The salsa tastes homemade but had an off taste like it was missing something. Co worker ordered the chicken fajitas and I got the kids flautas. The food came out hot. My kids flautas came with a side of beans and rice. My rice was a bit hard and over cooked and minimal flavor. The beans also did not have very good flavor. This place felt more like a chain restaurant than just a local place.

I had the Picadillo and Eggs and this was great - well spiced ground beef with a side of eggs, this arrived with potatoes and tortillas. It was a nice protein-forward meal and a more unique breakfast option, which I appreciated. The space is no-frills and a bit rustic, but they offer good food at very reasonable prices.

HAIR IN OUR FOOD As a Yelp Elite Member, I take my reviews…read moreseriously and always aim to be fair. I don't like giving bad reviews, but this experience left me disgusted and disappointed. The food was good, and everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. We even packed up leftovers to take home. But just as we were finishing, my grandson's mother noticed a thick, coarse hair on his plate. Finding a hair in food is always stomach-turning, but discovering it after I had already eaten made it worse. It made me wonder: What else did I miss? I showed the hair to our server, who immediately removed the plate--and to be fair, I could tell the hair wasn't from her. The issue was how management handled it: a 10% discount and zero real concern. No apology from a manager, no real effort to make it right--just a small discount and moving on. That response left a bad taste in my mouth. Had it not been for the hair, I would have rated this place 4 stars. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was casual, and the food was enjoyable. But the way this was handled knocked my rating down to 2 stars. We were so put off that, even though our leftovers were packed and ready to go, we left them behind. I debated between 1 and 2 stars but settled on 2 because the food itself was good. That said, this experience made it impossible to recommend this place.

I ordered the combo plate with a taco, relleno, and enchilada. The taco was decent and the enchilada had a dark rich flavor. I didn't care for the batter around the relleno, but the pepper itself was really good. The green chili that smothered the relleno was a thick sauce. It was really flavorful. Hubby had the beef flautas. I wish I had read the reviews first, because everyone said they were dry, and that was spot on. The tortilla was crispy, but I think you loose a lot of the beef tenderness when you fry them when the meat is already well done. The beans and rice were good.

The interior is surprisingly large with a spacious dining room to the right, more seating near the bar, and even an outdoor space that had live music when we went. Spicy Beef Nachos Appetizer: Chips topped with queso, green onions, jalapeños, black olives, tomatoes, guacamole, and sour cream. My friend got this and I had a couple bites. Chips were not soggy and it was large enough to cover as his dinner. Green Chile Burger: Topped with monterey jack cheese and roasted chopped Chaves County-grown hot green chile. Served on a jalapeño bun with a side of our hot green chile sauce. Their signature burger and it tasted good. I don't need too much food but the amount of fries I got was too little even for me. Got two Johnny Walker Blacks with a splash of coke and they came well mixed and quickly. We did end up getting rained in and hilariously went back for a second dinner to wait out the rain. Black corn taquitos were OK, I would not get the fried shrimp basked again, the shrimp was too small and there was too much breading.

The hostess (whose name I forget) went out of her way to take special care of our huge group of 10 people who dropped in on her on a busy night. Our server Heather was a total rock star! She had never heard of Pink Floyd (heresy!) but treated us like royalty. All in all I would have to believe that Peppers treats every single customer like this - and highly recommend a stop.

A little bit less common yet, we find restaurants that provide this space over a long period of time. Martin's Capitol Cafe would be such. We ordered a tamale, carne adovada and a chimichanga. The chimichanga wasn't deep fried but pan fried, which was not common and already a red flag. We got our food and it was just OK. The chips and salsa were good, but the food was OK. My portion was also small, and the rice was a bit dry. Maybe we ordered wrong... The restaurant is also a bit well worn. It adds charm but I think charm that is not backed up with good food is like a band-aid over a bleeding wound.

Restaurant is located in an old Burger King which is a great use of an empty building. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. We were told to pick our seat and were attended to promptly. While looking around, it appeared that locals dine here. We ordered breakfast and lunch. Foodie number two ordered the Breakfast Tacos plate (egg, potato, and bacon on flour tortillas). Also, we ordered two Gorditas (1- tripas and 1-shredded beef). We washed it down with Mexican Coke Cola (made with real sugar NOT corn syrup). Our food was served hot and fresh. As always, we encourage you to stop by Taqueria Jalisco to give it a try for yourself.
