : Olives (Taste like pepperoni! P.s not a fan of olives but these were good !) Parmesan (drizzled with honey) Started: Chopped Salad (so good) Sandwich: Crispy Chicken ( So freaking good, get a side of pesto to add on it .. chefs kiss) Dessert: Pistachio Gelato ( tastes like chocolate) Now the people sitting next to me ordered a pizza and the chicken Milanese salad, let me say that salad looked delicious, definitely gonna try the next time. Their pizzas look pretty good as well. The atmosphere is real nice, cute for a date, solo date, or 2/3 friends. The servers were so nice and friendly. read more
