The Scene
Located in historic Walker's Point, La Perla sets the neighborhood abuzz as the margaritas flow at an alarming pace. Delicious food, an ever-growing tequila collection of 225 varieties and a giant chili pepper you can… Read Full Editorial

We took our daughter there to by JG523 via Citysearch on 4/28/2012

We took our daughter there to celebrate an event and it was a big disappointment. First they wanted to seat us in a back room all by ourselves. The room was freezing cold. We got a table in the main dining area (bar) which was at least…

Good Food and Good Beer by Frank G via Insider Pages on 3/8/2011

Good Food! Me and my entire family go there to eat. Very good Tasting. Food is a bit pricy but overall very good. And dont forget have a good Mexican beer with your meal!!

Don't believe the hype. by elenad via Menuism on 1/7/2011

I had heard good things about La Perla from many people, so I decided to give it a shot. Boy, was that a...

Doesn't even come close.... by craemoret via Menuism on 8/15/2010

La Perla doesn't even come close to La Fuente or Botanas. Their food is so so. Sometimes it's hot,...

No thanks by EmeraldM via Citysearch on 8/13/2010

We had a party of 7 and made reservations at least a couple weeks in advance, and we still had to wait for an hour n 1/2. We were practically shoved into a back corner/closet kind of thing. The food was good, but I've defineetely have…

Can We Sit On the roof? by No Service via Citysearch on 8/9/2010

OK, The 2 most wonderful women in my life and I want to sit on the roof top. She came up out of breath...we were ready to order. Guac, cheese Ques, and Mango Salsa. 45 min for a wait. Margs were Neon green. Never going again. We knew…

La Perla - Not as good as it used to be by ginmuffin via Menuism on 1/11/2010

La Perla used to be one of my favorite restaurants but it's gone downhill. It used to be this little whole...

Good drinking environment; Fun atmosphere by jayoldenburg via Citysearch on 1/9/2009

Food is just okay. This establishment makes its money on the Margaritas (they are good). There are better places for Mexican, but this place has an energy that I enjoy. The tortilla soup is really good. I like lunches here better than…

Don't believe the HYPE! by marc4fun via Citysearch on 8/15/2008

When I moved from Chicago to Milwaukee one of the things I told everyone I would miss was the great Mexican food. I would have to say that at least 9 out of 10 people I asked for a recommendation said "go to La Perla, it's the best!"... So…

Best place to meet and eat! by mrseleanor via Citysearch on 9/12/2007

Had a great time! Loved the atmosphere, food and service. Can't wait to go back! I am new to Milwaukee and some people from work took me there. Tuesdays' may be La Perla night!

Best time - Great food - Good looking crowd by mexicalucy via Citysearch on 3/2/2007

Best time -- busy place but worth the wait. best margaritas and excellent combo platters. new bar attracts great crowd. I had only been there for lunch before; dinner was awesome and a lot of fun to sit, drink and watch the different…

Horrible food and presentation by dherath via Citysearch on 12/27/2006

I have passed this place couple of times and it seems to be crowded all the time. so i ASSUMED the food must be good. What a mistake !!!\r I ordered some roast pork dish. When I got the dish I didn?t even feel like eating anything else for…

Accross the Border in our backyard by Karl A. via Judy's Book on 12/10/2006

La Perla has emerged as a kingpin of some of the great Mexican restaurants in Milwaukee. Much advertising on various local buildings has caused the word of mouth. Sometimes you may have to wait, but it is worth it. There is less wait…

Someone hijacked the adjective "Mexican" and applied it to this food. by legaldiva via Citysearch on 11/3/2006

This is not mexican food. If you want mexican food, try "Azteca" or "Botanas," but don't expect to get anything mexican from La Perla. This joint mostly caters to the suburban crowds too fearful of the South Side to venture very far from…

LA PERLA by NANCY P via Insider Pages on 10/31/2006

EVERY ONE TALKS ABOUT LA PERLA. WELL I DECIDED TO TRY IT MY SELF. OH NO!! NEVER AGAIN YOU WAIT FOR MORE THAN 1 HR TO BE SEATED. ITS NOT REALLY FAMILY ORIENTED MAYBE IF YOU ARE INTO GOING OUT FOR SOME DRINKS "STANDING UP" LA PERLA IS THE…

Excellant authentic Mexican fare. Great seafood dishes. by ruah via Citysearch on 7/26/2006

Excellant authentic Mexican. Some unique dishes not found elsewhere. If you like seafood, one of the few Mexican restaurants with good Mexican sea food dishes. Service is great. Very busy, but not overly crowded since the outdoor…

a good time by smithereens via Citysearch on 4/28/2006

thanks LaPerla. Love your new dishes. the new rooftop patio is beautiful too. I'll be bringing my girlfriends back again this weekend!

chile doesn't work by ummno via Citysearch on 4/14/2006

The salsa is extremely mild and the place looks like a fast food restaurant. The food is not very good either.

La Perla Restaurant 2 by MaryJane M. via Judy's Book on 3/31/2006

I decided to go to La Perla Restaurant since it is so widely advertised on the radio. It seems like a rather run down, ad hoc, place. I ordered a soda and a burrito. My burrito was soggy and it wasn’t very tasty – albeit a bit spicy. I…

Did the Chef die in the fire? by albanaco via Citysearch on 3/25/2006

La Perla used to be an outstanding restaurant, full of charm and delicious, hip Mexican fare. The restaurant burned in a fire, however, and took some time to rebuild. We went back there recently and were surprised how bad the food had…
