Planning Your Visit

    The Per Se Dress Code

    Per Se applies the same jacket requirement as Yountville, in a city where that is less unusual. The practical difference is that most guests arrive from an office or a hotel rather than from a day of wine tasting.

    The standard

    Jackets for gentlemen; business-formal to formal for all guests. A dark suit is never wrong here, and the room skews slightly more formal than Yountville in the evening.

    The salon is a touch more relaxed but still smart — this is not a place for casual dress.

    Practical notes

    Coats are checked at the entrance, which matters in a New York winter when you are arriving in outerwear over evening dress.

    The restaurant is on the fourth floor of a shopping complex; arriving from the mall level in daytime clothes is a common miscalculation.
