“Good Authentic Mexican ”
Review of La Perla

La Perla
Cuisines: Mexican
Restaurant details
Reviewed 30 December 2016 via mobile

We've traveled around looking for the best Mexican food in the area. We've been to several restaurants in Mexican Town in Detroit and in Mexico. La Perla is good, probably the best in southwest Michigan. But it's not the best we've ever had. I think it's personal preference. I don't like a creamy sauce on the chicken tacos. Just give me shredded chicken, cilantro and onion on a corn tortilla. Simple. But the flavors at La Perla are excellent and you get a lot of food for what you pay for. If you are looking for good food, fast and cheap, go to La Perla.

I have been going to La Perla since I have had the ability to drive. The steak tostadas are my favorite, and the staff are fantastic. I could drink the salsa right out of the bowl if I had to it's that good! This place brings me back from East Lansing to enjoy the quirky atmosphere and stellar food. A must visit if you have never been to the area.

Best Mexican food restaurant in Benton Harbor.
I like fish tacos very much. The taste is awesome here. Other items also good. Visited 3 times in 2 weeks. You should try here if you are in BH.

Get the tacos of 'lengua' (tongue) which is hand cut for taste and size. Get your tacos in either corn or flour and 'con todo' for the works. We've been coming here for years and love the food.

Really good Mexican food. Informal dining setting with attached grocery. Authentic. The marinated pork is my favorite.
