The place is festive and bright inside, an impressive menu with lots of options. After giving it a once over, started with a Michelada and a bean and cheese quesadilla, it was a really good start. La Perla is known for its seafood, so I went for the Branzino, whole fish head on. The fish was so tender and flaky, just delicious. Served with fresh guacamole, rice, and a salad, with some fresh tortillas. This was an excellent dish and worth a try. 4.5 Stars rounded up for the kind hosts and cold libation 01094

Today I ordered Door Dash but the food was cold, sour cream runny and the burrito was too peppery as well as the cheese quesadilla was too salty. If I find again it would inky be at the restaurant not carry out. $55 for two people and the food was not enjoyable as well as cold.

Then while driving around that gas station looking for a spot to park, I smelled some amazing Pollo a La Brassa and saw La Chocita behind the gas station. That smelled drew me in! The folks inside were friendly and sat me promptly. I ordered a quarter chicken and she immediately told me she didn't have any chicken today (I think she meant not ready yet). I said I smelled it and that's why I came in, so she said to wait and went in the back. She came back and said she had chicken, so I assumed the fresh, amazing smelling chicken I came in for that was being cooked was ready. Well, what I got was yesterday's chicken which seemed to be re-heated. It was dry and flavorless... very boring. No spices to be seen or tasted - So very disappointing! The beans that came with it were decent... not a lot of flavor, but great texture and still good. The salad was fresh, their "dressing" was the typical mayo-based sauce and it was ok. Overall - Nothing at all exciting about this visit... I left disappointed.

AC isn't completely adequate so I recommend getting takeout on hot days. We got ours to go, and while the pupusas were decent, the salsa amounts were scant so we ended up with what felt like a mediocre experience. Would come back to try them fresh though!

I wasn't feeling up to the big chains and places I wanted to try seemed to close early. Luckily this place was open and I had been wanting to try it for a while. Definitely it let a hidden gem! There are some parking spots right in front, although not many. There is a decent amount of seating, but it would be tight if you had a large party. My partner did note that the bathrooms weren't that great. You immediately get served complementary chips and salsa. They were pretty basic, but not bad. We ordered the following: + Papusas (Pork and Cheese & Loroco and Cheese) - Decent, although I prefer the Loroco (an edible flower bud). + Pollo à la Primavera (chicken dish) - Yummy, especially the sauce which mixes well with their hot/spicy sauce too! I could do without the salad dressing. + Camarones con Calabeza (shrimp dish) - Same as above! Note they leave the tails on. + Natural Juices (Mango and Maranon) - So refreshing! I loved the Maranon (cashew apple) was a wonderful burst of tropical sweetness with a subtle nutty taste. I appreciate that for the pupusas they had the foresight to provide my partner and I two plates so we could sphere the papusas. The portion sizes of the entrees were great for the price. It did take a while for the staff to swing by so that we could get boxes and the check. Note that credit cards and mobile pay are accepted. I definitely wouldn't mind coming back again to try more items on their menu.

I usually get the pollo saltado, which is one of my friendly Peruvian dishes. However, I've noticed the last few times I've been there, the dish has more and more French fries, onions and peppers and less and less chicken. Not the best Peruvian I've had, but it's not bad, close to my house, and there's no reason for me to drive farther when this place does the trick when I'm in the mood.
