EDITED 2/10/2020 – Had to update our review here from 5 down to 3 stars. I am not sure what is going on at this restaurant but things have definitely changed. Each time we go in now there is always a new waitress in training or they are just unfamiliar with how things work there. They turnaround of waitresses is quite obvious. Due to this they don’t always get your order right anymore and they don’t know how to make any of the drinks on the drink menu. The waitresses now will literally tell you they don’t know how to make a drink, ask you how to make it, tell you they are out of something to make it and sometimes even guess or substitute an ingredient (like when my Mai Tai came to the table red because they used cranberry instead of grape fruit juice). This weekend we went in and all the drink menus were off the tables and the waitress told us there was no drink menu. We told her that we have been coming here for years and always order off of it and she was like well nope we don’t have one. Very strange. My husband ordered a drink that was normally off the drink menu thinking they should be able to make it and she had to look it up on her cell phone and still made it wrong. Also I ordered a margarita and they were out of all the flavors except regular which is crazy seeing they are known for their margaritas. We also came in with a birthday coupon and normally they would give us dessert on the house when they see it but they didn’t acknowledge it this time other then the waitress telling us her birthday is coming up soon too. Not sure what is happening here but it is rather sad because we loved going here.

I haven’t been here in years. It was great then and it was great tonight. The food was hot seasoned perfectly. They gave us a complimentary imported bottle of sparkling juice and even sent me home with a delicious dessert for my birthday! Thank you for a great meal and such pleasant staff.

Ordered dinner tonight from here 3/24/20. We ordered the family meal for 20.00 bucks totally worth it. 10 tacos, rice, beans, salsa, chips, it was more then enough. They are also delivering at this time due to what’s going on in the world right now. We had our food delivered within 15mins of our order. Every thing was really good!

Been going to this location a long time. The service is always great. The waitress knew when to leave us alone, but did not ignore us. Food came fast and was excellent as usual. Prices are fair, and they have a fully stocked bar. Love this Pepe’s.

They make very nice drinks at this location and are willing to accommodate to your preference of alcohol. The food is decent if you like the Pepes taste. I enjoy the nachos and the veggie burrito, but the tacos are soooo good as well. Reasonable prices for the food, and the portions are not bad for the prices either. The staff is always friendly and I always end up over-tipping because of their service. Everyone should try this location.

If you dine at the restaurant it’s usually a quiet atmosphere. Nice for a first date. Ordering to go may be a different experience. You’ll get a real fast food experience which is prepared the food. kind of sloppy.

They tried to charge 18$$$ for a regular dinner to go. This is unacceptable and pathetic. This place will close down soon. They already charge $20 for regular free chips and salsa if you get it to go. It’s actually beyond pathetic and the owner i think is nothing more than a highway robber bc the quality of the food is barely beyond fast food. I think the owner is steeped in illusion.
