   Our server, Maxwell, was incredible. We always have a lovely time at the Park Bistro but Maxwell was the icing on the cake.

   We had a lovely time sitting by the fire! Relaxing atmosphere. The filets were very good as were the beet salad and French onion soup!

   When I made the reservation a few days ahead I asked for a table in the main room in an alcove. When we got there the host said all the alcove tables were taken. I was very disappointed and will not return soon. Don’t ask if you have a special request if you are not honoring it.

   Two of us dined on a very busy Saturday night when the wait staff (& doubtless kitchen) were at full tilt, but everything was excellent from the service, food, and always the ambiance!

   I used to be a regular at The Bark Bistro, but yesterday ended up being my last visit. Although we arrived early, we were seated in front of the restroom and trash can. Our server was actually a bartender, and she only checked on us twice throughout the entire meal. No one assisted us, no one brought us utensils, and we had to ask multiple people for help. The restaurant was overcrowded with a large party, making it extremely loud, and there weren’t enough staff to handle the situation. We constantly had to request our next course because no one was paying attention to our table. It was an absolutely disappointing level of service.

   My friend and I had a lovely Valentine Day lunch at the Park Bistro. However our experience was colored by the disconcerting reception of the hostess at check in. She seemed confused about where to seat us. I shared that I had made a reservation for inside. The hostess said that the main dining room was getting a little crowded and that we would be sitting very close to others in the dining room. She then suggested that we might enjoy being outside. She offered for us to look at the outdoor space, which only had two people seated there. She then offered seating in the bar area, which felt crowded and dark. We then asked could we see the seating in the main dining room. The main dining room was not full and seating there was very comfortable for us. There were at least three tables in the main dining room that were never in use during our two hour visit, from 1:00 a 3:00. While we enjoyed our food and the ambiance of the main dining room, the initial reception left us a little disappointed with our experience. I must however compliment the wait staff, they were very attentive and we enjoyed our food. This was my second time visiting this restaurant. My first experience was in the main dining room and I had a great time with girlfriends.

   The menu was excellent and the food superb. Nice ambience, but the host and sever were rushed and impersonal (especially while ordering…)
