    Service is wonderful, food is DELICIOUS. I come here for my work lunch every chance I get. Clean place.

    Cute.

    Stopped by this place for a quick bite before our flight home. The first thing I noticed was the cute decor and empty seats. The empty seats doesn't necessarily mean that it's a sign that the food may be nasty, it just means that we came right when the place opened. It opened today (Monday) at 11am. If you're wondering about parking, there is street parking but it takes a while to find a spot. Moving on, the server was very friendly. She quickly asked what we wanted to drink. I didn't notice my usual Horchata on the menu so I ended up just getting water. I originally wanted a lengua burrito but she said they didn't have it so I went for the carnitas burrito instead. My boyfriend ordered the carne asada burrito. She brought over fresh made tortilla chips and salsa. The salsa and chips were amazing! The best I've had thus far. Our order came quickly and my burrito was delicious. My boyfriend enjoyed his burrito as well. My only concern about this restaurant is their restrooms. The toilet would not flush. Aside from that, I give this place a 4 stars. Food, service, and decor was great. Location was sketchy. Cleanliness, needs some work. Affordable. 2 burritos costs me $21 + tip.

    Se terminó las albóndigas

    100% recomendado. Visitando desde San Francisco. La albóndigas muy bien sabor. Nos encontramos este lugar y seguimos visitando.

    Fried Quail was so delicious!! The guacamole is freshly made, hand made tortillas and the impeccable service! 6 star food & service. I would come back again. If you're reading this, you should give it a try!

    Sopa de res ame chiles rellenos
    Edwin A.

    My cousin Henry has been botheringg me to visit La Perla restaurant for years but guess what I decided to visit them today. Now, if you truly want Authentic Mexican, the real deal this is the place. Well, this place is a true diamond in inglewood. Founded by Tina Martinez in 1984 this family own place is really unique. I ordered the sopa de res and chiles rellenos see pics and it's one of the best foods I have had in a long time. I ask everyone to come visit this place you will not be disappointed. Now it's real food so you have to wait a bit to get your food, they don't use microwave ovens, the handmade tortillas are amazing. They have a variety of Mexican dishes And they also have an A rating. The bathrooms are super clean. I am so happy I stopped by - and last the prices are very affordable. I am bringing my familly and hope you guys enjoy this place.

    Amazing HANDMADE tortillas, wonderful and beautiful staff, the food was amazing and the service was great! :)

    This place never disappoints!! Everything I have ordered have gone beyond my expectations. The chile rellenos,enchiladas, sopes,micheladas,tortilla chips, and the salsas. All of those salsas are homemade(no store bought). Tortillas are made there ( no store bought). The place is too good, I drive 20 minutes out of my way just for a plate.

Our service was Miguel and he was awesome , very attentive and friendly . We both got bottomless mimosas and baby they were only $15!! A steal if you asked me . I ordered the blackened salmon, but I got potato's instead of grits . I don't like grits I also got the Mexican roll (with no avocado). Maneeeeee my whole meal was delicious!!! My homegirl enjoyed her food too! Here's her sentiments about our experience! "The restaurant was pretty empty when we first arrived, but it filled up pretty quickly after that. The service was excellent from start to finish. The shrimp roll was honestly the highlight for me, so flavorful and definitely something I'd order again. My steak was just okay, nothing too special, but the grits were FIRE and completely made up for it. We also did the bottomless mimosas with cranberry juice on the side, which was a nice touch. Overall, good vibes, great service, and some standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the shrimp roll and grits alone." I personally have a few more things I need to try in the menu, so trust and believe I'll be visiting more than a few times! P.S. there's meter street parking. Do with that information as you see fit.

This place is a gem. Of course, I had to start with a margarita served in one of those huge goblet glasses, and wow--it did not disappoint. Strong, smooth, and full of flavor. My wife, who's pregnant, ordered a virgin cocktail, and honestly, it was just as impressive. It was refreshing, well-balanced, and fairly priced (which is rare for non-alcoholic drinks). For food, we went all in. My wife ordered the fish taco meal, which was generous and packed with flavor. The portions were no joke. Our son got the kids burrito, and it was massive--definitely not your average "kids meal." I went with the quesabirria tacos from the appetizer menu, and they were perfect for my appetite. Rich, flavorful, and satisfying without being too heavy. The ambiance really stood out. It strikes a great balance between authentic Mexican culture and a modern, clean dining experience. It's the kind of place that feels lively and welcoming without being overwhelming--perfect for a casual night out or even a small celebration. Service was top-tier. The staff was attentive without hovering, quick with recommendations, and made sure we were taken care of from start to finish. You can tell they genuinely care about the customer experience, which goes a long way. Parking is a bit limited right in front, but there's plenty of street parking and nearby lots, so it's manageable. Bonus: right next door is Drobe Stogie Cigar Lounge, which is a great spot to check out if you enjoy cigars. It's the perfect way to wind down after a solid meal. Overall, the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, and this is easily becoming one of our go-to spots for nights out. Highly recommend.

I opted to get the California burrito with the rotisserie chicken as the protein choice. The young lady taking the order was helpful in describing the rotisserie and chipotle chicken offered. Burrito and fountain drink came out to about $20. I chose to sit at a little bar top table across the side walk, the little place stayed busy. They do have a sign that says no public restrooms, somehow people still miss it. And there's one doorway between the patio seating and interior which seems to attract people oblivious to the fact the server is coming in and out with orders. Usually after getting in the way 3-4 times they have an epiphany. When the burrito came out on a plate with some chips I was honestly underwhelmed by the size/form factor. Good weight, but not the typical tight rolled cigar. All doubts were put to rest at first bite. The chicken is so juicy and flavorful, the guacamole is even throughout and the chicken is plentiful. Absolutely no bad bites. Definitely coming back here again, easy stop when coming to LAX and worth the time for the detour.

I even used their catering for a party of 50 people for my 7‑year‑old, and everything back then was excellent. My recent visit to the Manchester location was a completely different experience. I ordered the Chicken and Steak Fajita and waited 39 minutes for my food. During that time, none of the tables were cleaned, trash was left out, and the entire dining area had an unpleasant smell that made it impossible to eat inside. I ended up taking my food to my car. The food quality has declined dramatically. The fajita was almost entirely onions and green peppers, with barely any chicken and only three tiny pieces of steak that were extremely tough, as if they were old and reheated. The Mexican rice was undercooked, the beans tasted like they came straight from a can, and even the nachos had that same canned flavor. They used to serve excellent fresh salsa, but now it tastes like processed canned salsa as well. Based on this experience, I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this place anymore. The positive reviews reflect how the restaurant used to be, not how it is now. For me, this was a zero‑star visit.
