We enjoyed a Caesar salad and Donna Rosa pizza. The salad had the right amount of dressing and very fresh crispy romaine. The pizza was perfectly cooked and very fresh ingredients. Would definitely be back if in the area again. read more

My son-in-law and I ordered the cheeseburger egg rolls today and there was about 1 teaspoon of meat or filling in each one. We'll never order these again. They were very greasy and tasted like old oil. My daughter enjoyed the lasagna. read more

Ive eaten inside once. It's a small place and it's literally tavern vibes. I will say that their pizza is delicious. Any version is great. This is where my family gets their pizza from ! read more

Parma Tavern - 12" Gluten Free Donna Rosa 12" Gluten Free BBQ Chicken - Italian Near Me - Buford, Georgia

I was super disappointed. We were both starving after the workout and decided to check out Parma. It's a typical tavern atmosphere, super casual, dim lighting with typical tavern food like pizza, burgers, pasta and beer. The booth we sat in was not really all that comfortable. We both ordered the Italian tacos, which was chicken, cheese, and cherry tomatoes. I also ordered the Boom Boom tacos which was supposed to taste like bang bang shrimp. They were heavily breaded, and just didn't have much pizazz. The Italian tacos were even worse. I ordered a chipotle sauce, but they still tasted so bland. My boyfriend said the same thing. I can't believe that chicken is marinated, because it literally tasted like it had no seasoning whatsoever. I don't understand why the high ratings here, or if we just ordered the wrong thing, but it was definitely a miss for the both of us. read more

This place is terrible. Run down, poorly managed, and a bartender who is clueless. Had a ridiculous wait for the type of place. Tried to get a drink while we waited, but the bartender was too busy chatting, so that didn't happen. Place is dirty, hot and humid inside. Food less than mediocre. read more

This is like my local spot. I hated to do it but I needed delivery. And since I love this place, of course I'll pay the extra fees for it. I always dine in and its amazing. Im just guessing cause I used a delivery service, they said f you. 18$ for a small piece of salmon and fake crab sprinkles. Reuben egg rolls with NO corned beef I mean none. I ate Sauerkraut in a wrap. Awful! I paid a lot for this and I get delivery is now frowned apon. But im a loyal customer and I paid way too much for fake crab and Sauerkraut egg rolls. Honestly I would have asked for my money back. Very disappointed and out a lot of money. read more

We have been coming to Parma for years. Food has always been on point (with only a few hiccups over the years). Pizza, burgers, sides, apps -- all very good! The service has been consistent -- super sweet, the atmosphere is pretty good with a mixed crowd of date night couples, friend groups hanging out, and families (before 10pm or else it's a 21+ crowd!), the live entertainment, and it's fairly close by. ALL GOOD. My problem is CLEANLINESS. Our booth was right next to the counter in the back. Our vantage point allowed us to see the pizza making station. The gentleman was taking pound and pounds of bacon out of the box, made pizza, used the yucky-looking rag to wipe the counter and pizza oven, grabbed the broom and dustpan to sweep, propped up on the wall, touching tickets, handling delivery pickups, BACK to chopping bacon, and making pizzas. AND DIDNT CHANGE GLOVES. NOT ONCE. I couldn't even enjoy my food after seeing that. We never saw such food safety issues with the regular pizza guy. I know there are probably unfathomable things that go on in the food industry, but I can't unsee what I saw. Sorry - I can't go back. read more

