Definitely a 5-star food dinner experience for me! Food is authentic, delicious. I’m from the city area and do love Mexican food and dine a lot in Mexican restaurants. But I’ve never had a burrito that is so well done: very thin tortilla wrap, with juicy food well wrapped in. The seafood cocktail is well seasoned and loaded too. I have to say comparing with their burrito, the ones I had before are so dry and the wrap were usually double the thickness. I told my husband I feel like someone who’s been eating fast food dry burg... read more
Saw this place featured on Netflix’s Taco Chronicles: Cross the Border- the San Diego episode. I enthusiastically told my family-“We have to try it” even though they thought Oscar’s Mexican Seafood (across the street) looked better. When La Perla gets that sort of publicity on Netflix-you would think food and service would be exceptional due to stardom opportunities like that. We should have gone to Oscar’s. We walked in to La Perla at 2:30 and I politely asked the cashier if they were still taking orders as I saw they c... read more
Great food and service. The owner is sincere and off to a great start with a family business. I recommend the appetizer soup with a single shrimp on a chilly day in pacific beach. After the warm appetizer the ceviche is tasty and filled with shrimp 🦐 I also ate the Al Pastor tacos until I couldn’t eat anymore. The Tamarind drink has 140 calories but it is super tasty. I met the owner and his family when i visited the shop and they are great San Diego people.
Good place, I liked the Cali burrito a lot. Location is really nice and there is seating available as well. If you're in the area it's great but if you live 30+ mins away it might not be worth the drive if you live near another decent place (I live in Poway so there are only like 2 places that are good in a 20 minute radius).
I'd like to start this review by saying that we were really excited to eat here. Most reviews of this place are excellent, so we expected a great night. However, that's not what we came across. The guy at the register was either having some sort of nervous breakdown or on an absurd amount of cocaine. He walked right past the line of people waiting to be helped repeatedly, couldn't hold eye contact, and forgot the conversation he was having with you AS HE WAS HAVING IT. He didn't warn us about the wait time, but I overheard h... read more
