    Breakfast Burrito
    Seth M.

    Great food, clean restaurant. Good service-number and name calling for to go orders. Repeatedly recommended!

    Chicken tacos
    DeAndra J.

    I was in middle when this placed first opened. And my brother still swears this place has the best burritos. We live in Long Beach now and he always talks about this spot, so when we went home to visit, he insisted we go to Los Pericos to prove a point lol. We split a super burrito with carne asada. Our sister got chicken tacos. The burrito was good and it did remind me why we used to go there so much lol. Service was fine. We didn't eat inside, just got it to go. But not too much about the place has changed which was kinda comforting to see.

    I had a really disappointing experience here. I ordered a vegetarian burrito, and I'm very strict about my diet. Unfortunately, the staff gave me a chicken burrito instead. I didn't realize it at first and ended up eating some of it before noticing. This is a serious issue, especially for customers who are vegetarian for personal, religious, or health reasons. Food mix-ups like this shouldn't happen, and there needs to be better attention to order accuracy and labeling. I hope the management takes this seriously and improves their process so this doesn't happen to someone else. Very upsetting experience.

    The meat is super tender and tasty. I enjoy how there's unlimited chips and a salsa bar where you can load up on sides. It's the burrito was a solid 7.5/10, Cabeza taco meat was really good but very oily/saucy that made the tortilla soggy. Otherwise the food here is pretty good and has lots of parking / seating on inside. Service was nice they bring the food out to you as well.

    My first time here... I like how they season their meat... light, so you can actually taste the flavors of the meat. You go to the front and order and seat yourself. Service was quick and the place is huge... they have 2 sections. And where else can you get free chips now??! They have a self service chips and salsa bar. I would have given 5 stars if the Pico de Gallo in their sauce bar was not spoiled when we got there. I do think the staff was already informed and was getting ready to replace it at that time...

    Hello Yelpers and Foodies in the know. I visited Los Pericos on 05-17-25. I wanted a little something to eat and stopped by this afternoon. The restaurant is Very Clean and the employees have are very Pleasant and attentive to customers and the service is quick. You order at the counter and get a Table Sign with a number and the food that we ordered came really fast. We had two steak tacos each with two Fountain drink. The restaurant has a Salsa Bar with fresh warm Tortilla Chips. The Fountain Drinks allows for refills. This is my second time eating here and both times were the same experience as far as food and Employees being exceptional. I recommend Los Pericos when you are in the area. Thank You for Reading. Reviews help Consumers.

    Food order and for the price you would think they would give you a warm meal.

    Today Sunday 12/7/25 at 7:05pm I ordered 2 Carne asada Tortas which wsd cold and 1 Regular Burrito Carne asada and the meat, rice and beans were cold I had never experienced this ever, it was horrible. I thought I was going to enjoy my dinner but was totally ruined. I called them and made a complaint, Ive been going there for years but now you can tell the quality of food has gone down, ever since they changed ownership. They really need to change their kitchen staff/Cooks because they dont put any effort in making quality food. Its sad for the paying customers and this gives Los Pericos a Bad Reputation. I will take a break from going there it was very dissapointing.for $53.41 you think you would get a hot meal.

    I haven't tried everything yet. I usually stick with the burritos enchiladas. Those are very tasty. Good size burritos. I love the free salsa and chip bar. Service is good. The food is made to order behind the counter but the customer cannot see it being made as you can in other taquerias. The staff is friendly. The restaurant itself has plenty of sitting off the main entrance.

    Large menu includes a lot of seafood options. Large seating area, good parking. Salsa bar for self serve chips and condiments.

    This review is only for the small banquet room in the back, behind the bar. Our group had a…read morefundraiser event recently and there were about 50 people that attended. I can't say enough good things about the staff that took care of us. Jessica, Pepe, and the manager Luis ensured that our event ran smoothly. Jessica took care of our drink orders and Pepe made sure the food Buffett was regularly replenished. Both of them constantly cleaned up around the cocktail tables, ensuring that the area stayed presentable throughout the event. The Mexican always has great pricing on drinks so the guests enjoyed a variety of them. The food was delish and everything served was not only pretty to look at but also tasty. They also let us use their mic and speaker system, which I think is a plus. All in all we loved having our event at the Mexican and would recommend this venue to anyone wanting to host an intimate event.

