    Was a great dinner, food menu is exquisite, I had the Steak Sandwich, and my partner had the Shrimp Alfredo! Both were delicious and tasty, along with the appetizer of fried calamari!

    Garrett our waiter was welcoming, friendly, awesome service. Happy Hour martinis were great. Fried ravioli was delicious, and the shrimp ceviche was really excellent. Steak tacos out of this world. Surprised to see it pretty empty on. Wednesday night. Decor is cute and fun and flashy. Try it! Great

    Just a random Yelp search led us to try this place. The food was great, from appetizers through dessert! The service was excellent, and the staff was very friendly. Looking forward to coming back soon.

    What a hidden gem! In the past year I've needed to be in Chicago about once every couple of months. I'm always looking for something new to try. I'm typically in the Grant Park area but when doing some research, I randomly found this "newer" place with amazing reviews. I was there on Saturday 03/29 at 5:30 and the place was empty. I never post food pics but couldn't help but to do it on this occasion. The food and drinks were top notch! Archie (waiter) and Garrett (bartender) were also top notch! There was a manager that was awesome too but I unfortunately didn't catch his name. Even though this is a bit of a drive from my Grant Park area, I 100% will be going back to La Perla on my upcoming visits! Well done everyone...keep working on getting the word out!

    Might be my new favorite restaurant, I’ve been twice now hit the AVO Prawn salad with Berrys and the Vodka Pasta with shrimp and both were amazing. So much flavor and there were so many other things on the menu I wanted to try. Will be back especially on Sunday nights as they have trivia

    Bartender was five and a half hours late to his shift - never got drinks. Walked in to see people walking out because no food was leaving the kitchen. Keep in mind, there were maybe 8 people in the entire restaurant and the dish that never arrived was ceviche. For a place with as expensive as this one, I was shocked at the cheap furniture, dirty tables, and lack of available menu items. Highly do NOT recommend.
    La Perla ChicagoResponded on February 24, 2025
    Dear Christina, Thank you for your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for your experience. We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait for drinks and food, especially when the restaurant wasn’t busy. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and we’ll address the delays with our team. We also take your comments about the atmosphere seriously and will examine the furniture and cleanliness to ensure everything meets our standards. Your experience doesn’t reflect the quality we aim for, and we are committed to making improvements. We appreciate your input and hope you’ll consider giving us another chance. Sincerely, La Perla Chicago, Restaurant & Lounge
