Took my out-of-town sister for Lunch. She is the family cook that was taught by our father. Been To Italy x3 also. Bruno greeted us. Nice seeing him in front. Emma was our great server we Loved. OMG we had been away too long. Food is so amazing. A Goat Bruschetta, Cheese sticks and wine kicked off the feast.Lobster Bisque and Lobster Ravioli were over the top great. Sis ordered the Penne Calabrian that had a nice zesty warmth to it that I tasted, and the sausages in it were super. We ended our lunch with a Limoncello slice of cake that was like being on a vacation high. Eat Local, eat downtown, and go here asap. An OUTSTANDING Tucson escape.

A great little spot downtown!We've been wanting to check out this place for a while and decided to try it for a birthday dinner. This restaurant is small, so reservations are highly recommended. Also, it's recommended to call at least a week in advance to get your reservation. If you wait until the week of you're likely not going to get in. We were not able to get a reservation so we got to the restaurant about 10 minutes before they opened to grab one of their walk-in tables outside. We ordered fried oysters, bacon wrapped dates, sea bass with linguine Alfredo, and the gnocchi with lobster. We also tried the mascarpone limoncello cake and it was divine! Everything was absolutely delicious! The portions are large so we were able to take food home to eat the next day. I can't wait to go back to try other things!

Perche No in downtown Tucson offers a delightful Italian dining experience. The lobster ravioli, penne positano, and Caesar salad were all excellent--the salad crisp and refreshing, the pastas hot, flavorful, and perfectly al dente. While the staff was a bit stretched on a busy night, they still made us feel welcomed. Great food, warm atmosphere--I'd happily return!

Was in Tucson and looking for a place to grab a bite for dinner and happened to see Perche No Italian Bistro and thought why not give them a try!We were seated right away, looking around I noticed what a cool lil vibe they have. I like the way it is set up.After checking out the menu I was pretty excited to see they had bacon wrapped dates and knew that was the appetizer I needed to have! They were dates stuffed with pepper jack cheese and wrapped in bacon served with an aioli sauce. I liked this twist on the bacon wrapped dates.For my main meal I had ordered the pollo parmigiana but with a linguine alfredo. Everything was cooked perfectly, just not much flavor. Service was great , love the look of the place and glad to have given it a try.

We found ourselves in downtown Tucson on a rainy Thursday evening with a craving for Italian. Of course, Yelp made some awesome recommendations, and at the top of the list was this little gem.Perfectly tiny (maybe 15 tables?) and charming, we were not disappointed. The service was great and the food delightful.We shared the bruschetta and a delicious bowl of their tomato soup, then finished it off by splitting an order of their Ravioli del Zucca - everything was great! We were too full for dessert, but will be back to sample a few next time!

Perche No is a lovely little Italian bistro with excellent food and service and an intimate ambiance. It would work well for a date night or a family dinner! We had dinner there and absolutely loved our dishes. We got the Pollo Piccata (chicken breast topped with a lemon white wine sauce, served with sauteed mixed vegetables) and one of the specials, Short Rib Tortellacci (short rib tortellacci tossed in a madeira wine cream sauce with shiitake mushrooms). Both were good, but I was particularly wowed by the tortellacci. The pasta was a beautiful texture and flavor, and was stuffed full of perfectly-cooked, super flavorful short rib that paired superbly with the mushroom sauce. I would order this again in a heartbeat! We also treated ourselves to dessert: Mousse al Cioccolatoand Italian Sorbetti. The lemon sorbet was light and very punchy -- it'd be a dream on a hot summer evening. The sorbet comes in whatever fruit the flavor is, which is a fun touch! The chocolate mousse was deliciously, exorbitantly rich -- I actually couldn't finish it, even though it wasn't a large portion, so I ended up taking over half of it home. Perche No is pretty small, so I'd definitely recommend a reservation!

So disappointed. We made reservations several days ago. When we got there they said they had 2 reservations under the same last name and our only choice was to sit on the patio on a cold windy night. We tried it for a minute but could not do it. Very poorly run. We will not be back.
