The inside is one long strip and unpleasantly noisy. The outside tables were quiet, and there were heat lamps to keep us warm. The staff was very friendly and professional The food was delicious. The weird thing about this bistro, is that you make a reservation, but they really don't have a table saved for you. So what is the point of making a reservation. That is unacceptable.

I live nearby and this is my Go to place. Everything is good. It is reasonably quiet. Nice team

We ate outdoors under a heater. It was perfect— no noise! Great food and very attentive waitstaff even though we were outside.

We had an excellent dinner. The food and service were wonderful. Will definitely eat here again. The early bird special is not to be missed!

One of the best anniversary dinners we've had in a long time. Cute place, friendly people and great food. We'll definitely go back.

This is the second time in a week I've dined at Bistro Central Parc - it is getting louder and louder. First, the music has changed - what was sort of vague European music has become loud music and with a definite beat - and not very appealing to being at dinner with friends - if this is a French Bistro ... the music choice needs to match. And then when you have a friend who has trouble hearing - it's killer. One couple - one on each night - who both have loved the Bistro in the past, independent of each declared they will not come back. Period. It was asked to turn the music down a bit, and finally it was just turned it off. And it was still very loud for some reason - perhaps because we had become used to shouting at each other? They've got to solve this - or they will lose loyal customers.

What a great experience! The food was incredible and the service matched it! We had the burrata and fig as a shared starter. I had the chicken marsala for a main (sooo good) and for dessert the sticky toffee bread pudding which was wonderful. The tables are close together and it is a on the noisy side, but it is definitely a restaurant to go and visit. We will go again!

Great evening out. The place was packed and VERY loud, which was unfortunate since I was treating a neighbor who has hearing issues. The four of us had the early bird special which is an exceptional deal. Choice of any salad, starred entree, and gelato. My fellow diners really liked their salmon. I had the chicken Marsala and it was fantastic. And I am picky about my Marsala. My neighbor wanted the lava cake and the early bird allows dessert substitutions at 50% off. Flexable Prix Fix. Highly recommend. One of my new favorite neighborhood gems.

This was my second time dining here and again, the food was very good and the prices are very reasonable. My family really enjoyed the pasta dishes my salmon was good. Only complaint was it was a little loud, but when requested, staff turned the music down.

A warm welcome and knowledgeable waiter who did everything possible to make our night out memorable! We had the Early Bird special dinner that was such an amazing dinner! White wine was perfectly suggested and so enjoyed with my chicken marsala. The whole meal from salad to gelato was delicious and we appreciated the chef's hard work! Thanks!

I booked a Thanksgiving dinner in advance with my friends because both the restaurant’s website and the open table menu listed turkey as the “today’s special.” I had other options to choose from, but I specifically picked this place for the turkey. When we arrived, there was no turkey at all. The server seemed surprised, and after some back-and-forth told us they couldn’t find a cook to prepare the turkey menu. I made the reservation a week in advance, and the website clearly gave false information — it completely ruined our holiday experience.

Thank you for outstanding customer service and a delicious meal on Thanksgiving. I arrived at 7pm & enjoyed a glass of wine at the bar until my guests arrived for our 7:30 dinner reservation. My experience at the bistro was exceptional. At least 5 staff checked in on me multiple times to ensure I had everything I needed. We ordered 2 french onion soup, 1 calamari, 3 short rib, 2 desserts - all were excellent. The lighting and music were quite pleasant. We will happily return. Thank you again, Bistro Central Parc team.
