RICHMOND, Va. — Richmond is home to many, many wonderful restaurants. The food scene in Richmond, Virginia is so strong, that there is an entire podcast dedicated to it (shameless plug for the CBS 6 food podcast Eat It, Virginia) . But one Richmond restaurant has risen above the rest, at least in the eyes of Yelp reviewers, to land on Yelp’s Top 100 US Restaurants 2024 .
And that restaurant is Perly’s.
When you drive by Perly’s on East Grace Street in downtown Richmond, there is often a crowd of people waiting outside for their chance to eat “old-school Jewish cuisine with modern flair.”
Yelp ranked Perly’s #96 on its Top 100 list.
“I love the casual atmosphere, friendly staff, quick service, quality of food, and the price is more than reasonable,” Yelp Elite user Moni T. said in a quote featured on the ranking website. “When it comes to sandwiches, a classic Reuben cannot go wrong. The portion size is huge, the combination of the layered corned beef, kraut, and cheese, it is heavenly.”
