The food was fantastic, we were a table of 15 and our waiter was incredible. The food and drinks just kept coming. Absolutely love this place
This place was amazing. In Joburg from Texas and we are so greatful to have found Perron. It is common for us to eat Mexican 2 to 3 times a week and this has been a struggle while in SA. Well, the struggle is no more. This will be where we can get our Mexican fix. We all got a different dish and a couple of appetizers. EVERYTHING was a 10 out of 10!!
I have eaten at Perron many times, and each time I go there it gets better and better. Staff are always friendly and accommodating. Food is excellent with so many different options to choose from that we always land up ordering more than we can eat. What is really great are the many vegetarian options. It’s one of the few places that my girlfriend (vegetarian) and I (carnivore) can both have a lovely meal together. The atmosphere is perfect for an intimate date night, or a rowdy get together with all of your friends. Oh yes – don’t forget the chilli poppers and imported tequila – marvellous!
One of the better places in JHB :)
Absolute taste explosion of flavour, great atmosphere and decor. Service is on point.
Hola muchachos y muchachas! I took my parents for Mother's Day last weekend and we had the abolute best time ever. The food was superb - beautifully spiced and tasty and the bloody marias and mojitos weren't shabby either. We took the advice and had a variety of starters and nibbles and mains and ended with the dulce de leche desert. If I could have had all of it again immediatly, I most certainly would have. I cannot wait to go back and chasing friends so we can do just that.
We went to the Illovo Perron this week for dinner with friends. Food was sensational! Our waitress was awesome and attentive too with great advise and tips on what to eat and drink. We had a great time� we will definitely be back!
Fantastic food and drinks. Loved the tapas style options that gives you lots of variety in your meal. Great music and staff too.
Excellent Food! So many delicious flavours. Service was also excellent, thank you to Chelsea for taking care of our table so well! Highly recommend the steak strip Burrito and the Corn on the Cob.
Awesome place to go for Tequilas, Tacos & Cocktail Jugs! The music and atmosphere is relaxed. This really is a go-to spot for Mexican food and a chilled night out.
A small glimpse of our exceptional evening spent at Perron in Bryanston on Valentines Day.
Food 5/5:
Amuse Bouche:
The Vegetarian Amuse Bouche option..
Chilled peach soup with Belnori Goat's Cheese and croutons. An interesting combination of sweet and salty, with good texture coming through from the goat's cheese and crunchy croutons. This dish certainly did impress!
Seabass ceviche Amuse Bouche with watermelon gazpacho and coriander. Light, refreshing and full of flavour!
To start.. Tostada with achiote braised pork shoulder, apple, chilli and fennel slaw.
Mains..
Adobe marinated stuffed chicken, Jalapeño potato cake, black bean puree and tomatillo salsa verde.
Dry aged Angus beef with black been purée, burnt baby onion, lime Béarnaise and Mexican potatoes. What stood out for me on this dish.. The lime Béarnaise! A tangy, creamy sauce that complimented the Angus beef perfectly!
And to end off what has been an incredible Valentine's Day meal, for dessert.. Cheesecake crème brûlée, salted caramel ice-cream, honeycomb, gooseberries and sesame seeds.

It is safe to say that Perron is definitely in my Top 5 of good Mexican restaurants. They have the best tacos 🌮 and amazing nachos, with a great tomato salsa and guacamole. The atmosphere makes you feel as if you’re a tourist in Mexico City and you come across a show-stopping restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere. They have attentive service and I’d definitely recommend them for lunch or dinner.
One of my favorite mexican places in Jo'burg. I have visited the place almost 3 times in the 2 months and could never get bored or tired of the food. As soon as you enter, just order the Naked Mexican (if you are a beer lover): this beer is just bonkers amazing. Goes with anything to eat.
When it comes to food, these are list of my fav ones to definitely try from
1. Their famous "Jalapeno Poppers"
2. Spicy Chicken Quesadillas
3. They have a massive selection of Tacos (choose anyone according to your pallet)
4. The "Chilli" and "holy mole" is amazing as main courses
5. Make a grand finish with "Churros" and "Warm hearted chocolate pudding"
Definitely a go to place for Mexican food lovers (I am, :D)
Cheers!!
