Blue Parrot.....world famous? I think not – I've lived in Colorado for almost 12 years now and have heard so many stories about the Blue Parrot so I thought I'd give it a try. Mistake. First off, the waitress was very nice, but the food was low grade microwaved swill. I ordered the chicken parmigiana and my wife the ravioli. The salad that came out first was a shameful excuse for a salad, tiny just some iceberg lettuce. Next, nearly 40 minutes later with our kids going nuts the whole time our meal arrived. The pasta wasn't e... read more

WORST Italian Meal Ever – Somewhere an Italian grandmother is turning over in her grave. How they can call that Italian - or food for that matter - is a mystery. Half way through my meal I was hoping Michael Corleone would come out of the bathroom with a .38 and finish me off. Oofah, was dreck! My chicken parm tasted like a deep fried Frisbee. Remember the scene from the Charlie Chaplin flick where he's starving and eats his shoe laces? I'm sure Charlie's laces tasted better than my spaghetti. My wife had the combo plater. C... read more

The WORST ever – We went there because our out of town guest wanted something close and fast and heard from the motel this is a good place to go. I will kill who ever told them to go there. The food was the worst ever. I think we will forever laugh about this place. Our guests were very upset too. Please, do not go there. The salad was crappy, pasta had no texture with unflavorful sauce. Our guests complained it looked like worms. Their ice cream is really cheap too.

So bad it's actually funny – We were laughing as we left - not that there was anything to enjoy, but only to shake of the horrible experience ranging from a dreary decor, bland food, and a dismal wait staff. When we first moved to Louisville, we were told that you would be hard pressed to find anyone who has not eaten at the Blue Parrot, and pressed harder to find anyone who had eaten there twice. Now I get it.

Skip This Restaurant!!! – Stumbled across this restaurant while looking for a place to eat on Main Street in Louisville. The fried zucchini was promising but the tomato sauce was terrible (flavorless). The meal went down from there. The salad was sterile (romaine, no fixings, and bottled dressings - not homemade). The renowned spaghetti sauce was flavorless and in need of seasoning. The interior is dingy with watermarks on the ceiling tiles. I wanted to like it because its family owned and because the service was friendly, b... read more

Yuck – Worst Italian food I have ever had. If you have been to Italy you would understand. Served Chianti that had a taste like watered-down grape juice. Noodles were thick and sauce was like eating Ragu. No spice, no garlic....I like to give local restaurants business but do not waste you money. YUCK

Great Food – Great food been going there for 30 years. I think the food was better before the place burned down. The salad they need to add onion and tomato's. You order a large you will take 1/2 of it home :).

what the Heck? – If you want to try this great food stick with the spagetti and sauce, try the link sausage to go with it. thats what this place is all about. If you are the yuppy type and expect the fancy frills, go for the take out and eat it at home. My wife son and myself stick to the spagetti and it always is great. The sauce was better before they bottled it for stores. This restaurant has come a long way from when u had to go to the kitchen door for your take out. For those who don't care for this great spagetti and s... read more

ick! – good prices, bad food, and poor service. We would NEVER eat there again. We ate 1/4 of the food, had it boxed up, and I brought our food home and seasoned it until it tasted decent again. I had to add some sauce, garlic, and basil to make it edible. I don't get why anyone would recommend this restaurant- store bought tomato sauce and pasta would taste ten times better!
