D'Parma Restaurant — Restaurant in Revere

This is a beautiful restaurant (and truly I had a very delicious meal), and my server was quite lovely... So why two stars? I have never felt so uncomfortable in a restaurant setting in my entire life. It seemed like every 3 to 5 minutes someone was coming and looking at our table. At first I chalked it up to us possibly being the only patrons at the time. However after waiting for quite a while for our food, I noticed that someone would always come over and ask how things were going. Now, I understand it is normal to ask how things are going in the hospitality food service industry, but this was very excessive. I started getting tense when someone just blatantly came over and asked my daughter's father if he wanted his food to go. We were clearly still eating, and he had taken a pause.. however because he didn't want to make things awkward he said yes. There were blatant stares from staff members who weren't our servers, and it just made the whole experience feel rushed. Not long after asking her father if he wanted his food to go they approached my daughter and asked if she wanted her food wrapped up as well (while her fork was still in her hand). After that my stomach turned, and I didn't even want to take my food home with me despite loving everything about the dish. The food was delicious though! I do recommend eating the food from this restaurant, and the server was sweet and kind... It just felt like we were being very rushed, and like we were...

I can’t decide where to start, this place was so good! Traveling to Boston for a volleyball tournament, I searched high and low for a place that serves a variety of food to satisfy picky eaters, and could seat a large group. They were able to reserve a table for my group of 7 with short notice on a Friday evening. When I called to let them know we were stuck in traffic, we were told “no problem, take your time.” Walking in was a treat in and of itself - a warm respite from the bitter Boston winter wind with a homey, quiet atmosphere. A true “hole in the wall” in the city, it has that family-run vibe that makes you feel as though you’ve been invited to dinner by a sweet Italian grandma lovingly called Nonna. All of the staff were quick and polite, and our waiter was especially friendly and funny. I ordered the 4 cheese gnocchi and it exceeded my hopes. I can’t stop thinking about it and wish we lived closer. Everyone else also loved what they ordered. The bread that was brought to the table was still warm from the oven with that perfect crusty exterior and soft pillowy inside. Their homemade salad dressing was also delicious - one kid they should bottle and sell it, and I agree! All 7 of us had a fantastic time, and 5 even returned the following evening for another delicious meal. Thank you all for such a great experience! This group of stressed/exhausted adults and hangry/picky eaters will certainly come back next year when we return to play...

Ordered the Porcini Tortellini, Spinach Ravioli, Quattro Formaggi Gnocchi, and Chicken Risotto. Came with 4 house salads and bread.

Unfortunately the Uber Eats driver was on a bicycle and spilled all 4 dishes. No fault of the restaurant, but an issue with UberEats. No stars deducted for something out of their control.

All of the dishes were bland with no seasoning, the biggest factor being a lack of salt.

-Porcini Tortellini was done well, however the cream sauce had 0 flavor. -Spinach Ravioli tasted store bought, wasn't cooked long enough, and a completely bland filling. -Quattro Formaggi Gnocchi's seemed to be home made, soft, and cooked well. Unfortunately, the sauce had completely congealed by the time the food was delivered, making the dish one big cake shaped like the delivery container. -Chicken Risotto lacked any seasoning in the rice or the chicken. Can be best summed up as a bland mash with no discernable flavor. -House salad dressing was a pink mixture of mostly vinegar, either too sour/bitter to be eaten, making the salad a complete waste.

This restaurant may be worth visiting in person for the above mentioned dishes, however not worth ordering via delivery. While the delivery portion size was quite large, when the food doesn't taste good, it doesn't matter on the...
