" Pepe's is a delightful Mexican eatery filled with charm and authentic flavors. Each time I visit, I find something new to enjoy. Their special house-made salsa is a must. Although at times, service may lag a bit during rush hours, I try to be understanding as the food is genuinely worth the wait. A great option if you're in the mood for something flavorful! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The dinner buffet is a must-try. I went there for a family celebration and everyone left happy. The variety was outstanding, especially the homemade desserts! I appreciate how they prioritize authentic cookery, it really makes a difference in quality. Bring your appetite, and don't skip the flan for dessert. You'll thank me later! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how much we've loved Pepe's over the years. Their enchiladas are out of this world! The authenticity is what keeps us coming back; you can tell the recipes are passed down through generations. The salsa could use more spice, but apart from that, I've always had positive experiences here. A gem in Chicago Heights! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely family dinner here! We celebrated my daughter's birthday, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special with decorations and a complimentary dessert. The food was authentic, flavorful, and generous in portion. Our server was attentive, and she made sure our drinks were always filled. An overall wonderful experience. We will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Pepe's Mexican Restaurant, and I must say, it was a lovely experience. The ambience was warm and inviting, and the service was efficient. I ordered the enchiladas, which were rich in flavor and had a homemade feel. It's evident that they aim for authenticity in their dishes, and it shows. I can't wait to come back for their buffet!

" Needless to say, I won’t be returning to this restaurant. Our service was frightfully poor, and we were never served our drinks despite asking multiple times. When the food finally came, it lacked the kind of flavor I expected from a Mexican restaurant. I was really looking forward to the tacos but unfortunately, they turned out to be bland and uneventful. A big disappointment. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pepe's last weekend and had a mixed experience. The atmosphere was bright and colorful, which is a plus. Unfortunately, the food didn't meet my high hopes. The tacos were underwhelming and the quantity felt scarce for the price. Hopefully, my next experience will be more favorable as I like to support local businesses. " (*Curated Review*)