Been to this place a few times... Their food is consistent and always tasty... The burrito is huge you don't need to have starters if you are having the burrito.... Very chilled vibe. Good menu has something If you not so hungry and lots of drinking options
Stoped here for drinks.and decided to have a small bite .Wednesdays they run a special eat as much as you like of their small plates for R150pp.Though we just had the popcorn chicken taco 🌮 ,which was really good,it had nice favors but need heat in my opinion.the hot sauce on the table needs some improvement.the service was attentive!nice chill place with good food and an extensive tequila menu
The best restaurant to enjoy Mexican cuisine. It has variety of choices in the menu and the food is delicious with a good quantity . We had chicken burritos, tacos ,nachos and churros which is a mexican doughnut served with chocolate sauce. The place has a pleasant ambience with peaceful music ,dim lights . The service is real quick and staff is generous . Good place to enjoy a meal with friends.
if you like Mexican food then Perron must in your list
we had nachhos,tachos, churros and much more
food options are awesome and everything will melt in your mouth and ginger beer was like heaven
really had nice experience
thank you Perron
I think this is the best Mexican food around. The portion sizes are very generous and the food is full of flavour. They also have a very wide tequila selection.
Beautiful Mexican food. The must try Los más pequeños are the cauliflower & split pea tostadas, sweet potato quesadillas and the fish tacos 🌮
If you enjoy Mexican food then this is the place to go.
I have eaten here a number of times and have never been disappointed. Great menu with a wide choice of items and lots of tequila. Service is also very good.
My favourite restaurant at the moment.
So for the last week, i was seriously craving tacos, when i discovered this joint on Zomato, and decided to give it a try.
It was a cold women’s day, but Peron created a cozy atmosphere with the gas heaters scattered throughout. We were greated with a smile and were seated immediately, we decided to go a bit early as to avoid a jam packed place, the free sparkling wine was a nice touch.
We first started with the pulled pork, chicken and lamb tacos. I cannot fault any of them. The size was actually very big from what i expected and the filling really generous.
I especially liked the crema that was accompanied on most of them as it broke the spice, the red onion provided that freshness and rounded the dish off perfectly. The gaucemolle was fresh and creamy.
The chicken had an amazing batter, it was light and crispy and chicken sizable chunks and incredibly moist. The pulled pork was done to perfection, soft, succulent and saucy. The lamb had incredible flavour and was so soft that you hardly had to chew, the fish was okay, the batter was crispy but a bit to much and overpowered the fish a bit.
So all and all a very well done to Perron Bryanston, you provided us with a delicious women’s day lunch. Will definitely be back for more!
What an INCREDIBLE foodie experience! Some of the most flavourful, authentic cuisine I’ve ever tasted, from the most friendly staff I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with. I cannot wait to be back to try a few more flavors!
Good Mexican Food. Shelton our waiter was brilliant. A variety of cocktails served by the glass or jar. Quite a noisy restaurant as the tables are close together.
At last.... A great Mexican restaurant! Gorgeous colourful decor. Food fantastic!! Service good. The tasters are a bit pricey for the portion size but still worth it. Pork belly a huge thumbs up!!! Burritos big and delicious! Perfect for a casual and vibey experience paired with deee-licious food, love this place!
I went to Perron with a group of ladies and was very impressed with the service and food. We ordered cocktails, which were a bit pricey but nevertheless delicious. From the food we ordered the carnitas which was ok, definitely my least favorite dish, the sauce was a bit bland and corn bread stale. The other dishes were amazing. We had the tuna tostadas, fish taco and thompadre burrito. My favourite was the fish taco as it tasted very fresh and crispy. For dessert we had churros, which were delicious, however, I do think they could be served with a bit more sauce. Overall had a lovely night and will definitely be back here!!
Outstanding service - the waiters really know their menu! The food is all so good, I just have to keep coming back to try new dishes. My favourite thing is to try a variety of tacos and share with friends. The churros are a perfect end to a fabulous meal.
We love Perron, awesome atmosphere, waiters on the ball, food fun and yummy, wine and beers fairly priced. Only thing I could add is their pulled pork needs more flavor, I find it a little bland..
Great vibe and Mexican food. The fish soft shell tacos are amazing and a good lunch size with another shared plate. I’ll go back just for those
A lovely birthday evening spent at Perron. Food was excellent. Subtle flavours and very tasty - we tried 5 of the "little ones" and they turned out to be quite substantial! And even though we were replete we still had the churros for dessert! Wine was fabulous, service good for a busy evening and the restaurant was definitely abuzz with patrons. All in all...a great experience.
One of my favourite Mexican restaurants in JHB. This one has particularly good service and friendly staff! Favourites are sashimi taco and fish taco.
Great atmosphere!
Perron has become or go to place for Mexican food...and we come often. The food is always consistent - our favorites are the steak tacos, jalapeño poppers and frozen margaritas. The food is delicious. Sometimes the service is not responsive enough, but depends on the waiter. It has a great vibe when the restaurant is full.
Great food, healthy vegetarian options ! A little noisy...a wider range of egg free desserts needed. The service was wonderful ! We will definitely be back here...
