Yelp.com Review - by The Sock S.

4.0 of 5 stars. A classic French restaurant, Le Perigord is one of a dying breed. The decor shows it's age, but remains elegant if not a little weathered. I have been several times, though to be honest none were of...

An unforgettably mediocre dinner at Le Perigord. I understand it's Restaurant Week but that's starting to become synonymous with a week of being served tiny portions of cheaply made food. Hmmm, maybe that's a...

When i first walked up to Le Perigord, I thought I was at my grandmother's apartment building. The restaurant looked more like a lobby than it did a place to eat. No one was there to seat me but fortnuately my...
