"Amazing food, Amazing Service, we had the Calamari, Cheese sticks, Stuffed Grape Leaves were the best I've ever had. Hummus was yummy, we had the Gyro Sandwich hands down the best ever and stuffed! For desert we had the amazing Rice Pudding OMG perfection! makes your knees weak. Also took 3 Baklava home! Delicious! Cannot wait to return!"

"The food here is phenomenal, some of the best hummus I have ever had! It is byob but there is a giant that has beer and wine, and another beer store within a block of Pera. Service here was great, and it never was too busy. The perfect amount of hustle and bustle. Staff here was super accommodating. Get the Chicken Beyti! So so so good!"

"A few friends referred this restaurant to me since I was in the neighborhood, and they spoke highly of it. When I entered the establishment; the staff were very welcoming and pleasant. They caught me looking at the Don̈er like a turkish cat 😋 😆 🤣 Their menu offers a wide variety of Turkish cuisine; some which made me miss my grandfather dearly. I recommend dining in to see the beautifully plated dishes, and experiencing the beautiful turkish hospitality. Their menu is well executed, wait time was brief, their establishment was well organized and cleanliness seemed like a number 1 priority. Unfortunately I was on my lunch break, so I had to grab my food to go. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant for family/ friend gatherings, business meetings, study groups, and picking up a quick bite."

"Great service, delicious food, nice hospitality. Our server, Hilmi, was super friendly and genuine, you just have to let him know what you need and he makes sure your expectations are met. We loved Arnavut cigeri, kunefe, and kazan dibi were very successful ."

"Pera is a cozy BYOB serving Turkish cuisine with outdoor seating available as well! We came on a Saturday night and got a seat with no wait - I believe it’s walk ins only. We started with the hummus and pita. Pita was just how I like it, soft and pillowy. It’s not paper thin or too hard. The hummus was smooth and creamy, a great addition to add to other items throughout the meal. Since this was our first time here, we wanted to stick with the basics. We got the mixed grill which had gyro meat, chicken & lamb with tomatoes, onions, peppers & rice. The chicken, with a bite of the green pepper, onion, rice & add hummus was such a delicious bite. The green pepper had a little kick and the onion had a sweetness. The only criticism I had was the lamb was just okay, but I usually prefer chicken to lamb so its likely a personal preference. As a fry connoisseur, I have to try them everywhere I go. These had some type of spice on them, but they desperately needed salt. They also weren’t very crispy. I wouldn’t order them again. Service was attentive and helpful. The dishes came out very fast too. Overall, we had a great first experience here trying some of the standard dishes. We definitely want to come back for lunch and try their sandwiches or gyros!"
