Restaurants near Mann Center for the Performing Arts

We enjoyed our second visit to Talula's Garden last night. I cannot say enough about the thoughtfulness of the management and waitstaff. We were late due to accidents on the Schuylkill and needed to rush. The thoughtfulness started before we arrived. It was expected to be cooler weather than usual and I received a call regarding my outside dinner reservation in the afternoon telling me that they do have heaters but that I should bring jackets to assure we were comfortable. We really enjoyed our pre-theater dinner before seeing a show at the Walnut Street Theater. We were brought drinks almost immediately by our excellent waiter, each of us enjoyed our cheddar biscuits and soup and our entrees were delicious! We especially enjoyed the seared salmon entree. Although our food was served very quickly, due to running late we needed to get to the theater and were unable to stay for dessert. The restaurant gave us a cinnamon cake to share, which was a perfect ending to a great meal! We will definitely be back to enjoy the lovely ambiance, beyond excellent service and delicious food.

We had an awesome meal. We had the rolls and the fried chicken. Amazing. And the apple tarte and buttermilk ice cream was so delicious. Our server Dylan was very pleasant and accommodating.

I’ve been coming to Parc for years. The bread basket is excellent. The food is always good. We had a simple lunch today sharing the mushroom tart and salads. When I reserved our table, I asked to be outside if possible, and that I didn’t want to be in the back room. When I arrived, the staff was very pleasant and had our table waiting outside along 18th St. They can’t always accommodate these requests but today they could. I also want to say that the service was perfect. I’ve never had an unpleasant experienceat Parc. 

Amazing atmosphere for a date, food were delicious. great service

I loved everything about this place. The food was great, the service excellent, and the ambiance is eclectic and unique. As well, I have a gluten allergy and my husband is vegetarian. We were both cared for well. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and careful to warn me of potential cross contamination. There was a gluten free menu and my husband had no problem finding (delicious) vegetarian options. I highly recommend this place. My husband and I will be back. Probably many times over.
