Got into my hotel at 9 and started to feel hungry! After a quick search, I found "bacon wrapped burrito" and that was the obvious choice. Percheron Mexican grill is just a food truck with some outdoor covered seating. If that's not your thing, they also have a real restaurant 3 minutes away. The menu is pretty sizable (literally and physically)! The classic Percheron is diezmillo steak, mozzarella, avocado, tomato, onion, mayo, wrapped in a flour tortilla and bacon! $15. I was behind two parties of two and my food took 15 minutes. I opted to take the food to go, since it was 9:45 pm. Thats always a risk because the food might not be as fresh as when it's freshly served. The woman ahead of me asked for well done crispy bacon wrap. I should have done the same, but I wanted to try it the standard way first. I really wanted to love this, but the standard soggy bacon wrap is not my thing. My stomach could not cope with the grease either -- this looks like pretty low quality bacon that is mostly fat. I was pretty disappointed and only finished half! read more

I ordered on website (DoorDash), picked up in person. I got 2 bacon wrapped Percheron burros and churros. My burros were not wrapped in bacon and I paid $3 extra EACH on top of the base price, so the two burros with the additional bacon wrap price were $35.... So disappointed. read more

So here we go!!! This is a truck/trailer with a metal building to the side. No restrooms if you gotta go you just have to hold it. It's very clean both the truck and the dining area. The staff is friendly and I had a great chat with the cook when he was on break. My burrito was amazing cooked perfectly with the bacon wrap. I'm going to make it back, but I will go to the restroom before I go. read more

Bacon. Wrapped. Burrito. The only thing you need to know and want to go here. There's a video on Youtube that featured it, and it lives up to the fame. We split the Percheron: Lean steak, avocado, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese. The beauty of it (besides the bacon), is the absence of rice or bean fillers - that's a Tucson burro. Takes a little (maybe 10min) but definitely worth it. That, and "real" Coke (from Mexico) made my day. Oh, we ordered another one, with added green chiles, to go, LOL. read more

Really GUUUD!!!!! Recommend!!! I live in vail and I don't mind the traffic just to eat here!

This burrito place was amazing and definitely needs to be on the list if you're a foodie that loves bacon! The meat here is seasoned well and there's just so much flavor biting into a crispy burrito, I like mine with their orange/mayo base sauce. Like others have said it does take 15-20 minutes so call in ahead if you don't have much time to wait. Covered outdoor seating is available. Can't go wrong with any of the bacon wrapped burritos, best burrito in Tucson hands down we went back 3 times in the same week! read more

Percheron - Steak Burrito Bacon Wrapped - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Well, kinda torn on this one. The bacon wrapped steak burrito was good (with notes below). But this is a skeleton of what it used to be, menu-wise. Gone are most of the great burrito varieties he used to have, like the Italian one with pepperoni in it, which was my favorite. Gone are his fabulous fries. Now there are just two, maybe three burritos. He does now have this nice indoorsy seating with booths. So the burrito...the photos on the truck show this mouth-watering pics of how it is assembled. Avocado slices and "melty mozzarella cheese" included. My steak burrito didn't have either. Disappointing. Still tasted good, but... So bummer. What he has is good, but I will no longer be looking forward to my Percheron cravings. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

Heard how good this place was and they did not disappoint. I love trying varieties of salsa so I was glad to see that they had a self service bar. Their salsa assortment is pretty good and tasty. This food truck is located near the parking lot of Chihuahua Market, off to the right under a tent with multiple tables. They also have a table nearby with a big fan that blew mists of water to help cool us off from the heat. read more

