The ribs are indeed 'fall off the bone', they are spectacular. Might not jump out as a rib joint, but this is as good as it gets. Pizza is dynamite, always has fresh toppings, , love the pizza buffet at lunch, let's me try all sorts of toppings I otherwise wouldn't order. Dine in service is speedy, yet pleasant. My friend loved the wings, kept asking how they were buy only rec'd grumbles while working every bit of meat off the bones. Price is right, quality superb - and would be a great place to take the family.

I live just blocks away from Perry's and wrote if off years ago. THEN, I got a gift card to Perry's and decided to give them another chance. I am so glad I did. First off, they have recently renovated their restaurant, and the dining space is fabulous. Warm, Cozy and really appropriate to the style of service (pub/pizz food) and area (lots of families/casual). On top of this my family was seated and attended to by a very conscientious waitress from the get-go. This always puts us in a good mood. Gettin' that glass of wine early always makes me happy! We chose pizza and some wrap sandwiches. All was very tasty, and my kids loved the wraps. I am not a big fan of thin crust pizza, but I lost the vote and that is what my table ordered....and it was very good for thin. Very crispy and lots of veges and sausage. I am kind of sad we did not get the ribs, though, since the table next door did, and I smelled them during my whole meal -- they smelled great! But that just means I'm going back, which I am most definitely looking forward to. Thanks Perry's!

Pretty good pizza. My girlfriend and I had this last night with a bottle of wine and we were both satisfied with it. The sausage was big and tasty and there was just the right amount of sauce on the pizza. The delivery was hot and fast. I will be ordering from this place again.

I recently started living in Park Ridge (long story- living in grandma's old house until I finish grad school- I will be back in Chicago Chicago soon) My dad grew up in PR and told me I had to have Perry's. It was the best.And you get a nice 1960's feeling about the place. Ahhhhh, the good ole days!

Beer nuggets are a different thing to have on a menu. Had to try them because the were a staple food of where my wife went to college. All it is is fried dough with marinara. Surprisingly pretty damn good. Along with their thin crust pizza it was pretty good. They have some good weekly specials. The 2 times I have been in there the staff has been very friendly. Yes there are probably some better pizza places in the area but Perry's offers a lot more on their menu. Might try their ribs next.

Perry's is awesome. You can't beat the neighborhood joint where the owner will get to know you by first name if you go more than once. The hot wing dinner with garlic bread is a tasty treat that mainstream restaurants cannot duplicate. Also, if you go to a rib joint and order seafood you are probably not going to get good food (comment below).

Ahh, Perry's. Beer Nuggets. I had my first pepperoni pizza here when I was a wee lad. I still come back for the beer nuggets. And the pepperoni pizza. I think their sauce has gotten a little too sweet in the last few years, but it's still very tasty. Probably one of my favorites in the PR area, next to Lou's, of course.

I ordered delivery from here during a weekend and they were very nice. Not sounding like a sad robot like some other places over the phone. Not at all. That was a heart warming experience. I ordered some fried calamari and an Italian beef deluxe which included cole slaw and fries. I was gonna order a cannoli but I forgot! I wanted to see how that was.. They quoted me 45 minutes but they showed up within 30. So super cool. So here's where it sadly went down hill. I don't know if the driver was racing around hardcore but when I opened my order.. coleslaw dressing was dripping everywhere. So I had to plate everything. That's just great! now I have to wash dishes!! The order of fried calamari for 8.49 was teeny tiny! Enough for about 1 person or 1 person and 1 small child... like in the 4 yr old range. As for the calamari.. they are tiny rings but nicely battered and the calamari wasn't dried out and you don't get any heads and tentacles for those of you that aren't into that shit. The cole slaw was very bland, I threw that one out. The semi saving grace would be the fries which were kinda soggy! Oh mama likes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the italian beef was eh ok. but ugh. I should of just went to Portillo's. It sure doesn't pay to be lazy. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza in the midwest so there'd be no point for me to order from here again if I was in the area. What a waste of 23 bucks. UGH. dead to me.

I ordered an Italian beef (with Mozzarella, cheese, onions, pepperoni, and peppers). Delivery and service was good. The sandwich was very bland. The fries were average. It's OK.

A nice neighborhood restaurant. It's in a beautiful space lovingly maintained so the ambiance is great. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kitchen is slow, but that's my only complaint. The salads, sandwiches, and pizzas are quite nice. I haven't tried the pastas or ribs yet but I don't doubt they are just as good. The food is not "as good as it gets" but it is good, wholesome fare. They have beer and wine, mostly the standard selections but there are a couple of real brews. My wife and I like this place and will keep coming back. Several reviewers who apparently are mostly interested in being snarkily witty have panned Perry's, but they are missing out - don't believe them or you'll miss out too on a lovely neighborhood diner.

I've had pretty much everything on the menus and it never disappoints. Delivery is quick and professional. I highly recommend the Thai Chicken Salad and the pizza. The toppings are always really fresh and tasty.

I had been going to Perry's for years then moved to Southern California. Recently went and the place is still great. The ribs are fall off the bone and the thin crust pizza is delicious. I've had friends try other things on the menu and be disappointed so stick with the pizza and ribs.

Our company has been ordering from Perry's for years now. Incredible pizza from Park Ridge, this place has a menu where every item is great! Try their incredible ribs, the tasty wings and their amazing panzarottis too! You will not be disappointed! Also, if you need an event catered, these guys have got you covered. We have had Perry's cater a few of our events and they have always been spot on.

I was there Friday evening to hear some live music. Thought I would order a meat ball sandwich while there. In all fairness the meat balls were very good but the Italian bread was was old and spongy like it had been put in a microwave to soften it. The sweet peppers were cold as of they were just pulled out of the ice box instead of been warm ed in some type of gravy. The French fries were just a hand full of fries if that and obviously cooked in oil that many other things were cooked in. Very gritty. The wait staff is very nice and friendly. I'm sorry I can only give it a two star and that's only because of the wait staff.

Honestly, I was a bit worried about this place when I saw the price. Got the food the cheese was missing off of my order. You know what... Not even mad. The food was so good, despite the fact i had paid for the cheese, wasn't even mad. The staff there was very welcoming and kind! Just from that alone made me want to come back again and again. I came home, looked at my boyfriend and said, Just based on walking in there and their staff I'd order from there again. He looked at me a bit confused. I am not sure what he thought of the food but i loved it.

As we were driving home from our meal at Perry's, Christopher and I compared notes as we usually do. He felt it was a 3 or 4 star, while I felt it was a 2 or 3 star place. My thought was to give it 3, but as the day passed, I found I could just not say it was A-Ok, so here we are with 2 stars to bestow. I have driven past Perry's hundreds of times on my commute out Devon Avenue and had always been mildly curious about it, so when Restaurant.com had a coupon, I went for it. The place itself is kind of cool. It has that old neighborhood kind of feel. It was pretty much empty when we walked in, but it was a Sunday afternoon, so I wasn't too surprised. Well, as to the food.... Christopher ordered the chicken florentine served over fettuccine. The menu said it was made with prosciutto, spinach, sauteed chicken and garlic, which all seemed to be there. He really loved the flavor. The big problem I had (more than Chris did) was that it was floating in liquid. The plate was literally on the verge of overflowing with thin, greasy sauce. For them to send out a dish looking like that says to me, that they really don't give a rats ass. It looked like chicken noodle soup on a plate. The waitress could have at least, drained off some of the juice before serving it. i tasted it and it was flavorful enough, but the presentation was just god awful. I ordered a half slab rib dinner. The ribs were ok, plenty tender, but the sauce was a bit sweet for my taste. The fries were ok, but when I asked for ketchup, what I got was a bottle that was so cold that I am surprised it hadn't started to freeze. The bottle was actually uncomfortable to handle. I ended up using the BBQ sauce instead so as not to spoil the fries. The slaw was about as flavorless as I have ever tasted. I am sure that some of it can be attributed to the fact it was as cold as the ketchup. I am all for keeping food properly chilled, but this was ridiculous. The waitress was nice enough, but to me there was an air of indifference in the place. It is like they have been there a long time, they have the market in the area cornered and they don't really have to try anymore. Well, I don't have to try either. I used my coupon, gave it a try and from now on I shall pass it on by!!

"Okay" is actually a pretty good word for Perry's pizza. I ordered two pizzas (cheese, vegetarian). The cheese was the better fo the two, because you can taste the sauce. The veggie was soggy, and just alright. I would possibly order from here again, in a pinch, but there are better pizza restaurants in the area.

I don't live nearby, but have carried out and dined in. I wish Perry's was closer to my house. I carried out a couple of rib dinners last fall. They were fantastic. Meaty, tasty, and just the right amount of sauce. One had fries, and one with baked potato. The potato held up better for the 25 min trek home. Over-all was very pleased with the service and quality of this dinner. I also dined in one Saturday night a month ago. Had my daughter and 3 of her friends. They had live music that was very pleasant. Not too loud. Great song a long play list. We ordered apps of mozzarella sticks. They were tasty. The real winner was the pizza. Thin crust that was awesome. Really enjoyed it. Fantastic pizza. I was with teenage kids, but the bar with the TV's looked very inviting to watch a game. Very clean, service exceptional, great food. What could be better?? How about the owner making the rounds checking on every table!!! Very classy!

Nice little selection of drinks at 12 lounge, $2 tapas at the bar. Absolutely the best, most forkable ribs I have ever had. Decent pizza, very customizable- super thin, regular thin crust, double dough, deep dish pan, deep dish stuffed- they do it all. My daughter likes making her own creation from dough, we're not into the fried beer nuggets but the baked dough is duper delectable in the cold marinara puree.
We found Perry's during a recent visit to Chgo. They were highly recommended by the concierge at our hotel. I'm so glad we took her advice. We had pizza with black olives. It was to die for. The salads were fresh and delicious. The kids ordered spaghetti and said it was the best they ever had. I didn't have to ask them to finish their dinner! That was a first. The garlic bread was amazing too. The prices are extremely reasonable. Delivery was so fast I was amazed. Perry's has great service and excellent food. I wish they delivered in California so I could order more often.

One of my favorite pizza places! It's a local spot to Park Ridge, and you will see a lot of locals gather here, but I will drive to this spot for their awesome pizza. The crust thin crust is so good, not at all greasy like some other places. This crust is just perfect. The cheese is cheesy, the sauce is real tomato sauce that tastes like it should on a pizza! They have a variety of toppings to choose from. They also have different sizes of pizza. My favorite is the 9" personal pizza! I love the personal pizza option, because if your friend/friends don't want to order pizza, it doesn't matter, you can still have one all to yourself!! The prices are reasonable for everything. They have a varied menu with lots of items to choose from. Go for the pizza, the salads, or any entree, it's all delicious!

Just moved into the neighborhood and Perry's has already become a staple of my diet. While my waistband doesn't necessarily appreciate it, my taste buds die and go to Heaven every time I walk into the cozy Park Ridge eatery. From the pizza to the wraps to the burger to the beer nuggets and french fries, I have yet to have an entree that isn't a complete taste sensation. The healthy portions of delicious food come at a shockingly low price, and there's always a daily special or a coupon to be used to make it even more economical. As other reviews have alluded to, the service sometimes leaves something to be desired, but the place is small enough that you can get your waitress' attention when you need your free refill or you're ready to redeem your coupon for a free cookie. They also frequently have quality live entertainment in the form of local musicians or bands. The twice-per-month karaoke nights are also very entertaining, if for a different reason. It's nice that the live entertainment doesn't overpower the venue, however, so you can easily have a conversation at your table while the musician's cover of "Cracklin' Rosie" grooves in the background. Did I mention the beer nuggets? If not for the threat of a coronary thrombosis, I could eat here every night of the week.

Went there for lunch, because the place we were originally going to go is closed on Mondays. Not only was the server slow and inattentive, but the prices were ridiculous!

