In the world of upscale dining, Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille has become an absolute legend. It all began 44 years back as a cozy butcher shop and deli, until Chris Perry approached his father with a brilliant vision for a restaurant. Perry’s quickly transformed into a culinary haven that serves up nothing but the finest steaks, freshest seafood, exquisite wines, fun cocktails, and of course, “Perry’s Famous Pork Chop,” which is an absolute showstopper.

What Does The “Perry’s Twist” Mean Anyway?

There are numerous steakhouses throughout the nation, but not a single one does it quite like Perry’s. Many of the classic favorites found at most fine-dining restaurants are available at Perry’s, but always with their own special spin on the offerings. This is what loyal patrons have come to adore as the “Perry’s Twist.” Here are 8 mouthwatering examples!

#1 Steak & Seafood Apps

The Steak & Tater Totter Bites are a one-of-a-kind steakhouse appetizer with homemade tater totters, topped with shaved filet mignon, garlic aioli, and diced chives. This makes for the perfect single bite of “Steak & Potato” with the Perry’s twist! You also can’t go wrong ordering the Tempura Fried Lobster. Most lobster comes with melted drawn butter, but at Perry’s, it’s served with a side of Miso Butter.

PRO-TIP: For the ultimate steak appetizer experience, try the acclaimed New York Strip Flight allowing the entire table to sample a trio of Texas Kobe-style Wagyu, Nebraska Prime Certified Angus, and the most marbled beef in the world, True Japanese A-5 Wagyu Beef.

#2 Wedge Salad

Almost everybody loves a good wedge salad, yet while most steakhouses only offer a traditional presentation with blue cheese dressing, Perry’s dresses their Signature Wedge in a delectable Buttermilk Vinaigrette. The iceberg lettuce itself is featured in a delicious wheel-cut, served face-up to catch the dressing within the layers of lettuce and ensure more flavor in every bite. Trust us, guests simply cannot get enough of this one.

#3 Steaks

Every Perry’s tender steak is hand-cut that day and sizzled to perfection under an infrared broiler at a blazing 1800 degrees, topped with Perry’s Signature Steak Butter for ideal caramelization on a delicately seared crust. Hungry diners get to choose their preferred beef, including True Japanese A-5 Wagyu beef, Texas Kobe-style Wagyu beef, USDA-aged PRIME Angus, and Certified Upper Choice beef. Each steak can even be customized with one of 15 unique styles, sauces, or toppers, like Bacon Marmalade & Bleu or topped with a succulent crab cake.

“Consumers value convenience, and the concept of a great cocktail in the convenience of a can was a fantastic idea. But what the market gave us instead were low quality diet mocktails. We understand there’s a buyer for low calorie, low ABV beverages,” CEO Josh Sanders admits, “but we have also never seen anyone order a cocktail at a bar, and ask how many calories are in it. There is more than one consumer to serve here. Buyers are graduating from cheap seltzers to discover they can have a real craft quality cocktail that goes anywhere. That’s our customer, and that’s our mandate”.

#4 Chateaubriand

If you’ve never tried Chateaubriand, prepare to indulge in premium center-cut filet mignon that is fit for royalty. Originating in the 19th century, Chateaubriand was traditionally always prepared for two people. However, Perry’s version is an individual serving carved tableside on a warm cast iron plate, served with a trio of exquisite sauces, including Truffle Merlot Demiglace (rich and earthy), Bearnaise (creamy and buttery), and a Peppercorn Reduction (bold and zesty). The dish is also paired with a classic steak side, steamed asparagus.

#5 Surf & Turf

When you think of Surf & Turf, the classic filet and lobster combo may come to mind, and while Perry’s does offer that classic combo, their menu boasts an array of innovative choices as well. Take the Symphony Kabob, for instance; it’s a captivating, hanging tableside presentation featuring chargrilled shrimp, succulent lobster, and filet mignon, accompanied by two delectable sauces.

The Surf & Turf Pasta consists of angel hair pasta tossed in a tomato basil sauce, then topped with filet mignon tips and 2 oz. of fresh lobster. If you’re a crab lover, the Filet Perry is wrapped with applewood-smoked bacon and jumbo lump crabmeat. And don’t forget about the Filet Three Ways, medallions where one is topped Oscar-style with crab, another with 3-peppercorn au poivre, and the final one coffee-crusted.

#6 Potatoes

Potatoes are a staple at steakhouses, yet Perry’s has combined two favorites – whipped potatoes with a loaded baked potato. The result? Loaded Whipped Potatoes, ensuring all of the comfort flavors can sing together in harmony with every bite. This side for two is a massive source of adoration among Perry’s regulars.

#7 Cheesecake

Steakhouses are traditionally known for cheesecake – now get ready for the Perry’s Twist once again. Their popular slate of specialty cheesecakes are rotated out seasonally and add an additional layer of flavor. Pumpkin Cheesecake, the current fall special, is made over a pecan gingersnap crust and has vanilla cream as its extra layer, then gets finished with a salted caramel drizzle. In previous seasons, the Orange Vanilla Cheesecake with sliced candied oranges and sweet gelee in the middle is also to die for. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, save room until the dessert menu comes.

PRO-TIP: Even if you love cheesecake, consider another favorite everywhere – bread pudding. At Perry’s, the Rocky Road Bread Pudding is packed with butterscotch and chocolate chips, then covered in toasted homemade marshmallow and candied walnuts. Try this dish, and you won’t be disappointed.

#8 Classic Cocktails with a Twist

Celebrated for their exceptional wine cellar, make sure to explore the delightful bar menu as well. Mixologists at Perry’s are absolute craftsmen/women when it comes to their handcrafted cocktails. Take Perry’s Hog-Hattan, which gives the taste buds something to celebrate. Turning the original Manhattan on its head, this delightful beverage blends WhistlePig PiggyBack 6-year-old rye and Vya vermouth, rimmed with brown sugar and Perry’s Signature Homemade Barbecue Sauce, then garnished with a skewer of Perry’s Famous Pork Chop Bites and Luxardo cherries. Order one…and then another!
