Review: Pero's in Powell

Just off I-75 at the Powell exit, we have a new community asset: Pero's, a family-friendly restaurant that offers up nostalgia along with some fabulous food. Decades ago, Jerry and I were partners in a business that was located along Kingston Pike. Three or four blocks away was the original Pero's Steakhouse. While the steaks were good, it was the Greek salad and the pasticcio that kept us coming back.

I am happy to report that the new restaurant makes a killer pasticcio, not to mention ravioli. We have not yet had the Greek salad. In its former incarnation, it was a good choice for lunch. But the side salads, one tossed, one a Caesar, that we had last evening bode well for everything in that section of the menu.

Our food was delicious, service was prompt and professional, and we took home enough of the generous portions of pasta for another meal. At just over $50 for two including beverage, tax and tip, Pero's is a great value.

Did we mention the freshly baked dinner rolls that came with the entrée?

Look for additional reviews of the food in this space in the future. We are happy to have a new local place that we can return to often.
