Pasticceria Santa Cristina In Parma

25/11/2025: Invited by friends, we came for an aperitif. I'll start by saying that the wait staff was incredibly kind, but the wait to get in (standing in the cold) was exhausting. The food didn't seem all that great, and the aperitif stations are really small, jostling for space with neighboring tables. Solution? I'd suggest mandatory reservations with a specific time so everyone knows they have to leave within the allotted time. Thanks.

19/11/2025: I think it's a choice, to deliberately make people wait several half hours between ordering and being served, even for a coffee or the menu before ordering a dessert. I found it very annoying. I'm not saying you have to be quick, but 1 hour and 50 minutes for a pizza, coffee, and dessert, on a Thursday lunchtime off-peak, seemed excessive to me.
