Owned and operated by the Minjares family [since 1971], Pepitos serves authentic Mexican food the way Mama Lupe made it back in the day in her native Mexico. She would be proud of the restaurant today, with the ever-packed houses at the original Chicago Avenue location and another area Pepitos "Mexi-go deli." Both are casual and bustling, full of families and folks of all ages scarfing the chips and reasonably hot salsa. Tradition rules on the menu — tacos, enchiladas, burritos and tamales — and fresh ingredients are front and center in every dish.
Kids' menu. Full bar. Serving lunch and dinner daily.
"This longtime, family-run Mexican restaurant has been a favorite for its casual, bring-the-softball-team atmosphere, home-style cooking, and lengthy margarita list."
