Was Pamela Burkett at Parente's a mag?
The fish and chips were absolutely delicious! The cod was cooked to perfection, and the batter was just right—not too thick. The service was outstanding as well. View all feedback.
What Hazel Lapre dislikes about Parente's:
The steamers had an unpleasant odor. The side salad consisted of just a few pieces of lettuce and onion. The prime rib was mostly fat, making it inedible. We’ve always loved this place and have recommended it in the past, but we're not sure what went wrong this time. View all feedback.
The baked scrod was very good, with a generous portion served alongside two sides—steamed broccoli and fries. One diner cleaned her plate and expressed her satisfaction. The chicken piccata also received positive feedback. Another diner ordered it with linguine and garlic bread, and it was generously topped with capers. I opted for the chicken parmigiana with linguine and started with a cup of chicken soup, which was quite nice. However, the chicken parmigiana was disappointing. Instead of the linguine I ordered, I received penne, but by that point, I didn't feel like sending it back. The chicken was dry, the breading was largely burnt and fell off, and the sauce was lacking flavor, rendering the dish nearly inedible. Since we were celebrating my sister's birthday, I chose to hold back my complaints, but honestly, it was not a great meal. I wish the restaurant all the best, but we won’t be returning.

Fantastic deal on the baked stuffed shrimp for $18-20. It comes with two sides and is absolutely delicious!
