The Parlor has officially become my new go to. I've had this place three days in a row now, and somehow they keep getting better. This time I went with the Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe with mushrooms and fennel sausage, and wow... phenomenal. Creamy, peppery, rich, with the mushrooms and sausage taking it to another level. The pepperoni pizza with oyster mushrooms was just as impressive. The crust, the pepperoni, the mushrooms everything works. And I can't forget the raspberry cookies. Those were the perfect little finish and honestly way too easy to eat. At this point, The Parlor has officially raised the bar. Everything I've had has been phenomenal, and this is without question my new go to Italian spot.

Paccheri alla Norma- pasta dish with eggplant and tomatoes. Loved it!
Vanessa R.

Fantastic meal! I ordered the Paccheri alla Norma- a pasta dish with eggplant and tomatoes and it was way better than I expected. The pasta was perfectly al dente with a fresh tomato sauce and hearty chunks of egg plant. I enjoyed that it came with fresh arugula on top and delicious focaccia bread on the side. The cashier, she was very friendly and attentive, thank you! I enjoyed the huge indoor/outdoor space and I saw a few families with children utilizing the area for their kids to have fun. I look forward to coming back and bringing my family to try their pizzas and other pasta dishes. There's also a happy hour!

The short rib rigatoni bolognese was yummy! Pasta is al dente and came with generous portions of sauce. There was a decent amount of short rib buried in my pasta as well. Wasn't a huge fan of the bread that came on the side though. The sourdough was a little too tart, it was a lil mushy but wasn't toasted or warmed, and there's a hole in the middle. Surprised that they don't use the same sourdough as Rye Goods next door. Service was quick; you seat yourself at a table in the open space after ordering and they'll bring it out to you. The dining area is shared by Rye Goods patrons, but there's plenty of space to choose from

Sausage & Peppers Pizza
Margarette L.

Industrial area in Tustin... but somehow fresh, wood-fired pizza?? Already our 4th time here and the food is very consistent! Not to mention great food + tons of seating =perfect for studying or co-working. Must-gets: Green Goddess salad + Chicken Calabrese Piadina + sausage & peppers pizza

Sausage & Peppers

3/14- Take out order Came by last night since there was an Event next door at Even house . It wasn't crazy packed or super busy so when you enter there is a table with menus & a sign to stand there and wait . The Asian cashier/ customer service team member wasn't warm or inviting nor friendly .. she actually looked overwhelmed to be honest and didn't event greet me or anything so I just placed my order and grabbed a drink from their fridge and paid & still tipped even though I wasn't happy about my entire experience with coming in this establishment. I asked her kindly how long it would be she stated 15-20 mins . So, after the timeframe trashed to grab my pizza I ordered . I like the pizza is made fresh to order in their oven ..ingredients were fresh and delicious but I don't think I'd come back here to find in or order take out based on my overall experience last night .

Pasta

My friend had heard about this place. I don't know what to expect, but it had great Yelp reviews. It's a small restaurant, 2 small tables inside, but plentiful seating in the common area. There were 4 of us , we ate family style. The pizza was good but I thought the pasta was even better. The salads were very good as well. I brought the salads home, my husband said it was 10/10. We ordered the green goddess, Caesar and the parlor salads. The service was great- order at the counter and the food is brought out to you. Definitely plan to go back, I would order the salads and pasta. BTW, next to them is a great sourdough bakery. I just didn't have enough space.

This place was fantastic. You order at the counter then find a spot in their indoor or outdoor patio dining area where your food will be brought out to you. Everything was freshly made and delicious. Extra bonus: Service was great and friendly. Would definitely go again and again.

Margarita pizza
Yurie H.

Hole in a wall eatery in Tustin! The parlor is located on red hill inside the same plaza as rye goods and a golf simulator. Plenty of parking, ordering is self serve but servers were bring food out to you. We got the margarita pizza, Cacio e Pepe, Cesar salad, and tiramisu. Margarita Pizza- (8/10)-not overly salty well cooked and thin crust good ratio of sauce to cheese Cacio e pepe (9/10)-not overly creamy pasta was a little to al dente for me but love the black pepper and cheese flavor Cesar salad (6/10)-bit too crunchy not too much flavor, focaccia was little soggy Tiramisu (10/10)-favorite dish! Soaked with khalua not overly sweet and good coffee flavor Overall service is fast and they have HH! Would love to try the sandwiches my next visit!

