Hands down my favorite restaurant by far. Everything is so well crafted, even down to the sconces on the walls, and you can taste the passion Chef Phil brings to his dishes; quickly followed by the pristine service by Josh. I can’t say enough good things about Park Place, but what I can say is that I will be going here every chance I get. Every experience at Park Place is exceptional. As a Pinelands employee, advocate, and lover, Park Place nurtures an appreciation for foraged ingredients not just from NJ but other areas that are special to Phil. Thank you for changing my perspective on food to value a great meal and nature even more than I already do, Phil and Josh. I’m so happy I was welcomed to your table for an extraordinary night out every time I get the opportunity to go to Park Place!

We've been here three or four times and every time it is truly a delight. Although it's relatively under the radar, I'd confidently say this is some of the best food in the Philadelphia area. When Michelin comes here this restaurant is deserving of some stars. I cannot sing enough praise this restaurant.

Best way to describe Chef Phil's fine dining restaurant is "Wow!"What does a small town have offer a worldly chef to open and operate at this level of excellence? I can't say for sure but Merchantville should be proud to have this level of dining available, even if it is only three nights a week. The Maître d' Josh is accommodating and key to ensuring that your experience is delightful. Overall original and exciting meals await your presence.

Delicious, beautiful details go into every bite, in a lovely, intimate space.

One of the least impressive atmospheres I've seen, well ever frankly. Very childish. Food was mundane. The "fresh" ingredients are questionable at best. Plus the toilet wouldn't even flush, what?? We will not be returning ever.

The food was outstanding, a dinning experience with amazing ingredients.

An amazing gem of a restaurant.

Chef Phil is amazing! His dishes are so creative; the ingredients are the finest, and many items are actually foraged locally. The service is excellent; so attentive and personable, and each dish is timed so you never feel rushed. Presently, there's a fixed menu with five courses, including a homemade pasta dish. Because of covid, only three tables are occupied in the restaurant at any one time, so reservations are a must. Dinner is served on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, beginning at 5 o'clock. We travel to Philadelphia often to have dinner, and Park Place is still our favorite. If you're a foodie, you must experience Park Place immediately!
