    There were four of us for our very first restaurant Thanksgiving dinner and other than the fact we couldn’t stretch out in a sofa immediately after it went perfectly! We were seated 15 mins early and attended by terrific Tony who was perfectly attentive in spite of being super busy. We all had the Turkey meal, we were all extra hungry and polished off the warm bread really quick. The platters of Turkey, stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce came hot and heaping! We made the mistake(?) of preordering a dessert to share. We had to ask for 4 to go plates plus one for the ginormous 7 layer half choc cake they served! Everything was wonderful and we had a great first Holiday dinner out! Thank you Perry’s!

    Sometimes we forget about this wonderful restaurant. The food and the service was superb. My party of 4 had the sea bass, the filet and the lamb chop appetizers. There were perfectly cooked. Great sides too! Please don’t forget about this restaurant. I highly recommend

    The bar area is always a great experience. The service (we had Britney) is always above and beyond. She has the most positive energy and very attentive. And I can’t say enough about the live music on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with David de La Garza Trio. They are simply amazingly passionate and talented.
