    Impeccable service and delicious food. Today, I am a lady who lunches so I treated myself to a nice meal in a fancy place. I checked out my options in Skippack and this place popped up. After reviewing the menu, I was sold. The staff are friendly and professional (so tefreshing!). My pizza and wine pairing was a perfect match!

    Salmon eggs Benedict with hollandaise sauce on the side. Delicious!

    We have had both dinner and lunch at Parc Bistro, and neither meal disappointed. The food is nicely plated, and delicious, and uses inventive combinations while still being traditional. All the food we've had here has been excellent. The service is good, and the staff is attentive without being overbearing. If you come when the weather is nice I would recommend a table in their outdoor space. Inside, the restaurant is very cozy with lots of interesting nooks and spaces. Overall this is a great spot for a nice dinner out or even a special occasion

    Airplane Chicken
    Mary C.

    Parc Bistro really blew us away! My boyfriend and I recently got a chance to try multiple courses as part of a fixed dinner menu for a family member's wedding rehearsal dinner. The food, service, and interior were stellar! The soup of the day (tomato and pumpkin), caesar salad, and airplane chicken were all incredible. I normally would not have imagined pumpkin and tomato going together in a soup, but the concoction they created was perfectly creamy and delicious without being too rich. I'm assuming it was seasonal, but wow holy cow it was GOOD. Would highly recommend!! I also got a chance to snag some of their Caesar salad which was probably the fanciest and nicest Caesar salad I ever had (sadly, I did not remember to take a photo because I ate it too fast). The dressing was super yummy and not too salty, with the right amount of Parmesan cheese and croutons. It also had a very thin bread stick that plated made it look very aesthetic. It sounds crazy but you can taste how fancy the Caesar salad is!! The food was beautifully plated! Now the skin on the airplane chicken was also perfectly seasoned, along with the accompanying potato medallion and veggies. My boyfriend got the crab cakes which he really enjoyed as well. I am not a fan of creme brulee normally, but it came with the meal as part of the fixed dinner menu--the other guests enjoyed it greatly! There also was an apple ?pie or some other dessert which my boyfriend liked. The service here was also excellent. The waitresses were very attentive and brought in a booster seat for our niece (along with whole cow's milk)!

    Lovely, warm and inviting

    2nd Review-- came back on 12/20/23. was nice to be recognized by the host and Greg, our first server. What a spectacular 2nd visit. Cold day, mid-week, came in for an early dinner (we call lunch-dinner- linner). The menu has since changed for winter and wow there are some winners! Again, which Skippack was closer to Yardley. Today Elizabeth took care of us, she was patient and friendly. We started with the French onion soup, which was just as good and memorable as the first trip. For our second course, we shared the Tuscan pizza-- wow, what a flavor profile with a kick. For our third course we had the pork belly tacos- order of 3 and this was the cherry on top of this meal... the sweet and spicy together. The pork simply melted in my mouth and I licked my fingers after picking up the taco to bite each time for the sensational mix of the sauce flavor. OUTSTANDING MEAL

    Oysters
    Paige G.

    Went here with a friend who gave this place a high recommendation. We were seated right away upstairs. We started off with some appetizers, which included oysters and a shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was a nice portion and tasty but the oysters were terrible. First off, they were sitting on top of a pile of salt so with every bite I ate salt and then they were super bland. Very disappointing. Main meals consisted of the fish special and soup. The fish tasted really strange and was not enjoyable. They claimed it was served over polenta, but it was the worst tasting polenta I've ever had. The food was so disappointing that we left without dessert. I can't say I ever want to eat here again.

    Little Gem Salad

    Great food, great ambience. I love a place that will split a salad in the kitchen, and this place surprised us by bringing us each our own when we mentioned we planned to share. The greens were outstandingly fresh. The crust on the pizza was delicious and very light. The Cappuccino came with fresh baked sugar cookie and a stirrer with rock candy to sweeten the beverage. This is a destination place, great for a romantic meal or a gathering of friends.

    Crab Salmon Sautée

    First time at this place and I know I'll come back. Staff is friendly, and food is great! I got the crab salmon sautée.. would highly recommend. FYI - The entrave is a bit hard to pin down at night.

    What type of attire is appropriate for Parc Bistro?

    When I was there, most people were in business casual clothing.

    Going to Parc Bistro for the first time. Anything I should ask/know about before going?

    They may stop taking customers up to an hour before closing time so you may want to call and make sure they will take you before going in the evening.

It's also BYOB, which makes it even better -- bring your favorite bottle and make a whole night out of it. The vibe is warm, intimate, and perfect for date night, but they also have a gorgeous outdoor space that can host up to 100 people, making it such a hidden gem for larger parties and celebrations. They opened in September 2019 -- just six months before the pandemic -- which makes what they've built even more impressive. It's truly family-driven. The husband, Manuel (from Spain), is the head chef, and you can absolutely taste the care and authenticity in every dish. Cindy, who is from Panama, brings so much heart to the restaurant as well. We started with Prince Edward Island oysters and the crab salad, which had crispy bacon pieces for a great touch of texture and the crab was incredibly fresh -- such a perfect balance of flavors and crunch. For entrées, the beef bourguignon was rich, comforting, and everything you'd hope for from a classic French dish. The Dover sole felt elegant and perfectly executed. We ended with the chocolate mousse, which was light, decadent, and the perfect sweet finish. And I have to mention our server -- Delroy was fabulous. Attentive, personable, and so knowledgeable. He truly elevated the entire experience. Between the ambiance, the hospitality, and the beautifully prepared food, La Provence is absolutely somewhere I'll be coming back to for an elevated night out.

