Editorial Review for Park Place Restaurant – by Eunice Louie

The Scene
Located in front of the Cypress Hotel, the restaurant's Mediterranean decor makes it a hip hangout for locals, tech travelers and the occasional celebrity. Sunny colors, modern fixtures and geometric accents create a warm and fun environment. Service is quick and the staff is ready to make menu recommendations.

The Food

The international menu caters to a wide variety of palates, with dishes cleanly presented and for the most part, well-executed. Horseradish cream softens the lightly salted house-cured salmon and crispy potato cake appetizer. While the seafood paella is brightened by touches of basil and vibrant yellow saffron rice, the nontraditional brothy consistency takes away from the bounty of shrimp, clams, mussels and chorizo sausage. However, a sweet, juicy, baked peach complements the thick, tender grilled pork chops smothered in sweet, ruby port sauce that complements, but never overwhelms the dish. Candied pecans sweeten warm, freshly baked banana bread pudding.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Park Place is well kept secret. It is tucked away inside the Cypress Hotel in Cupertino, but don't let that stop you . Although parking is hard to find at times, it's well worth it. Service is spotty, but the managment is always there to correct problems. I would reccomend eating at the bar, they have a seperate menu with lower priced items and happy hour priceing.

Pros: Friendly staff, good food

Cons: Hard to park, loud in bar

We went on Valentines Day and what a let down! Luckily we love each other enough to make the most of the night. Our whole experience lasted a dragging 2+ hours. The waitress was short, cold and clumsy. We had five or six different servers. The food took forever (about 20 minutes between each course). And the food was marginal at best. To top it off the watiress stuck us with a 18% gratuity for only the two of us. WE WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN!!! We've had better service at Taco Bell!
