La Perla in Bath and North East Somerset

Food very average, had much better tapas. Some was tasteless, all quite greasy. Our waiter was good but generally they took zero pride in their work and looked completely disinterested. Decor and ambience was dated and had nothing about it. Food came out in seconds of ordering so wasn’t cooked to order. Pricey for what it was. Won’t be going back.

Great service, amazing food, a must visit in Bath

Food was absolutely phenomenal and came out so quickly!

Lovely staff and amazing tapas, would 100% recommend to anyone!

Lovely tapas place, great food, good service. Would definitely come back

Had such a wonderful dinner here. Food was amazing and the staff were brilliant :)

Food was delish, service even better! Gorgeous atmosphere and wonderfully warm staff X

Really authentic Spanish food and environment. You’re transported to Spain. Very good wine.

Food was absolutely incredible. Gorgeous atmosphere. Service was perfect. Staff are so friendly! Loved it :)

Food was excellent. Good service.

Great food and exceptional service, recommend.

I read the odd negative reviews with interest. Plenty of mental illness out there —n’est ce pas? ( French) Anyway it’s a 5 star from us. I knew it was Spanish straight away as there were castanets hanging on the wall. The tapas was great. The service pleasant without being ‘ en tu cara’. ( Spanish) Well done team Perla.

Highly recommend La Perla. Exceptional food, great cocktails and the staff are so passionate about the food and very helpful. Zero complaints.

Good food, dessert was underwhelming.

Absolutely amazing food and service. Came here for a birthday celebration and couldn’t recommend it more!

Well worth a visit if in Bath. Tasty food, great service and nice setting. Would visit again.

Beautiful dinner, the grilled octopus and manchego croquettes were a particular highlight. The setting is lovely in an old underground cellar, nice romantic dinner for two!

Second to none, the setting is just perfect for a romantic night out, great food, resonably priced and wonderful service - wholly recommended!

Fantastic, atmospheric restaurant in the heart of Bath. Food was amazing, service outstanding, and the best sangria EVER!!

Tasty food and friendly service. Particularly enjoyed the croquette with cheese and honey.

Very attentive service and lovely atmosphere. I particularly loved the honey and queso manchego croqueta and the pork cheek.

This is our second time here. We think it is a must visit should you want the most delicious tapas in Bath, served by amazingly friendly staff and in an atmospheric vaulted space. But the true star of this restaurant is their paella! The seafood paella is the best ever we have tasted, and we have tasted many around the world! The chef takes his time cooking it to perfection, using the best red prawns, octopus and mussels, creating a caramelised crust, giving the dish an added dimension for texture and taste! Our server squeezed all the goodness from the prawn heads into the paella to give that extra punch. It's no wonder that the chef won second place in a world paella competition 3 months ago 👍

Thank you so much for a fabulous meal. So many dishes enjoyed by us all!

Even though it was quiet on arrival, 7pm it soon filled up, very friendly and helpful staff

Amazing service and food. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, I would highly recommend coming here when you are in Bath

Amazing food, great atmosphere. The drinks were lovely too. Shout out to the staff who really made the night

Superb. Like being in Valencia itself. Traditional Spanish cuisine. COYB!

Very friendly staff and delicious food that reminded us of our time in Seville. Good options for our young daughter too.

Great service attentive staff and one of the best tapas I have had for a long time.

Food exceptional. Service excellent. Octopus dish a must try. Will be returning.

Best tapas I have been to. Friendly service and delicious food.

Lovely setting, very friendly staff and superb food. Best tapas I've eaten.

Literally, the BEST tapas I have ever had!! I do alot of travelling, plenty in Spain and I'm stunned by this hidden gem in Bath. Perfect atmosphere, outstanding quality food, service friendly and food was beautifully presented. Accompanied by some very tasty cocktails, certainly try the chocolate martini. Truly perfect. I wish we had this restaurant in my home city.

The octopus is really nice! The staff is friendly and welcoming.

The good was great! Like the atmosphere

Great food & service. Authentic Spanish dishes and decent variety. Good potions for tapas too.

Delicious food, amazing cocktails, wonderful staff! Second time here and will be back again! Highly recommend the chocolate martini!

