Perso accommodated a gluten-free vegetarian and a seafood-loving diner with standout dishes including house-made ricotta, miso mushrooms, royal red shrimp, and Romanesco broccoli. The reviewer praises the food, knowledgeable staff, and open-kitchen experience, and recommends sharing starters and sides.
