Best Restaurants for Groups in Franconia

Thanksgiving Dinner at The Washington House was the way to go for this party of two! Caitlyn was our server and she was pleasant, attentive, and efficient. the price fixed menu had sufficient choices to suit our tastes. We enjoyed trying a few dishes we had never tried before and were not disappointed. The restaurant was busy and yet there was not an excessive noise level in the front dining room where we were seated. We'll be returning on Christmas Eve for their price fixed luncheon menu which is also a favorite of ours!

The food and atmosphere was great! The service this particular time was slower than previous dining experiences there, but overall great place, especially with the Christmas decorations!

We were greeted, seated and then treated to a lovely dining experience. We started with a couple of the specialty cocktails-Romarin and Nouveau Basilic: their pour was generous as our drinks lasted through our meals. A bonus of a basket of bread was brought to our table, such a rarity! Baguette, sourdough and what seamed a seasonal bread with cranberry and walnuts with beurre---seemed such a treat! Our waiter was attentive and made well informed dinner suggestions after asking us our preferences and we enjoyed the beef bourguignon; duck a l'orange and roasted chicken. Parc has made our top 10 list of places to eat while in Philly!

The tuna special with capers and ginger was outstanding. The chicken parmigiana was very flavorful and tender. The Caesar salad was enough to share as was the chocolate mousse for our dessert. Arielle’s is one of our favor restaurants. They are consistently excellent.

It’s a great restaurant with a good menu option. My wife and I got married at Normandy farms and we eat here every year. There are unique options in the menu every season. Recently we shared a tomahawk steak. It was one of the best I’ve ever eaten!
