Per Se - New York, New York

Julie's bites

We have been to a few two and three star restaurants that did not live up to our expectations, but Per Se did. The food and service exceeded our expectations. When we first were seated at our table overlooking Columbus Circle, the hostess pointed to a small stool and said, "This is a rest for your purse." This small touch tells you about the attention level in the restaurant. Each course was perfectly timed and bursting with flavors. The sizes were perfect. By the end of the dinner we were full but not stuffed. And then came six or seven tiny desserts. At the end we got a bag with tasty morsels as mementos, as well as a menu of what we had signed by the chef. It was a memorable dinner.

I can’t express how amazing Per Se is, not just the unbelievable dishes but the staff are top tier. This was our last night of our Anniversary week celebration in NY and it made our entire week worth it! If I could give more stars I would, thank you again to Per Se for making our experience wonderful!

This was an excellent experience. The service staff was phenomenal. They were very professional and friendly. They helped guide us through the menu and ensured our dietary restrictions were not a concern at all. The main dining room and 9 course tasting menu comes with a hefty price tag but it is worth it. The food is excellent and you will certainly leave full but not stuffed. This was one of the best meals we have had to date. Walking through a mall to get to a 3 Michelin Star restaurant is off putting but the view once you get there helps you forget all about that. I'm very happy we had the opportunity to eat in the main dining room and next time I am in New York I will do my best to get a reservation there again. Definitely add it to your must eat list when visiting NYC!

When you book at a Michelin 3 Star restaurant expectations are pretty high. Especially when you fly in special to New York for your wife’s milestone birthday.

Could it be that good?

The short answer is yes.

Amazing view. I couldn’t believe our table overlooking Central Park.

Wait staff. Totally matched our vibe. Attentive, funny and the right mix of leave me alone with a hint of answering questions and lightheartedness. Shoutout to Eric!!!

The food. It’s all about the food, right? Upon the first bites in your mouth you wonder what you’ve been chewing your whole life. It certainly wasn’t this. I have the palette of a kindergartner and even I was blown away from the flavors, textures and sensations.

To top it off a few special extras for my wife’s birthday. Worth the special trip. Couldn’t imagine having done anything else.

We booked the salon the day before on a recent trip to NYC, hoping to try a few great wines. Well, we arrived and were seated at a great table in what was the most beautiful salon in the world, only to be told that they had a last minute cancellation in the restaurant and we’d be seated there for the night, with the option of the 5 course salon menu or the full restaurant menu. We stuck with the 5 course salon menu and it was just superb. The staff were so professional, John the somm was full of great wine ideas, the food was sublime and the ambience just right. For a 20 year old restaurant on the top floor of a shopping mall, it is still shooting the lights out and right up there with the many top world restaurants we have dined at. Save your pennies and put this on your special occasion restaurant list, as it won’t disappoint. And wait till you see the desert course - a right royal banquet of goodies. We’re stilling dreaming of it.

It's spectacular, it lived up to it's reputation. It's a seven course tasting menu, although if you count the number of desserts it's more like 11. We both had the wagyu supplement which we would highly recommend.

We have done a number of Michelin three starred restaurants, some deliver and some disappoint. In New York Per Se and Le Bernadin are both extraordinary. We were really underwhelmed by Jean George.

This place is so hard to review. Obviously the cooking is at a world-class standard, but aside from a couple of dishes like the classic oyster and pearls and the quail. Nothing really blows you away. The eight or nine different desserts is a nice touch at the end and there’s some real crackers in there the thing that’s most surprising about this place. Is that the atmosphere the decor feels like a Hilton lobby. Which when you’re paying $400 a plate feels very underwhelming, I’ve definitely had better. Michelin star Dan experiences and I would not say this is a must do.
