Owned by brothers John-Thomas and Christopher Scott, Parker's on Ponce is Decatur's first independently owned steakhouse. The Scott family has always been extremely involved in the local community, including local government. The restaurant is named after John-Thomas' 12 year old daughter, Parker. The whole family is often seen at the restaurant - it is not a business to them, but a home - and they treat guests of the restaurant as family as well.

    The food was excellent the presentation I ordered salmon and the rice was really good. The salmon had terrific flavor and my partner ordered the steak that was done correctly for her taste. She said that it had perfect seasoning and baked potatoes loaded and she loved that she had a mixed drink and she said that was on point. This was our first time visiting Parker’s so our overall experience was two thumbs up.

    Great food and our server was fantastic. Although we were dining late, Caroline was just as bubbly and friendly like w were her first customers for the day! It was my husband's birthday and receiving a dessert gift from you was the "icing" on the cake. Parker's atmosphere is the best!

    The tables near the bar were cold and drafty - no offer to move to warmer tables when we commented on room temperature discomfort Service generally ok- often the food and drinks delivered to wrong person- too much cross reaching by back waite, needs reminding how to set and pull service items The goat cheese begnients (sp) were very good 1 steak of 3 needed a tad more cooking - in spite of request to butterfly the filet Dessert for Birthday girl was a nice touch We’ve been here same date last 5 years- may be time to try something new
