Reviews for Taqueria Los Pericos in Santa Cruz, CA
My favorite Mexican spot in the Bay Area, I always have to go here when I?m in town. My go-to is the chicken giant quesadilla... with some of the green salsa and roasted tomato salsa. Beef is fine, carnitas is fatty. Read more
This place was packed at 2pm on a Sunday. Delicious tacos! We ordered the shrimp, carne asada, and Al pastor tacos! Free chips... and salsa. Shrimp tacos were a bit well done and the super taco was loaded with sour cream! Fast service yet little seatingindoors and out.. Read more
I don?t say this lightly, but this spot is my favorite Mexican food in the Bay Area. (To be fair, the bar is not terribly high.)... The food was delicious and fresh, probably since the line is long and moves fast. We got the combo plate with chile rellenos andenchilada - it was piping hot and so, so good. Also don?t sleep on the tacos ? they were so flavorful, especially with thevarious sauces! ???????? Read more
We were in the area for a Spartan Race. Needed to do some food loading the day before. Picked a random Taco spot on the map.... Couldn't have picked a better place. None of the meat was dry and the salsa was well balanced in flavor and heat to keep allcustomers satisfied. We ate in and then I ordered another 4 tacos to go. I will definitely come back here if I'm ever in thearea again. Read more
Two of us came for dinner, it was really busy but food came really fast. Free chips and many different types of toppings. We got... four super soft tacos between us and was more than enough. Highly recommend!! Read more
This place is really good. Jumbo burrito is massive! Very good food. Heard the street tacos were good and pretty spicy. I... would definitely eat here again. Cool little place. Read more
I heard about the hype and thought I?d check it out. It?s great for being in downtown Santa Cruz. Parking was easy. The tacos... come packed with meat. The chips are thick. I love a salsa bar but I thought their salsas were a bit too acidic. The spice levelwas great Read more
Place is always busy cause the food is great. Been there multiple times for their burritos and I?m never disappointed , they... also have free chips with a purchase. The portion size for their burritos is big too. There is however minimal parking so havingto park on the meters is recommended. Read more
