- LLaTishaChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoWe had such a wonderful dining experience at this charming Parisian bistro! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The unique raisin nut bread was such a delicious touch and a perfect way to start the meal. The lobster cocktail was absolutely scrumptious, and my medium-well steak au poivre was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The service truly went above and beyond. Everyone was warm, attentive, and accommodating, and I especially appreciated that they offered to check our bags for us — such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more enjoyable. My colleagues loved their meals as well, and the best compliment was that everyone finished their entire plate! We all left very satisfied and impressed. Excellent food, wonderful hospitality, and an inviting Parisian atmosphere — definitely a memorable dining experience!More infoParc$$$$• French• Rittenhouse Square•4.8
