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."

    Always a solid choice for a nice dinner with a good, energetic (yet romantic) vibe when in Philly. Anthony took good care of us.

    Parc never disappoints— every item on the menu is delicious, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. It’s a bit noisy at busy times, but the service is always attentive and quick even when the place is packed!

    Parc is reliably dependable and provides a great dining experience. It’s an energetic environment but the noise level was manageable and didn’t prevent great conversation. Service was good and very knowledgeable about the food options. We ordered the Seabass, which was excellent and nicely presented with gigante beans. The mushroom tart was  a lovely seasonal option. Both the trout and the salmon were nicely done and presented, although the salmon could’ve used some vegetables or garnish on the plate.

    The front desk was friendly and efficient and seated us 15 mins before our reservation. Bartenders were also superb. Our food was outstanding - oysters, mushroom tart, deviled eggs, shrimp salad, escargot. Bread and butter are delicious and irresistible. The only drawback to the evening was our server who took a very long time to bring our wine, never brought grated horseradish for the oysters, and when reminded said it was the kitchen’s responsibility, did not return to take orders for the spinach I wanted to order. Overall, one of our favorite restaurants, a little slice of Paris in Philadelphia
