Not sure what the other reviewers experienced here, but I frequent this place at least 1-2 times a month and love the food. I was there the other night for dinner and the server was great, funny and attentive. Maybe they've made some improvements, but I think the food is always fresh and a great deal for the price. I'd recommend the fondue, I LOVE the rosemary chicken and the Waldorf salad!

The people who work here are unpleasant and out to lunch - unfortunately, at a different restaurant. Almost impossible to get service here and the blah, uninspired food in no way makes up for the general ick factor of this place. Wish so much an inexpensive sandwich-salad cafe would open up on fifth (s'nice is - nice - but repetitive) anyway, Perch sure isn't it.

This place looks cool, and the menu sounds good enough, which is probably why I've returned 2 more times after an initial bad experience. Last vist was for brunch on a Saturday. Chicken sausage/egg sandwich- Mc Donalds quality eggs, nealrly impossible to bite through sausage. Bread was good though. Side salad I ordered with it - Awful! Mostly wilted greens, cold cardboard tomatoes, and a dressing that was some kind of cornstarch thickened sweet-sour stuff. And it's a shame that neither the cook or the server cared to notice that it all stated with a bunch of visibly slimey greens. The coffee was good enough, but I waited forever for a refill (all the while I was waiting to try and send back the salad). By the time the server finally came near, we had to practically stand to flag her down. Wife didn't like her meal either...unsalted potatoes and spinach, super sweet spoonbread. No 4th try from us, sorry.

The Turkey & Bacon Club off their Brunch menu is incomparable! Pillow-soft focaccia, guacamole, cheddar, turkey and bacon make for such a satisfying combination -- and a pretty sizable portion, I might add! Yeah, the service is pretty slow, but for a leisurely weekend brunch it's not such a bad thing.

I went here for lunch because it had wifi. When I walked in, an exhausted waitress recommended a seat for me and I gladly took it and set up my computer. As she was seating me she asked if I'd like anything to drink to start and I wholeheartedly answered, "Yes! A coffee please!" She left me with the menu and I immediately decided on the soup and salad, provided that the soup of the day was something I would like. She never came back to answer questions or take my order. Instead, I heard the table next to me order and then the table seated next to me (well after me) give their order. That was only after a woman working there came up to ask for my menu back. I looked at her confused and she assured me it would come back to me, which it didn't, nor did she until... 30 minutes later the same woman who took my menu asked me to leave my table, saying she needed it. I was amazed and she insisted. I explained that I never even ordered and that was too much of a hassle. I would just leave.

I was given a gift certificate here and after my first meal, I never went back to use the rest of it. The french toast was stale and bacon (like I've read of other reviews) burned. Worst brunch I've had in the neighborhood.

Tried to go to perch for brunch. The server didn't come over for a minimum of 5 minutes to even take our drink order. Another 10 minutes to take our drink order. After waiting 30 MINUTES for a bowl of oatmeal, we decided to leave. The "manager" charged us for our two drinks we had while waiting there for a good hour and told us with a big smile "sorry, first come first serve!" when the restaurant was near empty.
