This is the restaurant I go to every year for my birthday with my kids and husband. Everything is amazing wine, starters, entrees, coffee, down to deserts. You can't miss. Make sure to call ahead of time for reservations. They also have a second floor which gives 80's scarface mafia vibes by how the room is decorated. I love it! My favorite italiana restaurant.

Here for the pork chop. Staff is friendly. Going to try the broiled pork chop next time!!

Incredible as always. Never a time I've gone to Parkside and not enjoyed the food and service.

Park Side is a classic! One of the best Italian spots in NYC, hands down. The food is always on point--amazing sauces and the best bread basket with prosciutto and olive bread. Alfredo, the Maitre' D, is a gem and makes you feel like a star. This time we had the octopus (so tender), Mozzarella in Carrozza, and Caesar salad to start. Everything was delicious! For pasta, the Linguine Carbonara is a must-try. For mains, the Veal Spiedini is my fave--flavor explosion! Highly recommend if you want an unforgettable meal.

Food was delicious and it was old school traditional italian food. However, the hostess seemed unfriendly and did not ask to seat us which was a turnoff. She also had jeans on which is inappropriate in an upscale restaurant, even if she's family. However the other staff was attentative and valet parking is free! So its still on my best restaurant of Queens list. Definitely make reservations for Marilyn Monroe room is gorgeous. A long staircase and no elevator and bathroom in basement, not good for handicap or elderly.

Parkside in a few words: consistent great food, great vibes, legendary spot in Queens. been coming here for decades and will continue to do so. Excellent place

Had a reservation for 8pm on a weekday, the restaurant was super packed and lively. The food was really good, huge portions and super filling. The server was attentive despite it being packed and waters kept being refilled every other minute, I appreciate that. Overall, really nice spot for a date night or a family dinner. Bathroom is downstairs for anyone looking for it!

The best restaurant. Period. That's it that's the review. I love it here. Been coming my whole life.

Amazing Italian restaurant! I sat down and they brought a free little plate of salami and cheese and tomato on toast, such a nice little treat. They also brought a massive bread basket so you know you're not going to leave hungry. I got the veal piccata with pasta. The veal was great and the pasta was fantastic. The marinara sauce was the perfect balance of light and flavorful. It doesn't look like much but it's probably one of my best marinara I've ever had. For dessert I got a chocolate truffle cake. It was super chocolately and yummy. Not the best cake but still pretty good. Wish this was closer to Manhattan but if I come back to Queens I'm coming here again!

Experiencing Park Side was such a treat. We had our couples dinner here a few weeks back and the food, service, ambiance and overall experience was just incredible. Our friend had made reservations weeks in advance and when we arrived we were seated on a corner are which was private and very comfortable for our dinner. We started off quicky with a few bottles of Caymus red wine and o course they brought over a basket full of delicious breads. We then ordered a few appetizers family style such as the Stuffed Mushrooms, Oysters & Fried Calamari. Oh and of course a Classic Caesar Salad to keep it healthy haha. For dinner we had a few dishes at the table all which were wonderfully prepared and full of flavor and fresh. We had the Fettuccine Alfredo Cream, Butter, Parmigiana & Imported Mascarpone Cheese, Filet Mignon with side of mashed potatoes, & Sauteed Filet of Gray Sole Meuniere White Wine, Lemon & Capers. Lets just say everyone was very happy and full from the delicious food. After dinner it was very sweet of the staff to bring out a dessert plate to celebrate a special occasion at our table. If your in the area or just want some authentic italian food this is the place to go for that, not Carbone, haha.
