I ordered and paid ahead for a club sandwich. When I arrived to pick it up, I walked past the line of guests waiting to be seated , since my order was already paid for, that seemed reasonable. I stood patiently, fully understanding how busy the restaurant was. However, as I waited, the hostess continued to call up other guests (four separate times) without any acknowledgment of my presence. We even made eye contact more than once, yet there was no greeting, smile, or indication that she noticed I was waiting. This happened with two different hostesses. Eventually, my fiancé stepped forward near the register, but the hostess avoided eye contact entirely, staring at the screen instead. It wasn't until I finally spoke up and said I was there for a pickup that she acknowledged us -- and suddenly seemed to notice the 6'2" man standing right in front of her. Fifteen minutes went by before I received my food, and I had to initiate the interaction myself. I was not greeted, not engaged, and my food l, which had been ready for some time; was soggy by the time I got it. The ranch inside was even warm from sitting too long. This was my fiancé's first time at this establishment, and unfortunately, he's now hesitant to return if this is the tone and level of service to expect. I understand being busy, truly. But making direct eye contact with a customer and choosing not to acknowledge them, not even with a simple "Hi, we'll be right with you," is disappointing and leaves a poor impression. Overall, the experience was less than stellar. I would have appreciated better communication and fresher food, but hopefully this feedback helps improve future service for others. read more

My family have been treating me out to lunch lately. (My mental health thanks them!) My mom and I were hungry so I drove us to Perko's! This was my first time eating at Perko's but not my mom's. I ordered a BBQ bacon cheeseburger w/fries. My mom ordered a club sandwich with sweet potato fries. She also ordered us a banana split that I forgot to take a picture of! Overall, the food was amazing! Great portion sizes. The service from our waitress was excellent as well. She was fast and efficient. (Can't remember her name.) The restaurant has plenty of seating and a homey vibe that I loved. Hopefully I'll be back soon for more yummy food! read more

My son picked up the food today this morning, and I ordered chili beans, it's so disappointing - chili bean was so bland, it does not taste like the chili bean from Wendy's. This restaurant is supposed to be sit down diner, but today is disappointing, it seems like they just opened a can of pinto beans and added some bland ground beef. The order was done on January 3, 2026, and pick up at around 10:00 am. read more

Food was amazing the service was great I asked for my bacon extra well done and I got it just how I like it it was perfect

Love this place!! Everything is so good! The banana split is huge. all of the staff is amazing

It is a nice cozy place. Services and servers were all great! I think one of the waiter is the owner's son. 1: Ultimate Dip (roasted tri-tip w/mushrooms & melted cheese in a rolled). 2: Splattered of Cakes (Sausages, eggs and clustered crepes over strawberry jam & whipped cream) Both dish were delicious! They were perfectly made I highly recommend this place to everyone. read more

We were in town for several hours for an appointment and had breakfast here. Excellent service! The wait staff was friendly, attentive and hard working. We never saw anyone just standing around. Food was great! We liked it so much we went back for lunch. Also excellent! Great service again, great food. Have to give a shout out to the milkshake. Wow!!! Real dryers ice cream not soft serve. Thick, whipped cream. Whole thing was perfection. We live an hour away but will make this Perko's a must stop when we travel south read more

Food is always good, staff is friendly and attentive. Love the remodel they did. Will always be one of my go to breakfast spots.

Food was great, staff is the absolute best. I was in town on work and was recommended. So, I have to spread the word. If you find yourself in Madera, CA Perko's is a must. Thank you Chris, Margarita and aunt Kim for the awesome meal!!! read more

I wasn't impressed soon as you walk in it smells old and dated service was ok , they gave you menus and brought you a beverage of your choice in timely fashion. I was very disappointed with the fish and chips. The fries overly salty and the fish had no salt / seasoning or flavor at all none.. They may have other menu items that are good however, in my opinion, if they cannot do the fish and chips, then I wouldn't trust it. read more

We started going to Madera Speedway about 4 years ago and the track staff said this is the place to go for good food. So four years ago we tried in and have been coming back here every race season since. We are here for 10 weekends of the year and every time we have perkos at least twice per visit. Our favorite meal is breakfast. Don't get me wrong all the food is good but breakfast does us in. My favorite is the breakfast burrito. Bacon, eggs, country potatoes, cheese and I'm happy. My husband orders the tommy burrito (which is not on the menu). This burrito has country fried steak and eggs (over medium is best), with gravy and tater tots. My husband likes to add a slice of cheddar cheese but that's up to you. This burrito was created by the staff not us. It's worth every bite. My kids love the oatmeal, the pancakes and the waffles. They are teenagers so they aren't as picky as when they were little. The strawberry lemonade is delicious and has tons of floating strawberries in it and sugar on the rim. Sorry no good pics. My husband finished it the moment it hit the table. read more

