Peanut Park Trattoria Reviews
The owner is one of the biggest pieces of sewage waste I have ever had the displeasure of working with. Used me and my talents then let me go two days before my raise and health insurance kicked in. He's pretty much disliked by the entire staff and everyone around him in general. His presence is enough to make one miserable. Maybe think twice before giving this horrible person your money.
We've never been disappointed in our half dozen visits to Peanut Park. The pizzas are great, sausage and peppers appetizer, the pastas, and a great hazelnut gelato! The service is friendly. Parking is easy.
There's a certain kind of nostalgia in a neighborhood restaurant like this. We'll be back!
I've been to Peanut Park twice! It was amazing both times. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. We had the focaccia (the ricotta reminds me of my trip to Italy *yum*), chicken parm, scallops, and more. My fave thing at Peanut Park is the tiramisu. The best!! We can't wait to go back.
