OK, I realize everyone that loves this place grew up with it, as did I, but honestly... the noodles are thick and the sauce is not just ""watered down tomato paste"" it's famous throughout the state. Go to your local supermarket- you can find in a tiny corner of the sauce aisle, a bottle of Blue Parrot's homemade sauce. It's one of the only tiny family-owned restaurants that have their sauce at supermarkets statewide. There's proof that it's good. The noodles are thick and hearty and the meatballs are delicious! People are on here whining about not being able to get a decent salad... you don't go to Blue Parrot for the SALAD, my God! You go for the hearty delicious plate of spaghetti. If you want a stupid salad or some ambiance and fanciness then go to the Macaroni Grill, a mass-produced chain. If you want local tradition and a good, homecooked plate of traditional spaghetti, go to the Blue Parrot. Don't expect it to be fancy, it's a neighborhood family-owned restaurant in a small town. Which, in my book, makes it all the more better.
Pros: the food, the food, the food, the food
Cons: if you take it for what it is, there arent any cons
