    This was our first experience at Parc and it exceeded our expectations. Having dined at three other top rated restaurants, Parc was by far the most enjoyable from the moment we entered and throughout our meal. We can’t wait to go back. Superb food and an outstanding staff!

    Had no idea what to expect at Mollie considering they don’t even have a proper dining room. Was so pleasantly surprised by the level of service and the food. All four in our party loved everything we had. Would go back again tomorrow.

    Service was really good. Ambience was warm and homy. We ordered crispy Brussel sprouts, crab cake, avocado crunch salad, lamb bolognese, and curry salmon. Also order a bourbon cocktail and chocolate mousse. Everything tastes great! We had a great time after a whole ski. Staff were all very friendly!
