We are so blessed to have been able to serve so many wonderful people during the past 4 years we’ve been in Williamstown!
We have aggregated all the great things people have said about us, our food, and our service all into one place here on the website. And we would be more than honored if you have an experience to share with the world, that you take the opportunity to leave your own review of our Pera Bistro on the social media venue of your choice.
Originally from Turkey, my passion for food brought me to the US in 2001 to study Hotel and Restaurant Management in Connecticut at Cesar Ritz College which is based in Switzerland. Before this time I worked in beautiful four and five star hotels in both Turkey and London this prepped me for a lifelong dream to not only own my own restaurant, but to own a beautiful restaurant I could be proud of. After graduating from Cesar Ritz College I followed my internship opportunity to Florida where I began working at the world renowned Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, FL.
While living in Florida in an effort to become well rounded to the field I also spent time working at PGA National Resort Hotel, and at Club Collete in Palm Beach. I then did my MBA in Business in West Palm Beach, FL. In 2011 we came to Williamstown, Western Massachusetts, where I took over the space where Pera Bistro is currently located and fulfilled my dream. There was no Mediterranean inspired restaurant in the Northern Berkshire area so I thought that it would be fitting to be the first.
