Perlas Opens in the Space on South Congress Vacated by Mars

Posted by on Jun 2, 2009 in Openings

Larry McGuire and his team from Lambert’s Downtown BBQ have stuck again, this time with Perlas at S. Congress in the site formerly occupied by Mars.

On first glance, I thought it was Mexican in concept. But upon stepping inside, the immediate impression is nautical, a Cape Cod kind of vibe. Our first lunch there was quite good: I had the Soft Shell Crab BLT. Neat idea and very tasty. Our lunch was a bit on the pricey side, coming in at over $60 for two salads and two entrees (tip included). But the attention to detail is obvious. And the quality is apparent. So we shall see!