I'm really surprised I didn't review this place last time they were horribly rude and screwed up my order, but they made a weak attempt to make it up (we got to keep our wrong order that was cold for free....! (?) ) so maybe I felt bad and decided to avoid the review. Quick catch up: I live on the same block as my parents, who haven't ordered from Perry's in YEARS. (They hate the food there.) When I called from my own phone number and confirmed my address SEVERAL times over the phone, they still sounded confused. When my food never showed up I called and found out the guy had pounded on my Mom's door at 10pm, waking her up, scaring her to death. They STILL had the wrong address. When I called they said, "Yeah.. you never answered your door." After a couple calls we get our wrong, cold food for free. I was starving. The worst part? The driver repeatedly SCOLDED ME for "not making sure they knew which house it was" and told me "next time make sure you give them the right address". The only thing I could have done more is drive there and update their system myself. I ordered one or two times more because I loved one of their appetizers, but the service was poor so I stopped. Last night, after much time has passed since my last order, I decide to get delivery with a friend. We were hungry for snacky type foods, so I suggested Perry's. Big mistake. Once again, the address was confirmed on the phone, but we found our driver wandering my street. Good thing my friend was watching for him! He had a completely NEW WRONG ADDRESS on his slip. (I later called and after being redirected to a manager, the first employee I spoke with had obviously finally updated the system, so the manager kept making it sound like I was lying. I had a PRINTED SLIP with the WRONG address on it.) We called him over and he walked past my friend INTO MY HOUSE without asking to come in. He then proceeded to be snarky, including saying for no reason at all, "See, this isn't so difficult buddy.". Really?! So- whatever, I'm starving. I just want to eat. We open the food and find the wrong size salad (overcharged), the wrong flavor milkshake (the entire reason we picked them in the first place was for the missing milkshake flavor) and we were missing a dip. I called the restaurant and explained and was given to a manager who sounded less than happy to be talking to me. After explaining he said, "Well.... do you want me to bring you a new milk shake?" No apology or even recognition of the several errors, and he said it in a tone that implied he was going way out of his way to do me a favor. I told him no, and we settled on a refund of the difference on the salad price. How can you screw up so many times and then have the guts to be absolute jerks about it? They tried to make it seem like I was complaining to complain. You MESSED UP. REPEATEDLY. I'm starting to wish I was rude back. I wouldn't give Perry's another dime of my money if I was crawling past during a famine and the only food in miles was their greasy, flavorless beer nuggets. (Oh, and that appetizer I liked of theirs? It's terrible now. I went to bed with a stomach ache.) Thanks for nothing, Perry's.

Stopped in for a quick beef sand and a beer. The draft lite beer was overpriced and the beef was saltier then the bar snacks. Hope the rest of the menu is better. I won't test it because I won't be returning. The one star is for the pleasant bar tender and the live music. Go to Dino's for a tastier and larger beef at a lower price.

We went there today for the first time in several years (we liked it before) and were amazed by the remodeling. Nicely done and feels more like a real restaurant than a neighborhood place. I had the Florentine Spinach Panini (Smoked Turkey, Prosciutto, fresh Spinach, smoked Provolone and Marinara) and my companion had a Cheese, Garlic and sliced Tomato Panzarotti (like a calzone) with a bowl of their Minestrone soup. Everything was outstanding. The Panini came with French Fries, Cole Slaw and a Dill Pickle Spear, too. Attentive service and parking was a breeze, also.

Service hasn't been the same since they remodeled. Had to remind her to bring the second beer, the refill of soda... Just poor service. Hope the bad tip got the point across.

I ordered rib tips for carry out. I was quoted a 20 min pick up time. I arrived 3 min early. So the guy told me it would be up in 1 to 2 minutes. So I waited patiently. 5 minutes past by and it was still not ready. I didn't even get a courtesy apology for the extended wait time. Someone else that ordered for pick up came to pick up their food and was told 1 to 2 minutes. She obviously got her food before me even though I was waiting for 10 minutes now. After 2 minutes more of waiting I asked him how much longer it would be? He replied "soon". So after about 15 minutes of my quoted pickup time, I finally recieved my order. I just didn't appreciate the lack of customer service skills this guy had who by the way might have been the owner of the restaurant. And just the fact that I didn't even recieve an apology for waiting 15 minutes longer than I originally anticipated. I will make sure I tell all my friends and relatives about the poor service that I recieved.

Nostalgic place, however it doesn't quite live up to anything specific. If it didn't have a buffet, I'm not sure what one menu item could draw in my repeat business. Their pizza is standard; their veggie pie is tasty and unique for its thin crust. I've had the rib tips and while it sparks an interesting flavor, the sauce that is; it's nothing more than just that. The barbecue sauce is vinegary in flavor and the tips are strange cuts. Rib meat, not quite like the standard tips you get anywhere else, a different cut of meat altogether. I like Perry's because it's a colorful atmosphere to take little ones. My nieces and nephew are really digging it. The wait staff is accommodating, like Kathy, she's a personable lady and can often woo the kids to her liking. That's where the buck stops for me. Families could check this place out, especially on (as I mentioned previously) buffet nights. Hit it up on the weekend, more options available and updated with more frequency.

I have ordered Perry's Pizza at least once a year for several years. It's pretty good pizza - nothing extraordinary, but there aren't many choices for good pizza in the area. Recently I went to dine in with my family, as we all had a taste for pizza. It was really dead inside. Anyway, we sat down and started looking over the menu. Perry's has "Daily Specials" and the day we went (Thursday Night), there was Free Beer Nuggets with a $15 purchase. We asked if we can order those for our appetizer. As the waitress took our order, the man standing behind the register told her "you better make sure they are ordering $15 of food" or something along the lines of that. Seriously? There is 4 of us. What can we get for less than $15 total. Anway, Beer Nuggets. Basically, fried dough with marinara dipping sauce. It was a very generous portion. There had to be at least 50 nuggets. They were OK. No flavor really. They could have used some salt. We ordered a thin crust pizza and a pan pizza. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich because I was on a diet. I tried the pizza, again, it was OK. I like their pizza, but it's SO bland. The crust could use some salt, or some butter, or something. Not a lot of flavor in the pizza overall. The grilled chicken sandwich was awful. The breast was very, very thick - and it was even faint pink inside (probably because the breast was so darn thick that it takes longer to cook) and it was COVERED in Oregano. Literally, like it was rolled in it. I couldn't eat it after one bite - yuck. My side was a pasta salad. It tasted like refrigerator, so unfortunately I had to break my diet and eat the pizza. The server was nice, but never refilled our drinks which were empty for the majority of the time we were there. Sadly, I think my journey with Perry's will end here. I just wasn't happy with the food this past time.

Ordered 5 sandwiches & small pizza at 630 on a Friday night. Asked for cheese & garlic bread for the sandwiches. Food arrived warm, we live 7 minutes away. No cheese on 2 & no garlic bread on one, the order was correct on the receipt. Skirt steak sandwich was good, beef I thought was just OK. Called back to get new sandwiches, if I'm going to chat on my diet I want cheese! Customer service was at a negative 2, told it takes 30 minutes at least for the skirt steak sandwich, no refund offered or credit. Disappointed. Won't order from here again.

When I went there I had a cheese pizza. It was a decent pizza, just very greasy. The service was slow, But, when I got the bill, it was accurate and cheap. I will definitely come back some time soon.

Have been going to Perry's for over 30 years. The Ribs are absolutely the best in the Chicago area. Perry's also does a great job catering. I have had them cater multiple parties & the food is always the correct temp. and delivered on time! Love the remodeling. Good food, great atmosphere!

I usually don't write reviews, but I had to for this place. I read mixed reviews on yelp and did n9t give this place a try for a long time. yesterday was my first time dining there. The place is nothing fancy but does have a neighborhood feel. The staff was very friendly and pizza was good. Moving to Park Ridge I was disappointed with the lack of good pizza places. Perry's was the best so far. I recommend Pizza with Italian beef and gardnerra peppers for toppings. that was you get two of Chicago s best foods in one.

I've lived near Perry's for years. We've ordered delivery, pick up and dined in the restaurant. I've held off writing a review because I've always held out that they could be great, not just ok. I'm finally writing a review because of one more bad experience solidly has put them off the option list and agreeing with the many other 'they're just ok' reviews on yelp. Please keep in mind that you may want to consider another option if you are ordering delivery. Our latest experience showed that they continue to not check orders. It was a simple order of the seafood tortellini with an order of spaghetti and meatballs with the sauce on the side. The seafood tortellini was good, hot and I would order it again. The spaghetti arrived - with the sauce on the pasta. When I called, I was asked if I ordered it on the side. I directed the operator to the receipt, which stated that the sauce was to be on the side. To Perry's credit, she did offer to send me an order of plain pasta. I decline already having the water heating up. If had intended to cook, I wouldn't have tried delivery for a simple order. I ended up cooking and having one more dodgy experience with Perry's. I should note that the restaurant did update the interior in the past year and the improvements look good. The new bar was well done. I frequented it several times with groups of friends for a game or event. Unfortunately, the service behind the bar mirrors the hot and miss quality of the kitchen.

::Note: Review of food & delivery service only:: Perry's is a solid place for all of your lunch and catering needs. Whenever I'm lazy, starving, and don't want to leave the office, Perry's is my go to place for fast delivery and good food. They're comparable to Jimmy John's with their freaky fast delivery - regardless of the order size. ///Favorites\\\ +Beer Nuggets ((duh)) +Zesty Veggie Flatbread +Roma Chicken Salad +Thai Chicken Wrap or Grilled Veggie Wrap ((Tip: order the dressing on the side!)) +Grilled Veggie Wrap +Jalapeno Veggie Burger +Spinach Florentine Panini Keep an eye out for daily specials too...they offer some kickass deals ((such as free beer nuggets with a $15+ order))

I have gotten the chicken tender dinner from here 2x and both times it was delicious! I also had the buffalo chicken wrap which is pretty decent. The young lady who answers the phone during the day is rather blah on the phone and in person. If she were a bit nicer, I would give this place 4 stars.

Went to this restaurant and while the food was ok, the wine was sooo bad. Asked for a pino noir, got some awful tasting prune juice. Asked the server if she would mind opening a fresh bottle, so she brought me a new glass of wine which was almost as bad as the first. I'm not a wine snob but won't drink box wine either plus box wine would have been a major improvement. Didn't drink the wine, paid for it and left. Don't think I'll be back

We moved from Park Ridge over twenty years ago, but still come back from Milwaukee for fun at Perry's.

Perry's has been recently remodeled and is much more inviting (at least to me) than the old Perry's. They have removed their "all you can eat buffet" and added an area with a full bar. We typically order a pizza (beer pizza is great!) and listen to the live music on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30. Depending on who is playing, it can get a little crowded but it's always a fun time! They also have a great kids menu. Yes, it is not as fancy as Zia's but it's a great little pizza place. We haven't tried their ribs yet but I've heard they are good. Another plus...for a small corkage fee, they will let you bring in your own wine!

Ordered Perry's tonight for dinner. Placed order at 8:35 and was told it was coming in 35 - 40 minutes. An hour later it showed up. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap Combo and a calzone panzarotti with sausage and mushroom. The bill came to $19.50, which included delivery. Overall, the food was ok. The best part was the sausage in the panzarotti. It was strong to quite strong. Portions were large, the chicken in the wrap was somewhat rubbery. For delivery, it is a nice option on a budget or if you are looking for something to tide you over. I would have given 4 stars, but the excessive wait on a Monday night caused a one point deduction.

A couple of good meals here, but mostly bad. So much water in salad on two occasions that I couldn't eat it. Sandwich bread burned. Under cooked fries. Inconsistency of ordering things from one day to another. Boyfriend got viciously ill from the BBQ pork. The only reason we still eat there once a month is there's nothing else around. Each time we swear we'll never go back. We never learn. If you want pizza, go to Gumba Joe's.

We went to Perry's for the first time on a recent Sat. night with 3 other couples. The pizza and ribs were outstanding. They had an excellent band that did a range of tunes from the 70's on, playing blues, pop and even some country. It wasn't so loud that we couldn't talk. Service was very good. They had a nice sized crowd but I was surprised (and relieved) that it wasn't a packed house. We'll go back for sure. I picked up a catering menu for my office and we'll try them for some in-house luncheons.

Stopped in for a quick beef sand and a beer. The draft lite beer was overpriced and the beef was saltier then the bar snacks. Hope the rest of the menu is better. I won't test it because I won't be returning. The one star is for the pleasant bar tender and the live music. Go to Dino's for a tastier and larger beef at a lower price.

The ribs are absolutely delicious. Whenever I have a craving for ribs, Perry's is the first place I think of. They are a bit over priced which is why they didn't get 5 stars. If you feel like splurging, try this place for ribs.

We went there today for the first time in several years (we liked it before) and were amazed by the remodeling. Nicely done and feels more like a real restaurant than a neighborhood place. I had the Florentine Spinach Panini (Smoked Turkey, Prosciutto, fresh Spinach, smoked Provolone and Marinara) and my companion had a Cheese, Garlic and sliced Tomato Panzarotti (like a calzone) with a bowl of their Minestrone soup. Everything was outstanding. The Panini came with French Fries, Cole Slaw and a Dill Pickle Spear, too. Attentive service and parking was a breeze, also.

