" La Perla Del Pacifico is undoubtedly one of the best Mexican seafood spots I've ever visited. The wide variety of seafood dishes is impressive, and the flavors are spot on. On my last visit, I had the octopus tacos, which were expertly cooked and seasoned. The service was top-notch, with staff who genuinely seemed to care about the customers' experiences. The cozy, family-run vibe of the place just adds to the charm. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

The fish was fresh, the portions large, and the atmosphere cozy. On my next visit, I plan to try their famous molcajete dish, which I've heard is outstanding. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited La Perla Del Pacifico and was eager to try the recommended ceviche. Sadly, it didn't live up to the hype. While the shrimp was decent, I felt it overly saturated with lime, and the flavor was quite one-dimensional. On a positive note, the staff was friendly and made decent efforts to ensure we were satisfied. The ambiance could use a little sprucing up, too. I'm willing to give it another shot for the other dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

The flavors were authentic and made me feel like I was back in Mexico. The only downside was that it took a bit longer to get seated, but it was well worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Perla Del Pacifico has quickly earned its place as one of my favorite seafood spots in Watsonville.
