    Paragary's does an excellent brunch. I like to go early (10:00 or 10:30 am) and enjoy the atmosphere before the main brunch bunch arrives at 11:00. David, our server, greeted us warmly and made suggestions upon request. He checked on us throughout the meal and kept our coffee cups full. Today, my friend and I each had the smoked salmon on toast. The house rye bread was very good, and plenty of cream cheese and other bits made it very special. We sat by the window, looking into the patio area, which still had a big Christmas Tree. It was a lovely spot to enjoy a final holiday weekend meal.

    Wonderful time… didn’t feel rushed .. It was busy…. And the waiter asked for our Happy hour Menu….( we did want to order more) but the restaurant was “short of those” and so of course we gave it up…. So, then later we had to ask for the menu…. Otherwise…. All was good

    Delicious food, impressive covered outdoor area that’s well-insulated and thoughtfully designed (it feels like you’re inside the restaurant and we preferred it over the actual indoor area), and friendly and knowledgeable service! Portions are small and prices are high, but it was great quality and worthwhile overall. Highly recommend for a special occasion or date night!
