Our meal at RT Bistro was superb! Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, delicious, and a unique combination of flavors. Staff were friendly + had great recommendations. Main entrees were generously portioned. We joked about getting the aged beef dumplings again as dessert. Already planning our next visit!

• Bistro • The Castro
Booked 2 times today
I'm really enjoying Parasol (although, since I'm an old timer, I'll always think of it as Cafe Flore... I'm glad Parasol has retained has kept the name). The last several incarnations of this location have been unappealing to me, but I *REALLY* like Parasol. Very good food, reasonable prices, friendly & attentive service... I'm becoming a regular, and am glad to say that I've introduced several others here who've also become regulars. At this point -- keep up the good work! It's great to be returning regularly to the Flore.

I have been coming here for over 20 years and have never been disappointed. Last night I went totally off script as in my wife and we ordered things normally not on our set list. We were both incredibly surprised and happy. I had the Branzino she had the salmon. We also had the mussels and fries which were out of this world. Pear martinis were wonderful. Dessert was also impeccable. it was also wonderful to see Philippe. I’m also planning on returning soon.
