Incredibly bland. The chips and salsa are awful. Cold dry chips from a bag. The salsa is canned diced tomatoes with a few onions added. The tacos are no better. The tortillas for the tacos come right out of a plastic bag, skipping the griddle completely. The carne aside was heavily seasoned with grocery store taco seasoning packets, then drenched in another bland sauce. This has to be the worst "taqueria" I've ever been to.

Took more than 45 min to get the most basic food and we were with hungry kids. Such horrible service, definitely don’t go there if you’re hungry.

Excellent “crummy” tacos! I’m a picky eater and the cook gave me exactly what I hoped for! My husband had the fajitas and said it was the perfect amount of food and the price was great! This will be our new go-to!

I picked this place because of the best reviews in town and them saying they use good quality food. 6 of ordered all sorts of food almost all of which was disappointing. First of all, there is no “peppers“ it’s part of Pete’s and peters sports bar, and you have to walk all the way through the bar to the end to put in an order and the girl will bring it out to you. We ordered two chicken noodle soups, which I could not eat because it was pure salt and room temperature. The tostada was mushy. The nachos barely had any meat on them. The cot said the burrito was the cheapest quality meat ever. The only good thing was the cheeseburger and tater tots. And the Carnitas burrito was OK , don’t fall for the high reviews!

🌮 A Flavorful Fiesta🌮 🌶️Peppers🌶️ Mexican Restaurant Review 🇲🇽 Step into a culinary fiesta at Peppers Mexican Restaurant, nestled behind Pete and Peter’s in Tahoe City, where every bite is a celebration of authentic flavors and exceptional service. From the moment you enter, the aroma of expertly seasoned Asada tacos tantalizes your senses, promising a culinary journey like no other. The succulent meat, delicately placed on soft and fluffy tortillas, transports you to the heart of Mexico with each savory bite. The simplicity of onion and cilantro perfectly complements the robust flavors, showcasing a masterful balance of ingredients. 🔥🌶️ But what truly sets Peppers apart is the unparalleled hospitality embodied by their vibrant attendant, Catalina. With a smile as warm as the Californi
