Refined ambiance and decor make it a perfect place for business lunch in Grand Central area. Also a good spot to share delicious lavash chips and hummus with friends, and enjoy a good bottle of wine . Read more

Tash Concepcion

A perfect place for a business lunch or dinner but it gets really loud . The Pera Twists and Chicken Brochette are very good. The chicken is very moist and tender in both dishes.

Harri M-men

We had the burger and the gnocchi as well as the dark choc soufflé - all very delicious. The service is friendly and the ambient is good. Not blowing your mind, but good value for money for a dinner .

Danley Hu

A really neat wine and dine Mediterranean restaurant . I love their lamb dishes . They also make a perfect grilled salmon . The fried calamari and fries are also delicious.

James Kiernan

Great option for healthy business lunch . Start off with the trio dip - spicy pepper ‘muammara’ was my fav. If you’re like me and prefer your salad without lettuce, order the village salad . Enjoy! ????????

Olga Eps

The adena kebabs are great (appetizer and main versions). The grape leaves , as well as the mezes are a good order. Wine selection is pretty nice

Rebecca Yi

Came for restaurant week lunch . Great value - really good portions for a prix fixe menu . Place gets packed during lunch so make reservations !

Roger Schonfeld

The food is great. We enjoyed the hummus with pastrami and the calamari appetizers , and the lamb Adana was delicious.

Steve Herrera

Power lunch , or happy hour , Pera hits the spot. It's a bit loud but not so bad you can't hear what your party is saying. It's a nice "exotic " alternative to your typical Bar and Grill options.

The sujouk lollipop and baba ganouh appetizer is awesome, don't miss the adana kebab ????

Mischa

Have a lunch interview/meeting? This is a really good place to go, perfectly located in the middle of the Midtown

Try the Pera Trio to start and definitely have the Mediterranean fries . The squid was lacking. The service was surprisingly poor.

Murat Ülker

The atmosphere is just like Beyoglu/Istanbul, the food is great and delicious.

Geno C.

Go on a Tuesday or Friday night and hang by the bar . You'll be entertained by Danny the bartender-funny guy and makes a good sidecar. :-)

Jordan Stovall

The fried artichoke hearts and lamb Adana apps were amazing! Scallops cooked just right, brussel sprout accompanying them was a bit weird. Stay away from the pepper side unless you are masochistic.

Silene Lim

I love the lamb chops , and the three dips as the appetizer .

Melody Ewing

Warm hummus + watermelon and feta salad + pastirma wrapped dates. Yes, yes and yes.

Steve Roberts

The lamb burger is great, Kale Salad with lamb bacon mmmmmm

Madhu Suresh

The Adanas are heavenly! Must try!

Restaurant week lunch menu through Labor Day. It was delicious. Try the tacos and the lamb salad

This is a lovely place, but the hostess needs to get her act together. The bartender , Dan, is fantastic.

Craig Thompson

Everything I tried here was tasty.

Popular overpriced business lunch spot . Good grilled octopus

Craig Thompson

Try the Toasted Desembread with Turkish saussage and feta cheese

Roger Schonfeld

The service was mediocre. Frustrating that they were "out" of wines we wanted. And the captain was extremely rude to us in complaining about the tip we left. I have been before but will not return.

Craig Thompson

Try the Smoked Lamb Eggs Benedict - Amazing

Adam Lang

Ask to speak to the GM Paul...he will take care of you.

JoEllen Lynn

Poor service really ruined our evening. The $49 family style tasting menu isnt worth it. Too bad most of the food was good.

Tara Moser

believe the hype, the hummus is amazing.

Burcu Gnc

Mediterranean food done right, the roasted whipped eggplant is worth an order.

Service was very slow for dinner . More of a lunch place.

Stick with the small plates & appetizers - they're amazing.
