Don Pepe Mexican Grill & Cantina

Definitely an amazing Mexican restaurant, one that was definitely needed in the pelion area. Would definitely recommend to anybody and will return soon! Some of the best Mexican food in the city in my opinion.

On the menu's Taco page, they have a new taco offering, Quesabirria. The pulled beef has been cooking in this incredible consume', which is also served on the side for dipping. The street-style tortillas are dipped in the broth and quick fried, searing in the flavor. Along with the consume', the tacos are served with slices of fresh lime. I am so proud of myself -- I remembered to get photos before I "dug in". Folks I've got to tell you, every bite was wonderful. The dishes at Don Pepe's are always hot and flavorful, but this dish is truly satisfying. I think it's going to be a new favorite.

We always enjoy a good meal at Don Pepe’s, but tonight’s experience was so incredible that it warranted a review. Our server, Andrea, was the BEST EVER. She elevated the entire experience with her sweet disposition and provided absolutely exemplary service. Love her and can’t wait to request her every time we visit. (Thank you, Andrea!!)

One of the worst places to eat Mexican food. Out server acted like it was an imposition to get what we needed, NOT friendly at all!!! The food was hot but is the only positive thing I can say about it. I asked for a cheese chili rellano, I got a beef and instead of it being being battered in it, it had like an egg pancake on top of it. Don't waste your time and definitely not your money!

I stumbled onto this place while in the area getting a house ready to list. Checked its reviews out and knew I needed to give it a try so stopped by for some lunch to-go. Had to bring hubby back and then we brought the kids on Friday. Absolutely delicious food and wonderful service every time, and the atmosphere inside is fun and cheerful with the green and other decor! The parking lot is almost always packed when we’ve been… definitely a popular place and it’s obvious why once you try it. One of our “local favorites” for Mexican cuisine. 😋
