    We had a wonderful experience at Parc the whole time we were there. The steaks cooked on the wood grill were great, and we loved the charred burrata! The service was great, the atmosphere is really nice, and the location is awesome. Highly recommend!

    I had a great experience at Parc! The service was attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in. Our server made sure we were well taken care of the entire time. The food was just as impressive — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The charred burrata was very good and the New York strip was cooked to perfection. The manager Billy was so attentive to us and it every other table, making sure we were pleased with everything. Couldn’t leave there without leaving This review! Whether you’re stopping in for brunch or dinner, Parc really delivers on both quality and atmosphere. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a spot with great service and even better food!

    Where do I start? I dined here yesterday and it exceeded my expectations! If you need a sign to try Parc, look no further. The steak was so amazing, so juicy and flavorful. Brussels sprouts? Wow I didn’t even know I liked Brussels sprouts until I tried them here. Service was impeccable from the moment we walked in the doors and the manager Billy made sure we had a pleasant dining experience. Music was great and I love the atmosphere. Can’t wait to be back here all summer! 10/10!

    I will likely not be dining at Parc again after tonight. I expected much more out of a supposedly fine dining “experience” and was sadly disappointed. The restaurant itself and its location are beautiful. Noise was moderate throughout the night and the scenery was very nice. However, the service was somewhat lacking and the food was pretty poor given the price point. My party ordered salads which came missing ingredients and little to no dressing. We also ordered the salmon which had a delicious sauce but was overcooked and bland otherwise. For over $100 per guest, I expected much higher quality dishes. Overall, I would like dining at Parc for a much lower price point, but where it is now I would not consider it worth the money. Perhaps the brunch or lunch would be a better choice.

    Yikes- where do I begin. I’d like to start by saying that this restaurant has previously received a 5 star review from me. I was very excited to take my fiancé there for his birthday, unfortunately, it did not live up to its past status. First off, we were seated over 20 minutes past our reservation time, things happen, no big deal we move on. The restaurant was so loud, it was like being at a bar on a sports night. Place was humid, I understand the open doors open windows concept, but you still need ventilation. The bathrooms were horrid .Definitely no longer a place to celebrate intimate occasions or have a romantic date. The service was OK, not what I am normally accustomed to from places that consider themselves fine dining. The food was the worst of it, I don’t know if the chef was having an off night or if they have a new chef, but it was subpar, putting it nicely. None of the food was seasoned, everything tasted bland, simple salting would have gone a long way. For appetizers , got the charred Burrata, it was ok. the shrimp ceviche was not shrimp ceviche, just like the Mexican street corn was not Mexican street corn , they added some cocktail shrimps to a salad served with the greasiest tostadas I’ve ever tasted. The chopped salad was missing half its advertised ingredients ( no pickled cauliflower, no almond, no breadcrumbs) We got the short ribs and New York steak for entrees, again, no seasoning, braised rib tasted like boiled meat, the mashed potatoes tasted two days old and the chard broccolini was cooked to its last breath. The New York strip tasted frozen and improperly thawed, again no seasoning, asked for medium well, got different temps in different parts of the steak and don’t get me started on the sides. The only redeeming thing was the piece of birthday cake the waiter brought out on the house, it wasn’t good but a nice gesture. I asked for a dessert menu and was told they didn’t have anything else today. For 150/person, I don’t think so.

    Food was good as always but was very disappointed in the Street Corn Gratin - it tasted like it was frozen/canned corn with slight seasoning to it. Service was below average as I sat on empty for at least 5-10 minutes before getting a refill. Otherwise, I always love the atmosphere of Parc and the short rib is always a great meal.
    ParcResponded on May 12, 2025
    Blake, thank you for your visit to Parc and your feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed the overall atmosphere and meal, particularly our signature short rib dish. However, we regret that the Street Corn Gratin and service did not meet your expectations. Your comments have been noted, and we will work to improve in those areas. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
