Adrian PhillipsNovember 16, 2014Amazing selection of tequila and mezcal. Gold Negroni is a cocktail special worth trying. Happy hour during the week (starts at 6pm) $5 margaritas and other specials to get your night started.
The #mezcaleria #1 in LA!! Nikki Sunseri and 213 Group are bringing one of the biggest #mezcal selection. #MezcalElSilencio is proud to be feautred on their cocktail menu "Copa del Silencio" Cheers!🐇
Rayshawn WilliamsOctober 10, 2016The Jarritos Paloma is a drink you can pretty much mix up at home but is one of the more refreshing drinks on the menu.
Stephanie MorenoFebruary 2, 2015The chalkboard is out of date. They don't have a list of their tequila/mezcal either to help you. Try not to be intimidated and ask the bartender for help. Selection is great, but they need a menu!
still one of my favorite lil' lo-key hideouts where I can get a nice, smokey mezcal cocktail, though getting more-and-more popular/crowded now that DTLA done come up Son.- Brent MadisonJanuary 6, 2016Best Happy Hour selection in town, mainly because there Margaritas and Palomas are some of the best out there, as well!
Alex SyJuly 28, 2019A lot of bars will make you a Oaxacan Old Fashioned but nobody makes an OOF like they do at Las Perlas. Smooth, refreshing, delicious. Also the other cocktails are good.
One of my favorite bars in dtla. Great food, live music some days of the week, big selection of mezcal, happy hour until 8 pm.
Lindsey WarrenJanuary 6, 2017Come for the $6 happy hour draft margaritas and snacks from the taco cart!
Justin OrdovezaJanuary 3, 2015Love the vibe here. The selection of mezcal and tequila is impressive. The mezcal cocktails are really refreshing.
@JaumePrimeroNovember 9, 2012Yes, I'm crazy about Mezcal! Las Perlas has a formidable selection. Try the "Sueño", which includes strawberry, basil, lemon, balsamic syrup, and of course Mezcal.
Jussi HäyhäJanuary 7, 2016Order taco and tequila. Sit next to the window to enjoy the cooling evening. Magical.
Yvette PinonMarch 21, 2011If you love Tequila, this spot is great! Try the Cucumber basil margarita. It's pretty bomb.com, 500 rabbits is also a good one. Keep in mind there is a long wait for drinks,might want to double it up
nikkiDecember 10, 2016can't beat a jukebox. plus all the mezcal cocktails you could want. sour? spicy? smoky? they've got it!
Katherine M.August 26, 2014My aunt Shalese says, "Las Perlas has the largest selection of tequila I've ever seen. Cocktails inventive too. They don't serve food I believe."
Demand Media StudiosJuly 25, 2012Order a unique margarita at Las Perlas next time you're in the downtown Los Angeles bar scene from the one and only BC Hoffman!

This is the best tequila bar hands down. It's low key and you're bound to have a great time
Strawberry and Basil Margarita made by Noel is the best! Be Ware! Limit of four or be ready to hit the floor
Paul KaraitisMay 20, 2013They DO have Sombra Oaxaca. Try it, you'll like it - it's a very honest spirit.
Stephanie BarajasMay 23, 2012The drinks might take a bit to get but they are worth the wait! It's my spot on Tuesday (:
Best bar in dwtn LA - make sure Noel makes your drinks. Try the 400 Rabbits - so delish.
TheAcid BettyAugust 25, 2019Transphobic management and security makes the environment unsafe for woman and children. Only go if you like to fight with other patrons and staff.
A Paloma is great for those starting out, a Poblano is great for the adventurous!
Tequila. Need I say more? Part of my 6th St Trifecta with The Association and The Varnish.
Allan de LeonJuly 5, 2011There's a three dollar roof top lot across the street, it's hidden, but it's there... Read more
Ricardo HernandezNovember 3, 2016Not a lot of mezcal offerings, just some very commercial brands. Cocktail menu is nothing impressive, nothing new.
Order the Poblano Escabor best cocktail by far!
