"We visited on 10-18-2025: The Perennial is a cozy, idyllic hidden gem located in the Forest Park area of Montgomery. From the moment you step through the door, you feel as if you stepped back in time. Every aspect of this restaurant is unique and thoughtfully designed…right down to the wallpaper and the way they bring your check to you. The ambiance is relaxing, and it feels as if you are having Sunday dinner at your grandparents home. The ingredients used are locally sourced from area farmers and producers. The menu changes frequently so you can go often and have a different experience every time. You can tell the chef is committed to quality and ensuring that diners have an unparalleled experience. All of the flavors complement each other and everything pairs well. The service is exceptional, and you’re made to feel as if you are having a personally catered experience. Every detail has a purpose and care is taken to preserve a space in time, while protecting the plant. I can’t say enough about this place. Do yourself a favor and go now!"

"Visiting Perennial restaurant was an absolute delight—my first time there, and it exceeded every expectation. My wife had dined there shortly after it opened and found it merely okay, but when we returned together a few months later, she was blown away by the remarkable transformation from solid to spectacular. The space itself is stunningly beautiful, with impeccable service, a warm and inviting ambience, and dishes bursting with flavor and creativity. You can truly feel the passion poured into every detail. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a memorable meal."

"Perennial rates as one of our top dining experiences. It was our wedding anniversary and we looked for someplace special while visiting in Montgomery AL. We would rarely spend $$$ at a restaurant but we were thrilled that we did for this occasion. A real gem in farm-to-table dining. The menu changes seasonally. The sourcing Alabama farms are listed on the menu. Even cocktails made with locally sourced liquors and ingredients! Sophia and Marshall were warm, welcoming hosts with the perfect amount of conversation."

"Perennial was ok. I didn't quite understand the theme but after talking to the owner I kinda get, perennial means Eve lasting and all materials in the store are locally sources and reused including silver wear. I the food is southern themed and the ambiance is forestry themed. Not really my style but I did enjoy something different. I love the city of Montgomery Alabama, and I love that this restaurant is here."

"Hosted a corporate holiday luncheon at Perennial. We were a small group of 18, and it was a wonderful, cozy atmosphere. It is so hard to find a place for a group like this in town and working with Deanne and her team was a breeze. She worked with me on the menu and any dietary restrictions in advance. Everyone raved about the food and it was nice to be able sit and chat with your team and actually hear everyone! We took care of all the details in advance, so we just had to show up, relax, and enjoy. I have been here personally for dinner many times and the food and drink are top notch. Highly recommend for small, private gatherings and cozy nights out with friends."
