" We recently had lunch at Pelon's and while it was mostly a positive experience, the wait time for our food was longer than expected. We placed an order for tacos and burritos, and the flavors were fresh and vibrant. However, patience was required as we waited nearly 40 minutes. I get it; good food takes time, but it would be nice to have some communication about the wait. Once the food had arrived, we were happy with the flavors, especially the shrimp tacos! Will likely return but hope to see faster service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Pelon’s probably five times now and have yet to have a bad experience. The burritos are huge; I always need a doggy bag! Tacos are a must-try and their chips and queso are delightful. This place is vibrant and airy, making it a perfect lunch spot. The only downside is the price can add up quickly, especially if you're ordering a drink too. But the quality generally makes it worthwhile! Plus, the staff here are always happy to help you navigate through their menu, especially if you're looking for vegan options. Always an enjoyable meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made my way to Pelon’s based on the overwhelming positive reviews! The buzz was tangible when we walked in, and the staff greeted us with smiles. The ordering process was simple, and my tacos came out quickly. Everything tasted fresh but I thought the dishes lacked a bit of seasoning. The vibe of the place is fantastic with colorful art on the walls. I would consider returning for lunch or a casual dinner, just hoping for a bit more flavor next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been going to Pelon's since they opened and I can't get enough of their fish tacos! They remind me of the beaches in California where I grew up. The atmosphere is always laid back and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to relax. Whether it's with friends or solo, the vibe is just right. Service has always been friendly, and the staff remembers my order, which is a nice touch. I also love the fresh guacamole they serve; it's chunky and packed with flavor. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in Virginia Beach! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place with a fun atmosphere. The staff were energetic and helpful when I asked about dish recommendations. I had the chicken burrito and thought it was good, though could have used a bit more seasoning. The refreshments were on point, and the horchata was especially delicious! The prices are reasonable for the size of portions provided. I’m looking forward to going back again soon to try their fish tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Pelon's Baja Grill are something special! The fish tacos were crispy and the salsa had a nice kick that went perfectly with the dish. I felt the size of the tacos was good but certainly left me wanting more. The atmosphere puts you in a relaxed mood, and the service was on point. I especially appreciated how the staff continually checked in to ensure we were happy. It's a fun place to eat, and I can't wait to return to try out the other items on their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me start by saying that the first bite of their fish tacos almost had me in tears—so good! Not only is the food outstanding, but the staff truly made us feel at home. The vibrant decor and beachy theme matched perfectly with the menu's flavors. I particularly enjoyed the guacamole, which had just the right amount of spice. I ordered a margarita that complemented my meal perfectly. The prices are on the higher end, but you will not be disappointed! I plan to visit again before summer is over! " (*Curated Review*)
