Question about Per Se (Restaurant) in New York City?
Chris
This question is for anyone who has ever eaten at Per Se in Columbus Circle, NYC:
I will be traveling to NYC with a medium-sized party in a few days, and I would really like to treat everyone to dinner at Per Se. I went to the website and saw that the restaurant has three menus: A "Vegetable Tasting" menu ($275), a "Chef's Tasting" Menu ($275), and a salon menu (a la carte). Since the party I am traveling with is a decently sized one, the Vegetable Tasting and Chef's Tasting Menus are out of the question. However, I would like to go and eat off the salon menu. Will we be able to order food off the Salon menu at dinner time? If so, will we need to indicate that we will not be eating from the Tasting menus when I make the reservation?
Thanks in advance for answering my question.
Answer
I've eaten there and can answer your question.
The Salon is outside the main dining room, doesn't accept/require reservations and has about 5 or 6 separately spaced tables that each seat (and feed) 4 people easily. This number can increase by a few people if the staff pulls up chairs, but people would probably have to eat off their laps at that point. The menu is ala carte, you pick each dish separately. I really like the salon, I'd call and ask if you have more than 4 people, to see what they can do.
If you call and make a reservation you will be sat in the main dining room, and you'll have your choice of 2 menu's for dinner ($275/pp) - no salon menu available.
Perhaps you want to book for lunch, it only costs $175 pp (this includes service, so more like $145pp)? You can also look into booking the (up to 10 people) private dining room if you have enough people.
