    Delicious grilled shrimp with kale tacos! The bar is very spacious and the restaurant is full of stimulation!

    Burrito Grande
    Aparajita S.

    I came here with a friend and really enjoyed the ambiance of this place! There's a good size parking lot outside with indoor and outdoor seating. We got seated pretty quickly on a Saturday night and ordered our meals quickly. I like that the menu was limited which made it easy to pick out my meal. I went with the burrito grande which was a fried buritto with chicken, beans, rice and veggies with three different sauces on top. We got our food pretty quickly and overall I liked the burrito! It didn't leave me feeling too full and liked how everything was well seasoned and liked the texture of the fried buritto which complemented the inside of it. Our server was super nice and can't wait to come back and try some of the tacos next time!

    Steak fajita

    Good was ok. Steak fajita did not have enough meat for the cost. It was barely a whole steak. Food was pretty good otherwise. Just not the best value for the money

    Calamari

    So this is kind of like a neighborhood bar situation. It's very close to where I have my stomping grounds at, so I've been there quite a few times. Depending on what day you go. It's a different experience but overall it's still pretty good. I will say that the day to go if you're hungry will be on a Tuesday because the Taco Tuesday special is pretty good. But just about everyday has something! Queso and chips - Now the queso they have. I probably wouldn't get again. Water down and runny so it's not like it's thick and cheesy and creamy when you dip the chip in. Charbroiled oysters - The oysters were more like Rockefeller oysters versus just having Char-Broiled oysters as if you were in New Orleans. Don't get me wrong, they were good. And for the price that you're paying for them at the happy hour, they are pretty solid! So I will say I would go back for these. Steak taco - the steak taco was pretty good. Squeeze a little bit of lime on there and it was a good Taco. Small but just enough. And for the Tuesday price, you can beat that. Chicken taco - The chicken taco is the same as the steak Taco above, really good price though. For the most part for this area. This Taco was a little bit more dry, but not to where you couldn't enjoy it. Again, squeeze a little bit of lime on there just to get an extra pop, and it's all good. Garlic parmesan wings - so the wings were actually pretty good. They came out hot and fresh from what it seemed like and they had a lot of meat on them. And the sauce was actually really good. Calamari - The calamar was pretty good. Only thing with the katamari is I feel like they put more peppers in there than they did actual calamari. Or at least it was too many peppers given how much calamari they gave. But flavor wise it was pretty good though. Dip trio - not sure if it's called that but at the same time, it's a basket of chips and then you get to try the salsa and the queso and the guacamole. You're going to run out of chips before you run out of dip most likely though, so that's not a bad problem to have! I'll probably still keep going to this spot. It's in a reasonable area, free parking, and overall the specials are really really good.

    Haven't been to Red Pepper in years!!! I will say the environment is still the same, relaxing and family oriented! The food seems to have improve, there's more flavors than I remember. The servers and staff are attentive, didn't expect that to change.

    It took a minute for someone to come to my table (this was around noon/one on a Monday) and there weren't many ppl in there. Wasn't a fan of the service at all. The happy hour deals were pretty good to me, but I didn't enjoy the oysters and the RPT happy hour wings, in which I ordered the honey hot flavor. They tasted like that chicken taste with a thin layer of honey on the wings and MAYBE ONE crushed pepper flake....just ONE though........they were terrible. I wouldn't even take them home and put them in the air fryer, no ma'am. The Monday Happy Hour Oysters I didn't enjoy, I ordered them chargrilled. I love chargrilled oysters! I tried to like them bc the price you can't beat, however I just really didn't enjoy the oysters from here. The RPT happy hour fries were okay, just a little too much of the queso for me. Let's get into what my stars are actually for and what I even came here for to begin with. I'm sorry it's not pictured bc I got it to go but the Quesabirria is all that! It's a birria quesadilla and I love it, I ordered it before so I decided to come in and get it but then I ran into these happy hour deals and I still wind up getting it to go LOL I'd come back during a different time and try some of the other items.

    I've been here a few times. Not to this exact location but it wasn't my first time. The food never really left a mark on me until today. I love tacos so I can be hard to please. Suggestions: Get the fish taco on a crunch shell and ask for a little more crema on the side for your rice and beans. Skip the carne asada taco I sat at the bar and the service was great and fast! They were playing multiple sporting events on the televisions so I can definitely see this being somewhere to enjoy a game. This is a casual place no need for your fancy pants but they do have a beautiful patio with a fire pit that could make it a cute little date night.

    Great drinks and food. Their birria tacos are amazingggg and their guacamole. Open late

    Nachos
    Kiah R.

    Service was EXTREMLEY SLOW after being seated here however, they had the music jamming so it was a nice distraction to realize the service got slow. The food comes out fast but the overall service was slow. The food was decent, they have plenty of TVs if you would like to watch sports. There is also a pretty nice patio Parking is free, the location is a little difficult to get to depending on which way you come from because you may have to do a u-turn into a street that is pretty busy.

    Chicken Quesadilla
    Crystal H.

    Pretty empty on a Monday afternoon. Plenty of TVs for game days. Takes a moment to get service once sat but once greeted she was great! I enjoyed the chicken quesadilla and my raspberry mojito. I was told the wings were also good.

    Alex H.

    This was my first time at this location and it was good as the playlist was fire lol. I really appreciate Darius as he had great customer service. He made sure we were good regularly and was very friendly, without being overbearing. I ordered the taco trio and a strawberry Hennessy margarita. I enjoyed both the Baja fish and carne asada tacos. The birria taco was good, but the meat could've been more seasoned. The drink was strong like I like it and was good. I really enjoyed my visit here.

    Fiesta salad with grilled chicken and balsamic dressing
    Leah K.

    Tied with superica for my favorite salad in Atlanta. Red pepper service is hit or miss at most locations (esp Brookhaven one), but we were quite pleased with service and atmosphere at the new dunwoody location. It's a great place to grab a casual bite and watch sports. I love this fiesta salad with balsamic while my husband enjoys it with the ranch. Other favs here: burger, crispy chicken sandwich, burrito. I also love their grilled veggies

    Fajita Bowl with Chicken.  Did love the veggies.
    Shanna H.

    Went here with a co-worker to kill time. Great atmosphere inside and out. We sat outside. I had a few drinks (Tito's Rita and Perfect Peach) off the margarita menu. The Tito's was good. The Peach was okay. We did end up ordering food. We did chips, queso, guacamole and salsa. All was good. I got the fajita bowl and my co-worker got the quesadilla. I added chicken to the fajita bowl which is veggie. The chicken pieces were big, I needed to used a knife. Also, the chicken was a little dry, but overall it was good. No complaints on the quesadilla. Would go back because It was a nice place to hangout. Also, the staff was really nice.

He also informed us that food was made from scratch and the ribs were already sold out! Bummer as that would've been a go to choice! The restaurant it self seemed cleaned and a sleek look to it. We chose 2 fried chicken meals and steak and frite. These dishes were to brag about 100%, wish I could've met the head chef and supervisor on shift to let them how wonderful the food was and that the staff have great personality and professional! This chicken meals were beyond what could've fool me as a homemade chicken made by someone's grandma! The steak was cooked to perfection that could've melted in your mouth. Due to my son's birthday, the server offered a complimentary dessert for him to have! I recommend this place or their other locations 10/10!
