Food options are great as well as price - unfortunately, there was a noisy toddler in one of the dining areas which was distracting.

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.

We live nearby and used to dine there often. But a new chef had changed the menu a couple years ago and we did not enjoy it. We decided to try it again this week and it was wonderful! Both the food and service were excellent. The mushroom salad was back, though a bit different, and was delicious. We will be back often!
