As always, Paragary’s was excellent in every way. We sat outside and enjoyed an ideal ambience together with creative, delicious food and impeccable service. It was Father’s Day with a full house and a set menu; many restaurants would be chaotic under those circumstances, but they handled everything perfectly.
