09/2024 I am revising my answer. I've been a long time customer of La Perla, but tonight of all night Friday the 13th September 13th 2024. I was escorted out. Why you ask? Because this crazy ass Chola..which more and more are coming in..but this one approaches me and wants to fight me. I have a lot of Chicana or Cholla , but this one is nuts. More and more are showing up. I have a lot of friends and acquaintances that go there, but I am done with this place. When I brought it up to staff to please watch her because I'm just there for a good time, as usual. But tonight I get escorted because of her. Because I did not fight back I repeat I did not fight back, but they felt it necessary to 86 me too the following week. The girl has slashed my 2 tires..she would bump into me.. on purpose, to start a fight, but I'm not having it I'm ignoring her, but I still get escorted out LOL. I will not be there anymore. I let go of the fact that staff can't talk to you correctly except for the bartender. The bartender is great Johnny is great always great. But always some kind of problem not getting your money back. Recently they turned themselves into a fancy restaurant, don't be fooled it is not fancy they raised their prices their food still sucks unless you're getting the chicken wings and fries. Something simple. I love going there but it's getting worse. The manager Laura on the weekends does not know how to talk to people. She talks to you like a child, instead of explaining that you cannot cross or go up on stage to give the DJ a hug. She actually picks and choose what she wants up there. I have supported La Perla for many years and I brought people but the only good food is the bar food the chips not salsa period and chicken wings and fries, is the only thing I will order. But order before 9:00 because they stopped. Disappointed with the treatment. It's sad because I brought people there. I will never ask people to leave period because that is their own decision. But if you have left because of their own experience. They raise their prices too high, trying to make it look like a ritzy place....

Took a bit for someone to wait on us, drinks took a while - the house margarita that didn't taste like it had much tequila at all. Menu was just appetizers and lunch items. We decided on a cheese crisp and the mini chimi plate. Asked for our cheese crisp to have green chilis. For the chimis we chose shredded beef (choices were chicken or shredded beef). Menu said that would be topped with salsa, sour cream and guacamole, I asked if those items could be on the side, she said that's how it comes. Our cheese (not-so) crisp came smothered with what seemed to be a freshly opened can of green chilis and green enchilada sauce, not hot at all, and not crisp at all. Chimis came with the same green sauce drizzled over them. No sour cream, no guacamole, no salsa. We had to ask for forks and napkins when our food came. We weren't even checked on between ordering and the food being brought to our table. My husband asked for another margarita, but finished our food before it even came. He thought about sending it back but he was thirsty after eating. Oh, and our shredded beef chimis actually had ground hamburger meat in them. And again, we weren't asked if we needed anything until we were done eating. Waitresses were having to stand at the bar and wait for drinks, and ours was busy doing I don't know what so the last margarita took quite some time. Then there was the music! Too loud to hold a conversation, but then the band set up. This place is too small for a band, it was too loud in such a small room. We won't be recommending the new la...
Read moreDO NOT EAT HERE!!!! The service is awful!!!!! The waitress had an attitude like she hated her job from the moment that we walked in. She was soaking gum while taking our order. We ordered quest to go with our chips, but that didn’t arrive until after the food did, and it was literally just shredded cheese melted into a skillet. I ordered pork sliders, but they brought just one big hamburger bun with the pork. I told the wait that I did not order that, that I ordered the sliders, she rolled her eyes and walked away without saying a word. She came back with the same plate and stated they didn’t have any slider buns. But instead of coming to tell me before they made it, I guess the kitchen staff just decided what I was going to eat. She then stated that they could “just make something else but it will be a long time”. I told her never mind that I would just not eat and not to bother with the quest because we ordered that as the appetizer with the chips. She said ”okay then” and walked off. After all of this happened, she still brought out the so called queso. I told her again that I didn’t want it and she just put it on the table and walked off. My husband took a few bites of his food and said he couldn’t eat it because the beans and rice tasted old and the tacos had very little meat in them, which also tasted old. The entire time we were there, all three waitresses were just standing or sitting at the bar on their cell phones. Other customers were also complaining and leaving with out paying. We payed our bill, but I can promise you that we will...
