    The food was fantastic and the portions relative to the size were very reasonable. Honestly, for a more upscale tapas place the cost of each plate is relatively low, as long as you're conscious of the cost of things you're ordering. The mac n' cheese and calamare was outstanding, and most of the other dishes we ordered (empanadas, churros, B.W.D, montadito) were at least good, if not great. The only downside is because the food and service is so good, its incredibly busy. We made a reservation for 8:30 and didn't get sat until 8:50, which was frustrating. Iberian Pig did give a small bread and tomato dish to apologize for the extra wait, but coupled with the strict cancellation policy, it isn't somewhere I would go if I had somewhere to be afterwards.

    Had the valentine prix fixe menu - was excellent and the wine pairings were well matched. The salad starter had pink lettuce, the scallops had pomegrantes in the sauce, and the black forest cake was heart shaped with cherries, emphasizing the Valentine theme. The noise level was reasonable - could talk and hear without raising our voices but we could hear other tables.

    The spaghetti and meatballs were absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The halibut was good, though it was slightly overcooked. The highlight of the experience was the waitress—her professionalism and training were evident in every interaction, making the meal even more enjoyable.

    Parker’s was excellent in every way. The service was superb, the atmosphere was nice: quiet and sophisticated. And the food was terrific. It’s a steak house so I tried the steak and was very happy. High quality beef cooked to perfection with an “au poive” sauce that was heavenly. I’ll definitely be back.
