Famous for its selection of butcher-fresh Prime beef, dry-aged in house for 28 days, Perry’s is also known for its specialty, Perry’s Famous Pork Chop, which is dried, cured and roasted, then caramelized and topped with Perry’s signature Herb-Garlic butter.

At Bar 79, floor-to-ceiling windows will frame the view and can be opened for an open-air lounge experience. The new open design of the restaurant will feature glimpses into the kitchen for diners to take a peek at the chefs preparing each dish.
