New larger menu & Better food The 4 of us all ordered different items and all said that the food is better. Solid 4 star now Service was ok. Wait staff was nice but could not recall who ordered what. Not a big deal since there were 4 of us. HOWEVER ... and unfortunately They have gone cashless - I don't like this one bit. No salt and pepper on the table...have to ask for it. read more

First time going since staying at hotel and went w a colleague. Both had buffalo wings which were great and chicken genovese. Had broccolini and mash potatoes as sides which were also great and huge portions. Now for the chicken as it was so darn overcooked. Hard to eat and they overcooked both of ours sadly. Come on folks your chef has to be able to cook basic grilled chicken to be juicy. Will go back but order something else. Service was great as well read more

Came in during graduation weekend so it was pretty busy and service was a tad slow. Food was not bad. We got the cheese curds, calamari, and spinach artichoke dip to share. The cheese curds seemed almost over-fried/burnt. Calamari and spinach artichoke dip were standard. For entree I got the chicken pesto pasta which was also standard, not anything amazing about it. read more

Unreasonably long time to get food with more staff than people eating. Not very clean outside with garbage and landscaping not being attended to. Food was ok but nothing that would come back for. ....might be worth going to ...just to see if you can figure out the atmosphere as that was the topic of conversation over lunch. read more

Gave the Park another try tonight. Food, Drinks and Service were excellent. The Breaded Tenders are hand battered and came out perfect. The burger was just exactly as ordered. Their fries are super. Crunchy on the outside and hot and moist inside. Would be worth just getting. We were given a small parfait as a complimentary dessert. Our server, Beth,was great. There anytime we needed anything and always checking to make sure everything was great. Excellent job. read more

TERRIBLE experience. Sat at our table for 25 min before having to go to hostess stand to let them know that we had not had anyone approach our table for even water. 2 1/2 hour in we got our food. 2 of us had Poke bowls and the tuna was very "off" If someone had come back to check on us we could have let them know. However, we were so ready to get out of there we paid our bill and left read more

Stayed at hotel near property. Family wanted a quick bite after a late lunch. ordered wings, small salad, & steak tacos to go. service was prompt and friendly at 'To Go' counter. Food was sub par. Corn tortillas was dry, cold, & tasted old. Bulogi steak was so dry & crema very thick. Overall awful dish w/ no flavor. Son said wings were ok but menu said 1/2lb and we received 6. Salad was salad...ok overall and we ate all of it. Poor quality of food . Did not dine in. Looked nice in dining room but I would not return based on poor food. read more

I have never experienced service this consistently bad at any establishment. What makes it worse is how overstaffed this place is, yet nothing seems to get done. On a previous visit, we sat in the dining room for over 20 minutes waiting just to get our check, and only received help after flagging down a busser. Today was my fifth visit and absolutely my last. I sat at the bar and waited 10 minutes just to get a beer, ordering food at the same time. Keep in mind, the only reason I even had a menu was from a local sitting at the bar that had got up and reached over to grab me one. There were 2 bartenders and what appeared to be a manager behind the bar and maybe nine guests total seated at the bar. I was seated at the very end, which the employees refused to come near or even look at. I finished my beer without a single employee acknowledging me again until my food arrived, mind you, bagged as a to-go order that was never requested. When I mentioned this, I was told I could simply take it out of the bag and eat it there. It felt like a group of college kids running around doing whatever they wanted instead of working. I have given this place enough chances over the last several months, just due to convenience of location. I assure you, I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy after today nor will I ever waste my time or money there again. read more

Before I forget....TERRIBLE SERVICE! They will take your order (after you give them a dirty look while they are on their phones), bring food then the bill. That's it. No water, no how was your burger (which was RARE, not medium rare), no are you interested in desert, nothing. We left there laughing at how bad the service was. No discounts of any kind. The food wasn't too bad. I had the Park burger and my son had the shrimp tacos. Both were pretty good. The French fries were outstanding. When I asked our server if there was a cash discount, she mentioned the owners were stingy. It was all I could do to say "I am as well" with no tip given. read more

The server only waited for one person at the table to make any kind of request and would leave before anyone else could order anything. It started with my son not even being able to order anything to drink other than water. The wait for food was unreasonable and when it came out the girl delivering it was throwing the plates around. We will never be back because of the service. read more

Three of us had half price Park burgers on Tuesday night. I had a nectar salad with chicken. All the food was excellent. Ian was her server and was amazing. His willingness to please and attention to detail stands way above average. This has become a regular spot for us. Love the place. read more

service was great and ambience is nice but the food is just not good. they do try very hard?!

