Excellent Experience – Our experience was so great. When we walked in, we loved the decor- very earthy and warm, and very comfortable. Our waitstaff was helpful and friendly, helping us pick a wine and patiently explaining the food. (We were new to Turkish food). We ordered the artichockes which were soo delicious- think of a classier, better, Blooming Onion. We also had the hummus and the beef tartar, and while Im not a huge fan of raw meat, it was very spicy and tasty- it almost didnt really taste like you were eating meat... read more
Must try for anyone who loves amazing food at a really good price – This is a fabulous new restaurant in an area that sorely needed one. The food is amazing. To me a cross between Greek and Turkish it has fabulous finds at very reasonable prices. App's are around $10 and include fried artichokes, stuffed grape leaves and hummus, you could go with a couple of friends grab some app's, share an entree and some wine and be stuffed for $40. All the food is fresh and has amazing flavors. I would check it out now before it starts t... read more
Wonderful Laidback, Midtown Friendly atmosphere – Pera is a welcome and delicious change from the usual midtown choices of steak or sushi. The atmosphere is warm and inviting for all...families to business. The staff is young, vibrant, and eager to please. The cuisine is what your mom would have made you with a culinary difference...the flavors are distinct and clean and not overly sauced or decorated. Simplicity and freshness are the key to this restaurant. I would highly recommend it to anyone on a restricted diet as the f... read more
A Must Visit !!!! – Went to Pera last night. This place is amazing. This was my first time experiencing Turkish cuisine. The octopus salad was phenomenal as well as the fried artichoke hearts (delicious). We had a party of six and ordered different entrees. I was able to get a taste of them all. I have never tasted meat so tender and flavorful. Everything was amazing. A great selection of wine is avail. to compliment your experience. I love the space. The service was impeccable ( eager to please but not annonying) DEFIINITLY... read more
Delicious and succulent meats -- not for vegetarians – I've been to Pera twice -- once for a work event and once for a birthday celebration. Both times, I thoroughly enjoyed the food and atmosphere. I ordered the Pera tradition -- which is a smorgasboard of different meats such as chicken, lamb and beef flavored with a various Turkish spices. Being a meat lover myself, I thought the meats were quite tasty and juicy. The spices coated the meats with a flavor completely unfound at most other restaurants I usually frequent, and... read more
Best Mediterranean Grilled Meats and More – I have been frequenting this restaurant ever since they opened last fall; I believe it has filled a much needed gap for an upscale restaurant with a friendly atmosphere in this part of town. The food is absolutely delicious. I especially like the grilled meats that are, one of the previous reviewers said, juicy and flavorful. From what I can tell the grilled ground lamb, Adana, is their signature dish and I would recommend that you give it a try even if you are not usually a lamb p... read more
What Midtown Needed- Finally a good restaurant! – If you work midtown or go to Madison Ave for shopping on weekends, you know there are not too many places to eat - let alone good food! Pera fills this huge gap in midtown area by offering: Good food, nice ambiance, friendly wait staff..what else can you expect from a good NY dining experience? The Open Kitchen is a plus. Once you try the beef / lamb dishes, you will see the difference between the quality of meet here vs other restaurants. Definetely try the special Turkish i... read more
Turkish Delight – As a gourmet New Yorker, it is not often that I can commend a newcomer without a "but", but..... for Pera, I can certainly make an exception. Even though it has only been a few months since it first opened, Pera has already reached perfection, and it is hard to imagine it can get any better than this. The food is phenomenal; the atmosphere is stylish yet unpretentious and the staff is surely the friendliest bunch of people I have encountered on Madison Avenue so far. I have already been there five times in ... read more
A succession of Mediterranean and Turkish tastes presented with abundance fit for a sultan. – The Scene An offshoot of a popular Istanbul restaurant, the boisterous brasserie can feel as busy as the Grand Bazaar at times, with service periodically getting lost in the chaos. Earth tones and natural elements earmark the decor, with stone, tile, wood and leather in dominance. A zebrawood communal bar table in the front offers an eye-catching, sociable centerpiece for cocktails, while the open kitchen at the rear tosses tantaliz... read more
