I loved the food, the attention and the patio. The crispy salmon was outstanding. The clam chowder was a bit thin but excellent flavor. The spicy oysters were great. I'll go back again anytime.

Went to Perla's on a whim as the weather was nice and I wanted to sit outside. I've been in Austin for 10+ years, and have visited so many restaurants, but never made it to Perla's until now (Mongers, Juniper, Lenoir, Red Ash, Vespaio!)
I enjoyed my meal. I split a wedge salad with thousand island dressing topped with crab meat. I had seared scallops with a cauliflower puree that were not overcooked and served perfectly. My fiance had a lobster roll that was a bit disappointing. They had a nice lobster mix placed on top of a roll that wasn't flat, nor cut open. I think the roll should have been cut so that you could actually get some of the lobster down in it and not spill off everywhere. It would have been KILLER if they melded it with a Raisin Canes piece of flat Texas toast with a slight crunch.
The prices were really high though. I looked around and noticed the clientele was older: probably averaging 40 on South Congress. Our one app, a beer, a glass of wine, a lobster roll, and scallops (3) was $110 w/o tip. That didn't really include any sides except for shoe string fries that came with the roll. Sides were all $8-$14 and are intended to be shared.
I wanted to try so many other things on the menu, but pretty much everything was $35/plate when I went. I'd give this place a 4.2/5 (not a 4).

$18 Po-Boys with no condiments - you have to request the seafood condiments but the waitress didn't ask if we wanted them or say that they don't come with the order. This half-a** seafood restaurant with a banging location, and parking harder to deal with than a stay in a Russian gulag is rightly exploiting the fact that white people with money have re-Columbisized and discovered oysters, while fans of cocktail sauce have been in the know for longer. Tartar sauce group perhaps growing too . . this is this rusted trombone of a restaurant's welcoming salvo to guest, with the waitress coming over after 30 minutes to talk 'water'. Fries are second-rate af, baguette was excellent, decor - perfect. Shrimp felt and tasted like they were made by a cocktail waitress on a oil rig restaurant, but not an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico. Microscope not included with shrimp. Ayn Rand as our waitress: Free, and five courses of salty kitchen staff (waitress dropped dime on kitchen Nazis). Swank no seafood. Austin twenty years, Gulf Coast raised.

I have going to this almost twice a week. One weekend I took my kids and I ordered a hamburger for them to share since my kids were not that hungry. So I ordered a burger for my kids requesting an extra empty place and cut it in half so my kids can share it. When done I asked for the bill and was an extra $4.00 added to the bill it's not a big deal but I was curious what is it for. The waiter stated the extra $4.00 was for cutting your kids burger in half and the request for an extra empty plate...I couldn't believe it. Paid the bill, went home I never went back to eat there since then. Unbelievable!!!!!!!

Food was amazing. Loved every bit of it - had octopus appetizer and himachi for main course. Really great outdoor deck. Service was nice. A bit pricey but expected. Great evening all around!