Margherita Pizza
Tony S.

My classmate and I were looking for lunch after a long day of fire training and legal proceedings at the courthouse. Came back to this gem and it's 2 for 2! Came in and was greeted by the friendly staff. Plenty of open space and seating for both sunny days and rainy weather. Really good music and vibes all around! I ordered the margarita pizza and an iced latte. Barista always makes great recommendation for sweetness so if you ask them they'll hook it up indefinitely. Check it out!

Rigatoni Bolognese
Nicki T.

Great place for a quick lunch break. Panini and turkey sandwich were huge portion. Fresh and tasty. We also got the Rigatoni Bolognese. Highly recommend. Definitely come back to try more item. One issue is the parking, very crowded building, not much of space even on the street. Best to come before or after the lunch rush.

Sara C.

-The food was amazing! -we sat out in the common area and really enjoyed our meal. -The only issue was the music was so loud inside we had to yell out order. (My parents had a really hard time in the actual store)

Maya A.

The food was good and the ambiance was okay, but I was really disappointed by the extra charges. They charged $6 just for buffalo sauce, and adding chicken cost another $7. That feels like a rip-off, especially since even many high-end restaurants don't charge that much for simple add-ons. The taste was okay, but honestly, nothing special enough to justify those prices. Overall, I expected better value for the money.

Green Goddess Salad
Danica V.

First of all I love the open shared space they have with Rye Goods. Great spot for meet ups and doing work. Plenty of seating. Good for kids to roam around but bring your own entertainment. Parlor offers a variety of selection from appetizers salads panini pasta and pizzas of course. I tried their green goddess salad. Yet the dressing was good , the salad was so disappointing, portions were so small perhaps only a few pieces of herbs with 2 small pieces of avocado, very much lacking overall Would suggest not getting this and opt for something else

We arrived around 7:00pm on a weeknight with a minor wait (basically waiting for the early patrons to finish and staff to clean tables). The place isn't really big, so I think coming at staggered time will help. (The demographic we saw that day are aunt-uncle age, young families -- all tend to prefer early dining versus late.) While we were waiting we were able to see what people were ordering, eating. We were caught off guard that they also have day specials - so we decided to get those (lamb and chilean sea bass). The meal came with complementary focaccia bread, salad, and pasta. It was all very fulfilling with leftover work lunch to spare! The price for this "combo" and portions given were very reasonable (we think) compared to bigger chain restaurants. The Chilean sea bass was 2 fillets (odd shaped, maybe that's why they gave 2), $4x with bread, salad, pasta side. The lamb was cooked to requested temp and was 5 pieces, $4x with bread, salad, pasta side. We both only ate about half our pasta sides so that we can 100% finish our actual entree, that's how deep/generous the pasta bowl was! We were able to fill up 2 takeout small black circle containers - perfect for lunch if you add your own leftovers protein! (Or TV dinner leftover for 1 person) My husband paid, so I didn't know the exact itemized prices. Will definitely come again!

We asked if we could have our clams with linguini pasta instead of spaghetti? NO, came his reply. The portions were small, they use store bought mushrooms for their resotto, instead of the more expensive ones. We had to get up a few times to ask for help, with our kind bus boy doing most of the work. It was so subpar for the price. I could give you a list of great Italian restaurants within a few miles of this place with great service and huge portions.

The caprese was not sliced and the presentation was not great. At the end instead of checking in how our meal was or take your time, we got the bill left. Before she walked completely away I mentioned about ordering a tiramisu to go and she said she would need to adjust the bill. Then I reminded her of the dessert she mentioned. Possibly a mistake but just not a great overall experience. We provided feedback through a survey and we were thanked for our feedback and not that I expected anything but Angela B who responded stated she would send a e-gift card but nothing came even with follow up but overall, it just continued the overall experience. I have enjoyed Cerritos each time I have gone and Brea and plan to go there next time.
