AMAZING FOOD! I had the chicken caprese sandwich and it was so delicious. Chicken was cooked perfect. Our server was so kind.

This place is my goto stop when I'm in NYC. The meatballs and the vodka sauce are legendary. The vodka sauce is so good, I'd eat it with a spoon. Stop here, you won't be disappointed. read more

I had the rigatoni carbone. It was good. The restaurant is pretty small. I sat at the bar as a party of one. The music playing was good. The service is where everything falls apart. The staff is largely inattentive, even when you're sitting at the bar. There's alot of personal conversations happening amongst themselves. Also, my single pasta dish took 40 minutes to come out. Probably wouldn't come back due to the service. read more

I walked in after work for a solo dinner, excited to try this place for the first time. Unfortunately, my experience was immediately unwelcoming and disorganized. There was no host present to greet guests, provide direction, or explain the seating process. I noticed two people waiting and asked if they were waiting for a table, which they confirmed. When a seat at the bar became available, I went to take it, assuming it was open seating. The bartender, who had not acknowledged or greeted me upon arrival--aggressively and rudely said, "You can't sit here, there are people waiting." The situation could have easily been handled with basic hospitality and communication. Instead, the interaction felt unnecessarily rude and left me uncomfortable. The couple eventually decided they wanted to sit at the bar, but by then the experience had already been soured. I ended up leaving without ordering. A restaurant's "popularity" should never come at the expense of basic hospitality, clear communication, and making guests feel welcome. read more

Their eggplant parm and spicy rigatoni is the best in the city! I constantly crave this meal and no other eggplant parm lives up to this one. The platter is so filling and lasts for two meals! You are missing out if you haven't tried this! read more

Parm was recommended to me by a friend, and they definitely didn't let me down. We had a reservation, which was easy to make online. The service was fast and friendly. Most importantly, the food. I still think about the chicken parm and pasta. It was to die for. The perfect amount of cheese. Parm is super cute and cozy on the inside. We were in the corner, and I did have to trade places with my sister because I feel super claustrophobic. Be aware of that is it is a concern you may have. read more

On my most recent trip to NYC, I realized that I happened to be near Parm and went to see if I could walk in for lunch. This is the famous Carbone's sister restaurant, and it is my understanding that they serve many of the same dishes in a more casual setting. They happened to have one table available! I was so thrilled and the waitress could not have been any nicer. I ordered the famous spicy rigatoni carbone and it totally exceeded all of my expectations! It was so delicious and fresh, and I totally understand the hype. read more

My first time here and it will definitely not be my last. The place is very small inside. You basically have to seat on the bar, there are only 3 small tables by the sidewalk. The employees are very friendly and attentive. The food is very good at least the food I ate. I will be eating here again soon to try new things. 10 out of 10 recommendations read more

Parm 248 Mulberry St. New York, NY 10012 The name of this mini restaurant chain enticed me to explore their CP entrée. The ambiance is casual with oldies music playing in the background. This plate was on the spicy side; this the first time I was offered red pepper seasoning for the dish. The fusilli was smothered in creamy vodka sauce and was very tasty. The only drawback about the pasta was there was an overwhelming amount; I would have preferred a slightly larger cutlet and less pasta. The cutlet itself was overall decent. There was a perfect ratio of mozzarella cheese and sauce and the basil leaf added a nice flavor. The sauce on the cutlet was not the same was the sauce on the fusilli, but I still enjoyed it. The cutlet definitely needed more breading. #chickenparm #chickenparmesan #parm #parmnyc #chickenparmreview #fusilli read more

Visited for lunch so I finally got to partake in the $25 lunch special (I did also get an Aperol spritz. I would argue that Parm has one of the best Aperol spritz if you like yours a little sweeter and not too bitter). For my appetizer, I got a small Caesar salad. It was a standard Caesar with croutons that had the essence of bone marrow. I was intrigued. My entrée was the rigatoni Carbone. I have only tasted it one other time and I would say this time it tasted a lot better. I do still prefer to get the bolognese here, but as part of the lunch deal, I was satisfied with this. It was tasty! I ended my meal with the brownies which tasted fine but were a little dry. If you prefer fudgy brownies like me, these may not be your cup of tea.   I have said it before and I'll say it again - Parm is probably one of my favorite restaurants in the city. I can't get enough of it and I'll be back again and again AND AGAIN! read more

Parm has been around a while, and I finally made it to the original location. It's classic, old-school Italian-American comfort food. The space is pretty small and they don't take reservations, so keep that in mind. I grabbed a seat at the bar during happy hour, weekdays from 3 to 7. The drink menu is limited, but a white wine did the job. It does get busy, though the bar is full service, which helps. We started with the garlic bread, cut into six pieces and sprinkled with parm. You HAVE TO add the fresh mozzarella. *chef's kiss* I went with the chicken parm platter, which came with rigatoni carbone. The pasta was perfectly al dente. The spicy vodka sauce was good but could have used a bit more heat. The chicken parm itself was solid and comforting. Overall, I'd recommend it and would definitely come back. read more

