Every so often, I go back to The Park Tap and Grill, hoping that the food gets better, but it never does. It's ok......but not great. My husband and I ordered the same salad - his came on a plate and mine came in a bowl. Both had too much dressing. That said, the service is dependable.

The service was abdominal, it took forever to get served and once we were we needed to send back our drinks several times. The food we ordered didn't come out correctly. We had to ask over and over again for water, napkins, ketchup, soy sauce, etc. We asked several times for additional wasabi and ginger, it never came. Then they had the nerve to put a 20% gratuity on our bill, while telling us some of the meals were in special, and we should really tip on the full bill! These new owners don't want to be in the restaurant business, why? When we asked to speak to a manager, no one came. It's unfortunate as it used to be our go to place.

We went to The Park before a concert at the PNC Bank Arts Center. The food was good! They offer a wide variety of cuisine: Sushi, Dinner entrees and Burgers and sandwiches off the bar menu. We had to ask for the Burger menu, however. I had the lemon chicken dinner entree. It was delicious; very moist and flavorful. My dinner companions had sushi -- The Park roll - it was enormous, and burgers. Everyone was pleased with the food. The service could have been better. We had to ask for things more than once even though the dining room was empty. However, all in all, it was fine and I would go back.
