Such a shame this place is closing down. The best margaritas, wonderful food, not to mention our server who never has to write anything down and still always gets our orders right. Don’t know how he does it. We will miss you Pepe’s.

I haven’t tried the food because unfortunately my job ordered ground beef tacos and I’m not a fan of ground beef. HOWEVER they had salsas leftover that we could have and I could tell by the dark red salsa it was homemade and spicy so I brought it home and 10 out of 10! Will definitely come in for some tacos de asada after trying the salsa. The new owners I can tell have turned this place into authentic Mexican food. Good job guys ??

Get the steak sandwich which come on toasted bread with fries and it's delicious. This steak is the same as carne asada of which is half price as the carne asada dinner plate with beans and rice.
