This is ONLY a five star review because of one employee. A few days ago we had a mobile order and…read morethey forgot several items. I had called to talk to the manager and he wrote down my name so that I could come in and get replacement items. When we went back in today, the first person just gave us three random burritos, which wasn't even what we ordered. So we were trying to get it corrected, and this other employee set aside what he was doing just to help us. I didn't get his name but I think he was blond and had earrings. He was so nice and so helpful! He personally made the order right after asking what we were missing, he wrote it down and made it all himself. That is what customer service should look like. He even said that it was on them (which I wasn't giving anyone a hard time at all- I've also worked in customer/food service so I know what it's like to be on the other side) but we really appreciated this one employee because he actually took the time to make it right. No one else there really seemed to care, but he did, and Taco Bell frequently either doesn't give us the right things, or is "out" of things, so it meant a lot that he actually put the time and effort into making us feel heard and making the order right. If this was simply about the first experience the other day or most other times, it wouldn't be five stars, but this employee definitely does his job well and is very good with people. He deserves a raise!

Ample parking, an extensive menu of well prepared dishes, friendly service ... and terrific margaritas. We were puzzled, therefore, to drop in on a Saturday night well before closing, and find the restaurant nearly deserted, with just two other customers at a lone table. We ordered large margaritas and a nachos appetizer plate-- and the bill, before tax and tip, was more than $51. Even taking inflation into account, this is a price point that we simply cannot afford, so if we dine here again, we'll check out the lunch menu first, or order judiciously from the dinner menu.

Food options are plentiful and heat is available in mild, medium and hot although our medium plus could probably have been a little hotter. The naan, cooked in a traditional oven, is super light and flavorful. Love the option that includes a mixed variety from the grill that allowed us to try a little bit of the chicken, lamb, and shrimp. The vegetable brown was very good and the Samosa had a great flavor.

Everyone was happy with their meal. The portions were large, so three of us took to-go boxes. My only critique on the food is that the garlic bread was a thick hunk of toasted bread with a little butter but did not have any garlic flavor. The homemade croutons are made from the unused garlic bread and had a good flavor, so I'm not sure why the bread served with the meal was lacking in flavor. Perrett's is different from the usual Italian restaurant as it was surprising to see stroganoff soup and some Tex-Mex and Asian inspired dishes on the menu, but the food was good. I would eat here again and maybe try one of the tex-mex inspired dishes just to see what it's like.