My husband and I were trying to find a place open past midnight for a quick bite and drink since our schedules have changed... started looking on Yelp and found that Parma Tavern stays open until 2 am so we gave it a try! When we arrived, you can tell this is a "regulars" bar. Very cozy, and very friendly staff too. They had karaoke going on as well. Karaoke was actually really fun. Everyone who sang that night could really sing! The atmosphere was really fun because of it. To start off we ordered a couple of beers and Vegas Bombs. I've had better and cheaper Vegas bombs at other bars but it was only ok here. They have a late night menu that only serves pizza which I was okay with since that is what I was craving. I ordered the "Eat your veggies" pizza which had garlic oil, pesto, spinach, cremini mushrooms, eggplant, sun-dried tomato, red onion, roasted red pepper, and fresh mozzarella. My husband ordered the "Magic Mushroom" pizza which had garlic oil, ricotta-mascarpone, cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, spinach, red onion, and fresh mozzarella The pizzas were truly incredible. Like really, nothing to envy those expensive pizza places in the city. We also tried their Oreo cheesecake and it was okay. In general, the atmosphere was great, server + bartenders were super attentive and fast, stays open late plus really good pizza. Would totally come back here! ESPAÑOL Mi esposo y yo estábamos tratando de encontrar un lugar abierto después de la medianoche para un bocado rápido y una bebida ya que nuestros horarios han cambiado ... comenzamos a buscar en Yelp y descubrimos que Parma Tavern permanece abierto hasta las 2 am, así que lo fuimos a probar! Cuando llegamos, se puede decir que es un bar "habitual". Personal muy acogedor y muy amable también. También tenían karaoke. El karaoke fue realmente divertido. Todos los que cantaron esa noche realmente pueden cantar! El ambiente fue muy divertido por eso. Para empezar pedimos un par de cervezas y Vegas Bombs. He tenido Vegas bombs mejores y más baratas en otros bares, pero aquí solo estuvo bien. Tienen un menú nocturno que solo sirve pizza, con lo que estaba bien, ya que eso es lo que quería comer. Pedí la pizza "Eat your veggies" que tenía aceite de ajo, pesto, espinacas, champiñones cremini, berenjena, tomate secado al sol, cebolla morada, pimiento rojo asado y mozzarella fresca. Mi esposo pidió la pizza "Magic Mushroom" que tenía aceite de ajo, ricotta-mascarpone, champiñones cremini, champiñones shiitake, espinacas, cebolla morada y mozzarella fresca Las pizzas son realmente increíbles. En realidad, nada que envidiar a esas caras pizzerías de la ciudad. También probamos su tarta de queso de Oreo y estuvo bien. En general, el ambiente era genial, nuestro mesera + los bartenders eran super atentos y rápidos, permanece abierto hasta tarde y muy buena pizza. ¡Volvería totalmente aquí! read more

Parma Tavern: Surely when I saw the tiny tiny container, I was shocked that the Parma's JULY MONTH SPECIAL Banana Pudding, priced $8, that it would be enough to feed two people. I paid almost $10 for one very tiny tiny kids container of banana pudding barely able feed one person!!!! Guess what. Not going to order desserts from you again. I am better off buying the Patti Labelle Banana Pudding at Walmart for $10 - which I haven't tried yet - since there would be more to share. I didn't even get a bite of dessert! This is worse than the two tiny cannolis you serve. The lasagna and mista side salad are still good though. read more

Drive around Mall of GA area restaurants facing the hour wait everywhere. Decided to stop at Parma- we'd been there for a great brunch and figured it's worth the wait at least (compared to the chains.) Got quoted 25 min and we were in and seated within 10. Yes! Service from hostess to waitress was outstanding tonight. Had a tasty GA Peach Mule- their drinks are awesome here! Smooth! Delicious! Appetizer: potachos- these were HOMEMADE potato chips smothered in a creamy cheese sauce. Delicious isn't strong enough a word. We devoured this. Dinner: Alfredo with chicken and a shrimp salad. The chicken was shaved and well seasoned. The breadstick with the Alfredo was very fresh. They have great dessert but we were so full. Already planning our next trip. read more

Adding to my previous raving reviews of Parma, I wanted to thank Parma and their staff for the great times they have given me and my mother these last three years. We were lucky to find this place a few years ago and as my aging mother was not progressing well she always wanted to come here for food and she loved being recognized , She loved the food, especially the calamari , pizza, and a good cocktail and they always accommodated me with her in a wheelchair and allowed me to take her to the bathroom for assistance without any politics or odd looks as I'm wheeling her into a bathroom to help her in the women's room. I moved her out of assisted-living in Dacula this past March as I was not going to let her stay any longer locked up which is where she moved to when we found this gem of a place and heading there now to give them a toast for the great food, service, caring staff who always helped me with her and saw us coming and would have our table ready, and hold the doors open and welcome us by name. She passed away a few weeks ago and as she was beginning to be unable to eat I did manage to make a couple of trips to pick her up some calamari or a chicken club or her favorite mushroom Pizza which were some of the last meals she had. She was a definite foodie so thank you Parma for making her final days pleasant and tasty! I've already brought all my kids , brothers and grandkids to Parma and they will always have a place in my life. You don't know how much your support meant to me and her. The friendly neighborhood pub. Highly recommend !!! read more

