La Perla - Jefferson City

Was starving and near the area, found this place online. Fiancee went out to get food, said place looked sketchy and eerily quiet, was not sure of quality. I ordered the veggie burrito and it was delish!

I ordered a soft shell taco and a Carne Asada Torta and the bread was great, as well as the cheese tomato and lettuce... but the meat that was on it was disgusting. It was so fatty and grissley and it honestly looked like dog food. Not going back after that. I hurt my tooth on one of the pieces because it was so hard. They need to upgrade the quality of their meat.

The waiter did not have a clue. Said the beef was hamburger, it was not. Big chunks of fat. Salsa has no taste. Asked for water, it came warm with no ice cubes. Never saw waiter again. I had to find to go containers myself. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

We came right at opening. We were not greeted, just stared at. The floor was filthy,and we couldn't even find the ladies rest room. We left.

The service is very good, the staff is very friendly and there are many good meals to enjoy with family or friends.
