It was a wonderful meal! Service was amazing and friendly, the food was so good. They’ve still got some Per Se classics and honestly, they don’t feel aged at all. The staff are all ready to talk, but also know when to walk away. The bourbon milk punch was so good, as well! This place is generally out of my budget, but if I were to dine for a special occasion again, I would definitely come back. I took the worst photos in the world, unfortunately.

A memorable meal with family before Christmas. We celebrated my mom’s 70th birthday while dining as well. This was our second visit to Per Se and it was consistent with my first visit. While I wasn’t blown away this time, the dishes were executed with high degree of skill and technique. This visit just felt average in terms of the menu making an impression. For the price tag I feel like there needs to be a bigger wow factor. The service is impeccable though! I would definitely recommend dining here for a splurge and a special treat.

Per Se impressed me, I ordered the Evolution Menu which came with 19 courses. I found the range of tastes, flavoures throughout the dining experience to be considerate, with culinary ideas on the bolder side. The service was exceptional also, and the location if you can get a window seat overlooking Colombus Circle is very enjoyable also.

An unforgettable dining experience at Per Se, and one that truly lives up to every one of its three Michelin stars.

From the moment you step into the main dining room, you’re immersed in elegance, a beautiful, serene setting overlooking the park, elevated further by the warm glow of the fireplace that creates an inviting and refined ambiance.

The tasting menu offered both vegetarian and meat/fish options. I chose the vegetarian menu, and it was hands down the most delicious tasting menu I’ve had in a long time. Every dish was thoughtful, balanced, and impeccably executed. The mushroom pie was absolutely out of this world- a luxurious blend of exotic mushrooms, seared to perfection, rich yet incredibly refined. The Doppio Agnolotti with butternut squash emulsion and chestnut confit was a standout as well, a flawless combination of sweetness, depth, and texture.

The meat menu was equally impressive. The perfectly seared Mediterranean Lubina and the delicately cooked farmed venison showcased remarkable technique and flavor, leaving nothing to be desired.

Service elevated the experience even further. Samantha, our server, was exceptional- warm, attentive, and impressively knowledgeable about every dish, making the meal feel both personal and seamless.

Per Se is truly worthy of each and every star. A flawless culinary journey from start to finish, and an experience I will remember for a long time to come.

Background
Per Se is synonymous with a rigorously precise, French inspired tasting menu experience. Even its shorter menus are designed to reflect the full philosophy of the kitchen rather than serve as a compromise.

Ambience
The dining room is dimly lit and serene. While we were not seated in the main dining hall, our table faced the New York skyline, which added a cinematic calm to the evening. The space felt formal yet not stiff, elegant without intimidation.

Service
Service was impeccable and precise. Staff were attentive without hovering and thoughtful without excess. The presence of a vegetarian menu executed with equal seriousness deserves special praise.

Food and drink
The four course menu was skilfully crafted and coherent from start to finish. Each plate showed restraint and clarity. The true revelation was the dessert course. It was a masterpiece of balance and whimsy, arguably the most compelling and memorable sequence of the meal. It is one of the best if not the best dessert. Kudos

Overall
Per Se proves that greatness is not dependent on length or spectacle. Even a shorter menu delivers depth, confidence and emotional payoff.

As a flagship 3-star establishment, Per Se sets the global industry standard for culinary and service excellence. I brought my family here for a special occasion, and it was a flawless experience. Absolutely worth the price for a life event.

The Expert Perspective: My mother was a restaurateur in China, and even as a non-expert in French cuisine, she was shocked by the service execution. She noted that the team’s proactive attention to detail and synchronization are incredibly difficult to train—it is near flawless and justifies the prestige.

The Food: While the standard tasting menu is excellent, the culinary technicality is world-class. The flavors and presentation perfectly reflect the level of precision expected of Chef Keller. I’ve met people at luxury hotels worldwide who still talk about their proposals or milestone meals here; it’s a place for core memories.

I hope to return in the near future for the “Retrospective” menu, which features the all-star signature dishes that defined the restaurant over the last 20 years.

Per Se? Directly in from of Central Park? A horse ride after dinner? We love Per Se ! ! Delicious, classy, elegant & romance by the fireplace. Excellent food. Excellent service. Beautiful ambiance & location. We had the tasters menu & what a delight it was! Per Se is well deserving of its 3 star Michelin rating! Could Per Se be a candidate or reason a new 4 Star system is created?Orrrr, was that the reason for Michelin removing 1 star from Per Se’s neighbor? Masa… Hmmmmm. We shall find out! We highly recommend Per Se!

I can’t imagine a much more opulent and elegant way to welcome the New Year. It is said, that you should welcome the new year in the way you would like your Year to be. Cheers to being off to a magnificent start! We also decided to do the recommended wine pairing which was a fantastic choice! Each dish was artfully created.
Admittedly, one of my favorite aspects was the very thoughtfully curated gift bag we were sent home with. What a treat to enjoy on New Year’s Day! The gift that keeps giving!

We celebrated a birthday at Per Se two years ago and absolutely loved the experience. For some reason, I never wrote a review until now — but it truly deserves one. The techniques were impressive, and the ingredients were of the highest quality. The finale with the dessert table was unforgettable!

That said, the restaurant itself could use a renovation — the carpets and overall décor feel a bit outdated and don’t quite match the level of a modern fine dining restaurant. Still, the food remains absolutely fantastic.

Thank you to the team for such a memorable evening! Highly recommend.

I feel truly honoured to have had the pleasure of dining at this fine establishment. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with hospitality and were sat immediately (no wait at the door). Every little detail of this place was special. The delicious food, the impeccable wine pairings and world-class service makes this place an absolute stand out. I have been fortunate enough to dine at many Michelin star restaurants all over the world, but this place will always have a special place in my heart. It truly does deserve its 3 Michelin star rating! We left happily full from our meal, and they even packaged our dessert course for us to enjoy later at home. Thank you so much for the incredible experience and for making myself and my guest feel so welcomed. 10/10 highly recommend.