I have a weakness for Mexican food - and the whole 'vibe' that surrounds it! Colourful, vibrant, full of flavour. And of course, the most divine cocktails! Perron has been on my radar for a while now, and it was worth the wait :) Beautiful decor, and great menu! But we were there for the tacos! We ordered an assortment of soft tacos - pulled pork, beef, chicken and fish tacos. So delicious! If I must choose a favourite I will have to say that I enjoyed the chicken the most. Lovely ambience, good service, great cocktails!
It's such a secret gem! I love the bright and eccentric decor
The food is yummy and the service is great...they also make a mean whiskey sour 😋
Visited this lovely quaint restaurant again last night. This place never disappoints, the vibe is lovely not too loud, service is good, the food is amazing and absolutely value for money. I can't wait to go back, I'm on a mission to try everything on their menu.
Well this was a pleasant surprise! I'm not that into Mexican food... but this place was really nice. Cocktails were really really good! And the waiter was divine! Service was excellent!
Absolutely loved everything about this place... stunning decor, great service and delicious food.
Perron is a great spot for Mexican Tapas! We tried the fish, chicken and lamb tacos and all were simply delicious. Our favorite was the fish... the batter was light and crispy and the fish was melt in your mouth good. We also tried popeye empanadas..which was yum!
Dessert was churros, and wow.. sooo good.. if we had any more space in our tummies, we would have ordered round 2. The cocktails were yum and there was an interesting selection to pick from.
Overall a good experience! And we will be returning to work our way through that tapas menu!
There is no doubt that the food is truly awesome!!! However, portions are small and a tad expensive!!! A dinner with a few people will be a fun, but expensive experience.
I also find the menu a tad limiting and more variety would be great!
This visit was to celebrate my birthday and it was for Sunday lunc. We had delicious food and cocktails.. The meals are a bit pricey for the size of portion but the flavors were amazing in every dish we received. The ambience was great with Mexican style music and Mexican theme in the restaurant is inviting. Will go back!

First time visiting Perron in Bryanston. I had the popcorn polo tacos which was delicious. The service was above average but not fantastic. The waiter was quite aloof. Disappeared as faster than he appeared.
One patron at our table ordered the "deconstructed" nachos. The waiter refused to take it back just to melt the cheese. Not an unreasonable request I fe
We had lunch at Perron Bryanston. I really loved the trendy Mexican theme. We ate a selection of tacos - fish, chicken and pork. My favourite was the popcorn polo chicken taco. We also shared a churro with chocolate sauce. Food was good. I liked that we had a selection of little things to choose from. Their magarita selection was interesting and delicious. Cost was about R450 for 2 people.

Perron at Hobart has a really cool vibe to it, the food is pretty good, I ordered lamb tacos and steak tacos, both hard shell. The steak was spicy and tasty, however the lamb was a bit bland. Churros were fried a bit too long and came out a bit brown.
I love the decor here, pink and blue and floral wallpaper is totally up my alley!
Service was friendly and efficient, we brought in a cake as we were celebrating a birthday and they were very accomodating.
The food was good, well flavoured, decent portions. The lamb taco and jenny chow are my favs from what I've eaten here. The tamales were a bit of a let down, slightly dry and not particularly well filled or portioned. After watching 100s of episodes of diners drive ins and drives I just expected so much more!
Overall though, great vibe and good food so a safe choice for an evening out.
This is my second time eating at Perron however my first time at the Perron in Hobart shopping center. The restaurant is much livelier and more spacious compared to the Illovo branch. The service was a tad bit too slow however the great food makes up for it. I tried the Mushroom Quesadillas, Corn Fritters with sweet potato , Fish taco , and cauliflower tacos. For dessert I had the churro with a coconutty caramel sauce. Everything was superb! Can't wait to go back 🎉
One day the hard shell steak striper taco (my fav) is amazing, the next day, its not. The basting on street porn/corn is outstanding. I also like the battered fish balls in the fish taco. The churros and arancini can be a hit or miss. Yesterday, i had churros that were rather doughy in the middle and were all sugar outside. The service is generally good
Absolutely loved this place. Its pretty inside with some colourful ceiling lampshades, coloured walls, chairs, interesting ceiling and a well displayed bar feature.
We tried some nibbles and the little ones. Flavours were amazing with just hints of spiciness. Special mention to the lamb tacos and carnita. My cocktail was so yum. Ended with the churros and a decadent chocolate tart with really strong cappuccinos.
Noted the range of tequila shooters options and cocktails jugs but it was a lazy Sunday so next time!
