    The Carne Asade Fries.   Fantastic!
    Scooba Steve P.

    Good service, cold mugs, great food. Excellent prices. Not only is it the best in Lakeland/Arlington, it might be the best in the midsouth, for this type of American/Mexican food. It can be a little loud, but it's not "drunks at the bar" kind of loud. It's just "families having a great time" kind of loud.

    My order of Steak Street Tacos
    Ali D.

    Today was my first trip to Pericos and it was a great one. I got a small order of cheese dip and an order of steak street tacos. (If you order corn shells you get 4 tacos in your order; if you order flour shells you get 3 tacos in your order.) The corn shells were perfection, you guys. They were soft and a little crispy in some spots. Y-U-M! The steak was awesome & the onions + cilantro on top made the taco! And the cheese dip was exactly what I would expect and exactly what I needed on this cold, rainy day. I also really enjoyed their salsa. Not too hot but also had just enough kick. The chips we got were warm and tasty, too. I also got a steak quesadilla to go for my husband and he said it was fantastic as well. The steak has a wonderful flavor and was great quality. We were one of the only parties in the restaurant as we went during an off time but the staff wasn't extremely attentive but we managed just fine. (Would have enjoyed a refill and had to seek them out to place my to go order & get more chips.)

    Yummy free chips & salsa served with individual dipping bowls. Good margaritas. Everyone in our group of 10 enjoyed their meal. Service was on the slow side so but the food is homemade & the servers were very nice. We had a fantastic time here in the laidback, festive atmosphere. Some of our group live locally & love this place. Even those of us who live out of town will return here when in Memphis.

    Here are some other options.

    I've been a few times with my SIL who's been a regular his whole life. The food and margaritas are very good. Try the quesabirria. Yum!

    We live in Ft Worth where good Mexican food is abundant. We were extremely disappointed with the food. The service wasn't great either.

    First time trying out Street Tacos and we were very impressed. The tacos were excellent. The chips…read morethat come with the tacos are freshly fried; crisp and delicious. The Mexican Street Rice was next level good. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, but it has a pretty cool vibe and the decor is nice. We will be back next time we are eating lunch out in Oakland.

    This is such a cool little spot to get good, hot and fresh food…read more We ordered the Volcano Chicken Tacos and the Veggie Street Rice with shrimp added. The tacos were delicious but the name is misleading. My husband thought it would come drizzled in some kind of spicy sauce given the name, but it was just chicken, cheese and onions. It was still really tasty though. I had the rice and while it was well seasoned, it lacked something else. I think a creamy sauce would knock this dish out of the world. If I ever order it again, I'll be sure to request a cream based sauce, or order a side of sour cream. The service was fast but we also came during a time where they didn't have crowd. If you're dining in, your order will come with a bottle of salsa verde and a bottle of spicy red salsa. Also, the music was great at the time we went, they were playing bachata and it took everything in me not to get up and dance. I'd recommend this place and plan to return. Oakland needs more variety like this little gem.
