Park Plates - Elkins Park

Consider me food. Have traveled the whole country and tried to list the best food in the areas. Moving to the Elkins Park and heard glowing reviews from neighbors. My husband and I are trying. By far the best food I had in years. I ordered Salmon cooked for perfection. My husband ordered ribeye and it melted in our mouth. The vegetables were completely finished on both plates, because they were their own duck, they were so well thought out and executed. This is Rock Star Food. The service and the atmosphere were great. Menu is small, but speaks with the energy they concentrate in every dish. This is a must to walk place!!!

My daughter and I had a great meal here. The romaine salad was bright and fresh. We also had the watermelon salad with chevre and mint and balm... wonderful. We had the cheese plate that was beautiful. Followed by the saffron poached shrimps. This dish was a little sweeter than spicy and chilled. It was really nice. Our waiter was a jewel. Do not miss the ginger doughnuts when offered. We had a great time. So glad this place is local!

Classic, elegant! Fresh ingredients!!!! Best food ever!!! Super friendly staff and very understanding, especially when we come with our toddler. You also have some nights live music. If you haven't been, a must

Creative, interesting, decadent food and fantastic service. Nice attitude. I was traveling twice to Philly and looking forward to going back in a few weeks. Large handling of food allergies (gluten-free options).

Nice local BYOB. Food was wonderful. The lamb pastry was flaky and flavorful. A perfect comfort treat for cold fall weather. A great app, but at $9 for one pastry, a little pricey. We also ordered the hummus app, which was a little dry and lacked flavor. The short rib was delicious and tender, as was the special braised lamb shoulder. The short rib was plated atop a creamy mashed polenta and roasted root vegetables. The lamb was plated atop creamy feta mashed potatoes and roasted root vegetables. Portions were perfect and filling. We chose the pot de creme with mint cream for dessert. Did not taste mint, but it was really yummy regardless. Service was good. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive without being overbearing. It's definitely a nice local spot for a date night or to get together with friends.
