Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille to Offer Chop for 79 Cents

Chicago (April 15, 2025)—Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille is going back—way back—to when the restaurant first opened as a butcher shop in 1979 with a #FlashbackFriday event. The event will offer a 79-cent Pork Chop Friday lunch to the first 100 lucky visitors at all three Chicago-area locations. Perry’s Oak Brook, Schaumburg, and Vernon Hills will host the event on a secret date in the near future.

On #FlashbackFriday, the first 100 people in line outside of each Perry’s restaurant at 10:30 a.m. will receive cards redeemable for a 79-cent Pork Chop Friday lunch that day. The exact date of #FlashbackFriday will only be announced via Perry’s social media channels, so fans are encouraged to follow Perry’s on Facebook (Facebook.com/PerrysDining), X (@PerrysDining), and Instagram (@Perrys_Steakhouse) to find out when the event will take place at the three Chicago-area locations. Reservations are NOT valid with this promotion.

“1979 marks a very important year for Perry’s, and we are thrilled to bring #FlashbackFriday to Chicagoland,” said Chris Perry, president and owner of Perry’s Restaurants. “We’ve come a long way from our days as a butcher shop in 1979 to having three steakhouses in the Chicago area, and we’ve felt welcomed and embraced by the Chicago community along the way. This event is just a small token of our appreciation.”

Perry’s Famous Seven-Finger-High Pork Chop Dinner Cut

Perry’s Famous Pork Chop (Dinner-cut) is a seven-finger-high chop that is hand-selected, cured, roasted, slow-smoked, and caramelized. It is topped with Perry’s signature herb-garlic butter sauce and carved tableside.

Pork Chop Friday Lunch features a lunch-cut portion of the famous chop with whipped potatoes and homemade applesauce for only $19.00.

Every Friday at lunch only, Perry’s serves over 13,000 pork chops company-wide, across its 22 steakhouse locations. Perry’s Oak Brook, Schaumburg, and Vernon Hills are open for lunch only on Fridays from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. The full lunch and dinner menu is also available at lunch, while the chop's table-carving presentation is reserved for Perry's dinner service only.

Patrons must be 21 years or older to be eligible for the Flashback Friday 79-cent Pork Chop Lunch. This special offer is for dine-in guests only and is available on a first-come, first-served basis for the first 100 people in line when Perry’s opens at 10:30 a.m. that day.