Was visiting family in Madera and they invited me here. The staff were really nice & attentive! Checking up on us frequently and getting asked if we wanted more refills. As for the food, it was delicious! I kept trying a bit of the rest of the food that my family ordered and all of the dishes were delicious. Would come again, if I'm ever near here. read more

Went for dinner last night. Glad to find another Madera business to frequent. I had the Chinese chicken salad. It is super delicious. The peanut sauce dressing and the crispy chicken really make this a dish I will order again and again. My husband had the loaded chicken with Mac n cheese(box) and mashed potatoes with gravy. We loved it all. The service is wonderful and attentive. The dining room has historical Madera charm. It's been a long time but we are glad we went. Will be by again soon. To try your other dishes. read more

My Parents really enjoy coming here so for Sunday morning breakfast we got invited to join them and my other siblings. Place was pretty busy on Sunday morning. Food took a bit long to get to use but like I said they were busy. Food was hot when we got it coffee tasted fresh and it was nice and hot. It didn't have that burnt or bitter taste that you sometimes get from other restaurants. Chicken fried steak for breakfast is delicious. The Hame and egg omelette was also good. Food is good staff is friendly and nice. They know my parents by name so that tells me my parents come here often lol. Will be coming g back. read more

The service was excellent and the food was good. There were 8 of us and the girl did great. I would go back again if in town.

While in the area we stopped at Perko's for breakfast. The restruant was clean and comfortable. We had two serbvers, Chris and Raidena. They were polite and friendly. Our orders came out quickly. My coffee cup was kept filled. I had the morning scramble with fresh fruit. The food was tasty. I ordered a scrambled egg to go for our puppy. It came without bill. read more

Great flavors but sad potatoes! Overall, nice atmosphere! It was super busy but I never mind crowd noise. The service didn't feel the most personable, we never got checked up on :( Im also a little disheartened when i ask for crispy and receive the opposite! Aha! If you like crispy potatoes make sure they know it! Personally, next time I go back I'll make a fuss about potatoes! Like I said the food tasted great!! :) Would recommend! read more

Civic-19 phase: My mother called in and said she wanted to place a curbside pick up. He immediately put her on hold and we could hear them talking and having multiple conversations. Not good ones either. The guy said a woman had a "mouse trap." This was for over 5 minutes. My mother became irritated and called back. The worker was nice and just said they were very busy. She ordered the country fair cinnamon roll and an egg white omelet with sliced turkey, fresh spinach and tomatoes and added bell peppers, avocado and onions. He said it would be 10 minutes. She called in when we got there. He said it would be out shortly and it was. He said they are crazy busy and he was serving alone. He was not masked, but he did have gloves on. Very nice. Took the food home to enjoy. The omelet was very good! Fresh tomatoes and liked the turkey meat. Fresh veggies and loved the cottage cheese! The cinnamon rolls was absolutely not a fair cinnamon roll. It was dry and not much frosting. Great omelet! read more

I don't really leave reviews but this was scary. I bit into my burrito and bit into a metal piece. The metal end of the chorizo packet. Very disturbing. Went back to tell them, they made me a new one. Had to wait pretty long though. Got offered a water... a water. Asked for a strawberry lemonade, got a kids size... and then turns out my order was still wrong after I got home. I'm sure many of you enjoy this place but this is my personal experience.

"Roasted" Turkey. I've seen this on their menu during breakfast visits aand always wondered if they really had carved turkey available upon request/year round. I recently ordered it via Grubhub because baby and I were sick and wasn't up to cooking. They do NOT have it available, instead they sent grilled turkey deli slices. I was absolutely disappointed and upset! Why not say it's not available so I could've ordered something different?? Crappy dinner on top of an already crappy day. Thumbs down! read more

It is very rare to find a restaurant this excellent and with a menu choice so extensive with so many choices it is hard to pick just one! But the waiters and waitresses were great and the food so excellent we couldn't wait to come back. And we did three times in two days! Plus we got to cater two meals out to our entire Race Official staff at the track across the street. Rarely is anything totally eaten with this team, but these 2 meals were!!! Great job Perko's. Can't wait to come back here. BNK 177 read more
