La Perla Sports Cantina

Last night my friend and I ventured into La Perla Sports Cantina. As we entered all the customers and staff looked at us like we were from Mars. Suddenly, evidently a worker approached us and rudely told us they were CLOSED... It was around 8:30 and there were many people still in the establishment. I understand when a business is closed, lock the doors. Don't treat customers like they are POS that are just trying to grab a beverage. If I could give this place 0 stars I would gladly! We won't be returning... Courtesy goes a long way when serving the public. Obviously this place falls far short of something in short supply today, Customer Service.

La Perla means The Pearl. Its Chef, Jason Haynes, has been creating flavorful dishes for 25yrs. A friend and I went here for Sunday brunch. The ambiance of the place reminds me of a small, Mexican cafe in Puerto Vallarta. The service was prompt, accommodating and friendly. They served many of your expected Mexican fair such as chorizo, Spanish rice, pork carnitas in sauce, and many others. Their was also an omelette bar, pancake bar and fruit bar. All you can eat Buffett for only $18/person. My favorite food was the autumn chili sauce. I served it over the Spanish rice, pork carnitas, chorizo and later just ate it by itself. It probably would be good as a dip with chips. This is a sauce I wish I could purchase and bring home to use on chicken or even a Ribeye steak. It was amazing. My friend requested pancakes. They were the best looking pancakes I’d ever seen. They were creatively combined with bananas and blueberries into the mix. Its taste was mouth-watering and fluffy. Hands done b

Great place, I almost go constantly for a few drinks and to eat. The bartender (her name is Lexi) is amazing at her job and always has an upbeat attitude. The atmosphere is nice and they play good music.
