I want to love this place! The food is a bit more authentic than say... Miguel's although there isn't really anything over-the-top wonderful on the menu (I've had it all over the years). Not always the cleanest place though.

This restaurant has the best enchiladas, the cheese is fresh and the chicken is to die for. They have spicy salsa with a nice kick to it and the drinks are great . I highly recommend this place to all people

La Perlita has the best carnitas anywhere. I'm a taco lover and they are good too. The staff here at LaPerlita is great. You are greeted with a smile every time.

La Perlita is one of those Mexican resaurants that are so hard to find. The food ia authentic from the carnitas to the enchiladas. I recommend it for anyone who is looking for a real flavor of Mexico.

That's what you'll hear recommended to you when you walk in the door of La Perlita. And believe me, they are telling the truth. My husband could have gone anywhere for his birthday dinner this year, but all he wanted was carnitias at La…

If you want run of the mill, gringo style Mexican food, this is not the place for you. But, if you want the real thing, prepared in true Mexican style, then you need to try La Perlita. A fixture in Santa Ana for over 15 years, it move…
