Long-time destination for old-world red-sauce Italian fare served by waiters in tuxedos.
From Google Maps reviews.
Great Classic Italian food with great service and atmosphere. Love their Baked clams, fried calamari, stuffed mushrooms, mussels , veal chops, chicken parm and others. Can never go wrong with their food. Can get crowded at evenings so a reservation is always recommended for the evenings. Also their valet parking lot is a heaven sent cause parking in that neighborhood is a nightmare.
We absolutely loved our experience at The Parkside! Driving there was a breeze thanks to the super convenient valet service. As for the food—the Italian cuisine here is fantastic. The dining room has a lovely ambiance, and we had several standout dishes: Eggplant Rollatini: Perfect for sharing if you’re looking for a rich, comforting bite of eggplant, cheese, and sauce. Mushroom Pasta: Incredible flavor with just the right touch of cream in the sauce. Shrimp Cocktail: Features truly super-jum
Lovely Italian restaurant with delicious food and a warm atmosphere. I’ve been coming here for years and have tried several dishes, and I’ve yet to order anything disappointing. The lamb chops are my absolute favorite—always cooked perfectly and so delicious. I also love their espresso martinis. Consistently excellent food, drinks, and service.