Really enjoyed the Mexican food experience. Beef Taco was a good size portion and packed full of flavour. I would eat here again. Attentive service. I would have preferred to order churros for dessert...next time
I just love Perron, the Bryanston branch seems to be busier and have a more vibey atmosphere. The food is always good, my go to dish is the fish tacos and sweet potato fritters. The cocktails are great and have very unique flavors

Perron is a beautifully decorated, spacious and neat place!!! There is ample parking in the shopping Centre. The restaurant staff are welcoming and helpful. There are many options for vegetarians which is awesome :) I ordered a mushroom quesadilla which was absolutely divine! Wasn't tooooo hungry and it was the perfect size to fill the gap. The quesadilla was crunchy and fresh and tasted so amazing with the fillings. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal!
If you're into tequila or if you think tequila is more than just a grimace inducing party animal maker and you have a pile of money you just don't care for then Perron is for you.
The food is goodish, small and pricey but goodish. Kinda standard mex fare with a little fanciness.
The tequila selection is great and you can order a samgrita which is like a tomato juice chaser and thats pretty rad. The jugs of cocktails are great too.
Service is what you'd expect from a sleeping mexican in a busy bar.
Price is highish end. You want 2 or 3 tequilas and a couple of beers plus one or 2 plates of food and you're in for 500 bucks. Boom.
So yeah, perron is fine. Tequila is fine.
I have to give Perron a 5 for the unbelievable service we received last night even though they were under pressure with a very busy Restaurant and limited staff....the food was outstanding as well...I now get why people say 'Salsa' doesn't serve real Mexican food! This was phenomenal, the tuna sashimi taco's, the steak...and the margarita was all outstanding! With a manager and staff who really care, this is a true gem!
Lovely Sunday with friends enjoying good Mexican. The service was good. Was not as busy and squashy as the illovo chain, spacious seating and good location. The food was good, tacos, burritos and nachos was the most popular.
The food is very good! Good portions for the tapas. Waiters attentive & pleasant- also knowledgeable regarding the menu. Would recommend this restaurant- worth your money.
Venue is nice, service was very good, food comes out fast, food was really good. A slightly more pricey than Salsa Mexican restaurant but overall great experience.
A hipster wet dream. I don't recall how we ended up here but my word, it's dope. The decor, the ambience, the staff. It was taco Tuesday and I was still going through my pescatarian vibe so I had the fish option, K had the beef. Absolutely divine. The cocktails had me blabbering like a toddler. Elderflower, lime and basil for moi, an El Diablo for the sweetheart. I haven't been there for some time but I'll be sure to add more photos when I do. Perfect for a first date or creative inspiration.
Very good Mexican restaurant. Service was attentive, manager on hand to make sure everything was running smoothly. Ambience also very good. Will be back here.
Authentic Mexican food👍 Great ambience and delicious food. My favourite is the Popcorn Pollo Taco and Mushroom Taco 👌 great value for money!
Nice and relaxed hangout for a Friday afternoon. The food was better than I expected. Had chicken quesadillas and beef tacos. The quesadillas were nice, fresh and light. The meat in the tacos could have been more tender. The service wasn't that great...found ourselves looking around for a server a few times.
I have never been even closely inclined to rating a restaurant this high but Perron was just amazing. The service was amazing. The food was better and the dessert was glorious. My husband and I shared the jalapeño poppers, steak stripper tacos, spicy chicken quesadillas and mushroom quesadillas. Every was an amazing. I especially loved the mushroom quesadilla and the beef tacos. I ordered extra of the latter. I was quite happy with life when a friend convinced me to try the churros. Oh. My. God. I'm in love forever and ever and ever. There is nothing more to be said. Book early, the place is always busy. Either way - GO!
This great little restaurant is packed full of character, my family and I loved it.The staff were very friendly and the service was fast. The food is wonderful such varied flavours even though it is tough picking something from the menu because everything just sounds delicious( and everything we ordered was!). The only suggestion is the music was not very fitting with the restaurant, I would play something bit more fun but just my opinion(The music sounded like nondescript contemporary music).
Restauranteurs, listen up! When a hungry person phones you at 7.30pm on a Saturday night and asks for a table, don't just say 'We're fully booked' and put the phone down. Take a leaf out of Perron's book. The guy answering the phone was so upbeat and so nice and so helpful. 'We're
full at the moment,' he said; 'but if you come along, we'll seat you at the bar; have a drink and as soon as there's a table... blah blah blah' Although by the nature of the food, tables here free up sooner than say at fine dining places. But still.
So we went around, and before our drinks were even put before us, we got a table.
Service was slick. Food arrived quickly.
The place is bigger than Perron, Illovo and the ambience different but it's also very nice.
Shared some pequenos - the little ones. Then you get to taste more. All good and beautifully presented, although I think I prefer Perron's, Illovo.
My only complaint - that dish with the prawns in the sauce - there was too little bread to mop up the sauce.
What an amazing restaurant, if you love mexican food and good tequila... this is the place to be.
Staff, food, venue and Tequila amazing loved this place. Will become a regular.