Service hasn't been the same since they remodeled. Had to remind her to bring the second beer, the refill of soda... Just poor service. Hope the bad tip got the point across. Two of us had different soups. Neither were good. Now the BBQ pizza was great. I think we will start picking up and taking it home.

I ordered rib tips for carry out. I was quoted a 20 min pick up time. I arrived 3 min early. So the guy told me it would be up in 1 to 2 minutes. So I waited patiently. 5 minutes past by and it was still not ready. I didn't even get a courtesy apology for the extended wait time. Someone else that ordered for pick up came to pick up their food and was told 1 to 2 minutes. She obviously got her food before me even though I was waiting for 10 minutes now. After 2 minutes more of waiting I asked him how much longer it would be? He replied "soon". So after about 15 minutes of my quoted pickup time, I finally recieved my order. I just didn't appreciate the lack of customer service skills this guy had who by the way might have been the owner of the restaurant. And just the fact that I didn't even recieve an apology for waiting 15 minutes longer than I originally anticipated. I will make sure I tell all my friends and relatives about the poor service that I recieved.

Nostalgic place, however it doesn't quite live up to anything specific. If it didn't have a buffet, I'm not sure what one menu item could draw in my repeat business. Their pizza is standard; their veggie pie is tasty and unique for its thin crust. I've had the rib tips and while it sparks an interesting flavor, the sauce that is; it's nothing more than just that. The barbecue sauce is vinegary in flavor and the tips are strange cuts. Rib meat, not quite like the standard tips you get anywhere else, a different cut of meat altogether. I like Perry's because it's a colorful atmosphere to take little ones. My nieces and nephew are really digging it. The wait staff is accommodating, like Kathy, she's a personable lady and can often woo the kids to her liking. That's where the buck stops for me. Families could check this place out, especially on (as I mentioned previously) buffet nights. Hit it up on the weekend, more options available and updated with more frequency.

I have ordered Perry's Pizza at least once a year for several years. It's pretty good pizza - nothing extraordinary, but there aren't many choices for good pizza in the area. Recently I went to dine in with my family, as we all had a taste for pizza. It was really dead inside. Anyway, we sat down and started looking over the menu. Perry's has "Daily Specials" and the day we went (Thursday Night), there was Free Beer Nuggets with a $15 purchase. We asked if we can order those for our appetizer. As the waitress took our order, the man standing behind the register told her "you better make sure they are ordering $15 of food" or something along the lines of that. Seriously? There is 4 of us. What can we get for less than $15 total. Anway, Beer Nuggets. Basically, fried dough with marinara dipping sauce. It was a very generous portion. There had to be at least 50 nuggets. They were OK. No flavor really. They could have used some salt. We ordered a thin crust pizza and a pan pizza. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich because I was on a diet. I tried the pizza, again, it was OK. I like their pizza, but it's SO bland. The crust could use some salt, or some butter, or something. Not a lot of flavor in the pizza overall. The grilled chicken sandwich was awful. The breast was very, very thick - and it was even faint pink inside (probably because the breast was so darn thick that it takes longer to cook) and it was COVERED in Oregano. Literally, like it was rolled in it. I couldn't eat it after one bite - yuck. My side was a pasta salad. It tasted like refrigerator, so unfortunately I had to break my diet and eat the pizza. The server was nice, but never refilled our drinks which were empty for the majority of the time we were there. Sadly, I think my journey with Perry's will end here.

I'm really surprised I didn't review this place last time they were horribly rude and screwed up my order, but they made a weak attempt to make it up (we got to keep our wrong order that was cold for free....! (?) ) so maybe I felt bad and decided to avoid the review. Quick catch up: I live on the same block as my parents, who haven't ordered from Perry's in YEARS. (They hate the food there.) When I called from my own phone number and confirmed my address SEVERAL times over the phone, they still sounded confused. When my food never showed up I called and found out the guy had pounded on my Mom's door at 10pm, waking her up, scaring her to death. They STILL had the wrong address. When I called they said, "Yeah.. you never answered your door." After a couple calls we get our wrong, cold food for free. I was starving. The worst part? The driver repeatedly SCOLDED ME for "not making sure they knew which house it was" and told me "next time make sure you give them the right address". The only thing I could have done more is drive there and update their system myself. I ordered one or two times more because I loved one of their appetizers, but the service was poor so I stopped. Last night, after much time has passed since my last order, I decide to get delivery with a friend. We were hungry for snacky type foods, so I suggested Perry's. Big mistake. Once again, the address was confirmed on the phone, but we found our driver wandering my street. Good thing my friend was watching for him! He had a completely NEW WRONG ADDRESS on his slip. (I later called and after being redirected to a manager, the first employee I spoke with had obviously finally updated the system, so the manager kept making it sound like I was lying. I had a PRINTED SLIP with the WRONG address on it.) We called him over and he walked past my friend INTO MY HOUSE without asking to come in. He then proceeded to be snarky, including saying for no reason at all, "See, this isn't so difficult buddy.". Really?! So- whatever, I'm starving. I just want to eat. We open the food and find the wrong size salad (overcharged), the wrong flavor milkshake (the entire reason we picked them in the first place was for the missing milkshake flavor) and we were missing a dip. I called the restaurant and explained and was given to a manager who sounded less than happy to be talking to me. After explaining he said, "Well.... do you want me to bring you a new milk shake?" No apology or even recognition of the several errors, and he said it in a tone that implied he was going way out of his way to do me a favor. I told him no, and we settled on a refund of the difference on the salad price. How can you screw up so many times and then have the guts to be absolute jerks about it? They tried to make it seem like I was complaining to complain. You MESSED UP. REPEATEDLY. I'm starting to wish I was rude back. I wouldn't give Perry's another dime of my money if I was crawling past during a famine and the only food in miles was their greasy, flavorless beer nuggets. (Oh, and that appetizer I liked of theirs? It's terrible now. I went to bed with a stomach ache.) Thanks for nothing, Perry's.

Perrys is good. They have a huge menu with everything you can think of, from pizza to sandwiches to burgers to roasted chicken to pasta. They have good thick crust pizza, they don't skimp on cheese, I made a mistake by ordering extra cheese, and I felt like i was swimming in cheese, by eating 2 slices. Haha, very very good though! Also, Ive tried there meatball sandwiches, and that was very good as well. I live so close, so I will def be coming back to try more things on the menu. Maybe the roasted chicken next time! good job perrys!

Our company has been ordering from Perry's for years now. Incredible pizza from Park Ridge, this place has a menu where every item is great! Try their incredible ribs, the tasty wings and their amazing panzarottis too! You will not be disappointed! Also, if you need an event catered, these guys have got you covered. We have had Perry's cater a few of our events and they have always been spot on.

Ok, so I have had Perry's once a year for the past three years. They cater our yearly "thanks for all your hard work" party. We always get thin crust and we get quite the variety of 'za....veggie, bbq, meat lovers, cheese, cheese & sausage, pepperoni. I'm pretty sure that I've had each variety. I think Perry's is solid. The crust is crispy and they aren't stingy with their ingredients. I like the variety...the BBQ in paricular. BBQ sauce, bacon, sausage and onion? Yes, please. They always provide little side salads for us also...house & mixed greens. They are always fresh and they provide a nice variety of dressings as well. They are always prompt (at least to me). Apparently they have been catering this party for years. Yes, it's free pizza....but it's not crappy free pizza. If I lived in the area, chances are I'd be ordering from Perry's on a regular basis...for this, my ass is most grateful.

I am a fan and enjoy their thin crust pizza it's perfect for a football game. I have gone to the restaurant for dinner and have ordered in. When we ordered in the food came quickly but it was the wrong food. luckily I caught it while the driver was still there he was very apologetic and the food we ordered came shortly after and it was still faster then they said. The restaurant itself isn't the most romantic but if you are looking for a good meal then who cares its clean and the staff is super nice and helpful. I'm defiantly looking forward to my next pizza from there even though I'm writing this at 5 in the morning.

Groupon brought us here. The mediocre food and lousy service will ensure that we never come back. Large sign on the front window says: "BUFFET - ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS CHICKEN PIZZA $8.99 Fri 4-9 Sat 4-9 Seniors $6.99 Kids 1/2 w/Adult" We were 2 adults and 2 kids and we were there between 4 and 9 on a Satuday. Seems pretty cut and dried as to pricing, right? Well, our bill arrived and we were charged 4x $8.99. I didn't really think anything of it. A simple mistake, easily remedied. Right? Um, not so much. The waitress explained to my husband that, if a child is old enough to go up to the buffet and serve herself, no kids pricing. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Add to that, I was not impressed AT ALL with the buffet as I got a glance of it on our way in. But my husband insisted we order the buffet and we even swayed our kids to order buffet vs. from the kids menu. At any one time, there was maybe part of one pizza on the buffet. The fried chicken came out so slowly diners had to race each other when a fresh batch would come out. The salad bar was definitely weak. And there were rib tips, but not ribs. I will say the pizza was decent and the rip tips were tasty. The hot wings, fried chicken, sausage and peppers, sides and salad bar were all meh. Needless to say, we will not be back.

I gave this pizza a try and really liked it. I had the thin crust sausage. The crust was done just right. I liked the taste of the sauce, it was a little sweeter than others, but that's a good thing. The italian sausage was really good and just the right amount. For that matter there was just the right amount of toppings on the pizza. I look forward to returning and trying some of the other food offered.

I ordered delivery from here during a weekend and they were very nice. Not sounding like a sad robot like some other places over the phone. Not at all. That was a heart warming experience. I ordered some fried calamari and an Italian beef deluxe which included cole slaw and fries. I was gonna order a cannoli but I forgot! I wanted to see how that was.. They quoted me 45 minutes but they showed up within 30. So super cool. So here's where it sadly went down hill. I don't know if the driver was racing around hardcore but when I opened my order.. coleslaw dressing was dripping everywhere. So I had to plate everything. That's just great! now I have to wash dishes!! The order of fried calamari for 8.49 was teeny tiny! Enough for about 1 person or 1 person and 1 small child... like in the 4 yr old range. As for the calamari.. they are tiny rings but nicely battered and the calamari wasn't dried out and you don't get any heads and tentacles for those of you that aren't into that shit. The cole slaw was very bland, I threw that one out. The semi saving grace would be the fries which were kinda soggy! Oh mama likes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the italian beef was eh ok. but ugh. I should of just went to Portillo's. It sure doesn't pay to be lazy. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza in the midwest so there'd be no point for me to order from here again if I was in the area. What a waste of 23 bucks. UGH. dead to me.

A nice neighborhood restaurant. It's in a beautiful space lovingly maintained so the ambiance is great. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kitchen is slow, but that's my only complaint. The salads, sandwiches, and pizzas are quite nice. I haven't tried the pastas or ribs yet but I don't doubt they are just as good. The food is not "as good as it gets" but it is good, wholesome fare. They have beer and wine, mostly the standard selections but there are a couple of real brews. My wife and I like this place and will keep coming back. Several reviewers who apparently are mostly interested in being snarkily witty have panned Perry's, but they are missing out - don't believe them or you'll miss out too on a lovely neighborhood diner.

I've had pretty much everything on the menus and it never disappoints. Delivery is quick and professional. I highly recommend the Thai Chicken Salad and the pizza. The toppings are always really fresh and tasty.

I had been going to Perry's for years then moved to Southern California. Recently went and the place is still great. The ribs are fall off the bone and the thin crust pizza is delicious. I've had friends try other things on the menu and be disappointed so stick with the pizza and ribs.

I live just blocks away from Perry's and wrote if off years ago. THEN, I got a gift card to Perry's and decided to give them another chance. I am so glad I did. First off, they have recently renovated their restaurant, and the dining space is fabulous. Warm, Cozy and really appropriate to the style of service (pub/pizz food) and area (lots of families/casual). On top of this my family was seated and attended to by a very conscientious waitress from the get-go. This always puts us in a good mood. Gettin' that glass of wine early always makes me happy! We chose pizza and some wrap sandwiches. All was very tasty, and my kids loved the wraps. I am not a big fan of thin crust pizza, but I lost the vote and that is what my table ordered....and it was very good for thin. Very crispy and lots of veges and sausage. I am kind of sad we did not get the ribs, though, since the table next door did, and I smelled them during my whole meal -- they smelled great! But that just means I'm going back, which I am most definitely looking forward to. Thanks Perry's!

