Talk about an absolute hit of a restaurant! My wife and I came by for a Houston Restaurant Weeks brunch and she still can't stop talking about how amazing it was months later. She's planning on bringing her friends. The restaurant is tucked into the corner of a building on the edge of Discovery Green. Even though it's indoors and air conditioned, it's designed to evoke a French open-air bistro on the edge of a park, and the atmosphere delivers. For our first round, my wife got the yogurt parfait and I opted for the lox & bagel. We were both expecting small portions given the three course meal, but no, it looked like we pretty much got the full size menu items right off the bat. I was full enough after the first round that I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to finish the rest of my meal. For the second round, my wife got the etoufee crepe and I went with the brunch burger. Again, both of the items were absolutely spectacular, and full size for the price point. We ended up taking half of each item to go just so we could make it to the third round. For the last round, I got the creme brulee while my wife opted for the strawberries melba. Once again, absolutely spectacular food. Service across the board was spectacular. The waiter was a little snooty at times, but always professional and never rude, which added to the authenticity of the experience. We'll definitely be back.

This restaurant is perfection. I mean beautiful, elegant, rich, and everything else you could think of when thinking of a wonderful fancy restaurant. Well, we went there, and our waiter was a French gentleman, and he had a perfect mix of refinement and French antics, which I adored. He was great, explaining things I didn't understand with the patience of a well-trained royal staff member. He looked somewhat offended at me when I asked for spicy sauce, but I hadn't tasted the food yet. The food here is real. What I mean is that when you taste the food you realize how fake the yogurt is from your grocery store, how much depth and flavor things like tomatoes, eggs, and berries have. The way they combined things such as yogurt with berries and honey created a perfect mix of taste and pleasure. I felt like the girl in romance novels who moaned when they ate a dish because, before that, I thought that was stupid. No, man, this was Mmmmmmm good. I had never tasted so much good food in my life. And did I tell you how beautiful and refined this place was? It's not like a formal gown restaurant, but man, you gotta wear your Sunday best or your cutest date outfit because that place is too cute to be boring in weekend yoga pants and t-shirts. Even the prices made sense. The only terrible part is that it's deep in Houston and not nearby me. Take the woman you love or want to impress here. And I gotta bug my husband now to take me back, because this place was too perfect to not return.

French restaurant. Might not be good with little kids. Steak frites and short ribs were perfect. We order medium rare to appreciate the steaks freshness. Short ribs were not too sweet. We didnt care for the escargot because it tasted like its missing salt. Service was attentive and friendly. Ambiance can be a mid level bar scene or a romantic dinner with chandelier. Really decent french restaurant.

We were greeted promptly. Our waitress was very friendly. It's a very cute place restaurant. I like that the tables are spaced apart so it doesn't feel cramped. There's complimentary bread, they come out hot and served with butter. I really liked the braised beef but the vegetables that came with the dish was the unexpected star. The steak and frites, we ordered with the peppercorn sauce. The sauce was very tasty and made the perfectly cooked steak even better. We enjoyed our dinner here.

My first thought regarding Brasserie du Parc is: this café is perhaps cosplaying as a French dining establishment, and kind of misses the mark authenticity-wise. Nonetheless, I had a good experience dining here with a friend one afternoon. Étoile Cuisine et Bar is my favorite French restaurant in Houston thus far...I remember ordering vichyssoise and escargot from Étoile. The chef there, Philippe Verpiand, also was once affiliated with Brasserie du Parc. Maybe that's what's missing at Brasserie: a real French person running the kitchen. Haha. I thought the dining room was much smaller than I thought it would be. The posters in the bar were cool, but to me, that doesn't quite establish ambience. Elsewhere throughout the restaurant, I didn't think the decor was memorable. In fact, it was rather basic. The lunch and cocktail, in my opinion, were quite good. Parking is more of a challenge. There are areas for improvement, but I enjoyed my time at Brasserie du Parc. For more details: 5/5 Lychee Symphony Cocktail. This was a delicious, sophisticated cocktail. Made with: Lychee liquer, vodka, passionfruit, ginger and simple syrup. 5/5 Bread with Butter. The bread here is so good. 5/5 San Pellegrino water. Of course. 5/5 Crepe Soufflé - Grand Marnier Creme Anglaise with Raspberries. A great dessert. 4/5 Crab Cake with Remoulade sauce and Arugula salad, with radish and avocado. 3/5 Ambience 3/5 Did it seem like an authentic French culinary experience? Not really 2/5 Service 2/5 Wait Times

We had an amazing brunch experience here. Atmosphere is superb on a sunny Sunday morning after strolling through Discovery Green, it's relaxing and lovely, quiet and peaceful. We sat next to the window, so we were able to enjoy a sunbath while doing some people watching. Parking is free on Sundays for downtown street parking. Service is impeccable, staff are welcoming, thoughtful and attentive. Location is so central, we also went to Phoenicia afterwards to have a nice walk in the store and grab some unique items. Every dish from appetizers, main entrees, desserts and drinks + coffee is just perfect, flavor is great and presentation is excellent! We did the HRW menu, loved everything we ordered. They also give you complimentary bread as soon as you sit down, such a nice little touch. We will definitely come back!

I came here for a lunch with a few vendors and it was during restaurant week. We sat down immediately as we had reservations. The restaurant's atmosphere was very nice and you can definitely tell it was French inspired. My only issue was that it was hot in there. I don't know if the ac was out that day but it was rather humid. I loved the Crab Cake. I would just order that if I could. The salmon was okay, I just wasn't a fan of the tomato based soup at the bottom. But overall nice place to dine

Downtown parking is either street meter or super expensive lots. We had to drive around for a while to find a street parking. The restaurant was cute, felt like you stepped into a cafe in Paris. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. And the food was yummy! I liked the avocado with the tuna tartare, and it came with little crostinis. I tasted my friend's soup and that was rich, creamy and delicious! The duck Confit! OMG it was so good. The skin was crispy. The sauce, divine. I loved everything about that dish. I went with a simple dessert of strawberry and ice cream. I really enjoyed that brunch and it definitely was worth it with HRW.
