    I always have a great experience at PARC, but my Christmas night dinner was nothing short of exceptional. From the warm welcome I received at check in, my wonderful server, Miss Amy’s attentive and fun service, and my delicious meal, this particular visit is one I’ll happily remember. Also, a special thank you for always treating solo diners with respect! It’s for all these reasons I’m a loyal + faithful PARC diner. Looking forward to my next visit!

    The best Cowboy Cut Pork Chop I’ve ever had! The Brussels were a little too oily but mashed sweet potatoes were yummy! Overall, good food, good value, and good service.

    Pre-theater dinner. We were quickly seated and our server arrived promptly and cheerfully. Two of us had familiar favorites which did not disappoint, two had new to us combinations involving scallops and shrimp. Both were richly flavored and enjoyable.

    This was basically a nice experience . It was basically empty when we got there but soon became extremely busy and loud so not as relaxing as we had hoped:) Don’t like that they automatically add 20 % tip to bill and then think you should give more??? For just 2 people!! Large group yes but 2? We are usually good tippers so if they had given us the chance the waitress probably would have gotten a bigger tip but adding right away as you bring the bill … NO Thank you!! Doubt we will return even though the cinnamon rolls were amazing !!