I like Perron for two reasons
- the ambience is casual and quirky - bright colours, lively crowds, energetic staff
- the food is decent - loved the chicken burrito, the fish tacos and the steak tacos
I don't like it because
- the food isn't consistent - sometimes the tacos are great, sometimes average, the portion size varies significantly
- the cocktail menu is limited if you don't like tequila
- it's extremely difficult to get a reservation :(
Overall, I've been back 3 times but it's not top of my list
A great spot for Mexican Tapas! Some of our favourites were the sweet potato plate, flaky and crisp empanada and the arancini (fried balls of rice cooked in coconut milk and served with roasted apples in a light ginger syrup and a sprinkling of cinnamon). Avoid the pulled pork, very dry and uninspiring.
We have been to other branches of Perror and food / ambience doesn't disappoint. Only thing I would say is service was slow but they were very busy.
Came to Perron for Sunday lunch when the Simply Asia next door messed us around. So glad we did. Had been to the Illovo branch ages ago and it was OK but nothing special. This branch is very cool. Nice location, good service and tasty Mexican fare. Highly recommend the Jalapeño poppers but not for the faint-hearted. The spinach empanadas were delicious. Will definitely be back for a longer Friday lunch, with wine
I'm so glad that Perron have moved past the days when a reservation was scarce and you were relegated to the bar if you hadn't booked eons in advance. Anyhoo the lack of options bought us back and even though we were seated at the bar, we were promptly moved to a table once we had ordered our drinks. The selection is sizeable and caters for those looking for a myriad of options to those who want a course based dining experience. The menu is a welcome departure from the stereotypical Mexican fast food style options and venturing into a more sophisticated culinary experience. We went straight for the small plates and each was a unique flavour combination that really offered something different and interesting. The flavours of the empanadas, tamales and tacos were delightful. Of course a Mexican kitchen isn't truly authentic without mole on the menu and we weren't disappointed. Would have liked to see a build your own option (as opposed to individual 'sides') for larger parties. Service was smooth and flowing. The small plates are a good tasting portion for 2 people as are the starters (although I don't quite understand why the 2 are separate). Plenty of options to entice for multiple visits. The only downside is the acoustics and the restaurant can get noisy even when not so crowded making conversation difficult.
Yay! I was soo excited to know that a branch opened up in this area. Tapas are my thing so Mexican tapas makes it even better. Try everything. Don't worry as the tequila help digest and make more space in the belly. You will need it as the vibe keeps you in a happy spirit !
Tried out this Perron branch and was so impressed!! I loved the vibe. The waiters were attentive and the food was excellent! A much better experience compared to the Illovo branch! I'll definitely be returning to Perron Hobart!
I love this place! The size of the meals are nice and small so you get to try a variety. The dessert, churros is also very delicious. I have it every time I come here. This place is always busy and vibing! They once gave us sombreros to wear and take pictures.
I visited this much anticipated restaurant with my daughter and what a great atmosphere it has. We both had burritos and they were huge. Delicious although a bit spicy for us. Unfortunately you can't order the amount of chille to be added. Looking forward to returning for one of those jugs of margaritas!! 🍸👍
After driving around jhb looking for a good restaurant we settled on Perron, decor absolutely beautiful and good vibe in the restaurant.
Good selection of drinks... had a non alcoholic lime mojito which was yummy... and soothed the burn from the jalapeño poppers.
Had a selection of small plates and a fish soft shell taco which all satisfied my hunger. Churros for dessert were freshly made although no coconut flavour in the coconut dulce de leche sauce.
Good night out 😊
Perron came highly recommended, so my experience was perhaps a little tainted by these expectations - and a little Mexican spot in Cape Town that I adore. Perron was decent, but just not authentic enough for my taste. Their less "Mexican" dishes were good, but the tacos were quite average. The service was quite naive (who doesn't know what a Flat White is in 2017?) and erratic. The desserts were good though. The environment is loud and bustling, perfect for a dinner with friends. I wouldn't recommend rushing there, but it's a decent enough spot for a chilled dinner.
Loved this place, my friends was there on Sat eve, and i must say service great, awesome tequila, love the Margarita Jug!!! Yummy, Mushroom Quesadilla and the quinoa salad was the yummy! will definitely be back for the awesome buzz!!!
Everything at Perron Bryanston was beyond expectations! Service was tops, so attentive without being intrusive. When we called to make a reservation they had none available but instead of turning us away they made a plan and seated us at a shared table instead which was actually pretty cool and made for a different experience.
The margaritas were divine and potent, no skimping on the tequila. We ordered a few tapas which I think is the best way to eat because you can try a few different things. The highlight, for me, was the ceviche - tangy, flavourful, refreshing - it was incredible! The waitress was wonderful, she offered up great suggestions like ordering the dulce de leche with the churros instead of chocolate which turned out to be delicious.