Parma: woah! This place was awesome. What was so awesome you ask? We'll, everything. Staying in a nearby hotel, my colleague and I were referred here by the front desk. Upon entering, we were met by the friendliest staff, and a bustling tavern of happy people. I had a Paloma followed by a local lager. Both were tasty. We shared the eggplant chips, which were bomb.com! I had a pizza, and my colleague a chicken parm sammy. Both items were so good! The vibe was rocking too, a lot of fans enjoying the place! The manager stopped by our table during the experience to check in which was nice, and something lost in todays restaurant world. Our server Jordyn was AMAZING! I'll be back if I'm in Buford again read more

Such wonderful experience- the food and service were both perfect. The restaurant seemed family friendly but also perfect for a date night. It's in a strip shopping center but don't let that fool you thinking it's not delicious and nice, because it's lovely inside and the staff are very attentive read more

We had a party of 11. We advised we would be happy to be split up in the very beginning. In the back there are 2 eight tops. One empties after 45 minutes and they seat 8 of us while the other 3 are waiting ( they are waiting on the other eight top to leave. In the mean times there is a booth available. I ask if we ( the last 3 can sit there) hostess and then manager say no. They want us to wait for the other 8top to leave so 3 people can sit there. Did I mention we had been waiting 50 minutes? Stupid manager of the year goes to William. On a good note AJ was a great server. 7 of us stayed and 4 left. The kids were starving. read more

This was my second time at Parma. We had a reservation for 8 on a Friday night. Our waitress was so sweet and incredibly helpful with all of us! We all ordered different drinks and different appetizers. My drink was the Ba Humbag with whiskey and pomegranate, 10/10 on that I had two! The calamari and fried eggplant chips were the winners in appetizers. I love the environment here. I will definitely be returning to try more things. read more

Review based off of Uber Eats delivery. Grabbed 3 different pies and some wings from Parma and was impressed. Pies had good toppings, nice thin crust (not crispy tho so if that's your thing be prepared to be disappointed) good quality ingredients. Wings were nice and plump, could've used a bit more sauce but still liked them. Would definitely consider getting again. read more

Always a great meal and great people. Come here once a month and never a bad experience. Love this place! Please check it out read more

Parma Tavern - Special menu. Looks amazing. Want to get the apple pie! - Italian Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Visited here this past weekend on a whim and it did not disappoint. Pizza was amazing! The crust... wow! I could eat that by itself! BBQ sauce wasn't too sweet. The chicken on this pizza was super flavorful, tender, and juicy! The "spring breaker" cocktail was great, too! It was a very clean restaurant where you could see into the kitchen as they were making your food. Great service! Highly recommend. If I didn't live so far away, I'd frequent this restaurant often! read more

Parma Tavern - 8" BBQ Chicken - Italian Near Me - Buford, Georgia

We are new to this area and we have been eating at mostly Korean restaurant (due to its abundance here) and my kids wanted something different. Because of to its name, I thought it was a bar when I first saw it while visiting Danji(next door Korean chicken and street-food), but with the help of Yelp, I found that it was family friendly. They had kids menu! My kids got a cheese and pep pizza and enjoyed their crispy crust. Its fire oven pizza so the crust os crispy and not the normal American pizza. One of the kids have NUT ALLERGIES and the server informed us that the only nut they use is pine nut and she said she will inform the kitchen. We had no reactions! The mushroom pizza was yummy, but I felt that the dough could use some salt. As the toppings had mild flavors, the dough could definitely used a little more salt. I had to top it with lots of parm cheese to give it a lil more taste. My husband liked its blandness as he said its bland enough that he could eat a lot of it. Calamari was tender and good but it was definitely not with $12. I would say perhaps $10 would have been more appropriate for what we were getting. We will visit to try their pasta dish when we are tired of eating Korean food again. Btw, the server was very attentive and extremely helpful! Great service makes us want to return! Good experience for sure. read more

