   The bouillabaisse was excellent. The lobster bisque was also very good. Tuna was cooked beautifully. Drinks and cocktails were done perfectly. Best restaurant in Sioux falls.

   Great place. I only marked it down just a bit because when I go out to a nice dinner I like it quiet. We sat across from the kitchen but I'm sure if we had sat in the back or front it would have been quieter, but the food was worth it and I highly recommend the lavender martini

   We’ve been here before and forgot how they have a VERY limited variety of vodka. :( Also, their menu changed, which happens - we get it. But one item was still on the menu and they “changed it, making it bigger” - meat & cheese appetizer. The one we got a few months ago was amazing, had a ton of variety and had so much. There were 3 of us, and I think there were 6 crackers and 3 wafers. This one definitely wasn’t “bigger”. This appetizer needs to be reimagined again. The filet was amazing. The cauliflower needed something extra - some kind of seasoning. It was pretty cold when we went and we were seated in the front area of the restaurant, across from our he food pickup. When the outside door opened, there was always a blast of cold air. There are curtains attempting to redirect the air, but more could be done for these kind of evenings. One note; the Website - their header words (Home, Gift Cards, Menu Blog) are VERY hard to see due to the background image. Overall, it was a nice evening, wish it had a little umph. :)

    Had the scallops cooked nicely. Remodel looks great. Friendly staff. After eating at 43 different Michelin star rated restaurants it’s harder to get blown away by food.. I am sure 5 years ago I would have given the food 5 stars and been blown away

    We were disappointed that they didn't have their regular menu. There were about six items on it. Four were fish, and two were meats. There was a vegetarian item on it, too. We only stayed for a drink. They were good.

    Overall this was a good experience. I would recommend and try it again! Unfortunately I was unimpressed with how it ended. It seemed like once the tables around us left so did our server. Pretty sure we were the last ones for that section. Then we stopped getting checked on, we then had to wait another extended amount of time for her to even realize we were done eating with the final course, and to top it off she never did bring back the food we asked to be boxed up either. Again, still enjoyed the night though. The food was amazing!

    Parker's BistroResponded on March 1, 2023Shay - I am so sorry to hear that your experience ended poorly and I thank you so kindly for your patience with us as our team adapted to dinner service in a brand new form and function. LOVE that you enjoyed your meal. We truly hope that you'll consider us again and look forward to making the service up to you next time.

    This was for the pop-up 5-course Mexican menu at the Icon. I think that this was my favorite ever dining experience in Sioux Falls! I hope they do more events like this in the future. Everything was absolutely delicious. The courses came out at a good interval. Our service was wonderful. I also can’t believe how reasonably it was priced!

    Parker's BistroResponded on March 1, 2023Thank you so much for joining us in this unique experience! We look forward to your return, Megan.

    Haven’t been to Parker’s in awhile. It didn’t disappoint. Service (as usual) was excellent. Ambiance and setting is intimate and cozy. We were fortunate to get a table for two by the front window. Wine selection is very good with broad selection. I ordered the filet medium rare. It was cooked to perfection And pleasantly presented. Highly recommend going here.

    Parker's BistroResponded on February 1, 2023Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to review us, Jason. We are thrilled you enjoyed your experience and are so grateful for your kind words! Until next time - Cheers!

    We met some friends for a couple of drinks/beers/apps before the Parade of Lights. The hostess was very friendly and helpful! Our waiter was just okay. He was friendly but a bit stuck up. He was also not very well informed on the beer choices. He knew where the beers were from, but he didn't know the names of them. We had to ask him twice to find out the names, which he did but with a snarl. Other than that, the drinks were good. We will be back to have a meal next time!

    We have read the high ratings of Parkers. We enjoy these small,quaint, highly rated local restsurants. All said it was extremely disappointing. We both ordered Halibut, glass of wine, and one apple crisp dessert. The total bill, with tip was $144. For an outstanding evening and dinner would have been pricey but acceptable. The problem was both halibut filets were dry, tough, and overcooked. in addition the long grain rice was also dry, clumped and no flavor(Minute maid like). The apple crisp was amazing. Based upon our experience do not order the halibut. Last night Parkers did not match the expecatations or ratings contained in Open Table, Yelp or Trip Advisor. Be selective here and cautious.
