The restaurant is an attraction in itself. We were transported to a quaint Italian villa in the heart of Quebec City. The servers were so friendly & we enjoyed talking with them. The Margherita pizza was loaded with cheese & the crust was prepared just right. Lemoncello was a great way to transition to the lovely lemon blueberry cheesecake.

Portion size very little. They give you some bread (was not fresh) with some butter while you wait for your order. Not really worth the wait in the queue & pricing.

On arrive de 6 semaines en Italie & on a rarement aussi bien mangé qu'au Parmesan ! Les escalopes de veau sont absolument formidables. A ne pas manquer !

J'vas vous dire de quoi ben franchement: le restaurant Le Parmesan, ça sent pas ben bon. Dès que tu passes l'pas d'la porte, ça te pogne par les narines comme un coup d'batte de baseball. Y'a une odeur qui flotte là-dedans, un mélange de vieux fromage, d'ail pis de sueur. C't'un choc, comme si t'entrais dans une vieille cave humide remplie de fromages moisis. Premièrement, y'a l'odeur d'parmesan. On sait tous que le parmesan, c'est fort, mais au restaurant Le Parmesan, c't'encore pire. Ça flotte dans l'air, ça s'infiltre dans tes vêtements, pis ça te suit partout après que t'es sorti. T'as beau aimer le parmesan, t'es jamais prêt pour une telle agression olfactive. En plus, y'a l'côté cuisine. T'as l'impression qu'ils ventilent rien. L'air est lourd, chargé d'vapeurs de cuisson qui sont imprégnées de toutes les saveurs les plus fortes que tu peux imaginer. Le mélange d'odeurs de sauces tomates trop cuites, de viandes en train de griller pis de toutes sortes d'herbes, c'est ben trop pour les narines sensibles
