Should you try? Yes, a good lunch option in Midtown East.
Midtown East lacks good food options, but if you’re looking for a good chicken parm hero, check out LA Bellezza. Their chicken parm hero ($8) is large and you’ll be in a food coma if you eat the whole thing in one sitting. The bread is soft and doughy in the middle and has a nice crunchy crust. The sub includes several pieces of chicken and they stuff it with so much mozzarella it oozes out while you’re eating. It’s a good option for a large tasty sub in an area full of overpriced delis.
how’s the eggplant parm?
