Stephen Starr's stylish addition to Rittenhouse Square pays tribute to French cafe culture, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, ideal for a quick bite or a leisurely meal. Parc recalls the chic brasseries of Paris, serving classic French fare in a charming space. Red leather banquettes topped with frosted glass provide a sense of intimacy. Details such as well-worn wooden chairs, vintage framed paintings and photos and antique brass fixtures transport guests across the Atlantic. French doors spill onto a sidewalk terrace covered by a dark red awning perfect for dining "en plein air."

    Had a great lunch and a glass of wine with my wife. The Quiche Lorain was delicious with enough to take home. The mushroom soup was a large serving and very good. I had the chicken curry sandwich which was also delicious. Also I recommend the deviled eggs. It was very festive with the decorations and holiday shoppers. The staff was very attentive and pleasant especially our waitress Danielle and a young man that chatted with us for a bit who may have been the wine steward. We have been here several times and will continue to go back.

    Everything was amazing. The wine selection has multiple price points, which makes buying by the bottle very comfortable. The food and wait staff were amazing. We started with raw oysters, we all had the French Onion Soup, which was outstanding, and each had different main courses. Oh, and the bread was outstanding! Everyone in the group enjoyed the meal, ambiance, and conversation. Couldn't ask for a better evening.

    Had a delicious brunch at Parc. Started with the bakery basket- yum! Then had the egg white omelette-it was a delicious combination of ratatouille and goat cheese. The bread basket had a variety of breads, my favorite was the cranberry nut. A friend ordered the French onion soup- was also very tasty and cheesy. All in all a wonderful meal!

    Food was good - although the beef bourguignon was really more like pot roast. Service was not good - “auctioned” off the food every time they brought something to the table - they should know where it goes. Sat with dirty salad plate for 15 minutes while bussers whizzed by the table constantly. Dessert arrived without spoons - server ran away before we could even ask. Wouldn’t rush back - seems like they may be trying to ride on their reputation of days gone by rather than put in a true effort anymore. Definitely not up to Starr quality.