This place came up in my google recommendations while I was trying to find something to eat in the area. I place a pickup order. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken & fried calamari. The calamari was fresh but lacked any type of seasoning in the batter. The marinara dipping sauce was bland. The Alfredo pasta noodles tasted undercooked. The sauce didn't even taste like Alfredo. The grilled chicken had no type of flavor. I highly doubt I will try this place again. First impressions are big deal breakers. $40 wasted read more

This place has excellent food and outstanding service! I've been here twice now, discovered via Yelp when I had a pizza and tequila craving. And everything I've ordered thus far has been delish! And the PIZZA ! Hands down the BEST PIZZA I'VE HAD since moving to GA from the west coast. Each time I've come I ordered the veggie pizza + pepperoni and both times bomb!! Today we also ordered the calamari and the wings. Best calamari I've had in forever and the wings were in point too! AJ was our waiter and he was great! This is definitely my new favorite pizza spot and I can't even imagine ordering pizza from somewhere else. There must be something unique about their wood fire oven. I've been to other places, and other pizzas don't come close! Thank you Parma for being so dang delish! read more

In continuing my search for a good pizza in the north side of Georgia, my wife and I had a chance to meet our good friends Paul and Anni for a nice lunch along with my little buddy Augustus! @parmatavern always gets PACKED so we decided to get there right as they opened up at 11AM. For how small the place is they do a good job at making room for plenty of tables without it feeling cramped up. Service was spectacular and all our food came out fairly quickly (my pizza made it out last). I ordered their 8inch small personal Margherita pizza (tomato sauce, mozzarella, oregano, thyme, olive oil, basil) and I think I learned something new about pizzas... don't order smaller personal sized pizzas! It's harder for me to judge and not fair to compare to other full sized pizzas, HOWEVER... this pizza was tasty and delicious. The crust isn't ultra thin so if you prefer pizzas that aren't ultra thin, this is a good spot for you to try. Their mc&cheese is probably a good 7/10 for me, which surprised me because it's hard to find good mc&cheese these days. I would rate it better IF it had more cheese flavor and if it was a bit more creamy, this sauce was a little more on the soft side. That being said, it was still delicious and had a LOT of chicken. Last but not least... garlic knots!!! I love the way these are twisted and fried to perfection, definitely happy with them. My friend @yellowplates saw that they had a DONUT BURGER and decided to go for it I've had a hard time finding a donut burger I liked so I was curious to see what she thought. She didn't seem impressed either because the sweetness of the donut AND BBQ sauce were just too much to where it overpowered the cheese, bacon, and burger patty. Maybe without the BBQ sauce it'd be better? Just too much. Tasty food, fun menu, good service.... I'll be back but I'll keep looking for that best By the way, park in the back!! #rolieats #goodeats #goodfood #goodcompany #goodfriends #pizzasearch #pizza #parmatavern #buford #mc&cheese #donutburger #garlicknots #allthefood read more

Wanted to try this place for some time. Despite the dingy appearance, we decided to stay to see if the food was worth it. It wasn't. I had a French dip, and wife had a pizza. Pizza was good, not great. French dip was a total disappointment. I will say, the fries were outstanding. Service was good, and staff was friendly. The entire time I sat here, I just kept looking at how dirty the place is. Even with the low light, it's disgusting. Can't recommend, and won't return. read more

The service and drinks are worth a second visit! Drinks - Very good! Potchos- were ok, lacked a bit of flavor I was expecting loaded potatoes but bar style & on chips BBQ Chicken Pizza - chicken could use more seasoning or salt/pepper Pepperoni Pizza - sadly this fell apart once we sliced it, maybe too much sauce not sure. Would return for drinks read more

Decent amount of parking available by the resultant, but it does get busy during peak hours. Most staff didn't wear masks and there mmmmm no social distancing. Calamari: fresh, hot and crispy! It's not the typically calamari I have had...it's a bigger chunk of calamari than the typical small more breading ones. Love the tartare sauce. Meatatarian pizza: nice and hot fresh out of the oven. It is more thin, which I like. But the meat was a bit overwhelming for me, after the first piece it was too salty. Mahi tacos: love it! The sauce was amazing and the mahi tasted great. Side Cesar salad: very standard but paired with balsamic vinaigrette. More acidic and compliments the pizza nicely. Overall love the vibe, the food was great (would opt for a different pizza next time), service was good, and well priced alcohol. Can't beat $2 house draft! Would love to check it out when there is live music playing. read more
