La Perla Tapatia is the best Mexican restaurant in all of Memphis, hands down. These people writing bad reviews wouldn't know good, traditional Mexican food if it slapped him in the face.

Hands down best Mexican food in Collierville. I moved here from Amarillo, Tx and have spent a lot of time in South Texas, so satisfying Mexican food is hard to come by in the Memphis region. This restaurant is the closest to authentic Mexican cuisine yet found in the realm of suburbia, with excellent fajitas (I recommend the potato fajita), enchiladas, tacos, burritos, and much more. This is why the down-to-earth, home-y La Perla Tapatia receives a 4.0 in my book. Well done, muchachos.

Really great food! I had the shrimp fajitas and they were cooked perfectly. The salsa was also freshly prepared and just the right amount if heat and flavor.

Food was good. Frozen margarita was fantastic! If you get the large one, make sure you have a driver.

Love this place.. Being from San Diego then Denver, finding decent Mexican was a challenge. It you like good hot salsa bypass the table weak stuff and order a side of their tomatillo salsa it's awesome!

Best Mexican In Collierville. Great service, always busy. Food is good, some dishes are great. Worst I have had is average. The Chipolta Shrimp is outstanding. Not the place to go if you are wanting a quite dinner. Seating is tight.

Good Food/Guacamole Disappointed. Ate here last week for lunch. The fajitas were good. Chips and salsa were good. Guacamole seemed to be just smashed avocado...no extra stuff I expect in guacamole. That was a little disappointing. Otherwise good just wont order the Guacamole for $6 next time.

This place is one reason why I miss working in Collierville. My brother and I would meet up here weekly. Better come early for lunch, though, because everyone else in town does the same thing! Awesome prices for above the norm Mexican.

They have a great Queso with Chorizo, if you like onions and peppers it does add nice flavor and the extra heat brings out more flavor. Try the Shrimp Enchiladas but ask for the light cream sauce, they occasionally make it with a tomato sauce with does not suit the shrimp or me.

Best Mexican Food in Collierville!. First things first, its technically a Guatemalan eatery, but that's truly irrelevant. This restaurant is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. The food is amazing tasting, pretty cheap, and the service is really quick and polite! I highly recommend this place over El Porton, Su Casa, or La Hacienda. La Perla is by far the superior eatery.

In Love!. I went here for dinner and fell in love.This is by far the best mexican resturant I have been to. Everything was good,the only thing I would do different though is not order the cheese dip(which was really good)because I ate so much of it I couldn't eat my whole meal(which was EVEN better!)

I wanted 1 spinach enchilada (which is not on the menu). The server accommodated my request with a smile and, "no problem". When asked if we wanted a small or big draft beer I got the big. Expect a pitcher! Very reasonable prices.

Best Mexican In Collierville. We've eaten at La Perla Tapatia and think it's the best Mexican in Collierville. Not only is the food excellent, but the service is quit good and the food comes out quick as well.

My personal favorite is the Tacos al Carbon; but I can also recommend the Chimichanga, or any of Fajita dishes. I have to say though, I've never had something I thought was bad.

If you stop by, make sure to check out the special board by the door for tasty dishes with extra value. On your way out say Hi to Chester in the fishbowl by the register.

We celebrated our sons birthday here tonight and had such a great time! The food and service was amazing!! The food and drinks here are always so good! We always get the molcajete mexicano. Highly recommend this if you love trying different meats cooked in true mexican fashion. The chorizo quesadilla that comes with it is so so so good! Thank you all for a wonderful birthday celebration!

It all started Saturday night when my dad made the statement that La Perla Tapatia was the best Mexican place in Collierville. My mom, Sarah and I had not eaten there or we didn't remember it being anything special if we had. This time my dad was absolutely right! I had a margarita on the rocks. It was delicious. Not too sugary and not too heavy on the mix. For my meal, I had a Tapatia Fajita. It had all the meats you want, tons of them and they were all delicious. Steak, chicken, shrimp, and chorizo pilled high on a skillet. The only negative was the guac was a bit salty. After our meal, I am convinced that La Perla Tapatia is the best Mexican place in Collierville.
