    We went for a date night, but we’re sat facing a family with young kids. The waiter was not very attentive as he was covering several tables including noisy family. We had a couple of big errors in our meal (no bacon on husbands burger or fries with my sandwich), but they were fixed when we asked. Food was overall pretty good, but wasn’t very special. Dessert options were super underwhelming as 2/3 were cheesecake and husband doesn’t do cheese. We had hoped for a yummy kid free meal/date night. It was fine, but not all we hoped

    The service was awful. There was a large table that seemed to have backed up the kitchen but our server did not check in with us very much or set expectations that things would be delayed. Took forever to order, get drinks, and our food took at least an hour to appear after ordering. Server disappeared for at least a half an hour and seemed to be avoiding the table. Never was apologetic for the delays and seemed annoyed at the large table but that wasn’t even her table. They were also out of clean cups and the portion sizes for the sandwiches and burgers were small, that hadn’t been an issue here in the past. Several people in our party did not like their food. I’d been here several times before and always experienced decent service and good food. Idk what happened, Park just dropped the ball on everything this visit. Not great as we went for a friend’s birthday. It was her first time here and this left a poor impression and killed the birthday mood.

    We love the convenience and ambience of The Park and the fact that we can make a reservation. Having a friend with limited mobility issues it’s fantastic to know we don’t have to wait with no seating. Food is fresh with such a fantastic infusion of flavor. Would love to see more seasonal protein entrees.

    Went last night for my birthday. Waitress only came to our table once besides bringing our appetizer and entrees. Took over 30 minutes to get my salad and our appetizer. Entrees were not that hot once we finally got our food. Overall, the service was generally poor, and the food was just ok...nothing I couldn't have made MUCH better at home, but it was birthday, and I didn't want to cook. Expected WAY better food for the prices. If I never go back, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.

    The service was great. We have eaten at Park several times in the past and the food was excellent. This time it was definitely subpar. Fries were not hot or freshly cooked. Ramen noodles underdone so much that we had to send them back. Calamari and citrus shrimp were underseasoned. Tiny piece of chicken breast with the chicken Genovese. Overall, very disappointing meal for a high price.

    The WORST place to eat in Columbia. 1 of 4 people could eat their food. Undercooked steak completely raw and cold in the center that wasn't even warm enough to bleed and the 2nd one, medium ordered, had blood coming out it was so undercooked, cold shrimp skewers and didn't even get a side with entrée, but it was on the bill. I've had better steak at Golden Corral! Overpriced terrible food with very slow service and the waitress was not attentive at all. So for 3 drinks, 2 salads, 1 appetizer and 1 person to eat $100, with a discount, not including tip that took 1.5 hours. I don't mind paying for a great dinner but that much money to leave and go elsewhere to be able to eat. Holy Cow, absolutely the worst experience!

    Bartenders were great. Fabulous Old Fashioned. The coconut crusted salmon was very good. Associate had the filet and it looked like it should have been rejected from the reject bin. It was flat. Never seen a flat filet. Overall though a great experience.

    The food was not what I have loved on multiple previous visits. The Brussels were under cooked, Ahi Tuna in the bowl was a bit tough. Steak was sub par, definitely not a $40 steak. The Winter Wonderland drink was missing the thyme and not served with a beverage napkin. I will be back but hoping for a better meal. Always love the ambiance though.

    Second time we’ve been here and it was amazing once again. We had the tomato bisque soup, poke stack, Caesar salad, shrimp skewers and pesto chicken. All was very delicious. Our waiter Brandon was amazing! Very attentive, sweet, and funny. Gave great recommendations on the menu. Once again, if you’re in the area, definitely stop by, you will love it!

    We are on a road trip and decided to go to Park Restaurant for dinner. It was a random pick but out of the 2 weeks road-trip dinners, this was by far the best food we’ve had. The staff was super friendly, our waitress Jasmine was amazing and attentive and hostess Michelle was super sweet. It was nice bumping into a fellow Cuban in Missouri =) Definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re anywhere in the area. I had the Pork Belly Miso Broth and my hubby had the Coconut Salmon and they were superb! We also had the poke appetizer which was delicious as well!

    Reservation was sat promptly. Danielle was our server. She was fantastic, checking on drinks and making recommendations on the regular menu as well as the specials. Overall meal was very good but the pork belly ramen was a poor option. Noodles were undercooked and their were chunks of UN chewable pieces of pork in the broth. Lesson learned not to try ramen at a bar and grill

    The restaurant was quite nice. The food was very good and service was good. The only complaints were that they were out of some pretty important things, soda water, ginger beer and 20 mins after order poke bowls, we were told they were out of rice and would be another 30 mins if we wanted to wait. Also, some of the food came out cold. They did adjust the bill due to these issues which we did appreciate and we will come back because of that and the fact that the food was good.

    We took our daughter to Park for a birthday dinner. Our server was abysmal. He got drinks for us, took our order, then disappeared for thirty minutes. When my husband asked for more drinks, the server was snippy, claiming he had “been fighting in the kitchen for our food.” In about ten minutes, the server returned with our food, which was cold. My macaroni was swimming in watery sauce, and pork tenderloin was rubbery. Everyone else was not happy with the quality of their food either. We will not be returning.

    Food is very good. However, I want practicality over circuses. I had a huge sandwich served on a plank. It required a plate. It had a ton of aioli that dripped everywhere. Very attentive server.
