read morePeriyali, a classic NYC gem known for its amazing Greek cuisine and top-notch service, seems to have lost some of its charm according to recent reviews. Customers have expressed disappointment in the pricing, inconsistent quality of dishes, slow service, and a loud atmosphere. However, the restaurant still receives praise for its delicious food such as grilled octopus and beans dip, as well as for its attentive and knowledgeable waitstaff. It's recommended to give Periyali a try for a cozy, elegant dining experience in the heart of NYC.
