La Perla Del Ulua

Me sente ahi a ver el partido Honduras vs Canada y ordene una carne. En lo que espero enfrente la señora que estaba haciendo la ensalada se lambio los dedos y no estaba usando guantes. Que desepcion porque la comida es rica.

Seriously the best Honduran food in New York. Period. Their dishes were fulfilling, never short sided me, and the customer service was amazing. If you are in New York, this is a must.

Food taste good when you’re eating it, but you pay the consequences next day when you’re in the bathroom all day and the service sucks! I’ve visited this restaurant 3 times and have had the same experience each time. Not planning on a 4^th visit. Eat at your own risk!

Came here since bae was raving about the baleadas. Actually was pleasantly surprised, the décor may be horrible, but the food is actually good! Baleadas sort of reminded me of blini we have back in my home country. The chorizo really added flavor to the baleadas so they were really good, almost like a fat taco. Really wish to see better ratings here, three stars don’t do this place justice.

This was the first time at a Honduran place. I thought the food I had was very good and very authentic. The atmosphere is very casual with TV’s with sports on them and one huge screen with a guy playing spanish music videos that everyone was really gettting into. We went on a Friday night at at 11 they open the back into a bar and club.

Really a shame that the rating is so low. Delicious Honduran food, especially the baledas — handmade flour tortillas stuffed with chorizo, carne asada, queso, avocado, etc. The big plates of marinated, grilled flank steak with fried plantains, crisp slaw, avocado, refried beans, and queso blanco are excellent and enough for two at $ 12. Nice change of pace from the local Mexican spots. The enormous, gauzy ceiling drapery and, yes, constant YouTube DJing of ranchera music only add to the chill vibe. Definitely worth checking out for dinner.

The food at La Perla Del Ulua was delicious, full of favor and nice size portion. Recommend as great spot to hang out with friends and family but the only thing we waited about 10 minutes for the checks. Besides that I had a great experience.

I read the reviews about this place and was really expecting nothing much. I came for a private party in the back. I thought it was interesting that the party was catered as if you are dining in as a private patron. I was given some options and I chose the steak dinner. Best decision of MY LIFE. It was a huge portion and delicious! I’m central american and never have I ever had food this good (not even IN Honduras!) I know what you may be thinking… I may be exaggerating right? NOPE. This food was serious business! I’m most definitely coming back to try the pupusas (which I was told they rival Bahia, which for all you pupusa fans know thats a serious allegation) I am not completely convinced something this good is real so stay tuned for my updated review of a visit sans birthday party in the back. I’m hoping I don’t get ripped off with the prices as some other Unilocalers have noted (yikes!) but so far so good.

This place is kind of hilarious, sort of like crashing someone’s birthday party in a restaurant. It has that fluorescent lit vinyl table cloth banquet feel, complete with a bunch of dudes in the corner chowing down. The best was the projector screen displaying cheese Latin music videos (and watching whoever was browsing the internet to find the songs).
Our waitress didn’t speak much English and my Honduras pork dish was so overcooked I couldn’t eat it. But the beans and rice were phenomenal. I should have just gotten that. The portions were enormous, and it was pricier than I expected.
They turned off the heat almost as soon as we got in there, and the temperature outside was in the teens! So we had to put on our coats to eat and I couldn’t wait to leave.

This is an interesting place on a Sunday morning. Almost every patron was a middle-​aged man. There was a self-​appointed DJ playing Peter Gabriel and KC and the Sunshine Band on youtube on a giant projected screen. Soccer posters are everywhere.
Anyway, we intentionally ordered as much food as possible to get a wide sampling of what is available. Strangely, they don’t have coffee, so we ended up ordering some tamarindo and passion fruit juice, which was good enough.
The first food that we got was also probably the best. Honduran enchiladas. The chicken was moist and juicy. The cabbage gave it a nice touch, with some raw pepper and pickled onion giving it a tasty crunch. Next we got a bean soup with chicharron, with came with rice, avocado, and an entire plantain submerged in the depths. I didn’t really know what to do with the chicharron, but it was tasty enough. Additionally, we got a breakfast platter with a fried porkchop, eggs, Honduran bread, mashed fried beans, feta-​esque cheese, and avocado. I probably omitted some parts of it actually.
Although the pork was a little dry, the food was in general pretty good. We would come here again and try out some new things. I kind of wonder what it would look like at a different time of the day.

Cool place! The same owners have a food stand at ferry point park near the Whitestone bridge on the weekends w some of the same yummy food!
My bf is from honduras so im familiar w the food. Try the carne asada, baleadas, and fried chicken.

I can not speak to the previous posters experiences here. I eat in or take to go from this place at least once a month. The food is fresh, made to order and right in front of you by a small army of tias.
The food is delicious and cheap, I just ordered enough food for 3 people and it can to a grand total of $ 19.00.
They are also opening a new location on Melrose St to house the bar to separate it form the dining room.

Food is good but you get robbed on the prices, on the menu it’s says 10 $ and on the bill came to 18 $.
The soup it was 8 $ and second time came to 13 $…
If i’ll go next time I call the cops over to investigate…
Good luck if u going!
