Decided to try this taqueria and the food is just ok. The menudo soup has a too strong flavor and apparently they did not follow proper recipe. The tacos were ok…

I'm on this kick to try out tacos in my area.
Carne Asada, Fish, and Shrimp in a hard shell.
The Carne Asada and fish tacos rocked. The instant I took one bite my attention was locked in. The fish had a flaky texture with tangy, tasty sauce in a mini taco dish shell.
The Carne Asada was tender. The portions are decent. The people are friendly. The place is clean and roomy. Not super fantasy but ok for a sit down.
I recommend this place.

I have been going to this place for years and they have the best tacos & wet burritos. The people who run this restaurant are literally the nicest people in town. Do not miss out!

We drive up here from Los Gatos just for the pozole, the best around. It's really so so good.

Absolutely amazing! My family took over the three tables on the left (with permission from the restaurant!) and we had a super fun casual rehearsal dinner. The food was amazing and all the staff were super kind and helpful.

Nice little taco joint in a tiny shopping center.

They have really good pastor. It’s so bomb. Carne asada is good as well. Pollo is just ok. A small gripe is for like $4, the portions could be bigger for street tacos. The grilled peppers and onions are a nice touch though.

The roasted salsa and habanero salsa are bomb! Verde salsa is hit or miss. Last time it was way too acidic from the tomatillos. Chips were stale last time as well, so knocking half a star off that.

Service is always friendly and the facilities are clean. Def a great hole in the wall joint for some amazing pastor tacos! So whenever we are in the area, we grab some tacos and hit up the beach.

We love taqueria La Perla. Super solid food and a 10/10 salsa bar. Shout out to Catalina for being sweet to us late night salty surf bums.

Mediocre food- carnitas were so dry and bland I pulled them out of my burrito. The rice was mushy and bland.

We love this place, consistently great food and friendly staff with a great neighborhood feel, lots of regulars and anyone else coming through Pacifica. Our little one loves their chicken, we periodically just get a big box of chicken and I serve it to him with some garnish, he’s very picky but loves their chicken. We adults of course order everything and it’s all very tasty. Their chicken soup reminds me of “bullion with chicken” European/Ashkenazi style. Give this place a try if you’re in the neighborhood.
