The Perch has unbelievably hospitable staff, it’s location and ambience are incomparable and it’s very LA. The food is French bistro style at its highest level. Make a reservation and stick to their request for attire. Just loved the place!

We celebrated a birthday here and want to rave about the delicious food and the amazing service. The seafood salad was fresh and appetizing, the osso bucco was incredibly delicious. There was so much food we each had a take home box. Order the tiramisu for dessert. Beautifully plated, and fabulous.

There is a great selection of items for dinner. The salads are excellent and if you choose the "smaller" luncheon size it is still huge so keep that in mind. Plenty of seating inside and out.

Everything was amazing! Loved it all. Only complaint is that the chairs are incredibly uncomfortable. Cushions would help a lot.

We love this place. Feels authentically French Moroccan like you’re at a cool little place in the south of France with legit French style couscous salad, that we love. We also had the couscous entree and the chicken tagine, both bursting with flavor. The passionfruit lime pie was literally heaven on earth! We love the ambiance with a lovely patio full of fruit trees. The inside bar is quite loud but looked really fun for the young crowd. If you want to actually talk, ask for the far corners of the patio. We were there on a Friday night so maybe the DJ is not as loud on the weeknights and in the early evening, but we still had a great time. They were just a bit overwhelmed when we arrived so initially the service was slow but our waiter was lovely and once the food started, it all came out in a timely manner and it was all delicious.
