IL Parmagiano Italian - LRR 

Another example of a great little retailer/restaurant. I remember being their first customer and delighted they have succeeded.Head Chef Mario and manager has plans for the rear garden and has gone ahead with his plans for a canopy on the small front entrance outside area, meaning they can now squeeze in more customers for the winter months.Head Waiter David also delightful. Excellent food, a regular for me and family. Trade seems good and they are doing 200 covers at weekends.

Couldn't agree more. Fantastic food, reasonably priced and lovely staff. Hope they do manage to extend into the garden. Would be great for them and the area. Take away service is superb. Normally 20 minutes which is perfect time for a pint at the Spencer.

Can only agree, fantastic food and lovely service.  I chatted to the guys building the front canopy yesterday and am glad that the place seems to be flourishing, they deserve it.

I am pleased you enjoy as well, Matthew and Bunny.

Did they get planning permission for that enclosed front area? I'm thinking about the problems the other Italian restaurant had next to the Butcher's on the other side of LRR. I love La Parmigiana and wouldn't want them to have difficulties like that.

Nick.  I think you must have been away at the time but I asked for advice re a traditional Christmas dinner in a quiet restaurant Didn't want laptops, phones or screaming kids.  (I like well behaved ones.)I think so far Hudsons appear to fit the bill but they don't have an online Christmas menu.Does Parmagiano have a Christmassy menu?  I have been a couple of times there.  Very tasty food, attentive friendly lovely staff,but Christmas was not on my mind at that point!.
