" Had a great experience at Pepe's last night! I had the fish tacos, and they were fresh and flavorful, unlike some other places I've visited. The ambiance brought a vibrant feel to our family outing, and the service was attentive and friendly without being overbearing. I appreciate that the management is clearly making an effort to maintain quality in both food and service. I will definitely return for another bite of those tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pepe's has been a staple in this town for as long as I can remember. I recently visited with my friends again and found it pretty average. The food, while decent, was lacking that authentic zing. The enchiladas were good, but nothing that stood out as spectacular. I really enjoyed the chips and salsa, though. The service was friendly but took longer than expected, and our waitstaff seemed switched to other tables often. Still, I'd probably give it another try, so long as my expectations are low. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pepe’s was recommended by a friend, and it didn’t disappoint! The chicken enchiladas were bursting with flavor, and the accompanying rice complemented perfectly. I loved the ambiance; it felt very homey and warm. The staff was friendly and attentive, constantly checking to make sure we were happy. I honestly think I found my new favorite Mexican restaurant! I’m really excited to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pepe's with my family last week, and while we were initially hopeful, the experience didn’t live up to our expectations. The chips and salsa were decent, but that was the highlight of the evening. My husband ordered the steak fajitas, and they were bland and overcooked. I went for the chicken sizzling platter, which was a mix of chicken with greasy vegetables. On the other hand, the staff was friendly and tried their best to turn our experience around, but it just didn’t work out. I don’t think we’ll return in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an interesting visit to Pepe's the other day. Our server was polite, but the food was lacking in every aspect. My chicken burrito was unseasoned and very bland, and my partner wasn't thrilled with his shrimp enchiladas either. The chips were decent, but that was our only saving grace. The atmosphere was vibrant, but sadly, it didn't compensate for the uninspired dishes served. I won't be coming back unless they step up their game. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had dinner at Pepe's and was seriously impressed. The grilled shrimp tacos were fresh and well-seasoned. The chips were warm and tasted great with their spicy salsa. The atmosphere was energetic with friendly chatter and laughter. Service ran smoothly; my drinks were always topped off, and the waitstaff was attentive. Overall, I would definitely recommend Pepe's to anyone looking for good Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family decided to visit Pepe's after hearing good things about them. However, the reality did not match the hype. I ordered the tacos, and they came out underwhelming and very bland. I could barely taste any spices or authentic ingredients. The chips and salsa at least lived up to expectations as they were delicious. On the service front, while our server was nice, they were obviously overwhelmed, which made our meal less enjoyable. I may be inclined to look for better options next time. " (*Curated Review*)
