" My visit to Café du Parc was mostly excellent. The interior is so charming, adorned with French influences everywhere. I had the pork belly as my main and it was nicely cooked, very flavorful, albeit small in portion for the price. The only hiccup was the service, which could be improved; we waited longer than expected for our desserts. Nevertheless, the food quality was high, and I will be back for sure—just perhaps not at peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had breakfast at Café du Parc during my last trip and it was delightful! The French toast was soft and fluffy, exactly how I like it, paired with some fresh berries. We sat outside, which added to the charm. Service was relatively quick and accommodating but could have been slightly more attentive. Perfect spot to enjoy breakfast al fresco while in DC! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Café du Parc. The highlight was definitely the pastries - I tried a fruit tart and it was delightful, very fresh! However, my main dish, the ratatouille, was just okay. The flavors were not as bold as I had hoped. Service was friendly although took time for our orders to be taken and our food to arrive. Great ambiance but food can be hit or miss. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Café du Parc was just average. I had a classic French dish, coq au vin, but it didn’t impress me; the flavor was somewhat lacking. Service was friendly but disorganized. I had to wait quite a while for simple requests. The atmosphere was lovely, but unfortunately, those factors didn’t make up for the disappointment of the dish I ordered. " (*Curated Review*)

" Lunch at Café du Parc was a hit! My friend and I ordered the salmon salad and it was not only fresh but also beautifully presented. I had high hopes for their dessert, the chocolate tart, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was bright and inviting, perfect for a midday break. The only complaint is the limited lunch menu; I wish there were more options to choose from. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love Café du Parc but unfortunately, it fell short for me. The food was just passable—the beef tartare lacked seasoning and my friend’s duck was cooked unevenly. While the ambiance felt welcoming, it seems like they invest more in decor than on perfecting their menu. Service was a bit slow too. Not the experience I sought, but it could vary depending on what you order. " (*Curated Review*)

" I dined here with friends last week, and the experience was just okay. Nothing really stood out that made me want to rave about it. I had a steak that was a bit chewy, and my friends commented that their dishes were similar. We enjoyed the atmosphere, but the food did not leave us impressed. I might give Café du Parc another chance for breakfast, as I’ve heard good things about the pastries. " (*Curated Review*)
