Inventive Japanese cooking with standout sushi and udon carbonara in a buzzy Adams Morgan space, but service inconsistency, drag brunch communication issues, and a mandatory 20% fee temper the experience.
Perry's Restaurant delivers competitive quality with exceptional sushi freshness and inventive dishes like udon carbonara that justify its strong reputation. However, quality varies noticeably across visits—some guests encounter dry fish or greasy karaage—and service pacing falters during busy periods, preventing the consistency needed for a higher grade. The rooftop setting and Adams Morgan location add appeal, making it a worthwhile destination for contemporary Japanese dining despite operational inconsistencies.
One caveat: Service inconsistency: delays for ordering or checks during busy periods
