This is Nashville local spot in Sylvan Park and it’s important to us that it stays! It’s got a warm layout that perfect for families, dates, large parties, holidays, whatever you have on! You’ll see people dressed to kill and another group just coming off a walk around the greenway… it’s our go-to spot with friends and visiting family.We tried their new brunch service and it delivered. The vegan option was fantastic (not on the menu) and makes it easy for me to take out a group and still have something for myself.

Bob was our terrific server. I loved the French toast and my Bloody Mary was good with a nice touch of spice. The monkey bread was addictive; I probably wouldn’t get it if you’re having the French toast but we shared it for the table. Everyone left happy and with full bellies. Recommend!Parking: Valet parking at Saturday brunch. Limited space available it seemed.

Came here for a not so boozy brunch but did ordered a very mean bloody Mary !! If you like shrimp and grits, you should try their version with stir fried onions with chorizo and chopped dates. I never had anything close to this way and i love it.In general, portion is decent and well prepared. Service is convivial and free parking in front of the establishment. Our server is a long time Nashville resident and he recommended a BBQ place when we asked, we went and we love that joint too.Parking: Free valet parking . No cash for tips, you can venmo

The new Manager sent us several samples of their sandwiches and an amazing charcuterie board at my place of work. Their take on a pimento cheese sandwich melted in my mouth! Thank you!Vegetarian options: great choices - delicious!

My roommate and I went together since we had heard how amazing the atmosphere was and it lived up to the hype! The food was amazing, the atmosphere is the perfect spot for a date night or fun dinner with friends. Our server Josh was so kind! All in all the people, the food, and the vibes were great!

Chaotic service and meal presentation. Order 2 cocktails, 1 wine and 2 beers that took 30 minutes Mussels ordered /they were out and no known to server 1 salad wrong and then forgotten No bread after 20 minutes with making requests Bottle of wine presented with glasses that were warm and smelled like chlorine from dish machine. Pizza presented burnt and sent back to redo which then was excellent No attempts of apology or awareness from staff or management

We come here a lot. The food is always consistent and we enjoy our time. The prices are fair and not as expensive as downtown restaurants. I'm not sure if they changed something recently, but our server (a tall gentleman) was outstanding! always a good place for a business dinner, celebration or just getting together with friends.

The salmon entree was wonderful. I substituted grits for the rice. My husband had the crab cake with the green beans. Everything was delicious. Service was wonderful. Also glad they have valet parking. We had special drinks for our dessert. Everything was wonderful.
Service very slow. Eggs Benedict different, just muffin, egg, Hollandaise...no ham. Hollandaise has cayenne which for some is too spicy, no option to have plain. Bacon was very good as were scrambled eggs. Server didn't listen on refills of Bloody Mary's & brought spicy when unspicey was requested. Small dining room which can be noisy especially if small children are seated there.
This was our second time to visit in 2024, and we were so pleased to see that Park Cafe is still the outstanding restaurant that we have loved for several years! After a change in ownership we were not certain the quality and experience, that has been a hallmark of this quaint neighborhood restaurant for years, would still be evident. We were so delighted that the food, the service, and the ambiance was still the same. Our compliments to the new management for keeping the original charm of this restaurant.
Thankful the new owners changed very little on the menu. We were a party of 4 and enjoyed Happy Hour cocktails and a lite dinner served by a very attentive waiter. Looking forward to "next" time!

Brandon was a fabulous waiter. We split bacon wrapped dates, a pimento cheese sandwich, squash bisque and s'mores bread pudding. All so good and different. Am definitely glad Park Cafe opened for lunch.

This was our first time coming to this restaurant, and thought this would be a great place from the reviews. The food was delicious. However the service was extremely slow. The restaurant was extremely loud, where we couldn't converse with our guests. If you want an intimate dinner skip this restaurant. If you don't mind a loud restaurant this restaurant is fine. It was all adults , but the noise level reminded me of a kids pizza place .