Percheron is a food truck that seems to be permanently parked on 12th Ave (except when out for catering orders perhaps?). It's located right next to a covered dining area with some booths and a couple of tables. This is the only place I've ever seen that bacon wraps their burritos, which is basically what led me to eat here in the first place. I guess bacon wrapping food is kind of the thing around Tucson. It's honestly kind of a gimmick, but I'm not complaining! The burrito does take time to make - it took around 20 minutes after I ordered on a Friday early afternoon and that was with no one in front of me! Luckily they have a buzzer system so you know when it's done. I got the classic here: Bacon Wrapped Steak Burrito ($14.99) - Super decadent artery clogging goodness. The ingredients are perfectly balanced with steak, avocado, cheese, peppers, onion, and tomato in every bite. The interior is moist and there is no need for any additional salsa or crema (although, they do have a salsa bar if you want something to add). The bacon is tightly wound around the tortilla, and doesn't fall off at all. It's also well rendered so that there is no rubbery chewy texture. The burrito is served piping hot and is quite substantial - a cylinder around 3in diameter on the widest side and with a length longer than my forearm. I wonder if they use an entire pack of bacon in wrapping this thing.... The flour tortilla is supposedly handmade, but I honestly couldn't tell much about the tortilla through all of the bacon. It kind of gets lost. The entire burrito is griddled after assembly, adding some additional char. On the side, the burrito came with some charred peppers and lime for freshness and acidity. I'm not sure why other reviewers say they only speak Spanish. The person I ordered from was perfectly good at English. Also, they do accept credit cards now. To be honest, I'm not sure I would get the bacon wrapped burrito again. It's something that's great to try once or twice, but it has to be super unhealthy for you. I certainly didn't feel so great after eating it... I do recommend Percheron just to give it a try. read more

Home of the bacon wrapped burrito they did not disappoint! I have braces and was a little worried how tough it might be but the bacon was cooked perfectly, soft not crunchy or chewy, and not greasy at all. We got one Carne Asada and one Al Pastor both bacon wrapped, and they both came with cheese, pico de gallo, and fresh avocados. The carne Asada was delicious and cooked perfectly, as well as the Al Pastor, with a couple of lime Agua Fresca to wash it down it was a great experience. read more

The salsa bar is incredible! We got the bacon wrapped burrito, so fast, so fresh. Highly recommend!

A bacon wrapped burrito... let that sink in. Bacon wrapped... did I say bacon? I ordered the steak burrito with all the fixings and what you get is a humongous perfectly cooked delicious meal or two. Their salsa/ sauce bar has a chipotle sour cream accompaniment that is my fav. Service is friendly. They are usually busy and made to order and so it does take a while... but worth it. They have a semi enclosed clean space right off a busy road in a gas station parking lot; it can be loud... but who cares while you are eating delicious-ness? read more

Everything we tried at this place was great! The burritos are huge and wrapped in bacon!!! The hotdogs were really good too. They have covered seating and a big cooler blowing into the seats. They had good sauces and large portions. What's not to like... the service was quick and friendly, they were very accommodating to my picky child. The food seemed a little expensive but once we saw the portion size we were happy with our order. The only thing they are missing is a bathroom but that's a big ask for a food truck. read more

Bacon. Wrapped. Burrito. There, that's the review. Just joking. They only speak Spanish here so keep that mind and the actual burrito is great. It's not stuffed to the brim. It's a well balanced, thought out burrito that shows real craft at work. Impressive stuff overall. read more

Percheron - Yeah this was in the middle of the second half. It's really pretty. - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This place was amazing start to finish. 10/10 in every category. The food was great and the portions were filling for the price (which was very fair!) but what really stood out for me was the manager, maybe owner, was so very kind and went above and beyond for us, my grandma especially. My grandma has beginning stages dementia and it's hard to find anything she can and will eat, and she loves to talk and tell stories to anyone who will listen. This kind gentleman was so patient and so gentle with her and kept coming back to check on us and being sweet every time she would strike up conversations even as it got increasingly busy. We will be back! read more

Time sure does fly when you're having fun. Some might even say that having so much resulted in a delayed review (sorry)! After being in Tucson for a long period of time, I eventually heard about Percheron and my jaw dropped. BACON WRAPPED BURRITOS?! Period...say less because I'm on my way! Food (4/5): For my order, I got the Bacon Wrapped Burrito because that's what Percheron is mainly known for. For $11-$12, I would say that this burrito was jammed packed with flavor; however, it could be slightly bigger. The bacon was super crispy and the filling was oozing with deliciousness. It can get messy so be prepared haha. Service (3/5): The workers that were there were very helpful and was very patient with my indecisiveness (meat choices haha). Only true downside of the service was the long wait time. I think I waited approximately 30 minutes for my food to be ready. Although the burrito was super delicious, waiting 30 minutes is a bit much. Overall, food was muy bueno even though it could be bigger for the price. In addition, the wait time can be a bit long so be prepared to wait. read more

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!! Just go here immediately! Great food, great service and awesome vibe.

We discovered Sonoran hot dogs on our trip through Tucson. Percheron's were the best. And the bacon wrapped burritos were great!

