The experience here left me underwhelmed. I have been looking forward to coming to Parker's bistro…read morefor quite a while, my friend and I stopped for a couple appetizers while feeling a little peckish. We got the Chislic, and the cheese plate. The cheese plate was pretty disappointing, the cheese looked like it had sat out all day. No major flavor profiles, a basket of basic crackers to go along with it and olives. For the cost of a cheese plate I expected to be relatively satisfied with it. No fruits, jams, breads, spreadables (1). The fluidity of the dish was very stale, as well as the freshness. The Chislic is some of the best that I've had, having travelled far and wide, I can say without a doubt this is so far my favorite out of 18 countries and hundreds of restaurants. Our waitress seemed incredibly green, didn't seem familiar with the menu, upon checkout, added an erroneous item to our check, which I would've missed had I not gone over it, overall, I was disappointed in the visit that I had at Parker's bistro. I had had high hopes for my first visit, and was hoping for this to be a new favorite restaurant downtown. Wonderful ambience, absolutely stunning Chislic, great drinks, and warm staff regardless.

A chef driven establishment.... A nice ambiance with plenty of seating. Over the years I've…read moreenjoyed 5 star meals and also a couple inedible ones. I need to ask more questions when ordering. I just can't bring myself to eat rare (raw) duck. An interesting menu I would call French possibly. You'll need to end your meal with an Americano and in home dessert. Most of the waitstaff are friendly and helpful. Don't forget to stop at Parker's cocktail bar, (Myrtles), next door for a night cap. Craft cocktails in a pretty space.

We went to Granite City for lunch on1/27/26. One person ordered fish tacos. The other 2 of us…read moreordered the Shrimp Scampi. We also had house salads with Asian dressing. Everyone enjoyed their delicious meals! Jayla was our fantastic waitress. She was very polite and accommodating! Thank you!

Came here for lunch (after 1pm) on a Wed afternoon. Ordered the 2 for $25 special. We both had…read moreFrench onion soup as an app. We ordered the pasta alfredo and the buffalo chicken wrap with soda and a beer. For a brewery, have always felt their beer choices are lacking. Today was no different. The pasta meal was very dry and the wrap...YIKES!!! I understand anything "buffalo" is going to be spicy but this was over and above. A side of ranch or Bleu cheese would have helped. We would have asked our server for some but she was no where to be seen. In fact, we were pretty much done with our meal before she came back to check on us. By then it was too late. Had they been busy, this could have been better understood but there were only 4 other tables seated and other servers were working It's safe to say this will be our last time eating there.

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. I love the set-up -- coffee house vibe in the front and…read more more of a bar feel in the back. They're separated by a small walk through area. We were greeted immediately. Menu consists of mostly pizza (wide variety with many unique offerings) and burgers. I wasn't very hungry so I just ordered an Arnold Palmer and tots. The AP was a bit watery but that may have been due to a variety of reasons. The tots were fine - could've been crispier but the price was definitely reasonable. My friend got a pizza which has a thin-ish crispy crust / good flavor! They've got a variety of canned beverages, coffees, bar drinks (with a specialty menu which is always a plus in my opinion!) and ice cream. Definitely a unique spot for a small town. Make sure to check it out!

Great food at a great price. The pizza was exceptional. I had the cheese pizza add jalapeños and…read morepepperoni. A personal pizza and a soda pop cost $9. Best meal for the pice, I've had in awhile. Totally recommend.
