La Perlita Restaurant & Carniceria is a Mexican restaurant known for its authentic and fresh food, with large portions and a variety of dishes. This long-standing establishment on the south side offers a true "taste of home" cuisine. While the seating may be limited and basic, the restaurant features a butcher shop and mini-market inside. The tacos are a standout option for a good price, and many customers have praised the delicious sopes and ceviche. The chilaquiles remain a popular choice.
Guests have described the restaurant as "real Mexican food," saying it feels like being in Mexico, with vibrant colors and Spanish being spoken. Parking is conveniently located right in front of the door and on the side of the building, making it easy to access. The atmosphere is kid-friendly, and the staff are noted for being nice and professional. However, there have been some reports of issues with the homemade drinks, like the Jamaica flavor being overly bitter. Despite this, many diners have enjoyed the aqua fresca, a refreshing hibiscus juice that is just the right amount of sweetness. Overall, La Perlita is definitely a restaurant to visit for an authentic experience.
