This was the first time I ever stopped here and I don't leave reviews of places, but this was a wonderful place. I was greeted very enthusiastically and had items recommended to me. The meat was flavorful and the cherry burrito was fresh and very gold. Definitely would go back. Also the prices were very fair!

My FAVORITE local taco place in Bryan/College Station. In business since 1969. I drive from Houston to get my 3 crispy tacos with extra beef with light lettuce. What makes it so special? The seasoned ground beef and hot sauce. A MUST TRY!

I adore Pepe's!!!! The staff is very friendly and the food is always super fresh because it's made to order. It's a great place to stop in for a quick meal. This independently owned and operated restaurant is a favorite with our family.

We’ve been coming to Pepe’s Mexican Cafe for decades, and it still delivers every time. In a fast-changing B/CS community, this longtime staple has weathered the growth and transformation while staying true to what makes it great. It’s not new or fancy, but it’s consistently good, affordable, and dependable. Plus its a locally owned small business, employing our neighbors, keep your dollars local.

Been going here for years. Had some issues with my last few orders but the owner called me personally and made it right. They got one of the better vegetarian tacos in town and it's always nice to know their beans are vegetarian too.

I recently visited Pepe's for the first time in 40 years. After seeing Pepe's campaign asking folks to support our local businesses including Pepe's our group of four stopped in for a late lunch on a Saturday. They are in the same location and building. Nothing fancy. The building is colorful and the dining room is not huge. We enjoyed the corner booth by the window. Two of us ordered the beef enchilada dinner and two ordered burritos. Everyone was surprised at how delicious the food was. The dinners were large enough for two meals. Seriously, the food was delicious.
