I always enjoy Parq Bar(at Montage Beverly Hills) to lounge around for wine, dessert, lite bites and quality conservations. Service is consistently friendly, with complimentary snack tray — nice added touch. The seating area is inviting, soothing, and relaxing. Luv the Heitz Cellars($ 30/glass) cab! The oversized couches are roomy and comfy. They offer live music and high tea on weekends.

Went there for dinner, the dinner menu sucked, the shortest menu I’ve ever seen, the tea list was longer than foods. Only a few options and they were not relevant, Taco, Tuna Pizza, Sushi and Fish and chips. The service was terrible, it took 15 minutes for a waiter to come and welcome us. We actually had to go and ask for a waiter to come and take our orders. I only gave two stars because of the location and the live music.

I only had tea and gazpacho here but I loved both! Service and ambiance is great! Loved the cute little nibblers of chips and nuts served beforehand too.

Came here two separate times over the course of a weekend. Decent ambiance. The first day I had the Croque-monsieur, which is a fancy way of saying pay me 30 dollars for a grilled cheese sandwich with ham in the middle. The next day I had the assorted sushi platter for lunch. It was very good, but only has like 6 pieces. Definitely don’t order that if you’re really hungry.

I’ve had the pleasure of drinking and dining here twice, and both times were very fun, fancy, and delicious. The location is exceptional, inside the Montage Hotel and across the hall from Scarpetta. I’ve come here after dinner at SUGARFISH, literally across the street. One point at which they stand out is that the service is genuinely amazing. Both times our waitresses were very friendly, super attentive, and armed with excellent suggestions. Our drinks were brought out right away, waters always refilled, and the last time, she even noticed that we decimated the potato chip bowl and brought us out another one without us having to ask, embarrassed haha. We’ve come post-10pm both times, so we have only come for the drinks and the dessert and late-night live music. The singers and pianists both nights got some romantic older couples dancing and really set a romantic and classy mood for whoever was dining. And finally, the absolute best part of the experience was the Italian cronut, paired with ice cream. Nothing better. Parking, like for SUGARFISH, is either street parking on Canon(nearly impossible), or valet(mildly expensive). If you’re not staying in the hotel, your best bet is to über/lyft there and back, because the drinks are superb.

Came here to ring in the new year a few weeks back. Good drinks, good food, good atmosphere… what more can you want. That particular evening they had live music and the band did not disappoint. The service was exceptional. Although the place was crowded, the hostess was on top of her game and the manager was walking around making everyone feel welcome. Overall, it was a great experience.

Came by for a quick drink before dinner at Mastros. Waited at the bar for over 15 minutes while the bartender & staff kept looking over. Eventually, an older gentleman came by to help, but left us once again after I asked for a penicillin. So now I’m sitting here writing this review. Come here only if you’re white, rich, or a slut looking for sugar daddies. Everyone around us was one of the 3 and they were all being served.

I came here for a business meeting and did not have the opportunity to try any food or drinks. The ambiance was nice and the bar was really busy, but I hope to come back and try what looked like delicious desserts!

Came here today with my family for a post shopping, get in the holiday spirit drink. While the hotel has the décor and ambiance of the holidays, the service is less than desirable. No food or drinks establishment should have servers who’s perfume is doused so heavily that it leaves people sneezing. Gross. She should work the perfume counter at Macy’s. Service was spotty, having to watch the server chat it up with the bartender while you’re trying to get her attention is annoying especially when the bar isn’t busy. It’s also poor form for the server to grab the bill before I’ve had a chance to put payment down. For a $ 100 tab, I expect more.

My friend and I came here for an Afternoon Tea to celebrate my birthday, at the Parq Bar. She had made reservations prior. As part of the Montage hotel, the restaurant is conveniently located inside a courtyard shared by many other businesses… including one of our favorites Bouchon Bakery. The service is phenomenal as well as the décor and the environment. For $ 55 you can get their Traditional Tea and for an additional $ 10, you can also get the Royal Tea which comes with champagne. We don’t really care for drinking so we opted for the Traditional. Overall I was disappointed with the scones, tea sandwiches and the sweets… however beautifully it was presented. The Earl Grey tea was great but nothing special that I haven’t tasted before. Their lemon curd and the clotted cream was over the top tasty, we asked for seconds. They really do encourage you to enjoy your time there as most of the service was on the slow side. We didn’t mind but be prepared when you come dine here. To end our afternoon tea, the waitress gave us both fresh made gingerbread cookies and a birthday cupcake for me to-go. Unfortunately we were in a hurry because our meter at the 2-hr free parking lot was nearing expiration. Overall the experience was really good but the Afternoon Tea was so-so. There is a parking structure right next door and you get 2-hrs free.