Put this on the top of your list! Service is great, the vibe is perfect and the food is exceptional! You cannot leave here without trying the bacon wrapped burrito, make sure you squeeze lime juice on it before you're first bite! There's only two bad things, there's no bathroom and it's hot as heck in summer time. We visited the food truck location by the convenience store. It still doesn't take away from the 5 star rating! read more

The burro Percheron was small, nothing like the pictures so it was kinda disappointing. Not authentic burro Percheron size. However the flavor was very delicious, carne asada was tender and flavorful and the atmosphere was cool. The cashier attended us very well, shoutout. read more

Just get the carbs asada Percheron and hush. Bacon wrapped crisp on the outside, flavors perfection with hot meaty cheese inside.

Bacon wrapped burritos.... does that really need anything more added to it?!! Great food truck located on 12th and Ajo area. Walk up, place your order and wait for delicious made to order burritos, tacos, hod dogs, fries, and much more. Food was fresh and seasoned just right. They have a seating area where you can enjoy your food with a fresh salsa bar. We ordered the large "Percheron" and the "campechano" both fantastic. You have the option to make it a wet burro (red chili sauce over it) or a bacon wrapped burro. Both options are $2 more. Both burros were stuffed with meat, guacamole, pico de Gallo salsa. They are place on a griddle and the tortilla is nice, buttery toasted goodness. They have several salsa options to choose from with sides of lime and crema, and grilled jalapeños (nice and spicy) flavor was very good as you would expect to find in south tucson food truck and the staff was friendly and quick to put out orders. They have plenty of options and serve breakfast now according to the new advertising sign up front. If you are looking for something a little different and want to bump up your cholesterol a couple of points El Percheron is a must! They also have a location at the box yard on 4th ave if you don't want to make it to the south side of the Dirty T. read more

The best burritos in Tucson. The bacon wrapped pork is my favorite but the beef is great as well

This is a food truck previously known as Whataburro. There's a large tarp covering several picnic tables so you can eat at the site. Without a doubt, they serve the hands down BEST BURRITOS IN TUCSON. Pay $4 more to get your burro wrapped in bacon. The carne asada is so tender and juicy, the tortilla is soft and warm, and the bacon is not greasy but a perfect complement to the flavors of the burrito. A large is beyond filling! Very friendly service too! They were really nice and gave us free birthday fries for our friend. A must try when in Tucson! read more

The Bacon wrapped burrito is killer as is the Carmelo- basically get asada anything and you'll enjoy it. TIP: CASH ONLY!

Learn some basics or look at the giant menu and get your order ready before you get to the window. read more

I had to get a bacon wrapped burrito, cuz.....it's a bacon wrapped burrito! It took awhile to get the burrito, which was fine. The burrito was large and heavy. Unfortunately, it just didn't taste that good, to me anyway. I think I liked the idea of bacon wrapped more than I actually liked the bacon wrapping. I would like to come back and try something else. If you're a big fan of bacon though, this may be the place for you! read more

*Quick warning CASH ONLY. First time here and we had to cancel the drinks. Once we got past the cash only hurdle, it was on to see which salsa we'll be using. The green salsa was the hottest one with the most flavor. Our order was called and it was time too try the long awaited Bacon Wrapped Burrito. I ordered the Sonoran style, and my wife got the Mexican style. Neither of us were disappointed! I like to try food before adding extra salsas or other condiments. It was so good, I didn't even add anything; just bit some jalapeño that came with it. The flavor of the burrito was like biting into a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich wrapped in tortilla, wrapped in bacon. Probably just the style I chose, but HIGHLY recommended! This is a food truck with some seating available. Lots of other interesting food to try, so I'll be back. Just remember to bring an appetite and CASH. read more

Percheron - Sonoran style bacon wrapped - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Originally I stopped in search of the Sonoran Hotdog, but they were out of beans @ 8pm. So I opted for the birria hot dog instead, I can do this without beans. Technically it's not a hot dog but it's the Sonorian bun with all the typical fixings. I really dont mind salty food but this was a little too salty. What I did like is that the bun was toasted and there were slices of fresh avocado on top. They have some really unique items on the menu so I think next time I will try the bacon wrapped burrito...yes bacon wrapped!. Overall it was ok, let's see how good it is next time. Maybe it was because I didn't get the mexican coke to go with it. read more