Our company has been ordering from Perry's for years now. Incredible pizza from Park Ridge, this place has a menu where every item is great! Try their incredible ribs, the tasty wings and their amazing panzarottis too! You will not be disappointed! Also, if you need an event catered, these guys have got you covered. We have had Perry's cater a few of our events and they have always been spot on.

The ribs are indeed 'fall off the bone', they are spectacular. Might not jump out as a rib joint, but this is as good as it gets. Pizza is dynamite, always has fresh toppings, , love the pizza buffet at lunch, let's me try all sorts of toppings I otherwise wouldn't order. Dine in service is speedy, yet pleasant. My friend loved the wings, kept asking how they were buy only rec'd grumbles while working every bit of meat off the bones. Price is right, quality superb - and would be a great place to take the family.

Pretty good pizza. My girlfriend and I had this last night with a bottle of wine and we were both satisfied with it. The sausage was big and tasty and there was just the right amount of sauce on the pizza. The delivery was hot and fast. I will be ordering from this place again.

I recently started living in Park Ridge (long story- living in grandma's old house until I finish grad school- I will be back in Chicago Chicago soon) My dad grew up in PR and told me I had to have Perry's. It was the best.And you get a nice 1960's feeling about the place. Ahhhhh, the good ole days!

Perrys is good. They have a huge menu with everything you can think of, from pizza to sandwiches to burgers to roasted chicken to pasta. They have good thick crust pizza, they don't skimp on cheese, I made a mistake by ordering extra cheese, and I felt like i was swimming in cheese, by eating 2 slices. Haha, very very good though! Also, Ive tried there meatball sandwiches, and that was very good as well. I live so close, so I will def be coming back to try more things on the menu. Maybe the roasted chicken next time! good job perrys!

As we were driving home from our meal at Perry's, Christopher and I compared notes as we usually do. He felt it was a 3 or 4 star, while I felt it was a 2 or 3 star place. My thought was to give it 3, but as the day passed, I found I could just not say it was A-Ok, so here we are with 2 stars to bestow. I have driven past Perry's hundreds of times on my commute out Devon Avenue and had always been mildly curious about it, so when Restaurant.com had a coupon, I went for it. The place itself is kind of cool. It has that old neighborhood kind of feel. It was pretty much empty when we walked in, but it was a Sunday afternoon, so I wasn't too surprised. Well, as to the food.... Christopher ordered the chicken florentine served over fettuccine. The menu said it was made with prosciutto, spinach, sauteed chicken and garlic, which all seemed to be there. He really loved the flavor. The big problem I had (more than Chris did) was that it was floating in liquid. The plate was literally on the verge of overflowing with thin, greasy sauce. For them to send out a dish looking like that says to me, that they really don't give a rats ass. It looked like chicken noodle soup on a plate. The waitress could have at least, drained off some of the juice before serving it. i tasted it and it was flavorful enough, but the presentation was just god awful. I ordered a half slab rib dinner. The ribs were ok, plenty tender, but the sauce was a bit sweet for my taste. The fries were ok, but when I asked for ketchup, what I got was a bottle that was so cold that I am surprised it hadn't started to freeze. The bottle was actually uncomfortable to handle. I ended up using the BBQ sauce instead so as not to spoil the fries. The slaw was about as flavorless as I have ever tasted. I am sure that some of it can be attributed to the fact it was as cold as the ketchup. I am all for keeping food properly chilled, but this was ridiculous. The waitress was nice enough, but to me there was an air of indifference in the place. It is like they have been there a long time, they have the market in the area cornered and they don't really have to try anymore. Well, I don't have to try either. I used my coupon, gave it a try and from now on I shall pass it on by!!

"Okay" is actually a pretty good word for Perry's pizza. I ordered two pizzas (cheese, vegetarian). The cheese was the better fo the two, because you can taste the sauce. The veggie was soggy, and just alright. I would possibly order from here again, in a pinch, but there are better pizza restaurants in the area.

Didnt get pizza there, hope its not as bad as the service. Ordered wings. they were ok. ordered calamari. had ink and was straight up squid head and rubber. I didnt know there was a such thing as rubber squid.

Ok, so I have had Perry's once a year for the past three years. They cater our yearly "thanks for all your hard work" party. We always get thin crust and we get quite the variety of 'za....veggie, bbq, meat lovers, cheese, cheese & sausage, pepperoni. I'm pretty sure that I've had each variety. I think Perry's is solid. The crust is crispy and they aren't stingy with their ingredients. I like the variety...the BBQ in paricular. BBQ sauce, bacon, sausage and onion? Yes, please. They always provide little side salads for us also...house & mixed greens. They are always fresh and they provide a nice variety of dressings as well. They are always prompt (at least to me). Apparently they have been catering this party for years. Yes, it's free pizza....but it's not crappy free pizza. If I lived in the area, chances are I'd be ordering from Perry's on a regular basis...for this, my ass is most grateful.

I am a fan and enjoy their thin crust pizza it's perfect for a football game. I have gone to the restaurant for dinner and have ordered in. When we ordered in the food came quickly but it was the wrong food. luckily I caught it while the driver was still there he was very apologetic and the food we ordered came shortly after and it was still faster then they said. The restaurant itself isn't the most romantic but if you are looking for a good meal then who cares its clean and the staff is super nice and helpful. I'm defiantly looking forward to my next pizza from there even though I'm writing this at 5 in the morning.

Groupon brought us here. The mediocre food and lousy service will ensure that we never come back. Large sign on the front window says: "BUFFET - ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS CHICKEN PIZZA $8.99 Fri 4-9 Sat 4-9 Seniors $6.99 Kids 1/2 w/Adult" We were 2 adults and 2 kids and we were there between 4 and 9 on a Satuday. Seems pretty cut and dried as to pricing, right? Well, our bill arrived and we were charged 4x $8.99. I didn't really think anything of it. A simple mistake, easily remedied. Right? Um, not so much. The waitress explained to my husband that, if a child is old enough to go up to the buffet and serve herself, no kids pricing. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Add to that, I was not impressed AT ALL with the buffet as I got a glance of it on our way in. But my husband insisted we order the buffet and we even swayed our kids to order buffet vs. from the kids menu. At any one time, there was maybe part of one pizza on the buffet. The fried chicken came out so slowly diners had to race each other when a fresh batch would come out. The salad bar was definitely weak. And there were rib tips, but not ribs. I will say the pizza was decent and the rip tips were tasty. The hot wings, fried chicken, sausage and peppers, sides and salad bar were all meh. Needless to say, we will not be back.

I gave this pizza a try and really liked it. I had the thin crust sausage. The crust was done just right. I liked the taste of the sauce, it was a little sweeter than others, but that's a good thing. The italian sausage was really good and just the right amount. For that matter there was just the right amount of toppings on the pizza. I look forward to returning and trying some of the other food offered.

I ordered delivery from here during a weekend and they were very nice. Not sounding like a sad robot like some other places over the phone. Not at all. That was a heart warming experience. I ordered some fried calamari and an Italian beef deluxe which included cole slaw and fries. I was gonna order a cannoli but I forgot! I wanted to see how that was.. They quoted me 45 minutes but they showed up within 30. So super cool. So here's where it sadly went down hill. I don't know if the driver was racing around hardcore but when I opened my order.. coleslaw dressing was dripping everywhere. So I had to plate everything. That's just great! now I have to wash dishes!! The order of fried calamari for 8.49 was teeny tiny! Enough for about 1 person or 1 person and 1 small child... like in the 4 yr old range. As for the calamari.. they are tiny rings but nicely battered and the calamari wasn't dried out and you don't get any heads and tentacles for those of you that aren't into that shit. The cole slaw was very bland, I threw that one out. The semi saving grace would be the fries which were kinda soggy! Oh mama likes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the italian beef was eh ok. but ugh. I should of just went to Portillo's. It sure doesn't pay to be lazy. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza in the midwest so there'd be no point for me to order from here again if I was in the area. What a waste of 23 bucks. UGH. dead to me.

Beer nuggets are a different thing to have on a menu. Had to try them because the were a staple food of where my wife went to college. All it is is fried dough with marinara. Surprisingly pretty damn good. Along with their thin crust pizza it was pretty good. They have some good weekly specials. The 2 times I have been in there the staff has been very friendly. Yes there are probably some better pizza places in the area but Perry's offers a lot more on their menu. Might try their ribs next.

Perry's is awesome. You can't beat the neighborhood joint where the owner will get to know you by first name if you go more than once. The hot wing dinner with garlic bread is a tasty treat that mainstream restaurants cannot duplicate. Also, if you go to a rib joint and order seafood you are probably not going to get good food (comment below).

Ahhhh the memories. I have been eating here since before I can remember. The pizza here comes in big greasy hunks and I love it. The wings here are also really good. They use a sweet-hot sauce that is actually pretty unique. As far as Park Ridge goes, this is by far the best pizza around. The delivery is also surprisingly fast. They will quote you an hour, then be at your door in 25 minutes.

I grew up eating Perry's. This was the place to go for pizza in Park Ridge. Unfortunately, the quality has changed and I have to cross this place off of our list. The last couple times we ordered, the pizzas were horrible! There was way too much sauce, not enough cheese, and it was burnt and nasty! It tasted like they opened a jar of tomato paste and spread it all over the crust without seasoning. It was just not the Perry's that I used to love. I hope it goes back to how it used to be!

Ahh, Perry's. Beer Nuggets. I had my first pepperoni pizza here when I was a wee lad. I still come back for the beer nuggets. And the pepperoni pizza.

(5)Peter W.
I was there Friday evening to hear some live music. Thought I would order a meat ball sandwich while there. In all fairness the meat balls were very good but the Italian bread was was old and spongy like it had been put in a microwave to soften it. The sweet peppers were cold as of they were just pulled out of the ice box instead of been warm ed in some type of gravy. The French fries were just a hand full of fries if that and obviously cooked in oil that many other things were cooked in. Very gritty. The wait staff is very nice and friendly. I'm sorry I can only give it a two star and that's only because of the wait staff.
(2)Crystal L.
Honestly, I was a bit worried about this place when I saw the price. Got the food the cheese was missing off of my order. You know what... Not even mad. The food was so good, despite the fact i had paid for the cheese, wasn't even mad. The staff there was very welcoming and kind! Just from that alone made me want to come back again and again. I came home, looked at my boyfriend and said, Just based on walking in there and their staff I'd order from there again. He looked at me a bit confused. I am not sure what he thought of the food but i loved it.

The place itself is kind of cool. It has that old neighborhood kind of feel. It was pretty much empty when we walked in, but it was a Sunday afternoon, so I wasn't too surprised. Well, as to the food.... Christopher ordered the chicken florentine served over fettuccine. The menu said it was made with prosciutto, spinach, sauteed chicken and garlic, which all seemed to be there. He really loved the flavor. The big problem I had (more than Chris did) was that it was floating in liquid. The plate was literally on the verge of overflowing with thin, greasy sauce. For them to send out a dish looking like that says to me, that they really don't give a rats ass. It looked like chicken noodle soup on a plate. The waitress could have at least, drained off some of the juice before serving it. i tasted it and it was flavorful enough, but the presentation was just god awful. I ordered a half slab rib dinner. The ribs were ok, plenty tender, but the sauce was a bit sweet for my taste. The fries were ok, but when I asked for ketchup, what I got was a bottle that was so cold that I am surprised it hadn't started to freeze. The bottle was actually uncomfortable to handle. I ended up using the BBQ sauce instead so as not to spoil the fries. The slaw was about as flavorless as I have ever tasted. I am sure that some of it can be attributed to the fact it was as cold as the ketchup. I am all for keeping food properly chilled, but this was ridiculous. The waitress was nice enough, but to me there was an air of indifference in the place. It is like they have been there a long time, they have the market in the area cornered and they don't really have to try anymore. Well, I don't have to try either. I used my coupon, gave it a try and from now on I shall pass it on by!!

"Okay" is actually a pretty good word for Perry's pizza. I ordered two pizzas (cheese, vegetarian). The cheese was the better fo the two, because you can taste the sauce. The veggie was soggy, and just alright. I would possibly order from here again, in a pinch, but there are better pizza restaurants in the area.

Didnt get pizza there, hope its not as bad as the service. Ordered wings. they were ok. ordered calamari. had ink and was straight up squid head and rubber. I didnt know there was a such thing as rubber squid.

Great pizza...but so much more on the menu. I love their salads. We like to go on weekend nights now to hear the live music...some really great talent and lots of fun!

