Delicious food and gracious, old-world charm. The thoughtful dishes and pacing reminded me of meals I had as a kid at Congressional Country Club, where professional attention to detail and food quality were both equally important. For my meal, the lobster bisque, house salad, beef tenderloin and of course the desserts were all superb, with every item/sauce component having a balanced purpose. Our waiter Freddy was fantastic, and the staff made sure to give me a house-made scoop of ice cream and merengues for my belated birthday. Will definitely consider it a go-to for future special events, particularly for luncheon, as the Prix Fixe menu isn’t a cheaper afterthought, but its own bargain with a nice selection.

We've always loved dinners here. This was our first time for lunch and it was excellent. Two of us had the quiche, one had the bouillabaisse and one had the croquettes monsieur. All were outstanding, and beautifully served. We will definitely do lunch here again.

The food here was phenomenal! Our group of 10 tried the Classic onion soup, the risotto, the filets, and several other items. We were all simultaneously jealous of each other's dishes and protective of our own delicious choices. Would definitely come back 10/10. The upstairs area also had a really cool vibe. Would like to eat up there next time.

Everything about the restaurant was amazing. We had a reservation and were seated within 5-minutes of arriving. The food was phenomenal and on par with what you’d expect from a French restaurant. The wine was an added benefit. Our server was very attentive and offered great recommendations. If the opportunity arises, we will be definitely be back to experience more from Cafe Du Parc!
