Excellent fish and chips, very good lamb shank. Generous portions.
The restaurant has a nice variety on the menu and good service. We liked it and will eat there again soon.

Ordered Seafood Risotto. It came out on a bed of rice. Asked the waitress (who was awesome) if this was Risotto, she said she'd ask the cook. She came back and said no. She asked if it was ok, No was the answer. Since she wasn't allowed to take it off the bill, it was boxed and taken home to feed to our cat. The cat wouldn't eat it either.
Fyi: The Seafood Risotto was one of the most expensive dishes on the menu.

I love parea. I’ve been here many times. There’s been so many amazing times: sometimes not the best. However; it’s a restaurant and at the end of the day people have their off days! I do miss our favorite food runner…Trinity was always so kind to us even when she was visibly overwhelmed. People come and go though! They have an amazing staff to this day!

The food was just ok. We got stuffed grape leaves for an appetizer and they were dry with no lemon sauce. My wife got the chicken kabob pita and it was not good at all. Overall I was very disappointed in our meal. I would not recommend this place.

We ate a variety of appetizers and everything was delicious! Reminded me of being back in Greece, fresh ingredients, and a lot of love and care put into all the dishes. Well done would definitely come back and the owners Pete and Danny are amazing hosts.

Today was our first and last time at Parea. Unfortunately, it was an unpleasant experience.

What is wrong with you people

My 5 yr old need to use a restroom during the popcorn fest. He almost peed his pants. You would not allow us in your astonishment. I will never go here again. It was our favorite place ever n date night.

25 minutes finally got saganaki.
25 minutes later finally got soup.
25 minutes later finally got "scallop risotto." Two burnt scallops on a bed of mushy RICE-A-RONI.
Embarrassing. Shame on everyone from the top down.
