    Erika S.

    Queso birria tacos, rice, beans consome
    Foodfanatic W.

    We were craving some queso birria tacos so we came to check them out. My kids and I all ordered the two tacos with rice and beans for $12.99. Tacos and consume were very tasty, rice very fluffy. We dined in and was served complimentary chips and salsa. For the price and taste we would definitely come back. It is a very casual little spot. The service was also very hospitable! The sweet young lady made us feel so welcomed. A plus; the kids loved the food.

    Excited and over joyed about flavors!!

    We ate here on a whim while in the area. What stood out is how hospitable the owner is. We ordered to go and ended up eating there. The owner didn't mind and brought out chips and salsa... then offered us water too. We didn't expect the hospitable accommodations as it was closer to closing time and I dislike being the person who keeps a restaurant open longer than closing hours. Owner didn't mind and told us, "if you want to call an order and it's close to closing time. Still call me. I'll stay open for you, no problem." The Gordita was 4.99$ and BF ordered 2 tacos. It was a great meal and the owner left a lasting impression for us. Please continue to come and support Pepa's!

    chips and salsa
    Christina F.

    We enjoyed Juan's friendly service. Good portion on our asada fries. Restaurant vibes, surprised with the complimentary chips and salsa.

    Menu

    Pros: Good service. Good food. Prices were fair for food and quantity. Food came out at a decent pace. Decent size dinning room. Has specials for days of the week. Cons: Cash preferred, as using card comes with a fee but not that bad.

    Ground beef burrito supreme -yum
    Young B.

    Our first time coming here are we are blown away! To go order of green Chile verde wet burrito and ground beef burrito supreme. I was pleasantly surprised to find that my supreme burrito had been pan seared. They forgot my sour cream but it was so good I didn't mind. We'll definitely be back. One of the best Mexican places ever!

    Chicken Fajitas, Rice, and Beans
    Jordan E.

    Was out and about shopping and notice the sign said "Taqueria". I love Mexican food so I decided to stop by and see what they had to offer. I ordered the chicken fajitas with flour tortillas. My meal came with chips and 2 different types of salsa which were BOTH very delicious. The chicken fajitas came out piping hot with rice and beans as well. Very tasty! I definitely will be back.

    Carnitas nachos
    Noemi R.

    I've been eyeing this spot for a while and I'm so glad we finally checked it out! This is hidden in the shopping center off of Cedar and Herndon next to R&N market. We unanimously voted that this is our new Mexican spot! They have a great variety from mariscos to tamales. We ordered tacos, carnitas tacos, asada fries, and green chile asada burrito. They stacked on and layered well the toppings on the fries and nachos. The burrito had great flavor! My kids loved the tacos! We were so pleased with our food and service, that we will happily be coming back.

    Poor ownership!
    Augie R.

    The owner should be ashamed! We waited til 4 and Noone came to the door. We called and Noone answered. The food is ok but not worth the drive over here only to be greeted with this crap! I won't be back. This is horrible. Post your right hours! Be prompt! In this competitive market it's real easy to go out of business being stupid like this.

    This place is officially bookmarked for every future drive through Fresno!…read more The lengua and chicharrón tacos were honestly some of the best I've ever had. I also sampled the carnitas on top of crispy taco shells as well. The meat was incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the tortillas came out hot, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Every bite reminded me why simple food done right is hard to beat. I was hoping to try the mojara frita, menudo, and barbacoa, only to find out the menudo and barbacoa are weekend only specialties. Needless to say, I was pretty disappointed, but it also gives me a great reason to come back. What really stood out, beyond the food, was the hospitality. David, who appears to have been running the place for over 20 years, was incredibly charismatic and provided the kind of customer service that seems harder and harder to find these days. You can tell he genuinely cares about both the restaurant and the people who walk through the door. One of my favorite parts of the visit was when I saw the owner come out and greet the regulars and customers. The interactions felt sincere and heartfelt, not forced. There was a real sense of community here, as if customers weren't just patrons but part of an extended family. That kind of atmosphere is special and says a lot about the people behind the business. Great food, warm hospitality, and a welcoming environment--I'll definitely be back, hopefully on a weekend next time.

