    Dinner at Pearls was all really good. Great drinks, sinful appetizer and delicious bbq. Only complaint was we had limited choice of reservation times but the place had plenty of open tables.

    This was a wonderful experience. The food was delicious. We were so overwhelmed by the excellent choices that we decided to come back two days later for a second dinner there! The service was impeccable and friendly and the food was so delicious. Highly recommend.

    The food was fabulous! Loved all the vegetables cooked to perfection. The drinks were great. Service was wonderful. We had such a great time throughout the whole dinner. And to top it off, Pearl's treated us to dessert to celebrate two birthdays in our group. We'll be back!

    Our server was very sweet. We attempted to bring our 18 month old daughter to a 5 o’clock dinner and if it wasn’t for our amazing server I don’t think we would have made it out alive! The crab beignets are to DIE for. We will be back, sans child next time.

    Pearl’s is simply the best spot to get that down home southern cooking fix! The staff is exceptional and the food is too! No trip to Manchester is complete without a Pearl’s visit!

    The food and service exceeded our expectations. Our experience with southern food was one that included heavily fried food but this was not the case at Pearls. The beignets were light and delicious. Our entrees, scallops pleasantly presented with squash and fresh carrots and the shrimp creole were excellent. The servers could not have been more accommodating and pleasant. We were celebrating our anniversary and were congratulated by the staff. We would highly recommend going to Pearls and will certainly return,
