Let me start by saying that I really enjoy the Parasson's in Barberton and we used to frequent the one in Canton when it was there. Since we haven't seen another Parasson's in ages, we wanted to try it. Folks, it's just not good.
When you walk in the door, you're greeted with dirt and the doors and walls that need painted. The smell when you walk in the second door is enough to make your stomach churn. As you look around, you notice all of the dirt in the corners and bottom of the walls/furnishings. The room straight ahead was filled with about 5 different employees just sitting there waiting for something to do. It looked like an employee breakroom and does not give a good impression.
We ordered and was served by a nice server, and the service was very good. The food was another story. I just ordered a pizza, which was adequate, nothing worth paying for (I did, don't think I'm one of those people that complain about the food just to get something free). The other diner with me ordered the spaghetti and she couldn't even eat most of it. I tried it and understood why. The sauce tasted like it came from a Chef Boyardee can. It was nothing like the sauce we are used to from the Parasson's in Barberton.
I mentioned to the manager that the employee breakroom look did not make a good impression and he just said ok. Not that I was looking for any apology or anything, but I'm not sure he could/would even consider changing it.
