The Esping family opened the doors to "Perry’s” for dinner in 2001, but in 2009 renamed the restaurant “The Place at Perry's” in an agreement with Houston-based Perry’s Steakhouse and Grill. The Place at Perry’s was critically acclaimed from the start, with top reviews for its premium steaks and seafood and top-notch wine list. In 2009, The Dallas Morning News dining critic Leslie Brenner reaffirmed its place as a premier Dallas dining destination, awarding it four stars. For nine years, the Espings and their team of loyal employees, many who helped open the restaurant in 2001, have cultivated strong relationships with their guests, whose faces and photographs don the restaurant walls, through excellent service, outstanding food and a uniquely Dallas atmosphere.
