Had no…read moreexpectations because, like I said, it was cold, they were the closest place to take shelter and I saw a coffee bar. Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad. The have a nice sized coffee bar, decorated beautifully with some pretty delicious looking pastries. I'm on an anti-sweet phase so I'm basing my opinion on only on appearance. Then there's a seating area when you can eat, served by a friendly attentive staff and an adjacent boutique area where you can purchase housewares, clothing and other cool stuff. I'm not in Maplewood all that often, generally when I'm shopping at the equally awesome City Workshop but when I do, I always make sure to hit up Perch. You should too. 1/2 star deduction because they don't offer fake sugar, just that Stevia crap which is gross.

I absolutely loved the teriyaki Salmon salad last time and switched it up for the Ahi Tuna Sandwich this time. Portions are decent and after the soup you will be full. The ambiance of the place is definitely the best part. You get an Alice in Wonderland kind of vibe. It can get busy during lunch hours but if are able to get window seatings you'll get a view of the New York skyline (if the city pollution allows) The only negative is they're drinks are more on the pricier side that. I get the alcoholic ones but I'm referring to soda, coffee, etc

She worked on 7/29 and I arrived at 3:00pm. She had absolutely NO customer service skills. I asked to be sat at the counter before my friend arrived so I could order a drink and a snack and do some work. This seemed to be the most insane request because she told me to just sit in the waiting area? I know I couldn't be sat until my party arrived so I wanted to get my own check first while I ordered something small. She was really apprehensive and made me feel like I was the biggest inconvenience. As someone who's worked in food service, I understand sections and if the counter was not being served I did not want someone to have to go out of their way to serve me. Her attitude made me feel like a server would maybe be upset with me? So I offered to just sit at the front where she has initially suggested because the situation started getting really uncomfortable and she just kinda stared at me. That already started my visit off on a really weird note Next thing she did: I paid for my food before my friend arrived because I don't dine and dash??? I know I needed to pay my check before I got sat with my friend. AS I AM STANDING UP TO GO TO THE HOSTESS STATION TO BE SAT WITH MY FRIEND SHE POINTS AT MY AREA AND SAYS "You need to pay for that!!" Like no way???? Of course I paid. I was SO offended she thought I wouldn't ??? All around she is hurting your business by being the first person you interact with. Every other employee was fabulous and kind. Like I said my server and the food were great. I just have never felt so unwanted or like such a hassle for simply wanting to buy food?? I am a paying customer I would never want to take up space or money away from any servers. I know how the industry gets. All in all: it's a good idea to talk to her about how to treat customers

The wait staff very attentive and accommodating to your needs. I ordered the So Cal burger. It tasted so fresh and great ingredients. It is a Breaded chicken cutlet,sharp Wisconsin cheddar, avocado, pico de gallo, roasted tomato aioli, brioche bun. The bun was so soft like it just came out the oven and all ingredients paired so well together.The chicken had a crisp to the texture and moist not dry. I had the maple-Dijon salad as my side. To be dressing was so tasty with fresh lettuce. I fell in love with the freshly made pita chips and feta dip it was a shareable and menu special. I had a mocha frappe and the way it came out looked perfect! It was blended very well. Our waiter he also made it a pleasant experience. Very accommodating to however and whatever we needed. The ambiance is very updated and a relaxed vibe to it. It has a spacious area not on top of each other .They are very pleasant as soon as you're greeted in until your leaving out.

The olive oil didn't seem to pair super well with it though. Got the Adana kebab and mixed grill to go (sampled all the items at the restaurant while still hot). Chicken shish- fairly tender. Slightly charred. Good flavor Lamb shish- cooked ~ medium with a little pink. Good flavor but could be a bit more tender. I do prefer my meats medium rare so it could just be that. Adana kebab- Tender, good flavor. I think it could've been a bit juicier? Burger- super tender and full of flavor. Best meat by far. Veggies and rice- both very good.

People waiting for tables are awkwardly clustered at the door staring at everyone eating. The cesar wrap was unfortunate and had hardly any dressing. It was served warm which made the lettuce mushy and weird. The mushy lettuce wasn't a great mix with the unseasoned chicken. Not the worst sandwich I've had but far from the best. The verdict: mediocre

I saw the good reviews so I was disappointed when I received my desserts. Most of the cake slices were around $7, but when I asked for a cheesecake or pistachio one, one slice was $13 which I found to be expensive so I did not get that one. My friends and I decided on 3 cakes: strawberry, Oreo, and chocolate. I don't think I will ever be returning - the cakes tasted old. The best way to describe it was a like it came from a chain supermarket - lacking flavor and not up to fresh quality. The only one that was edible was the chocolate slice. We felt so bad to have to throw away the other two cakes, but they were not good at all. It was a waste of money to pay so much for a slice and not eat it.
