The Taste SheriffJanuary 25, 2018Hidden gem alert! When any other brunch place is packed on a Sunday afternoon, head here for great food and flexible attitudes. Great prices too.
Kaela StuartAugust 12, 2014Love this neighborhood spot! Have never had a less-than-delicious meal here, from wine selection through to dessert. Try the classic escargot.
Kathleen ClarkSeptember 6, 2011One of my favorite French restaurants in the city. Everything tastes fresh and is well-prepared. The wait-staff are incredibly helpful & good-natured. Best of all, the food isn't over-priced.- Some of my favorite stuff I've ordered from the nightly specials board. Also love the braised beef cheeks. The Brie appetizer with the roasted garlic is delicious! Bistro Central Parc is the best.
KayeNovember 25, 2012The wild mushroom risotto is amazing. I would order that again and again. The beet salad worth writing home about as well. The food, the service.. This place makes me wish I lived closer.- Magret de canard - the duck breast. It's phenomenal. Also the Volcan au Chocolat is a great way to finish.
Michael DaoDecember 2, 2013Special Dinner: Filet Of Salmon: Grilled salmon, parsnip puree, broccolini, baby carrots is so good! The best French dish I have ever had! Try this!
Pierre A.June 30, 2017The filet mignon and the canard confit were delicious. Pricey but good spot for classic French food.- Mariianne CraryDecember 27, 2014Owner is almost always there. Fantastic host. Very high quality food at a low price point. Favorite spot.
Cristián SepúlvedaJune 29, 2013Must have the Volcan Au Chocolat. Probably best fondant I have tried so far. Share it if you can
Dana FraserDecember 15, 2013The bald French man with glasses-- he's the only person who should be pouring your mimosas. Wine glasses > flutes
Danny FrielOctober 14, 2013The dill butter sauce on the tilapia was sooo good! And our waiter was funny.
Dominique SamuelsApril 16, 2010Amazing amazing amazing food. Fois gras on top of filet mignon. Great wine. Very French.
Rachel DaveyJune 22, 2013The Croque Monsieur is mmmmmmazing! But don't get it if you don't like lbs of melted cheese.
Cindy PhungSeptember 26, 2010Chef Nicolas is the best! Every dish was great but I can't stop thinking about the Kobe beef tartare.
Tracy LAugust 18, 2013Made reservations for 6:30, but the owner insisted it was at 6. He called me a total of 8 times in a 4 day span! Not good for large parties!
Brian HoldenJuly 3, 2010Soup du jour never fails. Have yet to find a bottle of wine we don't enjoy. Talk to Kristine.
