It was a pleasant experience for me to be there today with a party of nine.
The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. Thanks.

In short, skip it. I hope that at some point in their history this place was great. But they seem to be coasting on their laurels. The food was only ok or bad and the service was underwhelming. I ordered the cedar side salad (assuming how could they get that wrong) and it was cafeteria grade at best. I don't even remember my lunch because it was so unmemorable. Considering the price I would rate this very poorly. If they lowered their prices (and therefore my expectations) and would raise my rating to 3 stars.

If you want to be treated with impatient service, come here. Zero stars.
The employees will stare at you and make you uncomfortable when they feel you’ve overstayed your welcome. We ordered apps, meals and dessert - as soon as that check came in, we were expected to pay within 5 minutes becfore they began acting like vultures. They didn’t have the decency to respectfully ask us to hurry due to their schedule. We didn’t know- so Come here to eat and leave as quickly as possible. I feel so embarrassed for bringing friends there tonight. Never again! Too many other great restaurants with welcoming atmospheres and kind employees who would be glad to have your business. Their manager was unwilling to even apologize or acknowledge this negative experience. 0 stars.

Been going here for decades. There was a period where it started to go downhill and we stopped because it just wasn't worth the money. However I am thrilled to say Ecola is back in full force and the food is better today than it ever was at any time in their history. Just don't get the filet tips. If looking for criticism, the menu is enormous and takes far too long to decide what to order. And the steak tips, don't order those.
Will continue to visit and speak highly of it to all who will listen.
Parking: It's a bit of a hairy intersection at that corner of 46, keep an eye out for people in the wrong lane coming in & out of the parking lot.

The host at the front is extremely rude and racist. Entered the restaurant, he looked up and saw me and did absolutely nothing. Went back to looking at his phone. Waited at the door for 5 minutes, another party entered and he immediately greets them with pleasantries. Never coming back here again lol.

Had lunch here, food was great and the service was great. Everyone was friendly! The only negative is one of the TVs had Newsmax playing so I wouldn't come back based on that alone

Had dinner with old coworkers. They were terrific and took great care of us for over 3 hours. Food was excellent and service was perfect. Highly recommended. Thank you William!
Came here with family while in Parsippany. Thought it’d be the regular red sauce fair of the likes of pizza and chicken parm. Boy was I wrong. We were blown away by the sheer quality of the food and service. For starters I had the fresh grilled calamari with a delightful tre colore salad. For my main I had the most excellent veal sorrentino done to perfection with tomatoes, eggplant and prosciutto. All the pasta is homemade. Escargot was legit and off the hook. Spaghetti with fresh clams. Banging good. Our waitress was a gem! A local favorite, this place is a must when Parsippany!
I hadn’t seen a friend in awhile and picked Eccolas to meet at 3:30 on Sunday to catch up with each other. The waitress was wonderful. The food was beautifully prepared and plated and tasted as good as it looked. The restaurant was fairly busy but we were able to enjoy our conversations and feel relaxed. Our cocktails were great too. I can’t wait to go again!
