Since my favorite table was not available, we were seated near the door which allowed cold air to blow in — not comfortable. Food was excellent and Amie did a nice job.

What a huge disappointment. It’s the first time in years since we visited and decided to have Sunday Dinner with family at Paravicinis Italian Bistro. The bread and appetizers was the highlight of the meal. Our guests ordered spaghetti and Sausage we had the Chicken Carmella The spaghetti red sauce tasted like it was straight from can with no seasoning or flavor. The noodles were over cooked what there was of them. The sausage was equally in quality with no taste or seasoning. I upgraded my dinner salad to a Cesar which cost and addition $5.00 and it had little to no seasonings or dressing. It had a whopping three croutons. Worst Cesar salad ever. Our Chicken Carmella was extremely disappointing. The pancetta.was all fat the chicken was cold and had no flavor. The cream sauce was also equally disappointing. No one finished their meals as the food experience was horrible. The service was far but nothing to brag about. Needless to say we won’t be back and would never recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Italian meal. I hostly think Italian chain restaurants put out a better meal

The Chicken Marco was delicious! The Tiramisu was the best I’d ever had. The fried risotto balls were filling & tasty and the perfect start to the meal.

Danny was an excellent waiter. He gave us superb recommendations and provided prompt service, but didn’t hover. The food (chicken artichoke and veal specials) were amazing!

The restaurant was packed and we still managed to be seated within 10 mins. The server was great with recommending the specials and other items. All the items we got were delicious. Tutto de Mare or something like that was SOOOOO good.
