Below expectations
Sunday, March 05, 2006
Unfortunately, we set the bar way too high for Perry Str. 15 mins after arriving, we spoke with the hostess, who told us a table was eating dessert and would be opening up shortly. 1 hour later, we were still waiting...think dessert was confused with appetizers: STRIKE ONE.
Once we were finally seated, we were put in a strategically located table right next to the door. In a display of pure architectural genius, the 2 sets of doors directly open up to the west side highway. Watching the staff try to prevent the wind from affecting the ambience was both highly comical and ineffective. My wife had to wear her winter jacket while we surveyed the menus: STRIKE TWO.
In line with the rest of the experience, the cuisine was subpar, as was the service: STRIKE THREE!
Pros: Coat check, Not our last meal, Like being robbed
Cons: Reservation what?, Food/Service, Location
