A holiday weekend is a good time for a soft opening, it seems. The Parlor quietly opened its doors a few nights ago, and incredibly, I’ve already talked to a few friends who’ve been there. People must be hungry for this stuff.
Word is, the food is straightforward and pretty tasty, and owner Aric Mei’s renovation of the former beauty parlor is impressive.
