    Park Café is a neighborhood gem. We visit often and always enjoy our meal and the service. if you are from out of town or live in Nashville, but I’ve never tried it I highly recommend. The trout was fantastic, and the martinis are strong.

    This was a great experience for our wedding anniversary celebration. The food was fabulous. I had the pork, and my wife had the salmon. Dessert was great too. We ate outdoors on the patio and the weather was very pleasant. Waiter and hostess were very nice and professional. Highly recommended. We will definitely return.

    Really cool space away from the Downtown madness. Inside and outside tables with viby patio. Nice to have Valet and not pay the Broadway parking fee, for a great dining experience. Fun Tapas and also the salmon and large plates were amazing. Not a huge fan of the radish and avocado bruschetta, it needs something to pop the flavors or maybe not radishes, but everything else was really tasty. Our waitress, Amanda was really cool as well. We will go again. Make a reservation, it's a hot spot!

    We had a great table upstairs in the back, so there was little noise or movement around our table. All the food we had was excellent and our server was fantastic. The Prices compared to newer trendy spots in downtown Nashville are way better. It’s great to have a long standing restaurant still doing well and serving great food.

    The New York Steak was not an exceptional cut of beef, full of grizzle & fat. Everything else was good. The pork chop was very good as well as the apple crisp. Happy Hour drinks were a real bargain.

    Park cafe is our favorite spot in Nashville now! The food and service is always consistently superb. From the front of house to the table runners, the restaurant staff is always pleasant and eager to please. I love the fact that this restaurant has its standard menu, but also offers great everyday specials. Our servers are always excellent, and tonight Josh was another addition to that list.

    I can see why it’s been a Nashville staple for so long. We hadn’t been there for a while but you’d never know bc everyone was so friendly when we walked in that it felt like we were all old friends. The food, drinks and vibe were amazing. We will absolutely be returning there again very soon!

    Still one of my favorite restaurants in Nashville. Everything here is good. I love their pork, lamb, or beef, and it's fun to sometimes make a meal of sides and small plates. One of the few great restaurants in Nashville that's not "Southern inspired", which--to me--is a good thing. Some great fusion with Asian flavors.
