Reviews for Perly's in Richmond, VA
The staff is friendly and the food was great. Fresh and tasty. Would definitely eat here again. The wait was long, so I'd call... ahead. I got the schnitzel and potato salad. Loved it! They also have stevia for your drip coffee which I appreciate. Read more
Visited Richmond just so we could come here after seeing it on Diner's, Drive-ins, and Dives and we were not disappointed!... Service was very friendly and quick despite the constant rush of people. Ordered several appetizers just to try as many thingsas possible and all of them were great. The Jewish egg rolls in particular were incredible. Read more
Perly's is touted as a must visit place when visiting Richmond - all those people are right. Great deli, like pick this up and... drop it in NYC and it fits perfectly. Weekday breakfast visit for us. Service was great, menu packed full of deli choices. Thecoffee is really good, local roaster provides the coffee. I ordered the cinnamon babka French toast and let me tell you it'ssome portion (pictured). Delicious! My wife went basic bagel lox cream cheese which were excellent as well. I love the decorand the booths. Most definitely worth the effort to seek this place out. Read more
Good food but service was not good. I got the Jewish Sailor. The meats were very tender, the sausage was super juicy and the... Cole slaw was nice and creamy (not sweet). The fries are terrific. Unfortunately, after my food was brought to the table noone checked on me until it was time for the check. Overall I would return because the food was great. Read more
Perly's was incredibly busy which I think is the norm. Multiple people waiting outside on the sidewalk is common. The diner is... vintage with the tables/booths very close together. We were lucky to sit at the counter. Great fun to see the action along thecounter. The food is very good although I think the Jewbano is good, but a little excessive so if you have a tendency forheartburn, you should consider something else. Next time a bagel platter is definitely on tap. Service was great! Will be backto try other items on the menu! Read more
Fantastic. We somehow happened upon an episode of diners drive ins and dives the first night we got to Richmond. We tuned in... halfway through the episode and were drawn in by the duck perogies on screen. We got incredibly lucky and realized not only wasthis restaurant in Richmond but it was less than half a mile from our hotel. They were out of the perogies when we came, whichwas a bummer, but we'll be back to try! The service was friendly and quick and the food was fantastic. Everything we tried wasamazing. The Benny Goodman was crispy and flavorful and exceeded my already high expectations. The egg rolls were unreal! Andthe sauces were delicious as well. We loved it and will be back soon to try more of the menu Read more
As if Perly's needs any more kudos? I happened upon the restaurant randomly... with no clue that its pedigree is so renowned.... You know what that means? With no preconceptions, I believe my review is all the more objective... And so, from the moment Iwalked in, I was charmed by the decor. From there, the creative menu made it clear this wasn't "just another breakfast." I wentwith the corned beef hash w/ 2 eggs over easy... OH HELL YES! My main course was utterly divine, served with side greens and apiece of bread to help soak up the egg yolks... It was only after I had dined here and did a little research that I realizedPerly's is a Richmond institution... well deserved. PS: Service was impeccable. Read more
This place was cool! Long wait (like all Richmond brunch) and somewhat slow service, but very kind staff. Good vibes all around!... I enjoyed the brunch options, only a few "typical" breakfast items. I had the Benny Goodman, like Eggs Benedict but on latkeswith smoked salmon. Prices are reasonable. Would come back! Read more