Great service and atmosphere! Loved the restaurant setting and the staff was very friendly, Ian was our server and he was very good! Attended to all of our needs and came over at all the right times. read more

Fish with fish n chip entree was mostly batter and not good. I have had this dish in the past, maybe a different recipe/chef? Chips were terrific!! Drinks were good. Service was friendly and prompt. Sat near a vent so we felt a little chilly at times, but overall not too distracting. We declined a table that was under some rather bright lights. I have been several times and I really want to like this place, but nothing about it has gotten me excited about returning just yet. read more

They advertise in the hotel next door (Town Place) that they sell take out beers for $2.99. Imagine my surprise then I ordered a couple to take back to the room and it was $15.00. DON'T GO There for take out. read more

Bulgogi Philly was flavorful, but did not have the structural integrity to back it up. Lavender Creme Brûlée was rubbery, lacked a firm sugar crust, and tasted like hotel shampoo. Service was definitely a saving grace. Hannah F. was a delight. Quick and attentive. I would not say "well", but definitely sixty dollars spent. Beautiful restaurant and dining experience on the outside, unfortunately a mirage. Primary draw was an enticing menu and a reputation of partnering with local farmers and merchants. Park has severed many of those ties and squandered its potential and quality in the process. Also the Tropical Tea comes with boba and is served with the thinnest possible straw; definitely a choice. read more

Much better options in town. Service poor. Food average but high price for quality. Fish n chips @ $24!

Very good service and tasty, quick food. Lots of beers on tap. Wide variety of foods available.

Well darn. I have mixed feelings about this one. The restaurant is beautiful. We walked in at about 4pm for dinner and we were the only ones in the place. Nice should get excellent service right? We ordered ice tea and calamari for the appetizer. Great start but it went downhill from there. We ordered the fish and chips for my husband and I opted for the Steak and Frites! After a modest wait time our food arrived at the table. I would have expected quicker service since we were still actually the only customers. My husband's fish and chips were beautiful and tasty. My steak arrived alone on a plate with the sauce on the side as requested. No Frites in sight! I asked the server doesn't this come with fries? And she says no? But I can get you some? I said no that's okay because I was worried that she would charge me extra for the fries! Clearly confused and frustrated I let it go. Mind you I paid $34 for about 6oz of steak and it sat there looking sad and alone! After a few minutes the server brought me a big bowl of Frites! Yes! Great someone must've explained to her that frites are indeed fries! Well great at least my steak had company now. The server never returned to the table, no refills on iced tea, no clearing of dirty dishes from our appetizer. Where did she go? She had one table to care for? The steak was cooked perfectly medium and tasted great! So overall the food is pretty good, even though I had to fight for my frites. Calamari was a bit chewy but pretty tasty overall. The service staff needs better training and knowledge of the menu. Maybe during all that free time they spend chatting at the bar could be used for training? We felt as though we interrupted break time and that we should have waited until a more appropriate "dinner" hour for our meal? Overall it was okay but we probably won't bother to drive out for this mediocre expensive restaurant. Disappointed. read more

Terrible service with long waits and being ignored. The waffle was hard and dry and didn't come with butter.

I took my mom to Park for Mothers Day Brunch. I wish I had better things to say but it is what it is. First, we had reservations and had to wait a long while. It appears that there were only two waitresses on for the day and nobody cleaning tables. Most of the tables had used plates on them that had not been cleared floors needed swept and bathroom was filty. We ordered and the one bright spot was the drinks and food came fairly quickly; that is where is ends quickly. My mom ordered eggs Benedict, my sister ordered the poke bowl and I ordered the ramen with smoked pork belly. The eggs Benedict was bland tables had no salt or pepper on them. My ramen soup was lukewarm at best. The pork belly was awesome but the broth was awful and had a funny smell. The noodles were rubbery and not edible. The only meal that appeared to be decent was the poke bowl. There was no chance of getting salt as there was no waitress to check on us. I did get a tea refill but that was because we had to flag her down. I will not be back, I would like to say that I would try it again but once bitten twice shy. read more