    I don't think I've ever felt betrayed by Yelp reviews...until now…read more During a recent road trip we stopped here to picked up some lunch/dinner because tacos are quick and easy and their Yelp rating is high. Location/services: Upon entering the building I immediately noticed the heat. It was a hot 98 degree day and the restaurant felt like an oven and was maybe 3-5 degree cooler than it was outside. I then quickly noticed this was a very simple operation (almost like a food truck), and not much to the menu, but there were folks sitting and eating and a few others waiting to order, so I assumed the food must be great. We ordered 4 meals (tacos with rice/beans) which was meant to be eaten there but after waiting in line and feeling like we were in a hot box, we decided to make it to go. We sat and waited for our food (about 20 mins), we chatted and observed our surroundings and it became very apparent the restaurant was not maintained with basic cleaning because it was very grimy and just plain dirty. I then used the restroom and it was absolutely disgusting. Our ordered was called and the staff was very nice. The food: As I mentioned, we got 4 orders of tacos (all carne asada) with rice/beans, and we asked for salsa and limes. We got grilled jalapenos, lemons and one sandwhich baggy filled with red salsa. Not a big deal. The meat was fine but the tortillas were inedible. They were tough, flavorless, and greasy. The bean and rice were ok. We ate enough to curb our hunger but none of us finish our food. Upon my best judgement, I had convinced myself that the food was gonna be great because their Yelp rating told me so. I was so wrong! One last note, there was nothing here that resembled a bakery/panaderia. So if you think you could also grab a treat here, you are wrong.

    What a cute couple shop hidden inside back of a market. Look for Peacock. Walk all the way to the…read moreend and make a left to the back. Miguel sells his auntenthic mexican food and Lisa sells her favorite sweet treats. By far on the market, they sell pretty bomb salsa! It's not like the generic salsa from store bought one, it's just like the unique homemade family recipes. And trust me, these are not as supper vinegary. I love Miguel's salsa! Miguel's message was to serve his community and bring his tradition to the table. He brought the flavors of Michoacan and Jalisco Mexico which were passed down from the Segura family. SERVICE :: I love Miguel's service! He personally serves you and greet you there. He offered me free chips and salsa while i wait. They were quiet busy but get things done quickly too. RATE : 5/5 SALSAS & CHIPS - COMPLIMENTARY:: His salsas and chips were the best thing I've ever recieved. He serves his famous red and green salsa with a little bit of ground beef on top. They go so well together. RATE : 5/5 RED SALSA :: It's hard to describe it here but it's roasty burnt salsa full of flavors. Not too vinegary. You just got to try it in person. RATE : 5/5 GREEN SALSA :: I personally love the green sauce more, in general. And still Miguel's green salsa still beats the red salsa. I can taste all of the greens and fruit in it. It may be advertised mild but the heat is there. It's about almost the same spice level as the red salsa. RATE : 5/5 ASADA TACO ($3.49) :: Besides his salsa, his tacos were amazing too. It's well seasoned, unique, and full of flavor. The asada is something that I've never tasted before. It's very herby, well seasoned to taste, juicy and tender! RATE : 5/5 TACOS DORADOS ($4.49) :: The tacos dorados were something different from what I've had before and were absolutely delicious. This taco reminds me of birria. The texture and flavor were also amazing. I asked for pork, it was supper moist, tender and juicy full of flavors. The cotija cheese brings a nice dry and light cheesy taste to it. And lastly, those pickled jalapeno just give a pop of juicy, sour, and spicy flavor. RATE : 5/5 PISTACHIO CREAMES ICED MATCHA (16oz - 6.49) :: Lisa use Tenzo brand. I've used and tried Tenzo before and it's hard to ratio the matcha. Over portion Tenzo match will be too bitter and too little too diluted. And yes, Lisa's Matcha was on the diluted side. The pistachio flavoring is light and taste artificial. The sweetness level is perfectly sweetend. Not too sweet. RATE : 2/5 NOTE : Spend anything above $50, get a $5 dollar off voucher for the next purchase. OVERALL :: Overall, it's a hidden gem that's definitely worth checking out! Don't forget his salsas, he do sell them on the side. I'll definitely go back for more and try his other menu!

    Fantastic find while in town for a sports tournament!…read more My family and I were in town for a sports tournament, looked up highly-recommended Mexican spots on Yelp, and Miguel's popped up. When we arrived, we discovered it is actually located inside a Mexican market, which is always a great sign for authentic food! We ordered three super burritos, drinks, and an order of chips and guacamole. We dined inside their nicely renovated dining area while we waited. The food was absolutely fantastic--the super burritos were massive and made with high-quality ingredients, and the guacamole was phenomenal. The staff and cooks were incredibly nice, attentive, and welcoming. We left completely full and made sure to thank them for the superb food. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town for a tournament. Thank you to the staff for a job well done!
