    The white staff is very attentive, and the food comes in the right timing. The weight staff all seem to enjoy their job, which makes it an enjoyable meal. I definitely will come back.

    This is a great neighborhood restaurant with a classy, rustic vibe. Busy even on a Wed night but they got is seated pretty quick since we had a reservation (recommended). The starter salads were fresh and tasty. The short ribs were falling off the bone and delicious. Loved my sweet potato gnocchi and wished I’d gotten the full order. A well crafted martini and a mocktail were the perfect accompaniments. Well be back!

    Park & Howard has really upped their game lately. We had a very enjoyable meal. Their service has always been good, but the food was delicious. We had the salads that were all good, and beautifully presented. Our part had the scallops, salmon, and spare ribs. All were great! Oh, and the cocktails are creative and delicious.

    I usually give a 5-star rating. Today, being Sunday, it wasn’t busy, yet the service was not as attentive as it usually was. And the food is ok but not great. Perhaps a substitute chef?

    This is a nice restaurant & they make innovative, interesting dishes. But we happened to be seated next to a table of 10 people partying & getting out of hand with noise & clapping, taking pix of each other. It was so loud we couldn't talk with the person we were seated next to. They should hav be seated in their own room.

    We generally love Burlingame, but have not explored this side. And Park Bistro did not disappoint! I will definitely go back with my husband as there are more dishes and cocktails to try!

    Fantastic! Was in town just for the night and came to Park & Howard. Started with the artichoke which was amazing! My wife, who loves artichokes, said it was the best she has had. She had the Grilled Pork Chop which she loved and I did too! Our server recommended the Tagliatelle with the short rib. Amazing!!!! Cocktails and wine were fantastic. Service excellent! When back in town will be sure to come back!
