    So glad that we discovered this restaurant! The service was wonderful. And the food--wow! We started with the fig and pig pizza and wedge salad. Main courses were shrimp and grits and the chicken breast. Everything tasted wonderful. Reasonably priced with nice portion sizes. We'll definitely be back!

    Went for a dinner away from downtown Nashville, a local gem with great atmosphere. A specials menu was available from the chef. We ordered off the main menu and everything was on time and tasty. A little piece of bread with the pasta would be nice.

Valet parking was easy, our greeting at hostess desk was friendly, seating was fast, service was good, menu selection was great- something for everyone. While it is pricey, for a special occasion it is THE spot that will highlight your celebration!!!!!!

    We could not have had a more enjoyable, wonderful experience. The service was exceptional (Jordanne was top-notch), the food exquisite, the wine list excellent, and the ambience exactly what we hoped for. It is rare to go somewhere because of its outstanding ratings and for the restaurant to exceed your expectations. We could not recommend Park Cafe more highly.

    Starting with our host - Yvette, everything was wonderful. She greeted us, helped us with options, engaged in friendly, upbeat conversation. Our server Josh was just the right amount of attentive but not hovering and made good suggestions on the menu as well. Our table of 3 had shrimp/grits, hoisen park chop and chicken. We all shared and agreed all was yummy but the mac/green chile cheese and grits were perfection. We wish we had a 4th so we could have tried the scallops as they sounded great. We had a small specialty pizza as appetizer and wish we had room for what sounded like wonderful desserts - next time. Friendly neighborhood feel, elevated but not fussy. We will be back.

    I lived close to The Park Cafe for 15 years in the Richland area but never ate there. My wife and I went last night and they made me realize what I’ve been missing. The food and service were both first class. We decided to split three of the small plates. Their mussels were beautifully cooked with a predominantly white wine, garlic and parsley sauce with charred garlic rubbed toast. Perfect. Next came the lamb chops. Wonderfully pink with an expertly cooked slightly charred crust. We finished with their smoked salmon on potato cake with capers, sour cream, red onion and lemon juice. Everything was served quickly and efficiently. We will be going back. Soon!
