here is the perry's champions experience: arrive to nice and cordial valet parkers; enter to find no fewer than three young snooty bimbos who will look at you like you're less than the pieces of meat the restaurant serves. i entered in a suit jacket with my wife without a reservation on a saturday night at 6:30 pm and was dismissed by the lead bimbo with a repeated hand-waving gesture and a command to go find a table in thebararea. once inside, the staff took about 30 minutes to get to us. we were there for the $44 anniversary dinner and the bill, with two drinks and a side dish, came to $125, before the tip (yes, it adds up quickly and everything is a la carte and many common drinks--$5 elsewhere--are in the $12+ range at perry's). we had to ask for bread, which took 25 minutes to arrive. food was superb, service was a bit stiff (no pleasantries, very robotic "how is everything tasting?"). takeout containers were same quality as los cucos--pure mushy white non-microwave-safe styrofoam. upon leaving, bimbos said not even a hint of "thank you" despite an empty foyer. valet guys were very polite and made us feel like vips.
p.s. also have visited perry's at memorial city and never had an issue with snootiness there--just pure professionalism throughout. that restaurant is a class act from start-to-finish and is exemplary among high-end houston-area steakhouses.
