Always the perfect spot for a reunion with friends! Parc’s food, service and professional staff met all our expectations today: from the seafood appetizers to the the trout amandine, comforting roasted chicken, delicious mussels, and chicken paillard, everyone enjoyed their lunch. Our server, Tiffany, was wonderful.

What an amazing place! Hands down the best empanadas I’ve ever had in this city. Had the pleasure of talking with Jezabel & Mariana Velasquez along with many other interesting local women for the kick off of Cookbooks & Convos. It was most definitely a night to remember!
