Per Se New York. Per Se restaurant is a complex design portrait of world-class chef Thomas Keller, reflecting his unique brand of hospitality. Both elegant and accessible, this quintessential Manhattan enclave, located in the new Time Warner Center, utilizes natural materials — wood, stone, metal and glass — enriched by custom fabrics, rich textures, and unusual finishes in a soothing palette of chocolate, caramel and cream tones. The space is serene, but not spare; tailored yet luxurious. Classic modern design elements set the stage for this rare culinary experience.
