Parisi has gone through many iterations in its 25 years, but one constant has been owner Christine Parisi’s passion for sharing Italian fare. The business originally opened in 1998 as a market and deli before moving to Tennyson Street and leaning into serving prepared foods, including fresh pastas and panini. While its fine-dining downstairs sibling, Firenze a Tavola, has remained closed since the pandemic, Parisi has continued to meet the neighborhood where it is, offering a fast-casual escape where the food is always comforting and made with care.