A little bit on the pricey side but I think you get what you pay for because I did not leave disappointed.
Probably my favourite restaurant at the moment. Excellent tapas selection. Fish taco's and mielies are great! Good cocktails! Great vibe. Friendly service. Go , you wont be disappointed!
Being a huge fan of Perron in Illovo, I was eager to see if the new branch lived up to the good name. Perron Bryanston is such a win!! I have sat at the restaurant and gotten take-always, both of which were delicious. The Beef Thompadre is my absolute favourite. It is so flavorful and portion sizes are generous. The jalapeño poppers are also great, and the cocktail jars are a win and make for a festive evening. When we got take-aways, it was in Valentine's Day through an UberEATS special. Unfortunately the Uber driver didn't anticipate the massive demand and it took ages for him to fetch the food from Perron and deliver it to us. Throughout the whole wait, after we initially called Perron to find out what was happening with the food, they continuously called us back to update us and apologize, which was great customer service.
I was very excited when a second Perron opened up closer to home. The standard of service and quality of food is on par with their flagship restaurant in Illovo. The food tastes freshly prepared and the portions generous, especially if you go for the bowls! Great service from the waitresses. Be sure to order a jug of margaritas!
Awesome place, AMAZING food and wonderful service...great wine selection. We really had a great evening with stunning variety of tastes in the various tapas. Thank you
I had an an early dinner this evening and tried the "killer guac" for nibbles whilst I waited for the kitchen to open . Killer guac is basically tortilla crisps with avocado salsa.
The avocado salsa was actually good I enjoyed it . I kept digging with those crisps 😩🙈🙉
Very fresh and colorful typical Mexican joint , totally love it !
I love the vibe here have tried it before just today was in a hurry so couldn't stay long.
Had pork belly for my mains served with. Mexican potatoes , re fried beans ...
My friend had the Sizzling steak we both enjoyed our meals .
I would highly recommend Perron if you in the mood for some good Mexican food and drinks ..
Sat by the patio it was lovely and refreshing.
Amazing food ! Take me to Mexico ✅✅

This place is always buzzing, lunch and dinner and you lucky if you get a table. Been a few times and recently tried taco Tuesday out and it did not disappoint. Great food, awesome vibe and friendly service. A must visit🤗
They have some great tasting food. Although they serve small portions, and aren't cheap.
However their food is Really good!
We were a table of three and decide to order a few of the "finger foods" (6 dishes), but had to order a few more to fill the tummies.
I grabbed a quick lunch with UberEATS from this Perron yesterday. The delivery time was about half an hour and when the food arrived it didn't look like much, plus the price was insane... over R100 for a burrito 😱 luckily I have some money off thanks to UberEATS referrals.
• Veektor Burrito: despite its appearance and exorbitant price, the burrito was so delicious! The tortilla was delicious and toasty (more like a roti actually), and it was filled with amazingly flavoured, fresh ingredients. I loved the amount of guac and chicken they stuffed in there, and the rice and beans were super tasty. It came with a side of hot and yummy salsa as well. Unfortunately the coleslaw accompaniment tasted a bit weird and almost soapy.
I would give them a 4 if their prices weren't so pricey, but the quality of the food is really good.
Lovely chilled evening at Perron with our supper club. We asked our waiter to bring us a selection of starters and then a selection of smaller dishes for mains so we got a chance to taste a lot of the items on the menu. It was all fresh and delicious! The iced margaritas are fantastic and they kept them coming. The manager was visible and active and popped over a number of times to make sure we were happy and taken care of. We ordered a few churros to end of the evening and they were light and delicious and the perfect end to a great meal. Thanks Perron!
This place is always a winner- never have been disappointed coming to this spot. We switched it up this time and sat at the bar- where Mike served us.. amazing amazing service, super friendly and efficient. Shout out to the kitchen staff for getting our food through so quickly!
Amazing food, amazing service - enough said.
Fave of the evening was the evening was our dessert- the arancini:)
Love Perron and Mexican food, sat at the bar had a great night. Food was awesome and Mikey & Glen were amazing - introduced us to some awesome tequila's
Amazing all round - vibe, service, food, drinks. Taco Tuesdays are a win. Desserts (churros and taquito) were divine! Margaritas delish! Will def go back!
I keep going back to Perron for two reasons...amazing margaritas & awesome vibe. I've decided that they make the best tacos too😉
This Bryanston one is just as good as the Illovo one. We had some nachos to start...I really enjoyed the dip. For mains I had the sashimi tuna taco...spicy tuna sashimi, soy sauce & agave syrup with sesame seeds & spring onions...these flavours worked wonderfully well together. I then had the 'prawns in adobe'...Mozambican prawns marinated in chilli & orange juice...this was so tasty that I wish there was more bread and a bigger portion.
