Taverna is a warm and inviting neighborhood restaurant that offers a truly Italian experience without having to leave Texas. Our Italian chefs strive to create the perfect menu using seasonal ingredients for their surprising entrees; every day we present a variety of northern Italian delights from simple comforts such as pan seared sea bass to delicate pasta and fabulous risotto.Risotto is indeed our flagship dish. We only use Carnaroli rice – the “king of the rice”; thanks to its particular characteristics and firm texture the Carnaroli grain maintains its shape during the slow cooking required for a perfect and creamy risotto. Our broad offering includes truffle oil and Parmigiano risotto, bay scallops with home made pesto and an inspired Vin Santo risotto with asparagus and prosciutto.A taverna in Italy is a special place where customers become friends and family. Here we celebrate the essence of hospitality and farm-to-table cooking reflecting our authentic Italian style.

Perry’s is the best! We are always ready to plan our next visit because of the wonderful food, service, and just overall - the best place for a special dinner. Tabitha was our server tonight and the constant watch over by the manager made our visit a most wonderful night out. Thanks so much for the impeccable customer care - counting the days until we get to come back to be pampered with the enjoyment.

The ambiance was perfect, the waiter Remington was stellar, the food was to die for. we had the 16oz ribeye steaks and they was cooked to perfection as well as the Chilean sea bass. The shareable sides were bar none we had the mac and cheese, bang bang broccoli and the short rib fried rice. The cotton candy martini were very enjoyable and the bday cake was massive and decadent. We will be back soon!
