First time to dine at Park Bistro. I would recommend it to anyone for a great dining experience The food was excellent. We had the Salmon dish and chicken dish. Both were magnificent! Servers were friendly and on task. We could visit without having to raise our voice’s. The dining room was airy, cute and welcoming. The outdoor dining looks very nice as well as the bar area. Well done, we’ll be back.

Food was good, steak was cooked a bit more than I like it but was tasty. Wait staff are very friendly and helpful. It’s a nice quite a little bit romantic place to take a date. I’d go again.