Absolutely delicious chicken parm. Adequate portions - not big enough to share between two people but still really good. If you get there early they have happy hour deals too. Note the location is very small so you might end up eating at the bar or waiting for a table to open up. Can't wait to go back again soon read more

It was a beautiful Friday in early November - in the 60s during the day and night about 50. Not so bad! We had a long day of touring lower east side and stayed in battery park city. But, walked all over SoHo and NoLita and found ourselves in Little Italy and turned on to Mulberry Street. We passed a bunch of places but since it was so nice out felt like walking the length of blocks to see what looked good. Our daughter wanted Italian, so we were in the right place! We saw a line outside of Parm with many food delivery drivers waiting for orders as well as others queuing for a table. Our daughter had just eaten next door at the Gray Dog a month ago, so that was a funny coincidence finding Parm. We were told we could get a table in the back past the vibrant and active bar seating. But, we opted to wait to sit outdoors. We still wanted to enjoy the great weather and have al fresco dining! So glad we waited. Shoutout to Sarah, our server - who was super helpful, friendly and patient with our questions and recommended the Gavi white wine asked difference between the gavi or verdicchio white wine to order - said it was still Happy Hour (3-7pm M-F) and it was a FriYay! Ordered prosecco and very much enjoyed the refreshingly crisp bubbly! Who can pass up Chicken Parm at a place called, Parm? I definitely couldn't and it didn't disappoint. Not only was it a large portion of both chicken and fusilli, it was all my husband raved about days later remarking it was one of the best Parms he's ever had! We 3 shared a good portion of it. I couldn't eat the entire order myself. Our daughter ordered the rigatoni Carbone which was luscious, creamy pasta to dream about. Spicy but not so much you couldn't put your fork down. kept wanting more. We all would definitely order that again! Husband's fusilli bolognaise was tasty but believe the pasta was just a little overdone. But, we enjoyed it still. The appetizers were good and nice portions of, standard apps - fried calamari that we ate so quickly, and the fresh mozzarella and prosciutto. We really enjoyed Parm and eating outdoors! The street is closed off to traffic so you can relax and converse without cars whizzing by. Funny thing also is we stayed at the Conrad in Battery Park City and the next day we looked out our window and right across the street was another Parm restaurant! Glad we went to Mulberry Street though because we went around the corner and ventured for Italian pastries! Parm had cannolis and ice cream, which I'm sure are also good. But, we wanted to walk a bit and sit in a cafe. Thanks again for a memorable evening. Will be back. read more

Super tiny restaurant that barely has room for anybody except for sitting at the bar. My goodness is it tiny! Best to go when it is not so busy so you will not be thrown aside. Business size aside, this restaurant serves up some of the tastiest (and also some of the most expensive) pasta in Manhattan. That is why the review is only getting three stars out of five. The quality is amazing, and from my understanding, the owners of this restaurant have also opened two other restaurants of similar quality, Carbone and Torrisi. They are both two pasta shops that I hope to try one day. In the meantime, this review is about Parm, the original location in Little Italy. I followed my advice and went during Happy Hour, where they serve $6 appetizers. I went with the mozzarella sticks, and at first, it seemed like a good decision as you get plenty of them (six to be exact) along with marinara sauce. They look pretty, and definitely look homemade, but after that, I ran into problems. The mozzarella sticks are super dense, enough to sink the Titanic. I felt like if I ate all six of them I would not be able to eat my dinner. This was a disappointment. The Rigatoni Carbone was what I got for dinner and that is a winner in every sense of the word. It has great spice, but not too spicy. A nice amount of acid from the sauce, the pasta is cooked to a perfect al dente. The sauce is layered layered beautifully and it is the perfect portion. Finally, someone in Manhattan gets it right. I could not stop eating this because it really is a great dish. Before arriving here, I had heard they make a very good Italian hero, so to compensate without compromising, I got one to go so I can have one for lunch the next day. I hope it holds up, but just to be sure, I asked two employees if it would, and they concurred. Why three stars if the pasta is so amazing? It goes back to my original point. This is expensive pasta for what I received. Yes, the portion is decent and the meal is terrific, but I should not be paying what I paid overall. $50 for a plate of pasta and a ginger ale is way too much (because of the mozzarella sticks disaster my server removed them from the bill). I also felt crammed and out of place at such a restaurant. This caters to the wealthy. I am not made of money. The people next to me screamed NY transplants to the point that I felt that I was the one who did not belong, and I am from here! That hurt. I will keep it as a bookmark as I will likely order here again for takeout, but that will likely be a long shot. A tiny long shot, much like the size of this restaurant. read more