For dessert we had the churros, of course...have to say these were better than the Illovo branch, although I felt the chocolate dip a bit bitter. All in all, a lovely experience and I'll definitely go back for the tuna tacos...delicious 🌮🌮🌮
My boyfriend took me out for dinner to Perron, Bryanston last night.. no pics (sorry! Date night and no phones!) We hadn't booked so arrived on the off-chance we could sit at the bar: the host was INCREDIBLY welcoming and helpful and as suspected, no tables available but plenty of space at the bar.
We shared a jug of frozen margherita and guac and tortilla chips to nibble on. The guacamole was delicious, only comment would be that it was a bit awkward to eat because it was placed at the bottom of a deep bowl & covered by the tortilla chips but otherwise yummy! We were quickly moved to a table (much to our delight but that said, we were super comfy at the bar!).
I ordered the chilli and my boyfriend had the Gordo burrito (with pork pibil and pink onions). My chilli was AMAZING! Very spicy, flavorsome with all the sides and rice: made a perfectly satisfying dish, I'd go back today to have it again! BF said the burrito was great (and he's not a Mexican food fan!) so all in all, a great evening. I can't wait to go back!
I needed to give my body a break from sushi so I checked out the Zomato app for lunch spots close to the office that were not Chinese or Asian...this spot came up and the ratings looked good enough for me to venture out and experiment..
My lunch partner and I had a giggle at some of the names of the dishes on offer, but decided to raise our minds out of the gutter and focus on the item descriptions (after googling some of the names in the Urban dictionary.. )
We settled on a selection of the "small ones"; fish, beef, pork and vegetarian.
Vegetarian option - Tamales - oh my word were these not the most delicious vegetables I have tasted! Did have a slight ARGH THAT'S HOT moment when I dipped my portion into the little sauce bowl served on the side though..my taste buds were declared positively "girly" as apparently its not that hot.
Slow Cooked Pork Taco - just underscored my love of all things pig...
Steak Stripper Taco - oh stop giggling, it was great.
Fish Taco - my personal favorite, the lime just complimented the fish so well.
Dessert had to be tried out considering its a Dry January and my usual glass of Sav Blanc was noticeable by its absence.
The Chocolate Fulana (that's one of the googled words in the urban dictionary..) was originally going to be shared but after the first bite I reminded myself that I was an only child and had never learnt the concept of sharing..
Will definitely be back when I am off the wagon as I think a few tequila's, some additional people and loads more "small ones"will make another memorable occasion...
Booked for our camera club year end supper. Was worried it would be too noisy & fast paced like Illovo but not at all! Much more relaxed and chilled vibe! Service for a table of 10 was great but confusion around what was starters and mains meant some people's main course arrived with starters. Shared nachos which were very tasty. Good sized portion. Burrito for main was huge!!! Too full for dessert but others tucked in. Very festive!
My husband and I came here for our anniversary lunch the other day (turns out it was the last day before they close until Jan). We ordered a bottle of wine and then decided we wanted to change it, no problem at all, the waiter was lovely and very helpful.
We opted for the small plates so that we could try a few bits and pieces... we got the mushroom quesadillas (very tasty), the tuna sashimi soft tacos (my favourite meal of the afternoon), pulled pork tacos (we ordered soft tortillas, i think it would have benefited from the hard taco as there was a severe lack of texture, it was a bit mushy), we also had the popeye empanadas (loved these but there was a lot of chilli in mine that I wasn't expecting as wasn't mentioned on the menu). Overall food was nice, I wouldn't say it's miles better than any other mexican I've been to.
The decor is very nice, however the music just didn't do anything for us.. it was a little too drum and base when you're expecting a little more La Bamba.
But good experience.
Food is not bad , small or big platters a bit overpriced though.
Staff was effective and sweet to us .
Not a place to bring a big family one will go broke :p other than that I've enjoyed it.
Date night @Perron Bryanston. It was our first time at the restaurant and we were blown away... The service was excellent (thanks Toby and Trust!)... We initially called to get an alternative number for the illovo branch but in the end we headed for bryanston. The trek was totally worth it. My husband had a beer (Naked Mexican) while I had a delicious mojito. We shared tostadas, sweetcorn fritters with sweet potato, and Chilli poppers and then had fish tacos. We finished of with the churros. Every single thing was delicious. We plan to go back for my husbands birthday in January.
Had lunch here a few weekends back and it was fabulous. Kept struggling to get a booking and eventually got one for a Sunday afternoon. To start off we ordered the Jalapeño poppers which were great. We then ordered 'the little ones' to share. I would definitely recommend the sweet potato on corn fritters. The fish taco and spicy chicken quesadillas were really good as well. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly and service was excellent.
