Reviews For Pelon's Baja Grill Oceanfront

I decided to revisit Pelon's for lunch because it had been about 15 years since my last visit. I wasn't a big fan back then but WOW, what a fantastic experience I had this time! The service was great. A young man helped me decide what to order and he was super nice and helpful. The Surf & Turf burrito was one of the best burritos I've ever eaten. It was stuffed FULL of shrimp and the most delicious steak strips. It needed no sauces all, it was burrito perfection. I'm definitely impressed with the current Pelon's, as well as my husband (he got a couple bites of the burrito). Can't wait to go back!

This is a Mexican fast food restaurant where you order and sit down and the food gets brought to you with a number. You can leave your dirty plates on the table someone will come clear it. There's a bar in this restaurant but no wait staff. The nachos was delicious. There is plenty of cheese on this nacho. It is missing jalapeno and diced tomatoes but still tasted very good. Carne asada tacos were pretty good. Carne asada quesadillas was very good as well. The food here is not too greasy and pretty tasty.

This has always been a great spot, and still is. I needed to take the time to write another review because whoever the manager or person working the register on 5/24/25 at 8:30pm was by far the most professional and kind person I have ever dealt with in the restaurant industry. We had a party of 4 adults and 2 babies under a year old, showed up 30 mins before close and this guy went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. I hope the owners see this and give him the props he deserves, he’s a big reason we’ll keep coming back (plus the food is great!)

Very good! I had been to the location by Nimmo before and enjoyed the fish tacos there so I came here as I was close by. I swapped the corn tortilla for flour at a .50 upcharge. I ordered 2 chicken and 2 fish. I couldn't eat the 4th one so I took it home. This is a walk up to the counter and order place. They give you a number and bring the food out. The line moved quickly. My only complaint was the ac was on really cold it was blowing right on us. I tried to move tables but it didn't help. Normally I like temp on colder side but it was 68 outside and nighttime so not sure why the ac was blowing so cold when the day had only been about 78-80. It won't keep me from going back.

Stopped in to try their breakfast burritos (Texas girl looking for a fix) - and I’m definitely impressed! The burritos had delicious ingredients and came out super hot, ready to eat. Large portions! Service was friendly and parking made it easily accessible. I’ll be back!

The fish tacos were AMAZING! I get fish tacos wherever they’re available, and these were the best fish tacos I’ve ever had — EVER! I even got a second order because they were so awesome. The music was great, everything was clean, and the service was friendly and quick. I couldn’t recommend this place more highly.

We had a great time! We sat at the bar with Sam, and he was very attentive and personable. The cheese dip was delicious, as well as the shrimp and steak tacos! There was way too much cheese on the shrimp nachos, but overall, the food was great!