I don't live nearby, but have carried out and dined in. I wish Perry's was closer to my house. I carried out a couple of rib dinners last fall. They were fantastic. Meaty, tasty, and just the right amount of sauce. One had fries, and one with baked potato. The potato held up better for the 25 min trek home. Over-all was very pleased with the service and quality of this dinner. I also dined in one Saturday night a month ago. Had my daughter and 3 of her friends. They had live music that was very pleasant. Not too loud. Great song a long play list. We ordered apps of mozzarella sticks. They were tasty. The real winner was the pizza. Thin crust that was awesome. Really enjoyed it. Fantastic pizza. I was with teenage kids, but the bar with the TV's looked very inviting to watch a game. Very clean, service exceptional, great food. What could be better?? How about the owner making the rounds checking on every table!!! Very classy!

Ordered the Beer Pizza, thin crust, extra crispy. One of the better pizzas I have had in the Chicago land area. Great atmosphere, good drink specials and overall a cozy little location. Really hit the jack pot on this one! Will definitely return here!
(5)Kate P.
Nice little selection of drinks at 12 lounge, $2 tapas at the bar. Absolutely the best, most forkable ribs I have ever had. Decent pizza, very customizable- super thin, regular thin crust, double dough, deep dish pan, deep dish stuffed- they do it all. My daughter likes making her own creation from dough, we're not into the fried beer nuggets but the baked dough is duper delectable in the cold marinara puree.

Perry's, though not my favorite Italian ristorante, is a good go-to when you're craving some yummy pasta without having to pay an arm and a leg or travel too far. When my fiancé told me that Perry's offers pizza and ribs I was a tad bit weirded out because those are two genres of food that seem to totally, and I mean completely clash. I'm not really sure if Perry's is 51% Italian and 49% not or vice-versa, but the pasta was definitely good, that's for sure. I was in the mood for some ravioli so I ordered their cheese ravioli (the only kind of ravioli they have). I thought it just a bit odd that they didn't have a couple variations of ravioli, but it's all cool because I do indeed love my plain ole cheese raviolis. What made my ravioli 10x better was the fact that I got meatballs on them (for an additional cost of $3) and there loads of meatballs! Oh, and the meatballs were delicious tasting! The entire pasta was delicious, as was the side salad that came with it. I opted to get a Cesar salad and that was quite good. There was something about the dressing that tickled my fancy more than other Cesar dressings. Ultimately, the waitress was very patient with my incessant questioning about the menu and you can pretty much order anything to your liking (so long as you're prepared to pay for additional fees) - but then again I think it's like that everywhere. No matter. The prices were fair and there's no complaints coming from this girl about that that. Though I do have a picky complaint about the beer selection. The selection wasn't all that great, but again I'm giving them the benefit if the doubt because the food was way good. Don't worry, they got some of tho oooh classics like Blue Moon and some Revolution Brewery ones. Perry's is in a good neighborhood and right off of the main road so you shouldn't have a problem finding it. It's located next to several other good restaurants as well (ya know, just in case you're still hungry after eating all that carb-filled pasta).

We found Perry's during a recent visit to Chgo. They were highly recommended by the concierge at our hotel. I'm so glad we took her advice. We had pizza with black olives. It was to die for. The salads were fresh and delicious. The kids ordered spaghetti and said it was the best they ever had. I didn't have to ask them to finish their dinner! That was a first. The garlic bread was amazing too. The prices are extremely reasonable. Delivery was so fast I was amazed. Perry's has great service and excellent food. I wish they delivered in California so I could order more often.
(5)Emma's G.
One of my favorite pizza places! It's a local spot to Park Ridge, and you will see a lot of locals gather here, but I will drive to this spot for their awesome pizza. The crust thin crust is so good, not at all greasy like some other places. This crust is just perfect. The cheese is cheesy, the sauce is real tomato sauce that tastes like it should on a pizza! They have a variety of toppings to choose from. They also have different sizes of pizza. My favorite is the 9" personal pizza! I love the personal pizza option, because if your friend/friends don't want to order pizza, it doesn't matter, you can still have one all to yourself!! The prices are reasonable for everything. They have a varied menu with lots of items to choose from. Go for the pizza, the salads, or any entree, it's all delicious!
(5)George B.
Just moved into the neighborhood and Perry's has already become a staple of my diet. While my waistband doesn't necessarily appreciate it, my taste buds die and go to Heaven every time I walk into the cozy Park Ridge eatery. From the pizza to the wraps to the burger to the beer nuggets and french fries, I have yet to have an entree that isn't a complete taste sensation. The healthy portions of delicious food come at a shockingly low price, and there's always a daily special or a coupon to be used to make it even more economical. As other reviews have alluded to, the service sometimes leaves something to be desired, but the place is small enough that you can get your waitress' attention when you need your free refill or you're ready to redeem your coupon for a free cookie. They also frequently have quality live entertainment in the form of local musicians or bands. The twice-per-month karaoke nights are also very entertaining, if for a different reason. It's nice that the live entertainment doesn't overpower the venue, however, so you can easily have a conversation at your table while the musician's cover of "Cracklin' Rosie" grooves in the background. Did I mention the beer nuggets? If not for the threat of a coronary thrombosis, I could eat here every night of the week.

Grew up with Perry's Pizza and they are still doing it right. The newly remodeled restaurant is very nice. A Park Ridge pizza institution.

Mini corn dogs and honey mustard!!!!!...is what you need to order from Perrys. Their pizza isn't the best but they have a good variety of salads. Really... mini corn dogs are the best thing on the menu... and you need to order them.
(3)Zach T.
Went there for lunch, because the place we were originally going to go is closed on Mondays. Not only was the server slow and inattentive, but the prices were ridiculous! I ordered a small salad - small was an overstatement - and it was around $9! I will never go back, and either will the company I went with.
(1)Mike B.
Ribs are awesome!!!!! Pizza is great. Yolanda the waitress is the best!!! She is so nice!!!
(5)Andrew K.
They had the best ribs in Chicago land. Now they serve dry and burned ribs. Please improve quality back where it was before so everybody can enjoy your ribs.
(3)Greg A.
Beer nuggets are to die for, but their pizza is what keeps me coming in. My kids go nuts when I remind them it's Perry's Night on Thursdays. The people are awesome, the atmosphere is great, and Thursday night they have some incredible karaoke entertainment as well.

I'm really surprised I didn't review this place last time they were horribly rude and screwed up my order, but they made a weak attempt to make it up (we got to keep our wrong order that was cold for free....! (?) ) so maybe I felt bad and decided to avoid the review. Quick catch up: I live on the same block as my parents, who haven't ordered from Perry's in YEARS. (They hate the food there.) When I called from my own phone number and confirmed my address SEVERAL times over the phone, they still sounded confused. When my food never showed up I called and found out the guy had pounded on my Mom's door at 10pm, waking her up, scaring her to death. They STILL had the wrong address. When I called they said, "Yeah.. you never answered your door." After a couple calls we get our wrong, cold food for free. I was starving. The worst part? The driver repeatedly SCOLDED ME for "not making sure they knew which house it was" and told me "next time make sure you give them the right address". The only thing I could have done more is drive there and update their system myself. I ordered one or two times more because I loved one of their appetizers, but the service was poor so I stopped. Last night, after much time has passed since my last order, I decide to get delivery with a friend. We were hungry for snacky type foods, so I suggested Perry's. Big mistake. Once again, the address was confirmed on the phone, but we found our driver wandering my street. Good thing my friend was watching for him! He had a completely NEW WRONG ADDRESS on his slip. (I later called and after being redirected to a manager, the first employee I spoke with had obviously finally updated the system, so the manager kept making it sound like I was lying. I had a PRINTED SLIP with the WRONG address on it.) We called him over and he walked past my friend INTO MY HOUSE without asking to come in. He then proceeded to be snarky, including saying for no reason at all, "See, this isn't so difficult buddy.". Really?! So- whatever, I'm starving. I just want to eat. We open the food and find the wrong size salad (overcharged), the wrong flavor milkshake (the entire reason we picked them in the first place was for the missing milkshake flavor) and we were missing a dip. I called the restaurant and explained and was given to a manager who sounded less than happy to be talking to me. After explaining he said, "Well.... do you want me to bring you a new milk shake?" No apology or even recognition of the several errors, and he said it in a tone that implied he was going way out of his way to do me a favor. I told him no, and we settled on a refund of the difference on the salad price. How can you screw up so many times and then have the guts to be absolute jerks about it? They tried to make it seem like I was complaining to complain. You MESSED UP. REPEATEDLY. I'm starting to wish I was rude back. I wouldn't give Perry's another dime of my money if I was crawling past during a famine and the only food in miles was their greasy, flavorless beer nuggets. (Oh, and that appetizer I liked of theirs? It's terrible now. I went to bed with a stomach ache.) Thanks for nothing, Perry's.

I was there Friday evening to hear some live music. Thought I would order a meat ball sandwich while there. In all fairness the meat balls were very good but the Italian bread was was old and spongy like it had been put in a microwave to soften it. The sweet peppers were cold as of they were just pulled out of the ice box instead of been warm ed in some type of gravy. The French fries were just a hand full of fries if that and obviously cooked in oil that many other things were cooked in. Very gritty. The wait staff is very nice and friendly. I'm sorry I can only give it a two star and that's only because of the wait staff.
(2)Crystal L.
Honestly, I was a bit worried about this place when I saw the price. Got the food the cheese was missing off of my order. You know what... Not even mad. The food was so good, despite the fact i had paid for the cheese, wasn't even mad. The staff there was very welcoming and kind! Just from that alone made me want to come back again and again. I came home, looked at my boyfriend and said, Just based on walking in there and their staff I'd order from there again. He looked at me a bit confused. I am not sure what he thought of the food but i loved it.

Stopped in for a quick beef sand and a beer. The draft lite beer was overpriced and the beef was saltier then the bar snacks. Hope the rest of the menu is better. I won't test it because I won't be returning. The one star is for the pleasant bar tender and the live music. Go to Dino's for a tastier and larger beef at a lower price.

The ribs are absolutely delicious. Whenever I have a craving for ribs, Perry's is the first place I think of. They are a bit over priced which is why they didn't get 5 stars. If you feel like splurging, try this place for ribs.

Poor Service, Dirty Kitchen and Dining area. Cold pizza. See you never again.
(1)Ira S.
We went there today for the first time in several years (we liked it before) and were amazed by the remodeling. Nicely done and feels more like a real restaurant than a neighborhood place. I had the Florentine Spinach Panini (Smoked Turkey, Prosciutto, fresh Spinach, smoked Provolone and Marinara) and my companion had a Cheese, Garlic and sliced Tomato Panzarotti (like a calzone) with a bowl of their Minestrone soup. Everything was outstanding. The Panini came with French Fries, Cole Slaw and a Dill Pickle Spear, too. Attentive service and parking was a breeze, also.
(5)Northwest side chicago girl V.
Service hasn't been the same since they remodeled. Had to remind her to bring the second beer, the refill of soda... Just poor service. Hope the bad tip got the point across. Two of us had different soups. Neither were good. Now the BBQ pizza was great. I think we will start picking up and taking it home.
(2)Christopher T.
I ordered rib tips for carry out. I was quoted a 20 min pick up time. I arrived 3 min early. So the guy told me it would be up in 1 to 2 minutes. So I waited patiently. 5 minutes past by and it was still not ready. I didn't even get a courtesy apology for the extended wait time. Someone else that ordered for pick up came to pick up their food and was told 1 to 2 minutes. She obviously got her food before me even though I was waiting for 10 minutes now. After 2 minutes more of waiting I asked him how much longer it would be? He replied "soon". So after about 15 minutes of my quoted pickup time, I finally recieved my order. I just didn't appreciate the lack of customer service skills this guy had who by the way might have been the owner of the restaurant. And just the fact that I didn't even recieve an apology for waiting 15 minutes longer than I originally anticipated. I will make sure I tell all my friends and relatives about the poor service that I recieved.

Nostalgic place, however it doesn't quite live up to anything specific. If it didn't have a buffet, I'm not sure what one menu item could draw in my repeat business. Their pizza is standard; their veggie pie is tasty and unique for its thin crust. I've had the rib tips and while it sparks an interesting flavor, the sauce that is; it's nothing more than just that. The barbecue sauce is vinegary in flavor and the tips are strange cuts. Rib meat, not quite like the standard tips you get anywhere else, a different cut of meat altogether. I like Perry's because it's a colorful atmosphere to take little ones. My nieces and nephew are really digging it. The wait staff is accommodating, like Kathy, she's a personable lady and can often woo the kids to her liking. That's where the buck stops for me. Families could check this place out, especially on (as I mentioned previously) buffet nights. Hit it up on the weekend, more options available and updated with more frequency.

