WHO WE ARE – THE HISTORY
Peroʼs on the Hill is a collaboration of two old college friends. Chandler Goff and Sammy Peroulas met at Emory University in Atlanta, and have been friends since. After college, they each built their careers in the restaurant and hospitality business. In 2010 they combined their knowledge and culinary expertise and in 2011 opened Peroʼs on the Hill.
Sammy is second generation restauranteur. His father and uncles created and ran several successful restaurants in the Knoxville area, including the original Pero’s. This is where Sammy learned to make the delicious spaghetti that continues to bring people back to Pero’s on the Hill on a regular basis. He is also responsible for the many Greek dishes which appear on the menu here, not to mention the best hand made pizzas in Tennessee.
Chandler started his restaurant career at Mulligans in Atlanta, Georgia. Although Mulligans was mostly a live music venue and late night watering hole, Chef Chandler added several unusual menu items, including the Luther Burger, a bacon cheeseburger, served on a toasted Krispy Kreme donut. This helped start a craze of unhealthy food, and Chandler showed off some of his creations on The Tonight Show in 2004. After Mulligans, Chandler joined the Maggiano’s restaurant group in Texas as a regional manager over 46 restaurants. At Pero’s on the Hill he often brings us new specials.