Parq Bar is in the Montage Hotel. It’s in the heart of Beverly Hills near Rodeo, & the cost of real estate must be sky high. So don’t even bat an eye when the standard cocktail is $ 17 not including tax & tip. On top of that, the interior is nice, but it certainly doesn’t look & feel ultra lux. It’s just a tastefully done up bar. Nice pleasant buzz to the room. Frank the bar-t comes off as a nice guy, quiet, laid back, accommodating & knowledgeable at his craft. When I wanted a cocktail w/a bit of Saint Germain/elderberry flower liquer, he directed me to the Eastside Fizz which also included Hendrick’s Gin, lime juice, cucumber, & mint leaves. Perfect for a hot late summer evening. The Saint Germain has the light flavor of lychee & light white floral scent. Cooling cucumber, lime & mint oil flavors induced a vegetal sprightliness. The gin was almost like an after thought since I couldn’t taste the juniper berries. This is a sipping cocktail so that over ½ an hour can go by & you’re just barely finishing it. A nice cocktail to savour leisurely. By now the seat at the chef’s counter at the Scarpetta was ready since the receptionist had given me a call on my phone. Nice place to linger when waiting for a table either at Scarpetta or even Bouchon which is only across the courtyard. 3+ Unilocal stars.

ate a heavy, rich lunch at nearby restaurant, time to wash it down. Elizabeth was our server she was very nice and polite. I just ordered lemonade, it was very good and very sweet. Few of these and your the diabetic posterboy, but once in a while its nice. Family ordered a desert(banana croissant pudding cake) or some shit like that it was awesome. And I generally dislike sweets. It was quite a creative and tasty item. Nice to sit outside its all shaded. Watch other people with no live wander aimlessly on the grassy area in 85 to 90 degree weather. If I ever come back, will try the ice cream. Comfy seats. Coffee is 8 – 12 bucks though, ouch like a MOFO.

Went to Mother’s Day tea here today and was so disappointed. There were 3 of us and they refused to put us at a table with 4 chairs so we were stuck at a small table made for 2 against a pillar. It was so small, they had to bring out a mini table just to hold our teas. The place was empty the whole time we were there so the tables for 4 were available. For close to $ 300 for a special occasion, it certainly didn’t feel special with where we were forced to sit. Never again and I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone else.

Can’t think of a more beautiful out door and green terrace… Perfect for a late brunch. My latte was just so foamy and not too sweet just how I like it! Don’t miss out on the amazing little almond pastry… Yum! LA is where the is

I LOVE this bar in the Montage Hotel. It’s classy, sophisticated, and upscale yet relaxed. All their special drinks are really delicious. Service here is very attentive. They are always quick to give you a menu and take your order. I’ve seen people eat here too and the food looked good but I’ve only had the drinks. If food is your thing though, I would suggest trying the hotel’s highly rated restaurants(Scarpetta and Bouchon) instead. They also have a crêpe place that’s more laid back take out if that’s your thing. They also have live music at night with AMAZING and talented performers. That’s the icing on the cake at this place. Great dates spot(romantic) and good for groups. It’s also comfortable to drink/dine alone here too and just take in the atmosphere and music.

Came here for a luncheon and it sure was fancy. Because it was close to Christmas, it was decked out in trees, ornaments and even a live harpist strumming holiday tunes in the midst of it all. It seems like this a great place if you’re looking for tea time and small plates. Just remember, it’s the Montage, so you’re going to be paying a lot for everything you do. While we were there I saw a soccer player from Italy signing autographs for some adoring fans while one of the coaches for the LA Galaxy was chatting him up about the season. It’s that kind of place. The menu is small and I ended up with the turkey burger. This came with roasted red peppers, a side of chipotle mayo, jack cheese and lettuce. You add the dressing yourself and it definitely gives it that extra bite that it needs. All the goodness was wrapped in a buttery and fluffy brioche bun and you get your choice of side. I went with the fries just because I had that side of spicy mayo that I didn’t want to go to waste! Valet parking is $ 10 with validation from one of the restaurants. It was sort of funny pulling my dirty Honda Fit in the driveway amongst all the Porsches, Range Rovers, BMWs and other high end vehicles, but the valets didn’t bat an eye and were beyond friendly and helpful. Staff was friendly and big thanks to Courtney and Franco for the great service even as it started to get packed. I’d love to come back for a nightcap and maybe partake in tea time in the future!

Sweet cozy elegant environment. Chill. Poor waitresses dressed like bridesmaids but shorter. very, very overpriced, weak drinks — great afternoon tea. Food is obnoxiously overpriced, I would prefer to go across the street to Mastro’s or Bouchon. In fact, we did go to Mastros, had salad and a whooping martini. drinks around $ 17 and like sugar water no alcohol. Fabulous to dress up and have an afternoon tea or for a business meeting, but not much else.

Small and low-key lounge inside the Montage. Came here on a Saturday night with my sister and her fiancé, who’ve been here before, and some friends. They like joints like this but to be honest, it wasn’t really my cup of tea. The atmosphere was very mellow, perhaps too mellow! I was expecting swanky and lush surroundings but the furniture and décor were modest. Crowd was older, I think we were the youngest ones there. It seems most of the young crowd was across the hall in the other bar. Parq is famous for having live bands play, but this isn’t what I want to hear when I’m out having drinks with people. Perhaps this is why Parq is so popular with the older crowd? Their appetizer and finger food menu is also very limited. Drinks were good, but pricey. Wait staff could have been better as well. It took forever to get our drinks and no one ever came back to check if we wanted another round. This lounge is best suited for couples, not for small gathering of groups.
