The Parlour, West Roxbury

Rather than an expansive menu with a mish-mash of food options, The Parlour zones in on two popular eats: pizza and meatballs. Red pies with pre-selected toppings include a shrimp pizza festooned with jumbo shrimp, chorizo, and pineapple-cilantro salsa; white pizza options include the potato pie with ham and Swiss cheese. Guests can also customize their own pies with more than 30 different toppings that range from classic green peppers to the more eclectic Bleu cheese and potatoes. Meatballs are found on top of pizza crusts, as a slider, in a grinder, or tossed in a bowl with pesto or spicy marinara sauce. In addition to its savory fare, The Parlour is outfitted with complimentary Wi-Fi, and a quartet of HD TVs that showcase popular sporting events, including hockey, football, and kick-the-can.
