Editorial Review for Parish Cafe – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
Parish Cafe's primary draw is its patio, which provides prime people-watching along upper Boylston Street. A relaxed crowd camps at the bar to enjoy an impressive list of beers and martinis. Straightforward starters are overshadowed by an assortment of signature sandwiches, all of which were designed by local chefs. Examples include Ana Sortun's "Oleana" (beer-battered mussels, hot peppers and Turkish tartar sauce) and Jasper White's "Summer Shack" (pan-fried haddock, homemade seafood salt and tomato remoulade).

Incredibly good sandwiches, but the surliest waitresses in Boston. I had the same experience as a previous reviewer -- I requested potato salad; I got coleslaw. When I politely asked for what I ordered, I got attitude. That said, the sandwiches are great, especially the Zuni Roll.
Pros: Sandwiches
Cons: Service, ugly waitstaff

Went on a weekday at about 2 pm. It seemed as if the hostess wait staff went out of their way to be extremely surly and rude, it was if they were doing me a favor by letting me eat there. I made a point to say twice no tomatoes on my sandwich as politely as possible, but of course my sandwich had tomatoes. When I asked to have it remade without tomatoes the waiter and kitchen looked at me as if was my fault. The food was decent, I had the meatloaf sandwich, the bread was over toasted but it was pretty good. The one decent waiter in the restaurant did make an effort to reconcile the fault by comping the sandwich.
Pros: intresting sandwiches
Cons: Service and attitude
