This was a wonderful first fine dining experience. I was struck speechless by some dishes. The espresso before dinner was not complimentary, the hollandaise was slightly cold over my tortellini and the potato gratin’s cheese split which was unfortunate but overall it was truly a magical experience and the were highlights (the nonalcoholic spritz, the magical lighting, the dessert, and the aji with apple and peanuts) that struck me speechless and made up for it. Magical. Wonderful. So happy I did it.

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.

The food and atmosphere were amazing as always! However it was noticeably understaffed in the week before Christmas. The staff that were there were great but you could tell they were doing it all.

Bastia's food was wonderful, a great, interesting menu to choose from. I was particularly touched by how sensitive the server was to my gluten free preferences, bringing me a crudité when serving the bread to the others at my table. Beautiful, intimate and warm atmosphere. Our server Amanda was exceptional. We hope to return again and again...
