“I ordered 3 frozen pizzas of yours from my daughter's fundraiser and OMG! I was the first one to have it and from the first bite I was shocked at how much flavor it had. My daughter had some tonight and her first bite her eyes widened and exclaimed, THAT IS SO GOOD! Normally she'll eat a few bites and put it down but not with this pizza. She devoured three sizes.. Not a crumb left. So if your frozen pizza has this WOW factor, I can imagine what a fresh one tastes like. You've definitely earned a new customer!”

Cake Pop

“Not only were these cake pops delicious, but so beautifully and professionally decorated! They were the perfect dessert to bring to one of my holiday parties. I would recommend them for kids or adults. Everyone loved them! The owner even went out of her way to deliver my cake pops when I was unable to pick them up. Definitely snag some for your upcoming event. I’ll be ordering again soon!”

“Great service. Mostly a take out place, which is expected. In my opinion, they need to ramp up the flavor/spice, and change out or filter their frying oil. I ordered a Pu Pu platter the other day and we couldn’t eat most of it because the batter was so bad because of the frying oil…”

“Parsley in Middletown is a go-to for fresh, flavorful Mediterranean food. From crispy falafel and juicy shawarma to vibrant salads and homemade sauces, every bite is satisfying and made with care. The Family Mixed Grill is a highlight—perfect for sharing, it comes piled with tender shish kebab, chicken and lamb kebabs, and perfectly grilled lamb chops. Generous portions and bold seasoning make it a must-try. Don’t skip dessert—the homemade kunafa is warm, gooey, and deliciously crisp. Pair it with their baklava or ma’amoul cookies for a sweet finish. For a more relaxed experience, head to the cozy second-floor dining room—great for enjoying your meal in a quieter setting. Friendly service and consistently great food make Parsley a true gem on Main Street.”

“First time at this restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised. Staff were very friendly. Many options to choose from. I ordered Alambre. It was a skillet meal with steak, peppers and onions smothered in cheese, served with rice and beans. With it came five mini tortillas. This meal was very flavorful and filling. Also ordered was a burrito filled with steak, rice, beans, pico de gallo and cheese. Prices are very reasonable, atmosphere is good and the service was excellent.”

“This place is amazing in all regards, it is our go-to dining out spot of choice. As others have noted, the birria is absolutely incredible. The detail that brings my family in consistently is that it is a standard meat you can order any of their many offerings with. Kudos for that idea ! Note: They are no longer at 50 Rapallo avenue. They moved right around the corner to a more visible location that will get more foot traffic passing by, I hope it works out well for them. I believe the attached map has the new location correctly shown, the posted address has not been updated. As of mid April 2026, they were closed to renovate the new location, I was told their projected re-opening was going to be in early - mid May. Good idea to call first. If the owners or any customers have an update on that, it would be great to post. My daughter and I are suffering from La Casa Mania birria withdrawals and need a fix soon !”

“1st visit. Ordered take out & grabbed a coffee during the brief wait. Service was efficient & friendly. Establishment was clean & welcoming. I deeply appreciate that they offer tofu. We ordered the “Vito” swapping chicken out for tofu & the “Cypress Garden” sandwiches… both were delicious. The prices were reasonable for the high quality of the ingredients. One was $10 the other $12 & this price even included choice of side: pasta salad, apple or chips. We chose the lemon basil pasta salad & it was just as delicious as the sandwich’s. Thank you…you’ve won this customer over for sure!”

My boyfriend and I enjoyed corn chowder, hash, special blueberry pie stuffed French toast, and a special queso Philly cheesesteak “mess” which was like an omelet with all the Philly ingredients plus jalapeños. Deb joked and said I’d need a nap after the meal. Everything was SO GOOD!!! And I do enjoy a nap. Big fan. So many more things I can’t wait to try!”