Paella was amazing. Our server, Darcy, was even better. Love the atmosphere and the intimacy of the restaurant. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Yummy, fresh food with a cozy and relaxed atmosphere.

Super service and delicious food. We will be back! Thank you very much.

Gorgeous food. Fantastic service. Cocktails are amazing. Can’t wait to come back again!!

This is the second time we've visited Bath and we have been to La Perla both times, it is absolutely the best restaurant in Bath. The food is incredible and the cocktails are perfection. Atmosphere and staff are delightful. We'll be back again next year.

Our second trip here - I swear the food tastes even better than before! Amazing food, delicious cocktails, great service. Will be back!

Service great, food great, price great and the wine went down a treat. Would 100% come again, the waiter was very genuine

We had a fantastic dinner, beautiful food and great service. We definitely return. Thank you.

such a cute cosy place underground, really warm and friendly staff. food is super delicious, loved everything!

We didn't expect this restaurant to be underground, really adds to the atmosphere of this place, lovely restaurant to eat, staff welcoming and helpful food was good, would recommend a visit!

5 stars because I couldn’t find a fault. Food was great, lovely flavours. A lot of fish and chorizo dishes on the menu. The staff were friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was perfect. It was lovey and quiet on a Tuesday night. All in all a great experience.

Amazing atmosphere, and if you want a paella, this is the place to go!

Food excellent , very difficult to decide a favourite. Nice atmosphere for a Tuesday and service very prompt.

All I can truly say about this place, is it is fully the best meal myself and my family have had in Bath. I have visited Spain, I have visited lanzarote and I have worked with Spanish chefs in the industry, not one restaurant elsewhere can come close to the flavours in La Perla’s menu. To top it all off, if you are lucky enough to have Fredrick serving you, you will have struck gold. 10/10, 5 star

I came to La Perla with no idea what to expect, as we only found it on Google half an hour before we arrived. From the Food to the drinks to the service, I can’t think of a place I have been in the 20 years I have lived in Bath that I can compare in quality. Amazing Tapas, and incredible service. Thank you Fredrick and Nicoletta 10/10

Lovely atmosphere even though there were only us and 1 other table here and very high-quality, freshly-cooked food

Came here with my girlfriend for our anniversary dinner. Beautiful setting and tasty authentic food. Great service and lovely authentic Spanish atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone staying in Bath.

Would highly recommend the iberico pork with chestnut purée and blue cheese sauce. Atmosphere is great, staff are happy and friendly and service was extremely efficient

Fantastic and helpful servers (Frederick especially), fantastic food, and one of the most unique meal experiences I've had

A lovely place with a great staff, a fantastic atmosphere and a massive range of delicious food (with a good amount of veggie options). The Oak Smoked Iberico Pork was the by far the star dish of the night. Definitely a hidden gem of Bath.

Loved it! Really good food & friendly staff. Lots of veggie option too.

Lively romantic dinner spot with a good atmosphere and friendly staff :)

La Perla is a hidden gem in Bath! From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a cosy, candlelit ambiance. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making you feel right at home. The atmosphere is relaxed, with floral decorations and a charming open kitchen that adds to the overall experience. The food is delicious, and some of it world renowned (award winning authentic paella!!), with lots of vegetarian options as well. Highlights were the croquettes and my friends loved the oak smoked pork. A must visit for anyone in Bath.

Good music, good vibes, LOVELY manager and numero uno chef in THE WORLD. 10000000% recommend. Defo come here and get the bread and wine

Brilliant food. Frederic was a great host

Probably the best Spanish food I have had the pleasure of experiencing. We had the paella of the day which was the best I've had and it's my go to meal everywhere I go in the world. If you're in Bath visiting put this one on your list of go to restaurants

Amazing food, the paella is outstanding and service is incredible really friendly and accommodating.

What a gem! 2nd visit for me, this time took the hubby. You go down steep steps to a hidden gem of a place, in a cave-like Spanish style venue, and greeted by the friendliest of staff, serving you Sensational food in a traditional style authentic cuisine. What’s not to love! I’ll be back, AGAIN!

Lovely cocktails and food, very kind and helpful staff, absolutely recommend and will be back