We were able to be immediately seated at the counter, ordered the fried calamari and a chicken parm on hero. Calamari also included fried Italian peppers, light crispiness and not oily, came with marinara sauce and spicy mayo dips. The hero bread was great, soft with lots of sesame seeds. We're served quickly and waitress was very pleasant. read more

Most dry chicken I have ever had. I ate 3 bites and didn't eat anymore. Why I am writing to you is because I told me server it was dry when she took it away and she didn't apologize or do anything. I have a photo of the plate she took and she 100% should have said why did you not eat anything of this. Really dissapointing meal. Caesar salad was great! Carbone rigatoni is better but this wasn't too far off for the price. read more

Yummy italian spot in Soho!! Apparently a very longtime staple. Their scampi was sooo good. I was choosing between this and the chicken parm but the waitress said that the Penne Scampi is her personal favorite so of course I had to get that! I really recommend it. I havent had penne pasta quite like this, but it was super flavorful. My friend got the chicken parm platter which was so huge, good bang for ur buck. Garlic bread was pretty good too. I thought it'd just be a stick, but turned out to be a whole loaf. Buttery! Calamari was not too bad either. Great if you're in the area and craving some italian food read more

Best spicy rigatoni pasta! I had several different versions and hands down this was my favorite. Parm has a lunch special which you can get an appetizer, main and dessert for 25 bucks which is great. I opt for the pizza rolls which are like garlic knots but much more airy and crunchy at the same time. It was delicious paired with their marinara sauce. For my main was the spicy rigatoni pasta. It was delicious and soooo good. For dessert I got the brownie. It was good but I also had it cold since I took it to go. Overall everything was delicious and will be back at this locations. Just an fyi- this is a super small location for big groups. Would recommend battery park for larger groups. read more

I've been to Parm before but at a food hall in Las Vegas so I was excited to actually visit one of their stores. I came here on a Sunday night and was seated immediately. Staff were super nice and friendly! I ordered the Chicken Parm Plate and Garlic Bread. I wasn't a big fan of the garlic bread but the chicken parm plate was really good. The pasta that came with it was a little spicy but I liked it! I had ordered the plate to be shared and they already split it for us, which was really nice. I got the Chicken Parm Sandwich last time and liked it better, so I'd get that if I went back. Overall, great Italian spot! read more

Parm - Disappointing spaghetti and meatballs (overly salty - couldn't finish). - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Know before you go: The restaurant does not take reservations and they seat full parties only. You can't put your name on any sort of list, you have to physically stand outside the restaurant and wait until your table is ready. On a hot, sunny day, the waiting game was not fun. When you are eventually called to your table, you finally understand why they don't take reservations. The dining room is the size of a shoe box. They do have a bar, with probably 8-10 chairs. But both the bar and the dining room are tight. The chicken parm hero was good. The vodka rigatoni wasn't as good as it was at UWS location. Also, the UWS location takes reservations, and has a much larger space. read more

Service great, no doubt about that one. Ambiance also good love the vibes and feel in there. Food however has increasingly downhill. Went twice in one week to see if it was just a off day. Rigatoni almost no sauce both times dry as heck and for the price that portion is lacking bad. Won't be returning and wasting my hard earned money there anymore. Don't know what happened but i use to always recommend this place to people. I can see and understand the ratings now. read more

Actually had reservations at another restaurant and they couldn't seat us so we took a walk and saw Parm. Parm is one of my favorites on the west side and this location in Nolita has so much more character with the same great food. It's a small restaurant with a casual chill vibe. There are tables in the back and we were able to get 2 seats at the bar. Food at Parm is seriously good - I dream of the Rigatoni Carbone. The dish that made Carbone famous. The Al dente rigatoni is tossed in a spicy vodka sauce. It is delicious and a solid choice. The Arugula - a nice salad with arugula and topped with a fig vinaigrette and fresh Parmesan cheese. Great service, even though they were quite busy. So happy I found this location. read more

Okay so there's a lot of excellent restaurants in Little Italy. Sometimes when my family gets together we decide to have a menu we are familiar with and enjoy. Having been to Parm's other locations we were pleased that the food and service was the same as we expected. My daughter typically gets Eggplant Parmesan either the sandwich or the meal. With the meal we get complementary bread and butter. I am partial to the Turkey Sandwich prepared without anything I'm allergic to like tomatoes. The servings are so generous that everyone gets a doggie bag. Service was timely and attentive without being overzealous. If you are in this neighborhood I suggest you check out the menu. Our visiting family members were pleased and so were we. read more

