“Wonderful food and great atmosphere! Mike is the best server!“

“The food was delicious we loved the Fajitas“

“Great food and service! Highly recommend.“

“Lunch was on the fly, and I thought tacos. This place is so yummy.

Parking: There are multiple things you can get done while having lunch here. There's a touch free car wash, a laundry mat, and a pet groomer that is in the same parking lot

Wheelchair accessibility: It is, but the dining area is very small inside only 6 tables, I think.“

“Staff were wonderful! I think our recipe said Raul was our server, and he was definitely one of the best I’ve had at a restaurant. Food and margaritas were great!“

“Great food and big portions!
My husband and I went there for the first time, the parking lot is usually packed. Luckily, there's lots of additional parking behind the building.
They didn't do the same ol' chips and salsa that most Mexican resturants have- they brought out a refried
-beans-and-cheese dip with chips, and boy was it good!
You probably won't want to order a pitcher of margarita for just two people, it was bigger than we expected and we couldn't finish it since we had a drive ahead ?
The menu is large and varied. The servers were good, and the place was clean. We'll definitely be back when we can!“

“When I moved from California to Tennessee I thought I'd left behind street tacos and entered the land of ladeling nacho cheese on everything and calling it "authentic." Then I found La Perla! Soft corn tortillas, cilantro and onions on top of asada, pollo, or carnitas. Lengua and menudo if that's your thing. Almost every time I eat here I'm one of the only white faces in the room. If you want fancy tables and your tacos with a hard shell, tomatoes, and cheese, go someplace else. For the real thing, La Perla is the place to go.“

“Went 10/30/25 our waiter was Roberto and he was phenomenal me and my newly wifey was so impressed with his service of way and beyond. Food was excellent n hot n seasoned because lm Afro Latina.

“Amazing service and food. I ordered the burrito grande and it was huge. Could feed 2-4 people. So good!

Edit: been eating in the restaurant once a week for the last year. Best drinks in town, especially the margaritas. In this time I've tried numerous dishes off the menu. Everything has been excellent. The most consistent restaurant I've ever been to. The dish you order today is just as good as it was 6 months ago. All the wait staff are on top of their game. Highly recommend!“

“The food is great and the salsa bar is an awesome touch. One of the best things on the menu is undoubtedly the sampler grande whether you get it as a meal or an appetizer it’s a generous portion of several different items to try! Other favorites of mine are the chimichanga which is very good and the carnitas tradiconales. Most of the servers are very attentive especially the male server (can’t remember his name) and the girl who works behind the bar most of the time.“

“Interesting tacos with lots of different flavor combos possible. They are fusion tacos, with inspirations from different cuisines like Korean, Indian, etc. Any option can be made vegan. They have both tofu and jackfruit as sub options. I prefer their jackfruit since it holds the flavor of their sauces better and the tofu tends to too more bland for my taste. My favorite taco there is the buffalo jack fruit. It is attached to Yeehaw brewery and you can eat in brewery area which has a very cool, relaxed vibe.“

“Very good food, quick and friendly service. Amigos , our go to Mexican restaurant.“

“Fantastic food, service and atmosphere! Can’t wait to go back!“

“I went with a good friend for our lunch hour and it was great. The service was excellent and the people were really nice.

Vegetarian options: My friend got praz and tater tots. But you can have burritos made without meat. They've got beans and cheese and salad stuff. That could go inside latest tomatoes, etc.

Parking: Plenty of free parking.

Kid-friendliness: Family oriented place so great for kids.

Wheelchair accessibility: I'm trying to remember, but I do think that you can just roll in ground label.“

“Great beer and food. Great place to hang“
