    Horrible! I placed a carry out order. Got home & discovered that my order was NOT what I'd asked for. When I called the restaurant, I was told I could come back for my slices of tomato (which should have been added to begin with). Huh? So I asked for them to be remade correctly & was then told that I'd be charged again! Why? This is an inconvenience to ME! Not to mention, there was very little meat on one of them... smh. And I tipped them $2 on top of the 43¢ fee I was charged for using my card! And guess what? There are NO REFUNDS! I. WILL. NOT. BE. BACK! Very dissatisfied customer!

    The waiter there named Randall he is very respectful, polite, works real hard at his job. He cares for his customers and makes sure they get what they need. Keep up the Good Work!! Your doing A great Job!!!

    SCAM ALERT! Zero stars! Margaritas half off on Monday's... except the ones I was drinking!! Jokes on you Pepes! Maybe update your menu - Cadillac Margs not half off or tell your male waiter to stop charging extra. Also, tables were dirty, and no one picks up the phone! I'll take my business somewhere else! C ya!

    ZERO STARS! It went DOWNHILL! I used to be a loyal patron there, now I will never go back there again!I was going to meet five of my friends at Chicago Ridge Pepe’s Taco I could only sit by one table because the other ones were dirty per the manager. Then they turn on the radio or TV in the kitchen and talk show on TV in the dining area both loud. It was very frustrating and I was unable to concentrate. I asked the manager to turn off the TV or the radio and explained why. The manager get red in the face and yelled at me not to tell him what to do I left and called my friends. I will never go back there again!!!Unbelievable!!!

    Anytime I have a taste for steak and shrimp, I come here and have the combo fajitas. OMG, the shrimp and steak are always juicey & cooked to perfection. Absolutely delicious. I also order a raspberry margarita that is always balanced; never too sweet. I can always look forward to a wonderful dinner at this Pepe's. Oh, did I mention that the service is also friendly and of 5 star quality? Can't say enough good things about this restaurant.

    We dined on a Sunday evening. The place wasn't very busy and it looked very clean. There seemed to be only one server and she was polite and friendly. She took our order and the food came out promptly. Overall, the food was good. Our biggest complaint is that the steak was not seasoned properly. My wife had steak tacos and I had a steak burrito. The meat in both dishes was soft and tender but had no flavor. Our kids each had something different and were pleased with their meals. I guess just avoid the steak. And I don't know what this check out fee is but I've never been charged that at any other Pepe's. They apparently have different prices if you pay cash. Pretty sure we won't go back.

    This place is terrible. I would give it a zero. Could not even place a to go order. Was placed on hold for over 5 minutes. Heard the girl waiting on everyone except me. Tried calling back 8 times. Either busy or no answer. Not a way to run a business.

    This is a very good Pepe's. I have been to some other locations in the past that are forgettable however this restaurant is not one of those. The food is fresh and tasty, the servers are attentive and the overall experience is good. Their steak tacos are very good as well.

    The best one around by far, amazing food and the waitress we had was very nice. We order takeout from here all the time because of the great service and food. We'll definitely be back!

    The food was good I ordered the enchiladas they just needed a little more sauce but the flavor was good. The customer service was friendly. I’ll go back to try other type of food and their drinks.

  • 5/5 Caroline G. 1 year ago on Google
    Been coming to this location for years! We love their chips and salsa, everything is always great!

  • 1/5 Wesley C. 1 year ago on Google
    First off I paid 14 dollars for a steak burrito with cilantro and cheese and the burrito was the size of a taco. I am very disappointed with the product that they gave me on a take out order. I advise you all to check your food before you leave because the signs at the restaurant strictly say no exchanges or refunds. I will never go back to that restaurant again. Wesley Cottrell

    Cool retro, dine in environment, the servers are really nice, and you'll fall in love with the food. It's always on point.

    I wouldn’t eat at this one again. The waitress tried to serve us bad salsa and then tried to play it off by saying “This is a salsa we only have at this location”. It was clearly off, it smelled like vinegar, the tomatoes were like a maroon-dark red vs a brighter red, and there were bubbles on top. That stuff was clearly fermenting.

  • 3/5 jimmy b. 1 year ago on Google
    Usually a good spot but past two Saturday I call multiple times to place an order and no one picks up.

    Everyone seemed to be happy to see customers again. Food is good, if not surprising. Enjoyed eating alone and texting.

  • 1/5 Anthony C. 2 years ago on Google
    Horrible food dry and no flavor at all. Place is old and outdated. Food was cooked in a microwave. Terrible experience. Will not go back there again

  • 5/5 Terita S. 2 years ago on Google
    The person who took my order was very personable. The order came quickly and was very tasty. I will continue to visit this Pepes going forward.

    The food was great. Horchata tasted authentic! The only concern is they're not set up to take Groupons they offer unless they're printed out. The staff was very helpful.
