Pepe's Mexican Restaurant - Goleta

They are so excited again! Eating is better than ever. they'll get the bean dip. acoustics of space needs some work, it is a little loud.

Disappointed, very disappointed. I really love this place, love eating, love the chili verdi bean dip, but the man was our service just terrible. we sat.

Time to update my review and welcome pepe’s! it's been about two years since they closed for a kitchen fire, and it's wonderful to see them open.

Just reopened and it's great!!! Service was on point. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. Lalo the manager made sure everyone in the restaurant was taken care of. I got the Frozen lime margarita and it was delicious. We also got the michelada with Negra Modelo and it was tasty. I got the veggie fajitas and I really appreciated that our server made sure to ask what kind of beans I wanted and informed me about the pinto beans being made with lard causing me to choose black beans instead. No one really asks so I appreciated her very much. My partner got the pobrecito burrito. It was a steak burrito. He said it was delicious. All in all. Great food, drinks and service. Go check them out. Happy to have them back up and running. Only request would be since they are not bringing back the buffet on Tuesday and Fridays is for them to maybe have an appetizer of the mini chimichangas that they use to have. They were yummy.

I found the place okay, but expect to pay at least $12.50 for just lunch. Two lunch plates cost more than $25.00. Will not be back anytime soon. Just too expensive for what my business partner and I were served.