I have ordered Perry's Pizza at least once a year for several years. It's pretty good pizza - nothing extraordinary, but there aren't many choices for good pizza in the area. Recently I went to dine in with my family, as we all had a taste for pizza. It was really dead inside. Anyway, we sat down and started looking over the menu. Perry's has "Daily Specials" and the day we went (Thursday Night), there was Free Beer Nuggets with a $15 purchase. We asked if we can order those for our appetizer. As the waitress took our order, the man standing behind the register told her "you better make sure they are ordering $15 of food" or something along the lines of that. Seriously? There is 4 of us. What can we get for less than $15 total. Anway, Beer Nuggets. Basically, fried dough with marinara dipping sauce. It was a very generous portion. There had to be at least 50 nuggets. They were OK. No flavor really. They could have used some salt. We ordered a thin crust pizza and a pan pizza. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich because I was on a diet. I tried the pizza, again, it was OK. I like their pizza, but it's SO bland. The crust could use some salt, or some butter, or something. Not a lot of flavor in the pizza overall. The grilled chicken sandwich was awful. The breast was very, very thick - and it was even faint pink inside (probably because the breast was so darn thick that it takes longer to cook) and it was COVERED in Oregano. Literally, like it was rolled in it. I couldn't eat it after one bite - yuck. My side was a pasta salad. It tasted like refrigerator, so unfortunately I had to break my diet and eat the pizza. The server was nice, but never refilled our drinks which were empty for the majority of the time we were there. Sadly, I think my journey with Perry's will end here. I just wasn't happy with the food this past time.
(2)Meagan S.
Ordered 5 sandwiches & small pizza at 630 on a Friday night. Asked for cheese & garlic bread for the sandwiches. Food arrived warm, we live 7 minutes away. No cheese on 2 & no garlic bread on one, the order was correct on the receipt. Skirt steak sandwich was good, beef I thought was just OK. Called back to get new sandwiches, if I'm going to chat on my diet I want cheese! Customer service was at a negative 2, told it takes 30 minutes at least for the skirt steak sandwich, no refund offered or credit. Disappointed. Won't order from here again.
(2)Dan W.
When I went there I had a cheese pizza. It was a decent pizza, just very greasy. The service was slow, But, when I got the bill, it was accurate and cheap. I will definitely come back some time soon.

Have been going to Perry's for over 30 years. The Ribs are absolutely the best in the Chicago area. Perry's also does a great job catering. I have had them cater multiple parties & the food is always the correct temp. and delivered on time! Love the remodeling. Good food, great atmosphere!
(5)Ivan M.
I usually don't write reviews, but I had to for this place. I read mixed reviews on yelp and did n9t give this place a try for a long time. yesterday was my first time dining there. The place is nothing fancy but does have a neighborhood feel. The staff was very friendly and pizza was good. Moving to Park Ridge I was disappointed with the lack of good pizza places. Perry's was the best so far. I recommend Pizza with Italian beef and gardnerra peppers for toppings. that was you get two of Chicago s best foods in one.

I've lived near Perry's for years. We've ordered delivery, pick up and dined in the restaurant. I've held off writing a review because I've always held out that they could be great, not just ok. I'm finally writing a review because of one more bad experience solidly has put them off the option list and agreeing with the many other 'they're just ok' reviews on yelp. Please keep in mind that you may want to consider another option if you are ordering delivery. Our latest experience showed that they continue to not check orders. It was a simple order of the seafood tortellini with an order of spaghetti and meatballs with the sauce on the side. The seafood tortellini was good, hot and I would order it again. The spaghetti arrived - with the sauce on the pasta. When I called, I was asked if I ordered it on the side. I directed the operator to the receipt, which stated that the sauce was to be on the side. To Perry's credit, she did offer to send me an order of plain pasta. I decline already having the water heating up. If had intended to cook, I wouldn't have tried delivery for a simple order. I ended up cooking and having one more dodgy experience with Perry's. I should note that the restaurant did update the interior in the past year and the improvements look good. The new bar was well done. I frequented it several times with groups of friends for a game or event. Unfortunately, the service behind the bar mirrors the hot and miss quality of the kitchen.

::Note: Review of food & delivery service only:: Perry's is a solid place for all of your lunch and catering needs. Whenever I'm lazy, starving, and don't want to leave the office, Perry's is my go to place for fast delivery and good food. They're comparable to Jimmy John's with their freaky fast delivery - regardless of the order size. ///Favorites\\\ +Beer Nuggets ((duh)) +Zesty Veggie Flatbread +Roma Chicken Salad +Thai Chicken Wrap or Grilled Veggie Wrap ((Tip: order the dressing on the side!)) +Grilled Veggie Wrap +Jalapeno Veggie Burger +Spinach Florentine Panini Keep an eye out for daily specials too...they offer some kickass deals ((such as free beer nuggets with a $15+ order))

I have gotten the chicken tender dinner from here 2x and both times it was delicious! I also had the buffalo chicken wrap which is pretty decent. The young lady who answers the phone during the day is rather blah on the phone and in person. If she were a bit nicer, I would give this place 4 stars.
(3)Ruth S.
Went to this restaurant and while the food was ok, the wine was sooo bad. Asked for a pino noir, got some awful tasting prune juice. Asked the server if she would mind opening a fresh bottle, so she brought me a new glass of wine which was almost as bad as the first. I'm not a wine snob but won't drink box wine either plus box wine would have been a major improvement. Didn't drink the wine, paid for it and left. Don't think I'll be back

We had Perry"s cater our party and the food was amazing!!!! Delivered on time and very organized. Couldn't have asked for anything better! Ribs, chicken and pizza were outstanding! Highly recommend it and great to support a local merchant.

This is a great place to gather with friends and enjoy great times, great food, pizza and amazing ribs are my favorites.....and now great MUSIC! We enjoyed a great band last night and everything could not have been better! Perry's has a friendly neighborhood atmosphere and great food and service. We moved from Park Ridge over twenty years ago, but still come back from Milwaukee for fun at Perry's.

Perry's has been recently remodeled and is much more inviting (at least to me) than the old Perry's. They have removed their "all you can eat buffet" and added an area with a full bar. We typically order a pizza (beer pizza is great!) and listen to the live music on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30. Depending on who is playing, it can get a little crowded but it's always a fun time! They also have a great kids menu. Yes, it is not as fancy as Zia's but it's a great little pizza place. We haven't tried their ribs yet but I've heard they are good. Another plus...for a small corkage fee, they will let you bring in your own wine!

Ordered Perry's tonight for dinner. Placed order at 8:35 and was told it was coming in 35 - 40 minutes. An hour later it showed up. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap Combo and a calzone panzarotti with sausage and mushroom. The bill came to $19.50, which included delivery. Overall, the food was ok. The best part was the sausage in the panzarotti. It was strong to quite strong. Portions were large, the chicken in the wrap was somewhat rubbery. For delivery, it is a nice option on a budget or if you are looking for something to tide you over. I would have given 4 stars, but the excessive wait on a Monday night caused a one point deduction.

A couple of good meals here, but mostly bad. So much water in salad on two occasions that I couldn't eat it. Sandwich bread burned. Under cooked fries. Inconsistency of ordering things from one day to another. Boyfriend got viciously ill from the BBQ pork. The only reason we still eat there once a month is there's nothing else around. Each time we swear we'll never go back. We never learn. If you want pizza, go to Gumba Joe's.

We love this place. The stuffed pizza is great. The last delivery the pizza was a bit cool, but a few minutes in the oven and it was great. Highly recommend Perry's.
(4)Mariza B.
They have beer nuggets just like the ones in De Kalb. They're phenomenal. I drive out to Park Ridge just for them. The waitstaff is extremely friendly too. If you are craving beer nuggets in the Chicago area...you must check this place out!

We went to Perry's for the first time on a recent Sat. night with 3 other couples. The pizza and ribs were outstanding. They had an excellent band that did a range of tunes from the 70's on, playing blues, pop and even some country. It wasn't so loud that we couldn't talk. Service was very good. They had a nice sized crowd but I was surprised (and relieved) that it wasn't a packed house. We'll go back for sure. I picked up a catering menu for my office and we'll try them for some in-house luncheons.

Spaghetti with olive oil and marinara sauce is excellent. Love the live music. Jim g

Stopped in for a quick beef sand and a beer. The draft lite beer was overpriced and the beef was saltier then the bar snacks. Hope the rest of the menu is better. I won't test it because I won't be returning. The one star is for the pleasant bar tender and the live music. Go to Dino's for a tastier and larger beef at a lower price.
(1)Davis M.
The ribs are absolutely delicious. Whenever I have a craving for ribs, Perry's is the first place I think of. They are a bit over priced which is why they didn't get 5 stars. If you feel like splurging, try this place for ribs.
(4)Mike M.
Poor Service, Dirty Kitchen and Dining area. Cold pizza. See you never again.
(1)Ira S.
We went there today for the first time in several years (we liked it before) and were amazed by the remodeling. Nicely done and feels more like a real restaurant than a neighborhood place. I had the Florentine Spinach Panini (Smoked Turkey, Prosciutto, fresh Spinach, smoked Provolone and Marinara) and my companion had a Cheese, Garlic and sliced Tomato Panzarotti (like a calzone) with a bowl of their Minestrone soup. Everything was outstanding. The Panini came with French Fries, Cole Slaw and a Dill Pickle Spear, too. Attentive service and parking was a breeze, also.

Service hasn't been the same since they remodeled. Had to remind her to bring the second beer, the refill of soda... Just poor service. Hope the bad tip got the point across. Two of us had different soups. Neither were good. Now the BBQ pizza was great. I think we will start picking up and taking it home.

I ordered rib tips for carry out. I was quoted a 20 min pick up time. I arrived 3 min early. So the guy told me it would be up in 1 to 2 minutes. So I waited patiently. 5 minutes past by and it was still not ready. I didn't even get a courtesy apology for the extended wait time. Someone else that ordered for pick up came to pick up their food and was told 1 to 2 minutes. She obviously got her food before me even though I was waiting for 10 minutes now. After 2 minutes more of waiting I asked him how much longer it would be? He replied "soon". So after about 15 minutes of my quoted pickup time, I finally recieved my order. I just didn't appreciate the lack of customer service skills this guy had who by the way might have been the owner of the restaurant. And just the fact that I didn't even recieve an apology for waiting 15 minutes longer than I originally anticipated. I will make sure I tell all my friends and relatives about the poor service that I recieved.

Love Perry's.....Have tried the pizza, burgers and wings....all great! The beer nuggets are a must! We have dined in on Saturday nights and loved the live music.....definetly high on our list of neighbourhood joints....
(4)Meagan S.
Ordered 5 sandwiches & small pizza at 630 on a Friday night. Asked for cheese & garlic bread for the sandwiches. Food arrived warm, we live 7 minutes away. No cheese on 2 & no garlic bread on one, the order was correct on the receipt. Skirt steak sandwich was good, beef I thought was just OK. Called back to get new sandwiches, if I'm going to chat on my diet I want cheese! Customer service was at a negative 2, told it takes 30 minutes at least for the skirt steak sandwich, no refund offered or credit. Disappointed. Won't order from here again.

Nostalgic place, however it doesn't quite live up to anything specific. If it didn't have a buffet, I'm not sure what one menu item could draw in my repeat business. Their pizza is standard; their veggie pie is tasty and unique for its thin crust. I've had the rib tips and while it sparks an interesting flavor, the sauce that is; it's nothing more than just that. The barbecue sauce is vinegary in flavor and the tips are strange cuts. Rib meat, not quite like the standard tips you get anywhere else, a different cut of meat altogether. I like Perry's because it's a colorful atmosphere to take little ones. My nieces and nephew are really digging it. The wait staff is accommodating, like Kathy, she's a personable lady and can often woo the kids to her liking. That's where the buck stops for me. Families could check this place out, especially on (as I mentioned previously) buffet nights. Hit it up on the weekend, more options available and updated with more frequency.

