One of us ordered the wrong dish and the manager/owner replaced it very cordially and quickly. He was so nice and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant. ???“

“Unfortunately, we were seated next to a table with two screaming babies. That made it hard to appreciate any atmosphere there may have been. The food was disappointing this time although it’s been very good in the past. It was tasteless. Hope this was a fluke.“

I was extremely happy with how they handled the party and the food is always top notch. Wonderful place for parties or even just to go out for a dinner date. Highly recommended“

“The pan seared roasted chicken is amazing!!! My family and I found this place a few weeks ago. It's a beautifully decorated, clean and fairly new establishment with a very polite staff. My children have had the ravioli, the penne and the chicken fingers and each loved their meals. It's a hidden gem that we are happy to have found :)“

“The food was delicious. I had the watermelon salad and veal chop and tiramisu for dessert. The food was delicious and obviously I'm stuffed. The staff was attentive and nice. I felt like I was in a warm Italian family restaurant who enjoys serving wonderful food“

“Food is good. Service was a little slow due to there being only one server/bartender doing double duty. Went for a quick afternoon lunch. Sat outside which was nice. They have ample outdoor seating. Cocktails were not strong. So ended up sticking to wine for the balance of my drink orders.“

“We had a family party yesterday. We all can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Food was large portions and very delicious. Desserts incredible. Service was always there taking care of us.“

“Absolutely adore coming here. The service is attentive but not overbearing. The food is top notch with great selections. It’s a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion, or just to treat yourself. The manager Pure is friendly, and Gian who has been our waiter the last two times is wonderful. Top notch place.“

“I've ordered their Eggplant Rollatini and Chicken Parm tray for just about every party I host and it's always perfect! Plenty in the portions, they don't skimp on the chicken. It's always very neat in the tray which I appreciate!“

“We had Thanksgiving dinner here with my two boys. The service was absolutely outstanding. Our waitress was amazing . The food was beyond what I expected. Well done!!!! The portions were beyond believable and believe it or not the take home portions were just as amazing as they were when first brought out. More than 5 stars. Excellent evening and the price was ridiculously resendable. Great job to all the cooks and the people that don't get the recognition they deserve in the preparation of this fantastic meal.“

“We only came here because it was listed on BringFido, since we were traveling with our 20 pound Shiba Inu, Toby. What a wonderful experience that we had! The food was amazing! And we had just gotten back from the Amalfi coast in Italy. So that has to say something for this place! Jimmy, our server, was a doll and was so kind and brought things out for our dog, like water, etc. - very warm and welcoming place!!! of course we had to eat alfresco, and the traffic was a bit busy at that hour - so if it wasn’t for that noise, we would had an even greater time! But the excellent food and the excellent service more than made up for it! we will definitely be back with Toby!“

“My go to place for special occasions. Mike always makes us feel at home. Not only is the food fantastic, but the staff is helpful and kind. They even went out of their way to help my handicap mother get in and out of the car! Food is delicious and tons of variety when compared to the standard Italian restaurant. Great portions and even a decent amount of healthy options. Thank you to the staff for making my night even more special!“

“Absolutely the best! Treated us like family! Authentic as is it gets! 5 stars!“

“My wife and I really enjoyed the entire setting family style dinning. We both love eggplant very much the seasonings were not salty or spicy plenty of sauce stuffed with fresh ricotta cheese. All of what we could see were large entrees no fru fru at all. This is another local good place to dine in Floral Park.“

“Took a friend for a mid week birthday dinner. We shared pizza and a pasta. Both were excellent. The pizza had figs, smoked mozzarella, and was cooked in a brick oven. The dough was delicious, more on the softer side. Our pasta was homemade with 5 large shrimp and a lemon sauce, delicious. Highly recommended!“

“Words really cannot express what a perfect setting La Parma III Italian Restaurant was for our family.
I was trying to plan a luncheon to take place after a funeral remotely from San Diego, CA, and had nothing to go on other than a recommendation from the funeral home
I called and spoke to Guido on a Friday and the lunch was being planned for the upcoming Tuesday 8-27th a few days later.
Being in the catering business myself and immediately hearing "no problem" we can do it all, was simply music to my ears. Guido said he would not be in on that Sunday when I wanted to come check it out in person but gladly provided me with the Managers name that would be available that day to meet. When I arrived at the restaurant, I met Richie, and he could not have been more helpful in confirming everything that I had expected to happen.
Not only did they have us set up in a beautiful room with everything ready to go but both Guido and Richie were there during the lunch and worked the entire event in coordination with their amazing team. From the initial contact over the phone, all the way to the completion of the lunch we could not be happier with how professional and accommodating the people at La Parma III were, especially considering we had just lost our loved one. We would call them again for this or any other meal we needed to be catered. In summary, the food and service were five stars, A+, or whatever is the best grade possible!“

