Whoa, the burrito was way yummier than what I expected from a veggie burrito! Tacos were good and perfect size. The ingredients they use here are definitely fresh and not prepackaged. The chips are made fresh & the salsas as well. The avocado salsa was BOMB! You can taste the roasted poblano in it which is one of my & my mother in laws favorite flavor. Highly recommend.

We went there after long time. We ordered our usual spinach cheese pupusuas and veggie burrito…read more They did not have spinach and they told we can fo Loroco and Cheese and they told it is vegetarian, we took a chance and then I was looking up Loroco as i was not familiar with that and never tried it. Loroco is an edible, unopened flower bud from a Central American vine, and is a staple in Salvadoran cuisine, especially in pupusas. When the dish came it just tasted like spinach! Take a look at the pictures. Burritos was were i was disappointed, the gave a platter instead of Burrito, but they quickly complied to take it back wrapped it up in tortilla. But when we split rice and bean was on one side and vegetables on the other, which diluted the whole experience. We got another burrito to go, which was also folded wrong Wow I learnt how wrong way of folding a Burritos can bring this much difference. Also their Jalapenos were not having the kick. So this trip did not turn out well. So reducing a star. Hope next time they will earn it back. .

I will definitely be hitting this place up post surf when I'm in the area. We got the ceviche in salsa roja. For $25 it fed the two of us perfectly and I have a big appetite. I ordered an extra side of tostada chips for $2. The ceviche was so tasty with crunchy bits of mango, onion, and cucumber. It was super spicy but we love spice. The people next to us ordered shrimp tacos and we're just saying 'damn so good' with each bite so those are a hit too.

Mexican Food: 4/5 (I've had better and I wish there were specials) Service: 4.5/5 stars (attentive, but forgot my chardonnay) Sound: 3/5 stars indoors (loud!) 5/5 stars outdoors I had chimichurri steak and it was okay, but kind of greasy? Overall, a fun place to visit and get the Capitola experience. I would suggest sitting outdoors if it isn't too bright or hot.

Best breakfast burrito I have ever had!…read more I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito which had egg, potato and cheese. It is a large portion for a good price.

I always…read moreenjoy how they are one of the few taquerias that offer free chips and salsa with every purchase. Their service is great, the cashier was very polite and took an interest into where their customers are from. Los Pericos is a bit small considering there is always a line at the register so I prefer to pick up food to go to enjoy at the beach whenever in town. Overall rating was 4/5! I ordered the wet burrito with Al Pastor and added extra carne asada, and holy moly did they stack it fat. This is one of the largest burritos I got with my forearm as reference for size. I thoroughly enjoyed this item and I always get it whenever I come! JD Big Back Tip: Eating this bad boy with some chips is amazing, as the sauce and tremendous amount of protein from this order lets you enjoy the wet burrito and nacho experience all at once.

Had lunch here today with the family…read more.. Pros- food was tasty. There were plenty of seats, both shaded and in the sun. Very dog friendly...including ours, there were 4 dogs in total. It's also in a cool location, several other eateries and drink spots to check out. We had 2 super burritos that were customized (one no sour cream, one no beans, both with 2 meats. The crispy beef tacos (fam favorite), and a fish taco (too spicy for me!), oh and chips and salsa. Cons- the super burritos were supposed to come with guacamole, but neither did. Didn't think about it until my son asked, but we were pretty much done eating at that point. We also had to pay for chips and salsa. Never a fan of that. The bag of chips and the salsa containers were also small. If you're going to charge, you should make it worth it for the customer(s). With tip, it was just over $70 bucks in total. Overall we all enjoyed our meal. Next time I'll look for the guacamole earlier, to make sure we get it! The location is near my son's place, so we will likely be back!
