About Per Se

Thomas Keller opened Per Se in 2004 on the fourth floor of the Time Warner Center overlooking Columbus Circle and Central Park, and it has held three Michelin stars continuously since 2006. The nine-course tasting menu is the New York companion to The French Laundry: precise classical technique applied to the finest available ingredients, with the cornets — smoked salmon tartare in tuile cones — as the first taste that announces the evening's intention. The room is calm and formal in the way that only rooms built expressly for serious dining can be. The views of Central Park at night are extraordinary. Per Se is, by any measure, one of the most accomplished restaurants in America.
