Bring a pot of well salted water to a boil; add the linguine; cook for 2 minutes less than the package instructions, about 8 minutes. Reserve 1/4 c. pasta cooking water; drain. Set pasta and pasta water aside.
While the pasta is cooking, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add the mushrooms and garlic; cook until the mushrooms have browned, about 3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
Add the cream and Parmesan cheese; bring to a simmer. Add the pasta and the reserved pasta cooking water; toss together, allowing the sauce to thicken, about 2 minutes. Season with the pepper; toss.
Serve garnished with fresh parsley and more Parmesan cheese.
4-6 servings.
