Wonderful service Didn’t feel rushed at all Wonderful food and cocktails!

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 food and service were great! I would have liked if the waiter slowed down a bit when telling us about the specials as none of us at the table really understood him

Charming re-creation of an English Pub. English Pub food has gotten much better than it once was, and The Dandelion's food was excellent. From the Dandelion salad to the Root vegetable soup to the Rabbit Pie, all excellent. Our server (I regret I've forgotten her name) was perfect - friendly, efficient, professional. Only negative (for us) was the noise level - we ate upstairs during the lunch rush, and it was busy and noisy with energetic conversations with several tables of 6 or so surrounding us, which of course has pros and cons. But still highly recommended. We did not inquire if a quieter table was available - I think it may have been.

White Dog Cafe is fabulous for a delicious breakfast/lunch meet up with friends. We have been here several times and this was the best so far. Our waiter was extremely helpful and courteous to our friend who is somewhat handicapped. The mushroom soup is absolutely delicious. They did not rush us even though it got very crowded as the afternoon wore on. I love the ambiance here, too. Very comfortable seating.
