" If you enjoy a vibrant atmosphere and delicious margaritas, you’ll love Pepitos! The decor is lively and sets a great tone for the evening. I tried the fajitas for two, and they were sizzling and packed with flavor. The portion was generous, easily enough to share. Service was friendly and prompt. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fabulous meal at Pepitos! The variety of dishes made it hard to choose, but I ultimately went with the carnitas - delicious! Fresh, flavorful, and felt authentic to me. The service was efficient and friendly. I appreciate that they use quality ingredients. Will gladly return to try their other menu items next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I attended Pepitos with some friends for a Friday night dinner and the atmosphere was perfect for a night out. The colors and decor truly made me feel like I was dining in Mexico! Each of us ordered different items, and the consensus was that the tacos were the highlight of the meal. They were bursting with flavor, and I loved how the handmade tortillas had a slightly chewy texture that paired perfectly with the fillings. Our waiter was extremely attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Very nice experience overall. The margaritas were wonderful and the food was fresh. The atmosphere felt lively, especially in the evenings. I enjoyed the enchiladas, which were generously portioned and flavorful. The staff was friendly and ensured we were well taken care of. I have no complaints and look forward to returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Pepitos while on a visit to Riverside and enjoyed my time here. The service was friendly, and our drinks came out quickly. I had the tacos, which were delicious, though I found them a bit on the spicy side. The restaurant's atmosphere was lively with ambient music playing, which added to the experience. Overall, I would recommend Pepitos to those looking for tasty Mexican dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I liked the idea of Pepitos, but unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to what I hoped for. The tacos were underwhelming and didn’t have that homemade feel. The service was friendly but a little slow, especially when the restaurant was busy. It’s a nice place to socialize, but if you’re looking for robust flavors, you might need to look elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" The location is easy to get to and has adequate parking, which is a plus. The vibe when you walk in is lively, and the staff was quick to greet us. I had the fish tacos which were fantastic - fresh fish and the unique salsa was the highlight. The portion size was just right for me. I enjoyed the overall experience and would recommend it to anyone looking for casual dining with a fun twist. " (*Curated Review*)
