About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Neighborhood gem
Stephen Starr's stylish addition to Rittenhouse Square pays tribute to French cafe culture, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, ideal for a quick bite or a leisurely meal. Parc recalls the chic brasseries of Paris, serving classic French fare in a charming space. Red leather banquettes topped with frosted glass provide a sense of intimacy. Details such as well-worn wooden chairs, vintage framed paintings and photos and antique brass fixtures transport guests across the Atlantic. French doors spill onto a sidewalk terrace covered by a dark red awning perfect for dining "en plein air."

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Matt Hagar

From the OpenTable editors: Travel to Belle Epoque Paris at this beloved Rittenhouse Square French bistro from famed restaurateur Stephen Starr. You'll find all the regular charming markers: globe lights, cozy red-leather booths, and windows that look out on the street. The next-level bistro fare like onion soup gratinée and steak frites along with a glass from the comprehensive wine list will make you want to linger.

    The overall experience was very enjoyable. The staff seemed genuinely friendly and attentive. The cozy pastry basket and fresh bread were especially delicious. The food was excellent, and the service was top-notch. Perhaps the rainy weather contributed to a more focused and personalized service, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

    I love this place- the service, the setting and of course the food. The breakfast service is such a gift to the square — there are so few places with a classic breakfast that have the consistency I crave. Of course, most any time we come the food is always on point and service is stellar.

    A very pleasant dining experience in a busy establishment. Not as expensive as you'd think and the portions are more than adequate. Excellent drinks list.

    Stephen Starr never disappoints. Quality food at reasonable prices. Service could be better, which is lacking and could be improved at all his restaurants.

    A wonderful experience, as always. I had the pea soup which was fresh and delicious and the quiche lorriane. My guest had the hamburger and gave it a thumbs-up. The service was slower than usual but slower Parc service is still lightyears faster than the average restaurant.