A modern restaurant feel; that has a number of cozy enclosed booths that make for a comfortable environment for dining. The items we tried this evening: A. Chicken park pops. The chicken legs are trimmed out for an upscale look. Cooked with a Korean sauce that was pretty darn good. You'll likely find yourself wishing you had a side of this sauce which to drizzle or dip in. Putter texture had a touch a crisp. A great item to start off with. B. Spinach salad was also a great salad. Has a somewhat tart pop of balsamic; with a touch of sweet. Sun dried tomatoes, pecans and a boiled egg. Another good elevated spin on a typical spinach salad. C. Bulgogi philly. Thai sandwich was ok....maybe even good. But it is overall a fairly dry sandwich. The slight heat of the sauce/shmear on the sandwich was good. But enough on the sandwich to help with the fairly dry texture. D. Pork belly ramen. The pork was some pre-fab/pre-smoked piece of pork belly. It wasn't too bad....but nothing like a (nicely done) piece of pork belly being in the dish. Ramen itself was some pre-packaged ramen - that will have a chew texture similar to Maruchan ramen packs you buy in the store. How the bowl presents at the table, is better then the actual experience of eating the dish. If you're a ramen aficionado; don't order. If you're in the mood for some brothy dish...it's certainly good enough to eat. read more

How have I never heard of this place? The atmosphere was so different from other places in columbia, honestly was a nice night out. My girlfriends and I came for dinner and loved it. We shared bulgogi nachos, my friend had the nectar salad and a burger. My mail meal was the ahi tuna with a side of jasmine rice. All delicious!! I would definitely return and give more foods a try, as well as drinks. read more

We came here for the second night in a row. Last night we only had drinks, but the menu looked good, so we came back for dinner. We started with a Dirty Martini and Main Squeeze Marg. Both were really good, we each had a couple. We got Bulgogi Nachos for an app and although very small, they were delish!! For dinner I had the Gamboretti Pasta and he had the Bulgogi Philly with a side of Brussels. All the food was amazing. Hannah was our bartender and did a great job! We will definitely be back! read more

I hesitated to write this review because this place is newer, but I'd want to know the real deal before I went. We had a group of six people with us and tldr no one liked their food. I had the pesto pasta and ended up not eating it. Two people had the other pasta dish that was more Alfredo like and it just had no flavor. The person with the pho bowl said it was just alright, maybe the best thing from the group. Others had the shrimp and also didn't like it. The Brussels sprouts came out so burnt the waitress asked if they were too overdone. Positives: the waitress was very friendly and patient as our group was chatty and having a hard time deciding. The spinach artichoke dip with the wonton chips was actually very delicious. Super greasy but a good couple of bites. I'm sad to say with six people just really not liking their food I won't be back. Several also had upset stomachs in the evening after dinner. I hope others have a better experience, but unfortunately for us this is a no. Apparently there is new management so maybe they were having an off night for us. read more

Most affordable, upscale, and trendy restaurant in Columbia! Perfect place to bring your parents, a nice dinner out with your friends or date night spot. Aside from these pictures I've also had the black bean burger and pesto chicken. I haven't had a meal from Park that I didn't like. On top of amazing food they also have great cocktails that are always changing/rotating. If you haven't been here yet, go soon! read more

Very happy to see this place in Columbia! The menu is very modern with a great deal of Korean influence from the owner's global travels. Decor is very modern with an aesthetic that is very clean and symmetrical. Some co-workers and myself went for a lunch visit during the first week that Park was in general operations. We ordered a la cart mostly from the small plates menu. The Park Pops, signature Korean glazed chicken lollipop, were fantastic and lived up to the hype. The double battered fries were also a stand out dish. A surprise dish that blew us away were the brussel sprouts! They were buttery and cooked perfectly. The buffalo chicken wrap was a tasty dish. The only dish the was, quite honestly, underwhelming is the pork belly sliders. The pork itself lacked flavor, was sliced too thin and wasn't even crispy; good concept poorly executed. For dessert we had the house made sugar cookies. They were just okay. There are other desserts I would be more excited to try. The waitstaff was exceptional and very attentive. The general manager even came over to chat with us and even showed us around the restaurant and kitchen. The owner was actually at the table adjacent to my party but never came to check on us which I thought was odd during the inaugural week. Overall good experience. I plan on going back soon. read more
