El Perón

I would have to say… its just okay. I ordered the Steak Burrito and I have to be honest the flavor almost tasted like a cheeseburger trying to be a burrito. I didn’t want to finish it… but I did. I don’t know what sauce they added but it was definitely different than most beef burritos I ate. If only they change their flour tortillas also. It was sort of stale and doesn’t help the flavor. I tried to like this place.
I was craving Mexican food and coming from California it’s so hard to compare. Since I live in Norwalk, CT now I thought this would be a nice recovery of Mexican food and its walking distance.
I do have to appreciate the staff. They were super nice to me when I was there. So I hope in the future their recipe would change since they’re very friendly people also.

Delicious! My husband and I ordered take-​out from here and were thoroughly impressed. I had the quesadilla (ordered 2 as they are small) and my husband had the parrillada. We also had guacamole and chips… guac was fresh and delicious. Will definitely be going back soon. Try it!

Nicely renovated, cleaned up from previous 2? scruffy Chinese take-​out restaurants. Good friendly service, but the food is very mediocre and that is being generous. There are dozens of MUCH better Mexican places all over Norwalk with better value and taste. Several are just ½ mile south on Main St. This one is not worth a return visit.

I love trying out new places to eat. The staff is friendly and the menu looks good. I had carne asada. The rice was tasteless and seemed left over from another day. The meat was cooked very well done, was dry and not much flavor either. The highlight were the beans. I will try it again, maybe it’s just a bad day for them, but with so many great mexican places to eat around here, they need to step up their game a bit to survive

I came here last week with my boyfriend. I ordered a pork quesadilla, the guy repeated my order to me and then brought me out a BEEF TACO. When I tried to say I asked for a quesadilla he told me I had ordered the taco. The taco wasn’t even all that. They also said they would bring us more chips and then never did.

This new Mexican restaurant is a tremendous addition to the area. The signature El Peron sauce is excellent, I had it draped over a lengua burrito. Definitely worth a visit due to the quality of both food and ambiance.

Great tacos with generous portions and home cooked flavor. The (free!) homemade chips and salsa are excellent. There’s a warm, friendly, family feel here and all of the servers are really nice. I took my daughter, who doesn’t deal with spicy, and she inhaled the salsa and her tacos — they customized them to her Americano palette. For me, they brought out a few nice and complex sauces that put some sweat on my forehead and a smile on my face. It’s nice to find a place that cares about their food and their customers.