I have ordered Perry's Pizza at least once a year for several years. It's pretty good pizza - nothing extraordinary, but there aren't many choices for good pizza in the area. Recently I went to dine in with my family, as we all had a taste for pizza. It was really dead inside. Anyway, we sat down and started looking over the menu. Perry's has "Daily Specials" and the day we went (Thursday Night), there was Free Beer Nuggets with a $15 purchase. We asked if we can order those for our appetizer. As the waitress took our order, the man standing behind the register told her "you better make sure they are ordering $15 of food" or something along the lines of that. Seriously? There is 4 of us. What can we get for less than $15 total. Anway, Beer Nuggets. Basically, fried dough with marinara dipping sauce. It was a very generous portion. There had to be at least 50 nuggets. They were OK. No flavor really. They could have used some salt. We ordered a thin crust pizza and a pan pizza. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich because I was on a diet. I tried the pizza, again, it was OK. I like their pizza, but it's SO bland. The crust could use some salt, or some butter, or something. Not a lot of flavor in the pizza overall. The grilled chicken sandwich was awful. The breast was very, very thick - and it was even faint pink inside (probably because the breast was so darn thick that it takes longer to cook) and it was COVERED in Oregano. Literally, like it was rolled in it. I couldn't eat it after one bite - yuck. My side was a pasta salad. It tasted like refrigerator, so unfortunately I had to break my diet and eat the pizza. The server was nice, but never refilled our drinks which were empty for the majority of the time we were there. Sadly, I think my journey with Perry's will end here. I just wasn't happy with the food this past time.
(2)Dan W.
When I went there I had a cheese pizza. It was a decent pizza, just very greasy. The service was slow, But, when I got the bill, it was accurate and cheap. I will definitely come back some time soon.
(3)Frank G.
Have been going to Perry's for over 30 years. The Ribs are absolutely the best in the Chicago area. Perry's also does a great job catering. I have had them cater multiple parties & the food is always the correct temp. and delivered on time! Love the remodeling. Good food, great atmosphere!
(5)Ivan M.
I usually don't write reviews, but I had to for this place. I read mixed reviews on yelp and did n9t give this place a try for a long time. yesterday was my first time dining there. The place is nothing fancy but does have a neighborhood feel. The staff was very friendly and pizza was good. Moving to Park Ridge I was disappointed with the lack of good pizza places. Perry's was the best so far. I recommend Pizza with Italian beef and gardnerra peppers for toppings. that was you get two of Chicago s best foods in one.

I've lived near Perry's for years. We've ordered delivery, pick up and dined in the restaurant. I've held off writing a review because I've always held out that they could be great, not just ok. I'm finally writing a review because of one more bad experience solidly has put them off the option list and agreeing with the many other 'they're just ok' reviews on yelp. Please keep in mind that you may want to consider another option if you are ordering delivery. Our latest experience showed that they continue to not check orders. It was a simple order of the seafood tortellini with an order of spaghetti and meatballs with the sauce on the side. The seafood tortellini was good, hot and I would order it again. The spaghetti arrived - with the sauce on the pasta. When I called, I was asked if I ordered it on the side. I directed the operator to the receipt, which stated that the sauce was to be on the side. To Perry's credit, she did offer to send me an order of plain pasta. I decline already having the water heating up. If had intended to cook, I wouldn't have tried delivery for a simple order. I ended up cooking and having one more dodgy experience with Perry's. I should note that the restaurant did update the interior in the past year and the improvements look good. The new bar was well done. I frequented it several times with groups of friends for a game or event. Unfortunately, the service behind the bar mirrors the hot and miss quality of the kitchen.

::Note: Review of food & delivery service only:: Perry's is a solid place for all of your lunch and catering needs. Whenever I'm lazy, starving, and don't want to leave the office, Perry's is my go to place for fast delivery and good food. They're comparable to Jimmy John's with their freaky fast delivery - regardless of the order size. ///Favorites\\\ +Beer Nuggets ((duh)) +Zesty Veggie Flatbread +Roma Chicken Salad +Thai Chicken Wrap or Grilled Veggie Wrap ((Tip: order the dressing on the side!)) +Grilled Veggie Wrap +Jalapeno Veggie Burger +Spinach Florentine Panini Keep an eye out for daily specials too...they offer some kickass deals ((such as free beer nuggets with a $15+ order))
(4)Nicole I.
I have gotten the chicken tender dinner from here 2x and both times it was delicious! I also had the buffalo chicken wrap which is pretty decent. The young lady who answers the phone during the day is rather blah on the phone and in person. If she were a bit nicer, I would give this place 4 stars.
(3)Ruth S.
Went to this restaurant and while the food was ok, the wine was sooo bad. Asked for a pino noir, got some awful tasting prune juice. Asked the server if she would mind opening a fresh bottle, so she brought me a new glass of wine which was almost as bad as the first. I'm not a wine snob but won't drink box wine either plus box wine would have been a major improvement. Didn't drink the wine, paid for it and left. Don't think I'll be back

I'm really surprised I didn't review this place last time they were horribly rude and screwed up my order, but they made a weak attempt to make it up (we got to keep our wrong order that was cold for free....! (?) ) so maybe I felt bad and decided to avoid the review. Quick catch up: I live on the same block as my parents, who haven't ordered from Perry's in YEARS. (They hate the food there.) When I called from my own phone number and confirmed my address SEVERAL times over the phone, they still sounded confused. When my food never showed up I called and found out the guy had pounded on my Mom's door at 10pm, waking her up, scaring her to death. They STILL had the wrong address. When I called they said, "Yeah.. you never answered your door." After a couple calls we get our wrong, cold food for free. I was starving. The worst part? The driver repeatedly SCOLDED ME for "not making sure they knew which house it was" and told me "next time make sure you give them the right address". The only thing I could have done more is drive there and update their system myself. I ordered one or two times more because I loved one of their appetizers, but the service was poor so I stopped. Last night, after much time has passed since my last order, I decide to get delivery with a friend. We were hungry for snacky type foods, so I suggested Perry's. Big mistake. Once again, the address was confirmed on the phone, but we found our driver wandering my street. Good thing my friend was watching for him! He had a completely NEW WRONG ADDRESS on his slip. (I later called and after being redirected to a manager, the first employee I spoke with had obviously finally updated the system, so the manager kept making it sound like I was lying. I had a PRINTED SLIP with the WRONG address on it.) We called him over and he walked past my friend INTO MY HOUSE without asking to come in. He then proceeded to be snarky, including saying for no reason at all, "See, this isn't so difficult buddy.". Really?! So- whatever, I'm starving. I just want to eat. We open the food and find the wrong size salad (overcharged), the wrong flavor milkshake (the entire reason we picked them in the first place was for the missing milkshake flavor) and we were missing a dip. I called the restaurant and explained and was given to a manager who sounded less than happy to be talking to me. After explaining he said, "Well.... do you want me to bring you a new milk shake?" No apology or even recognition of the several errors, and he said it in a tone that implied he was going way out of his way to do me a favor. I told him no, and we settled on a refund of the difference on the salad price. How can you screw up so many times and then have the guts to be absolute jerks about it? They tried to make it seem like I was complaining to complain. You MESSED UP. REPEATEDLY. I'm starting to wish I was rude back. I wouldn't give Perry's another dime of my money if I was crawling past during a famine and the only food in miles was their greasy, flavorless beer nuggets. (Oh, and that appetizer I liked of theirs? It's terrible now. I went to bed with a stomach ache.) Thanks for nothing, Perry's.

Perrys is good. They have a huge menu with everything you can think of, from pizza to sandwiches to burgers to roasted chicken to pasta. They have good thick crust pizza, they don't skimp on cheese, I made a mistake by ordering extra cheese, and I felt like i was swimming in cheese, by eating 2 slices. Haha, very very good though! Also, Ive tried there meatball sandwiches, and that was very good as well. I live so close, so I will def be coming back to try more things on the menu. Maybe the roasted chicken next time! good job perrys!
(3)Jim L.
Our company has been ordering from Perry's for years now. Incredible pizza from Park Ridge, this place has a menu where every item is great! Try their incredible ribs, the tasty wings and their amazing panzarottis too! You will not be disappointed! Also, if you need an event catered, these guys have got you covered. We have had Perry's cater a few of our events and they have always been spot on.
(5)Joanne W.
Ok, so I have had Perry's once a year for the past three years. They cater our yearly "thanks for all your hard work" party. We always get thin crust and we get quite the variety of 'za....veggie, bbq, meat lovers, cheese, cheese & sausage, pepperoni. I'm pretty sure that I've had each variety. I think Perry's is solid. The crust is crispy and they aren't stingy with their ingredients. I like the variety...the BBQ in paricular. BBQ sauce, bacon, sausage and onion? Yes, please. They always provide little side salads for us also...house & mixed greens. They are always fresh and they provide a nice variety of dressings as well. They are always prompt (at least to me). Apparently they have been catering this party for years. Yes, it's free pizza....but it's not crappy free pizza. If I lived in the area, chances are I'd be ordering from Perry's on a regular basis...for this, my ass is most grateful.
(3)Bari L.
I am a fan and enjoy their thin crust pizza it's perfect for a football game. I have gone to the restaurant for dinner and have ordered in. When we ordered in the food came quickly but it was the wrong food. luckily I caught it while the driver was still there he was very apologetic and the food we ordered came shortly after and it was still faster then they said. The restaurant itself isn't the most romantic but if you are looking for a good meal then who cares its clean and the staff is super nice and helpful. I'm defiantly looking forward to my next pizza from there even though I'm writing this at 5 in the morning.
(4)Dina L.
Groupon brought us here. The mediocre food and lousy service will ensure that we never come back. Large sign on the front window says: "BUFFET - ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS CHICKEN PIZZA $8.99 Fri 4-9 Sat 4-9 Seniors $6.99 Kids 1/2 w/Adult" We were 2 adults and 2 kids and we were there between 4 and 9 on a Satuday. Seems pretty cut and dried as to pricing, right? Well, our bill arrived and we were charged 4x $8.99. I didn't really think anything of it. A simple mistake, easily remedied. Right? Um, not so much. The waitress explained to my husband that, if a child is old enough to go up to the buffet and serve herself, no kids pricing. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Add to that, I was not impressed AT ALL with the buffet as I got a glance of it on our way in. But my husband insisted we order the buffet and we even swayed our kids to order buffet vs. from the kids menu. At any one time, there was maybe part of one pizza on the buffet. The fried chicken came out so slowly diners had to race each other when a fresh batch would come out. The salad bar was definitely weak. And there were rib tips, but not ribs. I will say the pizza was decent and the rip tips were tasty. The hot wings, fried chicken, sausage and peppers, sides and salad bar were all meh. Needless to say, we will not be back.
(1)Tom Z.
I gave this pizza a try and really liked it. I had the thin crust sausage. The crust was done just right. I liked the taste of the sauce, it was a little sweeter than others, but that's a good thing. The italian sausage was really good and just the right amount. For that matter there was just the right amount of toppings on the pizza. I look forward to returning and trying some of the other food offered.

I ordered delivery from here during a weekend and they were very nice. Not sounding like a sad robot like some other places over the phone. Not at all. That was a heart warming experience. I ordered some fried calamari and an Italian beef deluxe which included cole slaw and fries. I was gonna order a cannoli but I forgot! I wanted to see how that was.. They quoted me 45 minutes but they showed up within 30. So super cool. So here's where it sadly went down hill. I don't know if the driver was racing around hardcore but when I opened my order.. coleslaw dressing was dripping everywhere. So I had to plate everything. That's just great! now I have to wash dishes!! The order of fried calamari for 8.49 was teeny tiny! Enough for about 1 person or 1 person and 1 small child... like in the 4 yr old range. As for the calamari.. they are tiny rings but nicely battered and the calamari wasn't dried out and you don't get any heads and tentacles for those of you that aren't into that shit. The cole slaw was very bland, I threw that one out. The semi saving grace would be the fries which were kinda soggy! Oh mama likes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the italian beef was eh ok. but ugh. I should of just went to Portillo's. It sure doesn't pay to be lazy. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza in the midwest so there'd be no point for me to order from here again if I was in the area. What a waste of 23 bucks. UGH. dead to me.
(1)Ted H.
I ordered an Italian beef (with Mozzarella, cheese, onions, pepperoni, and peppers). Delivery and service was good. The sandwich was very bland. The fries were average. It's OK.
(3)Douglas G.
A nice neighborhood restaurant. It's in a beautiful space lovingly maintained so the ambiance is great. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kitchen is slow, but that's my only complaint. The salads, sandwiches, and pizzas are quite nice. I haven't tried the pastas or ribs yet but I don't doubt they are just as good. The food is not "as good as it gets" but it is good, wholesome fare. They have beer and wine, mostly the standard selections but there are a couple of real brews. My wife and I like this place and will keep coming back. Several reviewers who apparently are mostly interested in being snarkily witty have panned Perry's, but they are missing out - don't believe them or you'll miss out too on a lovely neighborhood diner.
(4)Matthew S.
I've had pretty much everything on the menus and it never disappoints. Delivery is quick and professional. I highly recommend the Thai Chicken Salad and the pizza. The toppings are always really fresh and tasty.
(4)Allan C.
I had been going to Perry's for years then moved to Southern California. Recently went and the place is still great. The ribs are fall off the bone and the thin crust pizza is delicious. I've had friends try other things on the menu and be disappointed so stick with the pizza and ribs.
(4)Mary S.
I live just blocks away from Perry's and wrote if off years ago. THEN, I got a gift card to Perry's and decided to give them another chance. I am so glad I did. First off, they have recently renovated their restaurant, and the dining space is fabulous. Warm, Cozy and really appropriate to the style of service (pub/pizz food) and area (lots of families/casual). On top of this my family was seated and attended to by a very conscientious waitress from the get-go. This always puts us in a good mood. Gettin' that glass of wine early always makes me happy! We chose pizza and some wrap sandwiches. All was very tasty, and my kids loved the wraps. I am not a big fan of thin crust pizza, but I lost the vote and that is what my table ordered....and it was very good for thin. Very crispy and lots of veges and sausage. I am kind of sad we did not get the ribs, though, since the table next door did, and I smelled them during my whole meal -- they smelled great! But that just means I'm going back, which I am most definitely looking forward to. Thanks Perry's!

