    Such o horrible and embarrassing experience. We’ve been dining here since 2018. We invited a close friend and we were treated like trash. Our server Paige did her absolute best to ignore us. She made a willful mistake on my order, tried pathetically to fix it. She’s waited on us before and it wasn’t until now that we realized that the bus boy did most of her work for her. Well this time he wasn’t there to save her. To make matters worse the manager didn’t even care about her poor attitude.
    The Park Bistro & BarResponded on July 8, 2025
    Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear about your recent experience—it’s deeply upsetting to know that what should have been an enjoyable evening, especially with a guest you care about, turned into such a disappointing and frustrating visit. We sincerely apologize for the service you received from Paige. No guest should feel ignored or undervalued, and it’s clear we fell short of your expectations, especially given your long-standing support since 2018. Your comments about the order mishap and lack of attentiveness are being taken seriously and will be addressed directly with the staff involved. We also regret that our management did not respond with the care and urgency the situation called for. That’s not reflective of the standards we aim to uphold. Regards, Andre

    Seems the kitchen was understaffed. Food not delivered as ordered and it took too long to get to the table. Very unusual for this restaurant