We love mexican cuisine, and Perron is just about the best in the business!
The service is fantastic (we were served by Charl), and the food is quick and delicious.
Also got one of the tastiest margarita's in town. We'll be back!!!
The restaurant has been recently renovated and is a little smaller than what it was before. While it has lost a little bit of space it has made up for it with a much open and lit up space.
Food as usual is good, tried the fish and prawn tacos for mains, empanadas and corn salad as starters. For dessert tried the strawberry shortcake. Everything was delicious, fresh and plated wonderfully. Service was wonderful.
Definitely recommended place for fresh, good quality Mexican food.
Went for the all you can eat tacos on Wednesday,
The drinks presentation was phenomenal, but were rather expensive.
And the tacos were delicious, I just wish there was more meat and less slaw. The steak taco was my absolute favorite! Super delicious!
Overall a pricey but delicious meal.
Went to this place for the first time! I must say the food was amazing and so was the service. Atmosphere wasn’t that great, people were shouting on top of their voices, other than that, will recommend and if you like Mexican then this is very close to it. Plenty of drink options. Food portion was a bit small and a bit pricey though.
Awesome experience! Trust was a brilliant, attentive and very patient waiter! Loved the fact that I didn't have to improvise with vegan options, the menu had great vegan options and they were super delicious! And I mean, I am really fussy! I had the tofu as well as the cauliflower taco, super yummy! All the omnivores at the table were raving about their food, all the different tacos, nachos and a pork burrito were ordered and they loved everything! Now the dessert- best freaking vegan dessert I've ever had in my 5 years of being vegan. LOVED!! Oh and of course the cocktails are legendary! I'll keep driving 35min to relive that experience 💃🍷💖
Best nachos I've had thus far! I don't know what cheese they use, but it is delicious - and I am in love.
Interesting cocktails as well.
Would definitely recommend.
Good food. A bit lacking in spiciness. Pleasant atmosphere.
Had a great time at Perron. They have really good food and great service. Initially when we arrived they seemed to have lost our booking but this was sorted out quickly. They have a nice vibe and it was quite warm inside despite a cold and rainy night.
The selection of beer is a bit limited but they have good wines and a wide selection of cocktails and tequila.
They have great food although the options are more limited than other Mexican restaurants like La Rosa or Cafe Mexico. Food portions are much bigger though, and the suggestion of 2-3 plates per person could be a bit much.
Would definitely be back!
Visited tonight for dinner with my family. On Wednesday's you can indulge in an all-you-can-eat special for just under R200pp. The food is freshly prepared, authentic and presented well. Hamish was an attentive, informative and speedy waiter (thank you). One star lost for the coordinator of the restaurant who missed my online booking specification to be seated inside as, upon arrival, the table reserved was on the outside patio.
We booked for Sunday lunch and it was awesome! Started off with a Ginger Mule and I'm only sorry I didn't order the jug as they're so moreish! We share a bunch of the stRtes as well as the calamari tacos which were all divine and finished off with crispy fresh churros and the chocolate lava pot dessert which were both delicious. Service was fantastic throughout and the waitress was attentive without hovering. A great vibe and we're already planning our next visit
Lovely restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere. Good for groups or dinner with a friend. The hostess and wait staff are friendly and helpful and the menu allows you to build your own Mexican dining experience. A little pricy though - especially since they recommend 2-3 of the 'tapas' plates per person.
Great selection of food, beers and wine and some traditional Mexican desserts to keep you entertained.
Will definitely be going back in the future!
Best Mexican fare by far!!! Perron offers a superb, reasonably priced menu and their quality is the best I’ve had in Jhb to date! Brilliantly hospitable staff makes a visit to Perron all the better!
They have some amazing weekly specials which seem like brilliant value for money.
Will certainly be frequenting Perron as our favourite Mexican spot from here on out.
Indoor and outdoor seating. Good Mexican Food. Shelton our waiter was brilliant. A variety of cocktails served by the glass or jar. Quite a noisy restaurant as the tables are close together.
Lovely fresh Mexican food. Margaritas 🍹 were incredible! Have a fun taco time with family or friends here:)
Frozen margaritas machine wasn't working but we still enjoyed the shaken ones. Can get a little loud but it adds to the atmosphere. Service is standard.
Great Mexican food and vibe, my only complaint is that the margaritas lack enough tequila to call it a margarita, this is quite disappointing as it should be their signature drink. Service is excellent.
Tequila tasters... 'nuff said.
Well, not quite. That would undermine the fact that the food is an explosion of flavour, the jugs of frozen margarita with metal-straw-salt-rimmed tumblers hit the spot, and the vibrant staff glide past with a smile. Love this place!
