Great to sit outside on a patio in Soho and a meal can be combined with all that that Soho can throw. Good food.. strange that they ask for the "full" order at once given you generally want to graze on all their Maze.

I’ve been here a few times and this time was awful. The waitress rushed us to order, didn’t come back nearly enough and my dish was forgotten. By the time I got it, everyone’s meals were finished and my chicken was undercooked.

We were sat on a table right on the street next to moving cars that were heckling at us and they began cleaning our table off and took our drinks before we were ready to go. They were rude from the second I approached the hostess stand. Our server did her best but overall the feedback is one that for a business and not individual performance. Also having to ask for more water and not be proactively given it to a table of 7 so I recommend bringing your own bottle of water at that point.

I enjoyed the outdoor dining experience at this restaurant. The tables were well-spaced, and didn't feel jammed on top of one another as it can in other outdoor-seating restaurant spaces. The portions were slightly small, but the food was delicious. Service was great, I will definitely return.

The food was excellent. A very fun vibe outside, even on a Monday at 6pm. I felt a little bit rushed by the waiter. He seemed like he wanted to get us in and out, which for the price, wasn't expected.

Overall most dishes were just fine, nothing super amazing, but nothing too bad either. The dip sampler was quite good, the hummus and labneh one were my favorite. I typically like my food a bit saltier, but even then, Pera Soho had enough salt to give me a heart attack. The chips for the dip were way over seasoned, but still edible. The potatoes that came with my eggs Benedict were inedible. I had to scrape the salt off of each piece, or else I would not be able to eat any of it. The simple side salad was also extremely over-dressed. It was a nice ambiance, and we had 10 people, so I appreciated them accommodating us with the large room.

I usually enjoy Pera, however yesterday my experience was not amazing. The outside area was extremely dark and the the big fans were giving too much wind on our food that got immediately cold. My food was never cleared from in front of me, even while I was paying the check, my empty plats were still there, and they rushed us out of the restaurant very rudely.

Perfect for dinner. The ambience was great and service was superb. We tried most of the appetizers which were all a hit. The two vegetables specials of asparagus and crispy Brussels sprouts were superb… we actually ordered a second portion of the sprouts they were so good. The mains were a bit more hit and miss, we tried the gnocchi special with was just ok, the blackened salmon was slightly over but pretty good and the mussels were yummy. Cocktails were a hit, we tried most of the ones on the menu but also opted for some spicy margaritas to pep things up. We would definitely go back again

Location and the ambiance was great! The food and drinks were good as well. Only issue was our server. She was very nice but wasn’t attentive at all and we constantly had to be asking for someone else to get her to assist us. We even had to bring the check up to the front because it was taking too long for her to come back. The restaurant was not busy either as we were dining early. Would still come back as everything else was great but they should consider hiring someone else.
