Perry's opened a new concept; CARVE American Grille, that showcases comfort-food-inspired grill-fired options. CARVE was carefully selected for our special and rare, once-in-a-year 4 sisters-date. Upon entering you are warmly welcomed by their lovely staff, and then the modern, open, but warm and classy setting.
Drawn to the option of the CARVE board that serves 4 people and offers a variety of many favorites, we unanimously decided to have that for dinner. And because we were early, we were also able to enjoy a drink at the bar during their Happy Hour till 5:00 pm.
Each one of us chose a different drink. Their large selection of wine options allowed one to try a sip before choosing final. The Lavender Field Forever is LOVED by its name, and definitely recommendable for its soothing fragrance.
The Booster normally comes 'virgin'/ non-alcoholic, and looked so pretty with all the pineapple and fresh mint. I had to order one too with rum upon seeing the beautiful presentation of this mixed drink.
Now while waiting for all to be present, Filet Tenderloin Toast was ordered.
MAGNIFICENT! All the flavors and presentation was ON POINT. We love this appetizer and couldn't wish for a better start of the evening.
Filet Tenderloin is a MUST-order! For Real.
Now, let's talk about the CARVE board. It's HUGE!
And we had extra sides (perfectly grilled) sweet Siracha Brussels sprouts, (deliciously creamy and savory) smoked Mac & cheese, and the lovely presented Cheffy Whipped Potatoes (with capers and onions on the side, served in the cutest little pans).
Then the sizzling grilled platter came to the table, presenting 14 oz. Smoked Sliced NY Strip, 16 oz. Sliced Caramelized Prime Rib, 12 oz. Sliced Chateaubriand; 4 Hog Heavens, 4 Shrimp Brochettes, and 4 Lobster Corn Dog Balls. Served with au jus and Truffle Merlot and steaks topped with CARVE Steak Butter.
Very flavorful! We ate till we explode and some more, and then to take some home.
But couldn't resist to top off the entire dining experience on a sweet note. Did I mention SPECTACULAR?
The flaming cherries jubilee pie came in big and spectacular! A torched dessert with toasted graham shell filled with lemon-vanilla cream covered in warm Montmorency tart red cherries and a cloud of meringue, flamed tableside. Wow.
Speechless, stunned and satisfied.
Gregg was our guy and his exceptional guidance thru this experience deserves recognition. His knowledge and insight in everything in & around, working with our nut- and mustard seed allergy, recommendations to match our needs, was top notch. We definitely look forward visiting him at Perry's newest concept; VERDAD, true modern Mexican, next door from CARVE.
Thank you CARVE for welcoming us, serving excellence, and accommodating our needs. We look forward to exploring more of what you have to offer.
