Perry's, for nearly 40 years an institution in San Francisco, is known for its classic American food, its warm personable service and its bustling bar. Perry's menu includes a wide variety of sandwiches, creative salads, pastas, steaks, and grilled fresh fish, in addition to the renowned Perry's hamburger. Perry's opened amidst the heyday of San Francisco's hippie scene. The restaurant was an instant success and soon became one of the city's most popular gathering spots. Perry's trademark touches include mahogany-paneled walls adorned with memorabilia, tile ceilings evocative of stamped tin, white tile floor, blue-and-white checkered tablecloths, and, above all, high quality food served with warmth and friendship.
