The story
The story of Perry's Steakhouse & Grille begins not in a white-tablecloth dining room but behind a meat counter. In 1979, Bob Perry opened a modest butcher shop in Houston, building a neighborhood following on the strength of his meat selection and straightforward service. By 1986, his son Chris Perry had persuaded him to add dining tables — a small but consequential decision. The concept proved so popular that Chris went on to open Perry's Steakhouse & Grille in 1993, and what started as a single family business has since grown into one of the country's most recognized steakhouse groups, with locations across Texas and in cities from Chicago to Miami.
Perry's Steakhouse & Grille has built its reputation on a philosophy the brand calls Rare and Well Done® — a commitment to both the quality of USDA Prime beef and the precision of how it's served. The dining room experience leans into that butcher-shop heritage: attentive staff perform tableside carvings of the Famous Pork Chop, a signature that has become closely identified with the brand. The bar program — Perry's Bar 79 — rounds out the offer with handcrafted cocktails, craft beer, and a curated portfolio of Reserve Wines, the latter recognized with a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence.
Situated at 2100 Olive St. in Dallas, this Perry's Steakhouse & Grille location brings the full steakhouse experience to the Park District. The menu spans USDA Prime cuts, fresh seafood, and signature selections, staying true to the breadth of quality that has defined the Perry's name for more than four decades. Private dining and event catering are available for groups, and outdoor seating adds flexibility for guests who prefer an open-air setting.
Across more than 20 steakhouse locations nationwide, Perry's has remained consistent in one regard: the insistence that top-quality food and attentive service are inseparable. The Dallas steakhouse carries that same standard — a place where the legacy of a family-run meat market still shapes every plate that leaves the kitchen.
