Stephen Starr's stylish addition to Rittenhouse Square pays tribute to French cafe culture, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, ideal for a quick bite or a leisurely meal. Parc recalls the chic brasseries of Paris, serving classic French fare in a charming space. Red leather banquettes topped with frosted glass provide a sense of intimacy. Details such as well-worn wooden chairs, vintage framed paintings and photos and antique brass fixtures transport guests across the Atlantic. French doors spill onto a sidewalk terrace covered by a dark red awning perfect for dining "en plein air."

    Had a delicious brunch at Parc. Started with the bakery basket- yum! Then had the egg white omelette-it was a delicious combination of ratatouille and goat cheese. The bread basket had a variety of breads, my favorite was the cranberry nut. A friend ordered the French onion soup- was also very tasty and cheesy. All in all a wonderful meal!

    Food was good - although the beef bourguignon was really more like pot roast. Service was not good - “auctioned” off the food every time they brought something to the table - they should know where it goes. Sat with dirty salad plate for 15 minutes while bussers whizzed by the table constantly. Dessert arrived without spoons - server ran away before we could even ask. Wouldn’t rush back - seems like they may be trying to ride on their reputation of days gone by rather than put in a true effort anymore. Definitely not up to Starr quality.

    What a memorable brunch with parents from out of town. Our server was terrific - attentive but never hovering, every need anticipated. Celebrated a birthday and enjoyed pastries, quiche, trout, fresh juice and coffee plus champagne and a shared desert. Food was perfection as always and decor festive and cozy. Parc is outstanding and delivers year after year.

    Our server was spot on, friendly, funny and helpful. We love the onion soup and the day after Thanksgiving is a tradition for us. Great spot, wonderful food.

    I like the location. It has a Paris type vibe. There are lots of tables inside. Everyone was very friendly and polite. My waiter was fine. That being said, he did not ask why it was that. I did not finish my meal. I was feeling out of sorts so it wasn’t worth it to get into it as I just wanted to leave. I did not take her to go bag. I took one bite.
