Exceptional value, fast food level price but private cafe atmosphere, portion & quality. We had a sausage breakfast sandwich, & a grilled cheese with drinks. I felt compelled to leave a review. Delicious 👌 $11 each

Italian cafe & sandwiches with cute staff. What else could you need?
TLDR: espresso great, matcha best I've had (!!!), sandwiches very good, had a classic tomato pesto style BANGER.

I ordered a flat white which was made small like a macchiato 🤌🏼 It was nice & strong & the espresso was smooth. Well made.
My friend ordered a matcha latte. God damn. those who seek the green dust- look no further.
I kept thieving sips of the best matcha latte I have ever had.
Often matcha lattes (& all lattes for that matter) are a time-consuming excuse not to steam milk smoothly (under or over), or mix the powder like it's a bowl of your morning oats. But this was not just some powder + liquid, this was a consistent drink.
The matcha itself was not sandy, grainy, muddy, earthy, bitter, or any other descriptor you non-matcha drinkers might use to describe it.
Anyways just frickin try it.
The sandwich, a monthly special on the menu, was a delectable way to bring joy to ma bouche. Toasted, bread not to thick, greasy, with a perfect distribution of cheese, tomato, pesto, & whatever else was on this bad boy… I simply regret not going back for seconds before close.
I evaluated my hunger to gauge if it would influence my review… & after careful consideration I believe that in fact I just like this place.

Nice coffeeshop, I went there today around 8am to take my breakfast & coffee, before I go to work. bagel cream cheese was very fresh & nice, coffee was also great. My uber was arriving in 2 min & didn't have my bagel cream cheese yet, so I told the person who was in charge of coffee preparation & she helped me to get my bagel cream cheese on time before my uber arrives.

We happened on Parma Cafe by chance, on our way to another cafe, & decided to come back the next day. I have to say, i'm happy we did come back for breakfast because not only was the decor & ambiance quaint, but had what I can honestly say was the best grilled cheese i've had in a very long time. We came back later in the day for the cannolis & some pasta bolognese to take home, & they were both sooo good too. Cannot recommend this place enough.