Great little place! Walked in midday on a Saturday and there was no wait. I sat at the bar and Rich (the bartender) took excellent care of me, very friendly and attentive. I had the baked ziti. Generous portion and extremely delicious - perfectly cooked, even chewy/crispy at all the corners (the menu says "always the corner piece" - they must have individual sized cooking pans). Pleasant atmosphere the whole staff seemed friendly. Would definitely come back. I was too full for dessert but next time I want to try the cannoli - the menu says "the best you ever had." Prices are reasonable especially the $25 three-course lunch special (which I didn't get bc it doesn't include a ziti option, but it was very appealing). Overall highly recommended! read more

This past summer August 2024, I had the pleasure of dining at Parm in New York, a sister restaurant to Carbone, which has always been my go-to when I'm in the city. Since we didn't have a reservation for Carbone and couldn't risk waiting as we had a baseball game to catch, we decided to try Parm--and I'm so glad we did! The food at Parm was nothing short of spectacular, and the price point was unmatched. Honestly, after this experience, I might never go back to Carbone. My family and I ordered almost everything on the happy hour menu, sharing each dish so we could sample it all. We also split an entrée featuring the famous spicy rigatoni (also served at Carbone) paired with chicken cutlets. To my surprise, the spicy rigatoni at Parm was even better than Carbone's. What really stood out was the value. We had so much food--far more than we could finish--and spent about half (or less) of what a meal at Carbone would have cost. Unfortunately, since we couldn't take leftovers with us on the train, we gave the untouched food to someone outside who was asking for help, which made us feel good about not letting it go to waste. The service was excellent. We sat at the bar, and it was super easy to walk in, get seated, eat, and be out within an hour and a half--perfect timing for our game. Parm is efficient, delicious, and offers an incredible experience without the hefty price tag. I highly recommend Parm to anyone visiting New York, especially if you're looking for a more affordable alternative to Carbone. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the city! Side bar -- our bartender, gave us amazing service and suggested some drinks on the happy hour menu, which were super light but gave us a slight buzz! read more

I've been here twice and both experiences were great! My partner and I came at the perfect times because we didn't have to wait to be seated either time (there were open seats at the bar which worked perfectly for us). The restaurant itself is pretty tiny so if you're hoping for a table it might be a bit of a wait. The service is always great and the staff is friendly. You can see all the food being prepared as the kitchen is open, which is nice since you can see everything is freshly made to order. We always get the Chicken Parm and the Rigatone Carbone, which are both delicious. When we came for happy hour we also got the Pizza Knots which were so fluffy and tasty, and the Aperol Spritzes which are a classic. read more

The shrimp pasta was a solid 9/10--flavorful and satisfying. But the real standout was the rigatoni carbonara, an easy 10/10. It struck the perfect balance of creamy, tomato-rich, and zesty flavors.

Parma is a definite go to everytime we visit NYC. Everything is so good! We had lunch at the counter this time. The service was quick and friendly. We had the pizza knots, rigatoni, and penne scampi.

update// Invited back by Parm to try the restaurant again. The food is excellent in-restaurant. Conveniently located in SoHo, indoor and outdoor seating - the outdoor seating is particularly well-kept, clean and has a great ambiance. Appreciate that it's not one of those enclosed shipping container type outdoor spaces but an actual dedicated space with umbrellas, tables, etc. The service was very kind and quick. Signature Caesar Salad Covered in powdered parm which really takes away from the dish. Large homemade croutons. Rigatoni Carbone A subtly spicy tomato cream sauce (calabrian chili) with perfectly al dente rigatoni. Their signature dish and for a good reason. Penne Scampi The shrimp here are cut up into smaller pieces and honestly not amazing quality - there is a bit of that strong scent/flavor that comes with frozen shrimp. The garlic sauce is rather light for what it is - doesn't hold a candle to the rigatoni carbone unfortunately. previous review// Extremely disappointed with a delivery experience I had with Parm. Normally the rigatoni carbone comes with plenty of sauce, however on my 04/29 order there was almost no sauce on the dish at all. I've included a side by side comparison of what the dish normally looks like vs what I received. When attempting to contact the restaurant, all their automated redirects automatically hang up the phone without directing you to anyone, which is again, unacceptable. read more

I had been wanting to try Parm for a long time because I love eggplant parmesan and happy to report that I really enjoyed it! I ordered the eggplant parm platter with a side of the spicy rotini. It cost $25. The portion was actually pretty big and I had a lot leftover that I snacked on for a few days after. I'm not normally that into vodka sauce but after reading reviews I wanted to try it and I'm glad I did. Takeout was easy. I ordered after 7pm on a weekend and the food was ready in 15 minutes.
