(READ THE WHOLE REVIEW) I want to start this review by thanking our waitress, Taylor, for asking and listening to our concerns, and the manager Gabriel for taking heed to what we said, explaining his high expectations of his restaurant, and trying to make sure we left with a good experience! I really commend you two for wanting to set the bar high!
I was very hesitant on making this review because of them, and actually waited a few days to write it. I typically write my reviews right away. I decided to go ahead with it because it wouldn't be fair to all of the other places who received an honest review from me.
When we first entered I asked the greeter to be seated on the opposite side of the establishment, where one other party was seated, because where we were assigned had two other parties on both sides, in close proximity. One group having like 5 guests, and the other 2. We had 5 people in our party. I was told that they seated groups based which server they were given, which was alternating. Understandable in a pre-covid environment. Yea, we could have left right then & there, but we dragged my hungry parent and grand parent down there after a long morning of house hunting. On the whim of having a decent previous experience last summer, and a tasty looking brunch menu (which is apparently only served on Saturday & Sunday: our fault for over looking the days).
Although distancing did not take place, all waiters and waitresses wore masks and gloves. The bathrooms were clean, as well!
The menu was very limited, and I would not recommend bringing young kids here UNLESS they have a large palate of foods they'll eat or try.
Outside of water, our drinks were a diet coke and a lemonade. They were both good. For our appetizers, we ordered the sweet chili chicken wings. They weren't spicy at all, which was a huge plus with our group, as 3 out 5 did not eat spicy foods. Everyone enjoyed the wings!
For the meals, my parent and my boo bear both ordered the Parc Burger with a side of fries, one well done the other medium well. Both came out medium. Both said their burgers had no flavor at all. The toasted brioche bun crumbled as if it was old (NOT SAYING THAT IT WAS), and surprisingly it didn't have a sweet taste. They both liked the bacon that was added, and the fries!!
I ordered the shrimp tacos and fries. To me, I did not like the sauce that was drizzled on top, as it tasted like liquidy sour cream, the tortilla tasted old (again, not saying that it was), and the shrimps tasted really fishy. I also enjoyed the fries!!
For my kid, I ordered the grilled chicken wrap that came with a yogurt ranch sauce on it (we added bacon on it, and took the red cabbage off), and fries. She loved the fries! I thought she would have liked the wrap because she's practically addicted to ranch, but she didn't. I'm guessing it had cilantro somewhere in it, as that's what I tasted. The "ranch" did not taste like ranch. If you order the wrap, I would suggest using honey mustard, or that sweet chili marinade as the sauce.
As a back up dish for the kid, I ordered the beef tip tenderloin (strogonaff style), which is what my grand ordered as well. It had a sour cream based gravy, which we agreed, washed out the flavor that may or may not have been put in the dish. My grand said the beef was really tender and had a nice taste to it! I thought the egg noodles were cooked perfectly!
Overall, the fries and the chicken wings won our taste buds. Although we repeatedly told him not to comp our bill, Gabriel took off a few of the uneaten items because he really wanted to make sure we were happy. We were happy, not because of the adjustment of the bill (because we really did not want that, as we ordered a lot of food; although we didn't eat it, and we spend good money wherever we go), but because Taylor asked, and she and Gabriel took the time to actually listen to our concerns. They both established that they wanted better for their restaurant and notified the cooks. Mostly for them, and the fries of course, I'm giving Parc 4 stars.