    Waste of $100, and we both regretted our meal. It had been a few years since we'd eaten here, but…read morewe had really enjoyed it in the past, so we were looking forward to coming back. We arrived around 4:30 on a Sunday and were seated in the bar area. After waiting 10-15 minutes with no water, chips, or salsa, we still had no idea who was supposed to be serving us. The bartenders never acknowledged us, and nobody stopped by to even say, "We'll be right with you" or thank us for our patience. Eventually, someone came over and asked if we were ready to order. Our food arrived almost right away, but my fiancé realized his added carne asada was missing. The waiter didn't bring it out until he was nearly finished with his meal because he never rang it in.. I ordered the combination fajitas, and they were just okay. The entire time, there was a woman walking around in a blazer who appeared to be a manager, but she seemed more focused on training the bartender than checking on guests. Had she been paying attention, she would have clearly seen how frustrated we were. When our server finally brought the check, we noticed we had been charged twice for the chilaquiles, plus separately for the carne asada that didn't even arrive with the meal. After another 5 minutes, I flagged down who I believe was the manager to fix the bill. She corrected it and brought it back, but then we were left waiting another 5-10 minutes for our server to actually process the payment. The waiter never even thanked us before we left. Overall, the experience was incredibly disappointing, especially considering how much we enjoyed this place in the past. Neither of us plans to return.

Lots of meat. Lots of onions and cilantro. Lots of lime slices provided. Radishes provided...wished there was more. Surprised there wasn't any jalapeños provided.

Not a lot of taco spots are open late at 10p but I saw that PNT was open. My family and I pulled into the driveway and were confused because it looked and sounded like a bar. There were a few people standing outside and I asked if this was a bar or restaurant and the gentleman said it's a restaurant. We walk in and got some stares because it was late and we had kids. Didn't matter to us. Everything on the menu sounded delish and they had al day breakfast items. We ended up going with the following: 1. Chicken sandwich- 10/10 my teen loved this. It was a crispy thinly sliced chicken breast with all the fixings, and pressed to perfection. 2. Chicken Caesar salad - 10/10 the lettuce was Romain, tossed in Caesar dressing and parm, with grilled chicken filet. 3. 4 tacos de asada - 10/10 yummy chopped steak, seasoned and grilled to perfection. I'm not sure if the evening chef cooks better or maybe we were starving, but the food was great! Ambience at the time was pretty loud but I figure it's because people hanging out in the bar area. Definitely will be back.

    ‼Absolutely horrible tasting food that is ridiculously over priced oh my god. NOT WORTH MY $44 !…read more I got these food items: Asada tacos- 1/2 of the taco meat was just big oily chunks of fat, I spat it out immediately. Rest of it was tolerable to chew. Tortilla was dry and oily. Al Pastor tacos- bland meat with a lingering dry pepper aftertaste that makes the meat taste old. Took one bite and was immediately repulsed. Chips and dip (guac and salsa)- chips are oily and hard to chew. Guac was bland, no garlic or cut tomato. Salsa was a viscous sludge in a small tub, had the same pepper taste as the Al Pastor. Horchata drink- too much cinnamon and saw multiple lidded to go cups of this already made in the fridge behind the register, no expiration dates on them. ALSO PLEASE UPDATE THE PRICES ON YOUR MENU, I was charged $11.95 for the chips and dip but the menu says "house chips and guac $9.50" ... how is salsa $2.45? Only positive thing I would mention is that the free tiny salsa, slice of lime, sliced radish, and pickled jalapeño and carrot was nice of them. Wish the pickled veggies didn't drip vinegar all over the bag (it was wrapped in tin foil). Never been here before and never coming back again.
