Last night we finally went to Parmesan Pete’s which was recommended by @Phoenikia. So good and so fun
The joint was rammed but we scored a semi last minute reservation. The vibe was boisterous, the service was quick and friendly(maybe a little too friendly?
), but that’s part of the old school shtick I guess.I definitely over ordered once again, but who knows if or when I’ll be back so it was a case FOMO.
I ordered the Stuffed Meatball-chilled ricotta and house gravy. Delicious
Also had a small Caesar salad, lots of garlic/lemon and anchovy. Good but not mind blowing, probably should have skipped this.
For the main I absolutely had to order the Veal Parm. This thing was massive!! Smothered in house gravy and muzzarell, crispy edges and soft delicious centre.
When I say it was massive, the photo doesn’t do it justice.
I could only eat about a quarter of it, the rest will be devoured over the next couple of days.
My sister had the Eggplant Parm, which she said was delicious as well. Both entrees were served with a small side of spaghetti in tomato sauce. We also had a couple of glasses of wine. No room for dessert unfortunately.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for old school “classic “ Italian. A bit weird to get to, even with GPS because it’s in the back of an obscure little plaza.
