Be careful, they added twice the hefty $50 tip and the card came with a $100 tip afterwards. They quickly corrected when we called. The plates are quite larger than the actual food and the price is high. The food was very good and the service too, except for the double tip thing. Go early to see the sunset, great... more

Was staying at the hotel so was excited to try it. The setting is great. Went on a Sunday so was very much lacking in atmosphere. The maitre d'hotel was nowhere to be seen. Food was interesting although did not wow me (given the high prices). Unusual fish combinations. I had the halibut which was a little dry and lacked... more

Perla is located in the La Conca hotel. The restaurant is shaped like a shell and is on the ocean. I was impressed when I arrived with the atmosphere. Unfortunately it ended there. It took twenty minutes to get our drink order taken after we were seated and then another 20 to get the drinks. The person who brought our... more

On a recent girlfriend getaway to San Juan I was invited by a friend to dine with him at La Perla along with another friend. I had already read most of the reviews on this site and was not sure what to expect as reviews were both positive and not so positive. However, once I arrived I was blown away.... more

Tonight we ate at Perla. The decor is very nice and the service was very attentive. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to my expectations. The food was pricy, the portions were modest and our over all experience with the food was just average. Most surprising was the wine list. It was very extensive as well as being very... more

The service at Perla is outstanding, to bad the food doesn't match. Although the food was good it was not outstanding as it should be for that price.We were especially dissapointed by the desert menu as we had read an entirely different menu on the website that was no longer available. more
