    A visit to Pera on Madison Avenue never disappoints. First of all - there is absolute consistency here - in the food and service. And the prices are moderate - not crazy like so many mid town restaurants. Service - top notch. I often choose the Garden Salad with Chicken Brochette or a lamb dish. Either/or - the meat is tasty and tender. Great job Team Pera!

    Great food, service and “ambiance” outdoors. Too loud inside for a 1pm lunch seating.

    Great happy hour (but available only at the bar). Other cocktails were okay. Need large ice cubes for old fashioned versus small ones that water down.

    The food was not stale, the restaurant and service was good. We came in when it was empty so maybe it would be different on busy day.
