    Always the perfect spot for a reunion with friends! Parc’s food, service and professional staff met all our expectations today: from the seafood appetizers to the the trout amandine, comforting roasted chicken, delicious mussels, and chicken paillard, everyone enjoyed their lunch. Our server, Tiffany, was wonderful.

    A beautiful decor. Our second time there and again had the 3 course lunch. Food was great but more than I could eat. Everything beautifully prepared and presented. Service was also excellent. One in our party had the vegetarian sandwich which he enjoyed and since it was a smaller meal he had a luscious chocolate dessert as well. Highly recommend.
