A very nice remodel. Bar still needs to expand their choices but drinks were good. Menu very good and service was great. The Bucstini was excellent. The creole Caesar was soooo tasty. Cornbread ok but wish they had other bread choices. A bit too expensive for food choices… we thought. Overall a great meal!

The food was amazing as always. Our server (I can't remember his name) was wonderful. He was knowledge about the menu, great personality and never left us waiting for anything. I brought someone who'd never been there before and they will definitely be a repeat customer.

We enjoyed our dining experience at ParkShore. We started with a drink at the bar which was great. Then to our table, where Reese was our server. We had great food and service. This restaurant has been here for 18 years so definitely a reliable choice - it was busy, so highly recommend a reservation. You could tell it was a local favorite. Alaskan King Crab legs and Beef Wellington were awesome!

Really enjoyed the event dinner with a larger group. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. There were two other company parties the day of our reservation but no issues with getting our food and drinks out. A really comfortable environment with a decent amount of food selections
