Reviews for Don Pericos Mexican Restaurant in Bakersfield, CA

Slappin! I showed up to meet a friend who had already been there eating and I showed up unfortunately unknowingly right before... closing. They still served me with a full meal it was hot I wouldn't even have known it was a few minutes before closing andthey stayed afterward to make sure I was happy. Read more

The lady up front is very polite, the food was delicious. There was another waiter or maybe the manager wearing a red shirt that... checked on us to see if we were satisfied or needed something else. I like the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The bar isseparated from the main dinning tables and I love that because as a mother I'm always looking for places to have dinner andpeace with my children... Read more

DOS: 8/26/2022 5PM Food: Ordered the tamale and chili verde enchiladas. Did not enjoy either dish. The tamale was served cold... and the chili verde didn't have that much spice or flavor. The rice must've been under a heat lamp because the top of it wasliterally hard and crunchy! The beans were the only thing I enjoyed. Drinks: I had 3 margaritas regular house margarita, FruitPunch and a Banana. The house margarita had absolutely NO flavor. Do not get it. However, the Fruit Punch and Banana were SOgood! I throughly enjoyed them both. Service: The young Latino waiter we had was very nice and got all our orders right,however, he was also very slow. I think we waited like 20 min for our check. No bueno. If you don't mind waiting, Iddefinitely only recommend going here for drinks. Read more

Again, visited here, again so impressed. They have a FABULOUS weekday lunch specials. Both my husband and I got the two item... combination. He got two cheese enchiladas with rice and beans and I got one tamale and one chili relleno with rice and beans.Both were AMAZING! When I asked for mild salsa for chips, was informed they didn't have, but was given a FABULOUS mild chiliverde sauce instead. Was wonderful! We got water with lemon with our meals. The total bill for two AMAZING meals was less than$25.00 - again AMAZING. Read more
