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.
We've tried Bistro Central Parc's weekend brunch which we thought was very good. We had Thanksgiving dinner out for the first time. No one wanted to cook. Good thing we made reservations as every table indoors was taken. We sat in the enclosed patio with ceiling heaters. It was much quieter than indoors and we liked the fresh air. Dinner was fantastic! The 12oz - three course ribeye was perfect!!! Our adult daughter is a strict vegan and they accommodated her! Can't wait to try their other dinner selection. Thank you Bistro Central Parc.
I reserved our Thanksgiving dinner a week ahead because the restaurant's website and OpenTable menu advertised turkey as the featured dish. That was the only reason we chose this place. When we arrived, we were told there was no turkey at all (!), and even the staff seemed unaware. The misleading information completely ruined what was supposed to be a special holiday meal.
We live in the neighborhood but haven’t ever been in here and were completely blown away! Best food, specials, atmosphere and service. It was packed and people clearly come here regularly. Can’t wait to come back with all my friends and for a solo 830pm happy hour drink at the bar!

Early bird deal is wonderful & tasty. But, by the time the restaurant fills up the noise is brutal. Service is excellent
We took advantage of the tree course early bird dinner special. Plenty of choices, generous portions, attentive servers made for a great experience!
If I could give 6 stars I would. Food is fantastic, the service is exceptional, they ALWAYS go above and beyond and the atmosphere is perfect. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Good food at different price points. Cooked to order. Adult beverages served. Evening happy hours. Great service without anyone hovering too closely.
A couple of television screens with sound turned very low. Quiet background music that didn't compete with talking to neighbor or across the table.
I expect to return often.

Tasty but wish they had a few more vegetarian options. Regardless the food is very good and it is a nice, intimate space.

Giving this a five stars because the food was amazing. There were a couple hiccups, but it was overall a great dinner. I had the burrata and the truffle ravioli both were amazing. We couldn't find street parking anywhere near the restaurant and ended up parking in the Luckys parking garage. It took a long time to get the food and we had tickets to a show, otherwise great. I wish we would've had more time to relax and enjoy dinner, but it was a rush to eat and leave.
