  Book with Parizade - you won't regret it!

  Although we did not use Parizade as a venue, we did use them to cater our 150-person wedding in Durham and were so happy with the food and our experience!
  
  We worked with Jennifer during the process to plan the menu. She was extremely responsive, transparent, and very flexible to any plans we wanted. Since the wedding, we have received endless compliments about how good the food was (passed appetizers during cocktail hour, buffet during dinner).
  
  Overall, the food was incredible and the service was professional. We were in great hands. I can't recommend Parizade enough for a wedding!

  Great Place to Have A Wedding Reception

  If you would like to “shake” things up and have a wedding reception at a restaurant, this is the place! They were so accommodating and responded in a timely manner when the wedding planner and I had (many) questions. All of our wedding guests loved the restaurant and the decorations the wedding planner and I picked went nicely with their decor.

  The whole process of arranging a luncheon was made so simple by having preprinted menus. All costs were presented from first contact. All questions were answered promptly. I would gladly come back to Parizade for another event.

  Parizade is Awesome! The staff was great! They even opened the restaurant to accommodate my party on memorial day(they were scheduled to bbe closed). The food was amazing! The decor is very elegant. I would recommend this place to anyone hosting a small(60 or less) gathering.

  We had our Rehearsal dinner here and it was wonderful. Although the rain kept it from being outside they did a great job of bringing it inside. Dinner was delicious!

  It's a beautiful place to have a outside wedding and reception. The set up they put together for my food and cake was amazing. My wedding was outside and I didn't have to decorate to much because it is already so beautiful.

  From the time of our initial tasting for menu selection, we were very excited about the food and service Parizade provided. They were also great with helping us select a well rounded selection for the bar. At the wedding, we got many compliments about the food and those compliments have continued well past the wedding. Our guests were very impressed and well fed! In addition to catering our wedding, we also held our rehearsal dinner at Parizade, which was another amazing experience. It was a great venue in one of their private rooms, fantastic food, and wonderful service.

  Parizade was amazing! Not only was the food amazing, but the portions that we were served at our tasting were exactly what our guests received. Their staff was on top of everything, and each course transitioned seamlessly into the next. The wine was always flowing, and the server for the kids table even tried on the fairy wings and boas for the girls! A+ service and value... we had the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dancing all outside on their beautiful open air courtyard and had our sit-down dinner inside the restaurant itself. I can't say enough about these guys... truly professional.

  I can't say enough good things about having our wedding reception at Parizade. We rented their large, private room which had its own stand-alone bar, an area for dancing, and enough seating for our 35 guests for dinner. We were assigned our own waiter and bartender for the night, which worked out great. We also had the use of the room's built-in stereo system and projector, which allowed us to save on paying for a DJ and to put up a fun slide show during dinner.
  
  The staff was fantastic and responsive. We had a lot of flexibility in picking out the menu and were even treated to a tasting session ahead of time to try out some of the wines and food we picked out. We were honestly treated like royalty here!
  
  I highly recommend Parizade for a reception for a small wedding. Even if you're not planning to do your reception there - go for dinner some time! The food is wonderful!

  Beautiful space, delicious food, professional service!

  We chose Parizade after having dinner there to scope it out. We were impressed with the restaurant’s appearance, the food (everything we had was excellent), and the professional and friendly service. We thought their courtyard space was lovely and would do perfectly for our wedding.
  
  The courtyard is shady, pretty, and plenty big enough to accommodate a wedding with over 100 guests, or in our case, 10 or so. Yep, we got married during the pandemic, which of course we didn’t plan for. We didn’t want to move our date back, so we scaled down from 60 guests to 10, ditched the band for a solo cellist, and had a beautiful “mini wedding” lived streamed for those who couldn’t come, with a 3 course plated dinner following.
  
  The food was delicious, the service was very attentive and professional, and they worked with us during a pandemic! You really can’t beat that. Plus you get the venue and food/drink in the same vendor so it's like a 3 for 1 choosing a restaurant. Compared to other similar quality (or even lower quaality) venues in Durham, Parizade is a great value. Even before we downsized, we were very happy with what we were paying.
  
  There were some touch-and-go moments with the lines of communication between us/our planner and the Parizade event contact, but we felt it was understandable. They had been closed for a bit because of the coronavirus and it was a very difficult and unusual situation all around. It all worked out in the end!
  
  The pictures I have are from the courtyard only, because we didn’t use the indoor conference room at all, but we did have it reserved for a rainy day. It would work well for dinner if you needed it!
  
  I can highly recommend Parizade!

  Parizade was a great venue for our wedding reception, and the food was amazing! We were originally scheduled to have most of the reception in the courtyard, but when it rained, everything was moved and beautifully organized in the private back room. They offered a very generous tasting session in advance of the wedding date, and great service during the reception. Our only slight disappointment was that the food served on our buffet was not exactly the items we'd chosen (although it was all still delicious).
  
  Parizade's pastry chef, Lou, also did our wedding cake. It was absolutely gorgeous and tasted great!
