Was there for the Friday Lunch Pork Chop special. As always the pork chop and sides were fantastic. Service is always on point and iced tea was brewed to perfection. Because of the special, front lobby and whole restaurant was very busy and seating felt tight. Overall tho, I would definitely go back again as no one delivers a pork chop like Perry’s and at $19 it’s a bargain!
