Simple, art-lined local mainstay serving Neapolitan pies & traditional Italian dishes with wines.
La Parolaccia has been a family owned business since 2006. We are from Rome Italy and hope to bring some of our homestyle Italian cooking to you. La Parolaccia offers a relaxed and intimate atmosphere where everyone is treated like family and enjoys delicious pizza, pasta and wine.
La Parolaccia in Italian means the bad word. In Italy an osteria is a down to earth establishment where friends and family gather to enjoy great food and occasionally let out a parolaccia. We hope our home away from home becomes a place where you form great memories around great food.
Ci vediamo presto!
We accept reservations for parties of 3 or more only. Reservations can be made only by calling the restaurant during business hours.
