Food was 10 out of 10. Flavor Bomb from Flavor Town! Holy Shyt! If you like tacos. Come here. Period!

Was scrolling on Yelp looking for a brunch place and saw a photo a breakfast cheeseburger at Salt & Pepper and made it my mission to try. The ironic part is that I ended up getting an omelet. Salt & Pepper is a small family run Mexican spot serving up delicious food all day long. Perfect for small groups that want to have some awesome bits after a long night out. Ended up getting Rancheros and various tacos. Everything was great. Staff is very attentive even when the takeout/delivery line is jumpin (busy). Next time I find myself in AC, I'm coming back. read more

A little hole in the wall kinda place! We were looking for a place to eat for breakfast and came across this little place. We were kinda skeptical to go in because we thought it was close, turned out the sign was just little. Came in greeted and sat immediately. We only saw two workers, the server/ cashier and cook. We ordered their coffee first (wanted hot chocolate but it was not available) we then ordered different ones. All were amazing and flavorful, they made everything fresh! They only have few tables so if you come in a group better to call ahead of time. Ohhh! Not forgetting the flan! It was firm and so good plus not that sweet! We will definitely be back!! read more

And there is parking across the street for 5 usd read more

I ordered the Breakfast burrito that normally comes with chorizo, scrambled eggs, black beans, onions & peppers, avocado. I ordered mine with only the black beans, chorizo and scrambled eggs. I ordered over the phone and had no issues. Found out breakfast is served all day (it was dinner time when I called). It was delivered hot and fresh. Super tasty. It had descent kick (nothing crazy but I'm more on the mild side when it comes to spice so thought I'd mention the heat). Friendly service. Fries were fresh, crispy and good. Not greasy at all. Can't wait to go back on our next visit. read more

Salt & Pepper is a cash only small restaurant located on Pacific which is just one block from the Boardwalk. Inside it's very plain with an ordering counter in front of the small kitchen with an adjacent small dining room. I think most of their patrons get their food to go. I visited for lunch last week and ordered a cubana torta with fries for $17. I added a Mexican coke to drink. If you dine in like I did they provide table service. The meal arrived in less than 15 minutes after ordering. My picture doesn't due justice to the size and thickness of the torta. It consisted of meat, lettuce, tomato, avocado and beans. This was a very good tasting and filling sandwich. Honestly, it was more than I could eat. Also the fries, were hot and seasoned and good. I enjoyed them too. This is a very simple restaurant that serves very good food at attractive prices. read more

Salt & Pepper is an authentic Mexican restaurant that opened in Atlantic City, New Jersey in March 2023. Crafted with the freshest ingredients, the menu consists of classic Mexican dishes such as enchiladas, tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos, mojarra frita, bistek, tortas and chilaquiles. The menu also features classic American dishes such as burgers, wings, cheesesteaks, and fries. There is even a full breakfast menu with items such as omelets, egg sandwiches, breakfast burritos, pancakes, and egg dishes that have a Mexican twist. Salt & Pepper is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and it is CASH ONLY. My family and I visited Salt & Pepper this past summer while we were on a road trip. We were looking for a good place to grab lunch near the boardwalk one day, and Salt & Pepper came highly recommended on Yelp. At face value, the restaurant seems like a hole-in-the-wall and the neighborhood is a little rough around the edges. Don't be turned away by this. The place is indeed tiny inside. Upon entering, you will immediately see the kitchen with three or so people working their butts off. There is an adjoining dining room with a limited amount of tables. Fortunately, we were able to secure a table right away. Most of the patrons seemed to be of Mexican descent, which is always a good sign. My older son and I ordered and shared the "Nachos Mixtos" (mixture of beef, chicken and chorizo) while my wife had the "Chorizo Tacos". To drink, we ordered a couple of Jarritos sodas. This food was excellent!!! Everything tasted so fresh, the balance of the spices was perfect, and the garnishes were a nice touch. The food had that sort of homemade vibe to it and the staff were very friendly and attentive. If you're looking for excellent Mexican cuisine in Atlantic City then look no further than Salt & Pepper! read more

My husband and I are always in search for an authentic tacos and this place nailed it. It's a small family owned place along pacific Ave. although pacific isn't my favorite, this place is worth it!! The establishment is clean and well maintained with several small tables inside. The owner quickly greeted us and sat us with menus. The smells coming from the kitchen, which is right at the entrance were incredible. I'm didn't see shrimp tacos on the menu but when I asked if they could make them, the owner generously obliged. The fresh tortillas and shrimp were wonderful. So much flavor!! They don't sell beer inside but I was told we could bring some beers from the corner store if we wanted. I really enjoyed this place and the service we received. I will definitely be comping back. read more

Salt & Pepper may not look like much on the outside, but the inside is filled with warmth, flavor, and smiles. I ordered an horchata along with the ranchero eggs and a side of nopales -- everything was wonderful, exactly what my tummy needed!

I came during lunchtime come in was the only person eating in; a few others came in for pickup. The Atlantic City boardwalk sure is deserted this time of year.. Service was fast and friendly. The seating area is very basic, with metal tables.. They only take cash and Zelle. My nachos were huge but I just didn't dig them as much as others I have had. The fresh avocado was great. They charge $2 for a cheap plastic bottle of water. read more

As a tourist here for a convention, I was rather surprised at the lack of food options in this city. After suffering through Hard Rock's crappy buffet and restaurant options, needing something delicious and fresh was a MUST. Well, I found this little hole in the wall place, and surely glad I did. It's very unassuming, run by two people hustling their butts off to bring out quality food. Went with the Birria tacos, they were juicy and delicious. Made quickly with excellent presentation. Salsas were also tangy and added nice contrast. Consume was meaty and warm. Will definitely be back if I'm ever in town. Love supporting a small business in this tough area read more

On the door it says that they only accept cash and venmo. But they actually accept cards now too. So don't let the fact that you may not have some cash on you stop you from eating there. The tacos were delicious and the service was excellent. Everything looked clean and it's air conditioned. There is a sitting area or you could take out to go. read more

This is a small hole in the wall restaurant located behind the boardwalk and well worth the walk from the casinos. Small family owned Mexican restaurant opened 2 years ago everything is homemade . I went for a late breakfast and the service was warm and welcoming. The space is small maybe 5 tables . I ordered the Rancheros eggs- 2 eggs over fried tortillas and topped withMexican Salsa. Underneath were homefries. Amazing the tortillas were perfectly crisp and the over easy egg paired well as did the salsa with a hint of heat. The side of bacon was eh read more

A hole in the wall that you should visit if you can if you're in the area. Breakfast seems to be the specialty with some dinner plates as well. Place was full of locals and working type getting a cheap filling and great meal. Omelets, egg dishes, salads were all great. The only remark is that there is one cook that I saw so there could be a wait. We waited for 2 tables to get their food first -- maybe 25 min. But worth the wait. Very friendly staff. Parking is probably street on a side street or local lot -- they do not have a parking lot. We walked from our airbnb so not an issue. Also about 2 blocks away from boardwalk read more
