    Everything was fantastic, highly recommend! On a side note, probably not controlled by the restaurant, the valet was not so good. 
    PERL by Chef IPResponded on May 21, 2025
    Thank you for the great feedback and recommendation—we’re glad to hear you had a fantastic experience! Regarding the valet, we understand the frustration and want to note that it’s operated independently by the private event space on the fourth floor of our building. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with the appropriate team. Looking forward to welcoming you back!

    Our first time dining at PERL while visiting Miami for the weekend. Rigatoni pasta was delicious, paired with NY stripe - great flavors! We ordered charred broccoli but had to ask if it could be charred logger because it came out undercooked and a bit dry. Turned out good after the extra char and added more chilli oil. The A/C also had the restaurant very cold, which gets uncomfortable if you’re not layered. Nothing major, we will definitely be back in the future
    PERL by Chef IPResponded on May 21, 2025
    Thank you for dining with us during your visit to Miami and for sharing your thoughtful feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the rigatoni and NY strip, and we appreciate your note about the broccoli—we’re always happy to make adjustments to ensure everything arrives to your liking. We’ve also noted your comment about the A/C and will keep that in mind for guest comfort. Looking forward to welcoming you back again soon.

    One complaint Too noisy because there are only hard surfaces and nothing to absorb sound. Difficult to have an intimate conversation.
    PERL by Chef IPResponded on May 13, 2025
    Thank you for the thoughtful review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the food—it truly means a lot. We also appreciate your note on the noise level. Creating a comfortable atmosphere is important to us, and we're currently working on adding sound-absorbing elements to help with that. We appreciate your patience and hope to welcome you back soon

    I found the noise level inside very uncomfortable and loud. It was difficult to have a conversation with the person across the table from me.
    PERL by Chef IPResponded on April 24, 2025
    Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the noise level affected your experience. We’re currently in the process of installing paneling to help improve the acoustics and create a more comfortable dining environment. We appreciate your patience and hope to welcome you back soon
