La Parmigiana

27 June 2010

I had no idea where we were going but was starving and looking forward to a good meal. I was surprised when I walked in that there was a side dining room as well as a back patio. We were seated at the corner back table – there were two heaters in the room but of course I was in the coldest corner (I usually can tolerate cold, but not that night…) They didn’t have diet coke – only diet pepsi. They had 6 chairs but not 6 sets of utensils/dishes/menus on the table.

Our waiter seemed nice but that didn’t last long. I shared a side of broccoli with garlic and oil which was really tasty but a bit too greasy. Then I shared the eggplant parm that came with a side of spaghetti (I substituted with angel hair) and a salad (I substituted for a caeser salad). The salad was overloaded with croutons but otherwise good. The angel hair was doused in marina sauce – honestly more sauce than pasta. The eggplant parm was just not good. Too thick, too saucy, too cheesy and overcooked and mushy. I was completely unsatisfied considering I barely ate all day and was really looking forward to this meal.

The waiter forgot to put in one of the orders of food and stumbled on his words when we asked what happened. He really didn’t know what to say and refused to fess up. The food came out and was THE largest portion of pasta I’ve ever seen. The whole meal was like family style subpar food plopped on plates that was overpriced, well, because we’re in the Hamptons so of course they can jack up their prices. NEVER again.

La Parmigiana Italian Restaurant
Southampton, not worth knowing the address.