Every bite felt thoughtful and elevated. For our mains, we ordered the coq au vin and duck frites, and both were outstanding. The sauces were rich and balanced, and the meats were cooked perfectly. Dessert sealed the deal with crème brûlée and pot de crème. The crème brûlée, especially, was a masterpiece. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself is small and charming with a cozy, intimate feel. The staff were warm and attentive and made the whole experience even better. This place deserves way more hype than it gets. If you are anywhere near Haddonfield, do not miss it.

But one thing is certain: Despite…read morebeing highly recommended via a variety of sources, our recent visit to Agua Bistro proved to be something of a disappointment. Our dissatisfaction pertained neither to the restaurant's appealingly cozy ambiance nor to its spot-on personable service. Rather, it was related solely to the preparation and presentation of a portion of the cuisine; which, despite their website's pontification - "Here you will find Chef's handcrafted à la carte menu inspired by a medley of Mediterranean flavors" - fell significantly short of expectations. But let's begin on a positive note... The Fried Artichokes, which my dining partner and I shared as an appetizer, as did the other couple with whom we dined, received nothing but raves. Kissed by a balsamic glaze, caressed by Panko breadcrumbs, and pillowed on mixed greens splashed with lemon dressing, it was indeed an auspicious beginning. Desserts were also quite good... and our little group managed to sample several noteworthy possibilities. My dining partner, for example, enjoyed the Limoncello Cake while I opted for the Apple Tart with French vanilla ice cream. But by far the most interesting dessert of the evening was the Peach Melba, which was shared by the other couple. Actually, "interesting" is something of a misnomer, as the history of this famous confection is as intriguing as its checklist of ingredients is delicious. Peach Melba is a dessert of peaches, raspberry sauce, and vanilla ice cream (Agua's version also adds whipped cream). It was invented in 1892-93 by French chef Auguste Escoffier at London's Savoy Hotel to honor Australian soprano Nellie Melba. In 1892, or so the story goes, Ms. Melba was performing Wagner's opera Lohengrin at Covent Garden. At a dinner party in her honor, Escoffier presented her with a dessert of fresh peaches served over vanilla ice cream in a silver dish perched atop an ice sculpture of a swan (which is featured in the opera). Originally Escoffier called the dish Pêche au Cygne (Peach with a Swan). Several years later, however, he changed the recipe slightly by adding a topping of sweetened raspberry purée and renamed the dish Pêche Melba. Tasty fried artichokes and tempting desserts notwithstanding, it was the entrées that proved to be the kitchen's undoing... And topping the list of eminently forgettable items was my Pan Seared Atlantic Swordfish, which was overly breaded, unattractively hefty of countenance, exhibited a decidedly mushy texture, and tasted offputtingly "fishy" in spots. Ill-chosen accompaniments such as gloppy white beans, olive tapenade, and bland, under-seasoned, undercooked vegetables did absolutely nothing - either gastronomically or asthetically - to remediate this sorry state of affairs. Definitely not the kitchen's finest hour. While other entrées were not as distasteful as my swordfish, they were still nothing to write home about. My dining partner, for example, wasn't exactly thrilled with her Chicken Parmigiana. Not that it was beneath contempt... but she certainly had seen and tasted better in numerous other establishments. What was particularly telling to me was that the kitchen appeared to be rather careless with its entrée presentations. The food photos I observed on the restaurant's website were strikingly beautiful. Up close and personal, however - in the flesh, so to speak - their appearance clearly lacked a certain savoir faire. And for an establishment that seemed to posture itself as significantly above the ranks of plebeian cookery, this was an unappetizing paradox indeed. The major offender in this regard was undoubtedly the Wild Mushroom Ravioli swimming in a madeira cream sauce. Which, while a feast for the palate - at least according to the other gentleman in our party - was also famine for the eye, bearing, in my opinion, uncanny resemblance to the regurgitation of an endangered species. I don't mean to imply that each and every item placed before a diner needs to be a work of art... On the other hand, it should possess sufficient visual appeal to contribute to rather than detract from the enjoyment of an evening at table. In this instance, with just the slightest bit of effort, I think the kitchen could have made this particular presentation infinitely more pleasurable to the eye. An absolutely charming little BYOB, there is no question that Agua Bistro has all the makings of a first-rate eatery. That being said, however... for idealistic promise to become gastronomic reality, it appears that there must be a significant improvement in both the quality and the character of their entrées.

Let's be honest--I come here for one reason: the soufflés. They are my kryptonite. Sweet or savory, they never disappoint. I've had the chocolate (rich, decadent, flawless), though I'm still chasing my ultimate favorite--the elusive Grand Marnier soufflé. One day... Beyond that: * Mussels + champagne = always a win * Service is warm and welcoming * Prices feel fair for the quality and experience This place has become part of my ritual when I'm in the area. I'll fly into Newark Liberty International Airport, hop on the Amtrak Acela, get off in Princeton, head straight here, and yes--plan my trip around a soufflé. No regrets.

Overall a good time and we'd go back, but just in case we'll wait until it's a bit cooler.
