Ice Cream Cake
Recommended by Max Falkowitz and 9 other food critics.
"We love just about everything at Parm, but their towering ice cream cake leaves a special impression. It's basically the Carvel cake of your dreams: three ice cream layers, rich chocolate cookie crumbles in between, and sprinkles with a candy-red cherry on top."

Baked Ziti
Recommended by Pete Wells and 7 other food critics.
"Recall those chefs and food writers telling us that pasta is its own course, not a side dish, when you’re enjoying a springy cube of baked ziti with your chicken francese at Parm."

"At first, the sandwich exhibits nothing out of the ordinary. The tomato sauce, simple and summery, just seems to have been made by a good cook. The mozzarella and torn leaves of basil are fresh.The meat is juicy and rosy pink on the inside, the color of a perfectly cooked pork chop. It is completely faithful to your memories while being much, much better than you remembered."
"The mozza sticks are crack. Try to eat them right away, while they’re still hot stuffed with melted cheese."

on Baked Ziti
"Order the chicken parm on a hero roll, the chicken parm is crispy, juicy and tender, smothered with fresh mozzarella and an amazing tomato sauce all sandwiched between a sliced fluffy homemade hero roll topped with sesame seeds."
"Two juicy fried cutlets were slathered with tomato sauce and smothered in melted mozzarella cheese. Chicken parm at Parm is pretty outstanding."
"Their humble turkey sandwich has been praised by many as the city’s best, meatballs are brilliantly in patty instead of ball form, and the chicken Parm sandwich is, hands down, the best in the country."
"While the loosely-packed meatball made from veal, beef, and sweet Italian sausage was very tasty, especially with the gooey mozzarella, it was the fresh basil that made this sandwich highly memorable."
"Evoking old-school Little Italy joints, Mario Carbone and Rich Torrisi’s Parm serves the best meatball parm: juicy, meaty, saucy and cheesy."
