Sad to see such a long time restaurant like Pepe's decline in the quality of food served. Prices have skyrocketed but the food quality have taken a nosedive. Been coming to this Telegraph location for years and started to notice after the passing of the founder, which a picture of (I presume) was taped onto the front windows honoring him a few years ago that a sort of restructuring was taking place. First I noticed they seemed to have a problem with the type of food containers because they originally started with styrofoam plates covered with a clear plastic top then about 3 years ago changed to a smaller one piece hinged styrofoam container, and now they're back to the original. Also the staff seems to be changing all the time except for one familiar cook who's been there for quite a while and does a good job btw. That's when I noticed that the hard shell tacos seemed a bit smaller and they had cut back on the bounty of cheese and lettuce/tomato added on top of the tacos. Then on anot

Best and fullest burritos in town! Everyone needs to give this place a try. I’ve been coming here for years and it has never failed me. Their burritos are as heavy as my chihuahua!

15-20 min drive thru line is worth the wait. Delicious food & they're not stingy with their guacamole. I recommend the taquitos special or the 2 hard shell taco combo plate with rice & beans.
