Pedro's is the ultimate in beach food - tasty, casual and inexpensive. Swing through the drive-thru on your way to the beach and pick up some fish tacos and quesadillas. Where else can you feed a family of four for under $20 and be happy with the food?

Great taquitos with tons of guacamole. Cheese quesadilla good too. Fried Chicken taco. My daughter gets the bean and cheese burrito with potato or the Steak Burrito with cheese. Get the Horchata Rice Drink.

Everyone around south Orange County seems to "love" Pedro's. I do not understand this at all. The burritos are decent sized (one of their specialties), but the cheese is NEVER melted, always at one end of the burrito (along with whatever else you added to it). The ingredients are stacked - not layered. How hard is it to make a... More

My husband grew up in San Clemente and remembered Pedros and Surfing Donuts as gems. They didn't dissapoint. I had a breakfast burrito, a bean burrito and the fish tacos (over the course of three days) at Pedro's and loved it all! The portions are huge.

Been coming here for years. Quick good food. On a busy loud street. We're always just driving through. NO BATHROOMS that's a bummer. Funny they say world beat tacos but they give you Heinz packages taco sauce. But we will go there. Enjoy.

If you grew up in San Clemente you went to Pedro's at one point or the other. It's a drive through Mexican food place that must have been a Pup n' Taco restaurant at one point. It's more of a local landmark the kids and surfers frequent. The taquitos tasted liked boxed ones from the frozen food aisle at the... More

The burritos Carne Asada has the best grilled meat, you get a good portion at a great price. Love their beans too. Fish taco's are very good. Always a quick, fast and easy to order experience. The best Mexican food take out in S.C.!