The ribs are indeed 'fall off the bone', they are spectacular. Might not jump out as a rib joint, but this is as good as it gets. Pizza is dynamite, always has fresh toppings, , love the pizza buffet at lunch, let's me try all sorts of toppings I otherwise wouldn't order. Dine in service is speedy, yet pleasant. My friend loved the wings, kept asking how they were buy only rec'd grumbles while working every bit of meat off the bones. Price is right, quality superb - and would be a great place to take the family.
(5)Carmen S.
Pretty good pizza. My girlfriend and I had this last night with a bottle of wine and we were both satisfied with it. The sausage was big and tasty and there was just the right amount of sauce on the pizza. The delivery was hot and fast. I will be ordering from this place again.

I recently started living in Park Ridge (long story- living in grandma's old house until I finish grad school- I will be back in Chicago Chicago soon) My dad grew up in PR and told me I had to have Perry's. It was the best.And you get a nice 1960's feeling about the place. Ahhhhh, the good ole days!

As we were driving home from our meal at Perry's, Christopher and I compared notes as we usually do. He felt it was a 3 or 4 star, while I felt it was a 2 or 3 star place. My thought was to give it 3, but as the day passed, I found I could just not say it was A-Ok, so here we are with 2 stars to bestow. I have driven past Perry's hundreds of times on my commute out Devon Avenue and had always been mildly curious about it, so when Restaurant.com had a coupon, I went for it. The place itself is kind of cool. It has that old neighborhood kind of feel. It was pretty much empty when we walked in, but it was a Sunday afternoon, so I wasn't too surprised. Well, as to the food.... Christopher ordered the chicken florentine served over fettuccine. The menu said it was made with prosciutto, spinach, sauteed chicken and garlic, which all seemed to be there. He really loved the flavor. The big problem I had (more than Chris did) was that it was floating in liquid. The plate was literally on the verge of overflowing with thin, greasy sauce. For them to send out a dish looking like that says to me, that they really don't give a rats ass. It looked like chicken noodle soup on a plate. The waitress could have at least, drained off some of the juice before serving it. i tasted it and it was flavorful enough, but the presentation was just god awful. I ordered a half slab rib dinner. The ribs were ok, plenty tender, but the sauce was a bit sweet for my taste. The fries were ok, but when I asked for ketchup, what I got was a bottle that was so cold that I am surprised it hadn't started to freeze. The bottle was actually uncomfortable to handle. I ended up using the BBQ sauce instead so as not to spoil the fries. The slaw was about as flavorless as I have ever tasted. I am sure that some of it can be attributed to the fact it was as cold as the ketchup. I am all for keeping food properly chilled, but this was ridiculous. The waitress was nice enough, but to me there was an air of indifference in the place. It is like they have been there a long time, they have the market in the area cornered and they don't really have to try anymore. Well, I don't have to try either. I used my coupon, gave it a try and from now on I shall pass it on by!!

"Okay" is actually a pretty good word for Perry's pizza. I ordered two pizzas (cheese, vegetarian). The cheese was the better fo the two, because you can taste the sauce. The veggie was soggy, and just alright. I would possibly order from here again, in a pinch, but there are better pizza restaurants in the area.

Great pizza...but so much more on the menu. I love their salads. We like to go on weekend nights now to hear the live music...some really great talent and lots of fun!

Ok, so I have had Perry's once a year for the past three years. They cater our yearly "thanks for all your hard work" party. We always get thin crust and we get quite the variety of 'za....veggie, bbq, meat lovers, cheese, cheese & sausage, pepperoni. I'm pretty sure that I've had each variety. I think Perry's is solid. The crust is crispy and they aren't stingy with their ingredients. I like the variety...the BBQ in paricular. BBQ sauce, bacon, sausage and onion? Yes, please. They always provide little side salads for us also...house & mixed greens. They are always fresh and they provide a nice variety of dressings as well. They are always prompt (at least to me). Apparently they have been catering this party for years. Yes, it's free pizza....but it's not crappy free pizza. If I lived in the area, chances are I'd be ordering from Perry's on a regular basis...for this, my ass is most grateful.

I am a fan and enjoy their thin crust pizza it's perfect for a football game. I have gone to the restaurant for dinner and have ordered in. When we ordered in the food came quickly but it was the wrong food. luckily I caught it while the driver was still there he was very apologetic and the food we ordered came shortly after and it was still faster then they said. The restaurant itself isn't the most romantic but if you are looking for a good meal then who cares its clean and the staff is super nice and helpful. I'm defiantly looking forward to my next pizza from there even though I'm writing this at 5 in the morning.

Groupon brought us here. The mediocre food and lousy service will ensure that we never come back. Large sign on the front window says: "BUFFET - ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS CHICKEN PIZZA $8.99 Fri 4-9 Sat 4-9 Seniors $6.99 Kids 1/2 w/Adult" We were 2 adults and 2 kids and we were there between 4 and 9 on a Satuday. Seems pretty cut and dried as to pricing, right? Well, our bill arrived and we were charged 4x $8.99. I didn't really think anything of it. A simple mistake, easily remedied. Right? Um, not so much. The waitress explained to my husband that, if a child is old enough to go up to the buffet and serve herself, no kids pricing. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Add to that, I was not impressed AT ALL with the buffet as I got a glance of it on our way in. But my husband insisted we order the buffet and we even swayed our kids to order buffet vs. from the kids menu. At any one time, there was maybe part of one pizza on the buffet. The fried chicken came out so slowly diners had to race each other when a fresh batch would come out. The salad bar was definitely weak. And there were rib tips, but not ribs. I will say the pizza was decent and the rip tips were tasty. The hot wings, fried chicken, sausage and peppers, sides and salad bar were all meh. Needless to say, we will not be back.

I gave this pizza a try and really liked it. I had the thin crust sausage. The crust was done just right. I liked the taste of the sauce, it was a little sweeter than others, but that's a good thing. The italian sausage was really good and just the right amount. For that matter there was just the right amount of toppings on the pizza. I look forward to returning and trying some of the other food offered.

I ordered delivery from here during a weekend and they were very nice. Not sounding like a sad robot like some other places over the phone. Not at all. That was a heart warming experience. I ordered some fried calamari and an Italian beef deluxe which included cole slaw and fries. I was gonna order a cannoli but I forgot! I wanted to see how that was.. They quoted me 45 minutes but they showed up within 30. So super cool. So here's where it sadly went down hill. I don't know if the driver was racing around hardcore but when I opened my order.. coleslaw dressing was dripping everywhere. So I had to plate everything. That's just great! now I have to wash dishes!! The order of fried calamari for 8.49 was teeny tiny! Enough for about 1 person or 1 person and 1 small child... like in the 4 yr old range. As for the calamari.. they are tiny rings but nicely battered and the calamari wasn't dried out and you don't get any heads and tentacles for those of you that aren't into that shit. The cole slaw was very bland, I threw that one out. The semi saving grace would be the fries which were kinda soggy! Oh mama likes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the italian beef was eh ok. but ugh. I should of just went to Portillo's. It sure doesn't pay to be lazy. I'm not the biggest fan of pizza in the midwest so there'd be no point for me to order from here again if I was in the area. What a waste of 23 bucks. UGH. dead to me.

I ordered an Italian beef (with Mozzarella, cheese, onions, pepperoni, and peppers). Delivery and service was good. The sandwich was very bland. The fries were average. It's OK.

A nice neighborhood restaurant. It's in a beautiful space lovingly maintained so the ambiance is great. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kitchen is slow, but that's my only complaint. The salads, sandwiches, and pizzas are quite nice. I haven't tried the pastas or ribs yet but I don't doubt they are just as good. The food is not "as good as it gets" but it is good, wholesome fare. They have beer and wine, mostly the standard selections but there are a couple of real brews. My wife and I like this place and will keep coming back. Several reviewers who apparently are mostly interested in being snarkily witty have panned Perry's, but they are missing out - don't believe them or you'll miss out too on a lovely neighborhood diner.

I've had pretty much everything on the menus and it never disappoints. Delivery is quick and professional. I highly recommend the Thai Chicken Salad and the pizza. The toppings are always really fresh and tasty.

I had been going to Perry's for years then moved to Southern California. Recently went and the place is still great. The ribs are fall off the bone and the thin crust pizza is delicious. I've had friends try other things on the menu and be disappointed so stick with the pizza and ribs.

Beer nuggets are a different thing to have on a menu. Had to try them because the were a staple food of where my wife went to college. All it is is fried dough with marinara. Surprisingly pretty damn good. Along with their thin crust pizza it was pretty good. They have some good weekly specials. The 2 times I have been in there the staff has been very friendly. Yes there are probably some better pizza places in the area but Perry's offers a lot more on their menu. Might try their ribs next.

Perry's is awesome. You can't beat the neighborhood joint where the owner will get to know you by first name if you go more than once. The hot wing dinner with garlic bread is a tasty treat that mainstream restaurants cannot duplicate. Also, if you go to a rib joint and order seafood you are probably not going to get good food (comment below).

Ahhhh the memories. I have been eating here since before I can remember. The pizza here comes in big greasy hunks and I love it. The wings here are also really good. They use a sweet-hot sauce that is actually pretty unique. As far as Park Ridge goes, this is by far the best pizza around. The delivery is also surprisingly fast. They will quote you an hour, then be at your door in 25 minutes.

I grew up eating Perry's. This was the place to go for pizza in Park Ridge. Unfortunately, the quality has changed and I have to cross this place off of our list. The last couple times we ordered, the pizzas were horrible! There was way too much sauce, not enough cheese, and it was burnt and nasty! It tasted like they opened a jar of tomato paste and spread it all over the crust without seasoning. It was just not the Perry's that I used to love. I hope it goes back to how it used to be!

Ahh, Perry's. Beer Nuggets. I had my first pepperoni pizza here when I was a wee lad. I still come back for the beer nuggets. And the pepperoni pizza. I think their sauce has gotten a little too sweet in the last few years, but it's still very tasty. Probably one of my favorites in the PR area, next to Lou's, of course.

The ribs are indeed 'fall off the bone', they are spectacular. Might not jump out as a rib joint, but this is as good as it gets. Pizza is dynamite, always has fresh toppings, , love the pizza buffet at lunch, let's me try all sorts of toppings I otherwise wouldn't order. Dine in service is speedy, yet pleasant. My friend loved the wings, kept asking how they were buy only rec'd grumbles while working every bit of meat off the bones. Price is right, quality superb - and would be a great place to take the family.

Pretty good pizza. My girlfriend and I had this last night with a bottle of wine and we were both satisfied with it. The sausage was big and tasty and there was just the right amount of sauce on the pizza. The delivery was hot and fast. I will be ordering from this place again.

I recently started living in Park Ridge (long story- living in grandma's old house until I finish grad school- I will be back in Chicago Chicago soon) My dad grew up in PR and told me I had to have Perry's. It was the best.And you get a nice 1960's feeling about the place. Ahhhhh, the good ole days!