“Atlantic Pizzeria on Atlantic Ave in Freeport NY- It was my first time visiting this restaurant today and though I don’t normally write reviews, I felt compelled to state what a wonderful establishment! My daughter, who is very shy, spilled a drink in there and the workers replaced it immediately at no charge and cleaned it up right away! As a parent, this meant the world to me because I did not want her to feel uncomfortable.. thank you and we will be back! Please support!“

“An excellent family lunch. The food was, as usual, delicious and fresh. The server was friendly and efficient. It was quiet, a real treat for this restaurant that gets noisy at dinner time. Not one complaint about the delicious appetizers and main courses..our off season choice for great Italian food. Summer parking next to impossible!“

“Family place...always good...and very reasonable...like eating at momma's....Really a well kept secret by those who think food is more important than a perfectly lit room...must try....you will make friends there.“

“This has always been one of my favorite restaurants. And the price fix menu can't be beat. However, this time, as we were sitting and finishing our wine the waiter came over and rudely said that we were finished eating and he needed our table. We were so taken aback, we got up and left. I'm not sure that I will go back.“

“Order # 6760 on 7/14/22 was cooked to perfection. Order was ready when i arrived. It was excellent t!!!“

“Exciting menu, never a disappointment. Their Seafood festival is to die for.“

“Well well worth it! This hidden gem is located in the heart of kew garden near many local transportation! With ample parking and extremely welcoming staff, the restaurant was well worth the trip! The decor and atmosphere were amazing! Food was extremely delicious and fairly priced! They had a fun bar and a nice selection of cocktails and wines. The knowledge of the staff when it comes to drinks and different wines was top notch and very delicious! Overall, had an amazing dinner and experience.

Will absolutely return!“

“We had a last minute reservation for 8 people, and we were lucky enough to snag a table. YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE! Our entire table loved the food. From the appetizers (the warm bread, the amazing carmalized onion spread, & the Calamari), to the main courses (the NY strip steak, the shrimp, and the ravioli), to the dessert (trust me... get the bread pudding!) everything was impeccable. The service staff was also amazing, very attentive and kind. I will definitely be back!“

“Enjoyed the food, and Jackie was great! Chicken parmigiana was delicious!“

“Excellent Italian in a very competitive restaurant scence in Rockville Center. Been there for decades and it is a local gem. The food is awesome but I do not like that they do not give pasta with an entree but rather give mashed potatoes. Pasta can be ordered ala carte. A little silly if you ask me but those are the rules. They close promply at 9pm and last order taken is at 830pm so be aware of that. Excellent wine list. Amarone choices are great.“

“We were attending an event at Queens College and wanted to have a lunch/dinner afterwards, so we searched for restaurants nearby. There were many choices, but I was impressed by the website and menu for Piccolo Sogno. Following the event, joined by four friends, my wife and I made the short drive to the restaurant. It was a hot day, and at first we said we would like to dine inside. But the gracious host said we were welcome to check the outside seating first--and we're so glad we did! In the lovely, covered garden, we comfortably began a great feast! Piccolo Sogno has a nice selection of wines and beers as well as sparkling water. That was followed by delicious Calamari Fritti (done to perfection) and a Hot Antipasto Sampler with more calamari, baked clams, eggplant rolatini and amazing fried shrimp. We followed that with Pollo Alla Francese (some of the best I've ever had), Spaghetti Carbonara, Penne Vodka, and Insalata Dello Chef with chicken. These were served with generous side orders of Caesar salad or pasta. The service was friendly, courteous and at a pace that made for a wonderful afternoon. Even though we were extremely well-filled, we ordered dessert, and are so glad we did! The Limoncello Flute was one of the best desserts we've had, as was the Chocolate Mousse. Some iced expresso (wait until you see the special way it is layered!) and coffee would have been the end of a perfect meal, but then Chef Maurizio himself came out to spend some time at our table. After a nice conversation, he took this selfie shot of us all. As we left, the wonderful staff of the restaurant all greeted us and thanked us for coming. I can't remember the last time that happened in such a warm and spontaneous way. I could not more highly recommend a restaurant. We live in Manhattan and have our choice of some of the best restaurants anywhere--but actually, I look forward to returning to Piccolo Sogno!“
