This was very disappointing. Food was poorly presented and tasted very ordinary. Will not be returning. Service was ok.

As far as Mexican food goes, Pepe's at Jindalee are really quite decent. I use the word decent because any food place (in general) that has the 'kids eat free' attached to it is alright with me. Pepe's has it on Monday nights - woohoo. Even though a nuggets and chips will set you back $7 here, it's still awesome they get it free, and a drink with it double woohoo and crayons and colouring paper triple woohoo (that will definetely keep the suckers busy for at least 30 minutes so I can eat). It's a pretty decent sized meal, they season their medium sized chips with some sort of peri peri non spicy seasoning and the nuggets are biggish too as nuggets go, but they taste kind of processed from a box is all. I had the Taquito's (arriba arrrrriiiiba) in the entree size which was $12.50 (bit expensive as it's just 2 deep fried soft taco sized shells rolled up with chicken in them on a bed of cheese, lettuce and 2 dips (french onion, warm 5/5 lick the bowl clean and a salsa 3/5 bit watery lots left over). I also had the chicken and avocado salad, it was in a pretty big bowl, with lots of seasoned chicken on it, the chicken was really yummy! The salad was too, but it was $18 so a little expensive as well. For the 1 kids meal, 1 adults meal, an entree and 2 drinks it came to just under $50 (not a Monday where kids eat free, a Tuesday). It's hot, it's Mexican, the ingredients are really fresh, you have to try it despite the price. read more

I have taken SO MANY people to Pepe's over the last year or so. Best Mexican food in the area, you NEED to try the Queso! read more

Pepe's has an awesome Tuesday night special - a HUGE burito or enchilada with rice and a Corona for $15. In contrast to places that do tiny serves of substandard Mexican food on a Tuesday night (who hasn't been disappointed with a $2 Taco?), this is actually well worth leaving the house for on a weeknight. It is usually a struggle to finish everything on the plate but it is just too tasty to leave a morsel behind! It can get pretty busy but the food still always manages to come out in record time. read more

My husband, 2 sons and I just ate at Pepe's Mexican Restaurant at Jindalee. In my son's taco salad there was a CATERPILLAR/SLUG thing. When I brought this to the attention of staff the owner/chef said (via the wait staff) "these things happen" and still proceeded to charge us. The chef/owner would not even come out to the counter to apologise in person. Instead the poor girl who waited on us was sent to pass on the message. She was most embarrassed and visibly distressed by the episode. In hindsight I wish I had taken a photo on my phone to post but I wasn't intending on making a big deal about it. I just quietly went up and mentioned it to staff. I did not expect the reaction I received. So now I do want to make a big deal about it. The meal cost us $90+ and we didn't have any alcohol. The meals were okayish (before we realised they came complete with slugs). They were very slow and brought the kids meals out well after ours. read more

Initially I was reluctant to try out this Mexican restaurant in Jindalee for two main reasons; 1. I've had plenty of bad Mexican food in the past and 2. It's based in a suburban neighbourhood. I am quite choosey when it comes to Mexican restaurants and the fact that this was located in the suburbs made me think it was of lower standard to those based in the inner city areas. I couldn't have been more wrong! The food, quality and service were brilliant. From the moment we walked in the staff were friendly and helpful. They went through the menus with us and made some recommendations. The food we order most of the time is the 'Chimichanga' and their 'Enchilada'. If you bring children here and they are not yet fans of Mexican cuisine, they do serve kid-friendly meals like 'Hot Dogs' and 'Chicken Nuggets & Chips' It's best to take advantage of their daily deals on offer. For example, Monday nights, kids eat and drink free. There is a deal from Monday to Friday which is perfect for treating the family to after work. read more

Pepe's Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Jindalee, QLD

Food was good. I ate 'til I felt sick and had to lay down, then I still kept eating. Had the nachos. They tasted a bit like they'd been sitting around a while, they should definitely leave some of the juices in the shredded beef - it seems as though they cook them to dry - needs to be more juicy. But soggy or dry - it's good food. Was a few issues with how slow the service was, but they made up for it with free drinks for the trouble. read more

Pepe's Mexican Restaurant - Deconstructed nachos. So good. So damn goooood. - Mexican Near Me - Jindalee, QLD

The chimichanga was awesome. I couldve drank many more than 2 frozen margaritas, but had to leave room for freaking awesome chocolate nachos. The ambience was great, the staff were great. Food was awesome, so impromptu invite to family during dinner and they managed to be seated. Will be coming back again and again read more

Really excellent Mexican food, good sized servings, a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. We had a voucher from one of the deal sites so don't know what the normal pricing is like. Will definitely be back again to check it out though! read more

Pepe's is very close to my heart because it's where my Mum and Dad used to go on dates when they were around my age (so as far as I'm concerned it's been around since the dawn of time). I can't really see the romance in eating a messy taco and the aftermath of consuming lots of beans, but hey! Each to their own! I have indulged in Pepe's countless times and really haven't found another Mexican joint with the same amount of rustic charm. There's nothing pretentious about Pepe's. It's good honest food at reasonable prices. And the portions are very generous! I usually order a chicken enchilada with rice and beans, and it's just enough food to roll myself out in a happy eating frenzy. When I'm feeling a bit festive I like to push my luck on the frozen margarita front too. If you love Mexican food and are finding that there's something missing at these ritzy, clean places you find in the inner suburbs than I suggest you march out of your house, grab your sombrero and give Pepe's at Jindalee a go! read more

Terrible food, terrible service! The only thing I can't complain about is the speed in which our order was taken & the food arrived, which was fantastic as we couldn't wait to get out of there. The food was tiny in portion (fajitas for two that was only sufficient for one), there was no sauce of any description on the meat, which was tough & the entire dish was devoid of flavour. I've honestly made better Mexican at home, even and Ol' el paso packet mix would have been an improvement. The jug of sangria contains barely two and a half drinks despite being the price of four drinks! Will not be back, to this or any other Pepe's. read more

We loved Pepe's last time we came, however - they have now changed their recipes, particularly they're Mexican Rice & Burrito filling. We came as a family of 4, one of our daughters got a kids schnitzel meal (which was the only one that was fine). Our waitress took our starters incorrectly and tried to tell us that we ordered a basket of wedges and also a basket of chips to share between 4 people!! (These quantities were enough fill 4 people for a dinner meal). Who would order that much for starters? We had to refuse one. The waitress decided she wanted to argue with me about it. The Mexican music was so loud, no-one could hear us anyway!! Our other daughter asked for melted cheese inside only, but was presented with cold cheese all over the top. My husband (from California) who knows authentic Mexican said it tasted like Cafe style Tex-Mex and not restaurant quality, as it used to be. My meal was an absolute disaster, having just had a bone marrow transplant (with a sensitive mouth) - I asked a lot of questions, about what was in the meal. I told the same waitress, I just wanted chicken and cheese inside a Burrito, with rice and refried beans on the side. Instead I got a burrito filled with chicken/cheese and burning chilli sauce, the rice was red hot chilli rice, topped with lettuce/onions and cold shredded cheese. Then topped with hot, hot tomato sauce. I took one mouthful and my mouth burned for the next 20 minutes. All I asked for was plain tortilla, chicken & cheese inside with (real) Mexican rice (not burning rice - N.B. try GYG for real Mexican rice) and refried beans. I did not ask for: cold shredded cheese, lettuce, onions, chilli rice or chilli chicken. No where in your menu is it ever mentioned how hot/spicy your meals are, Pepe's? Why not? When our waitress came back to ask us if everything was OK? And we all said a resounding 'no' she wanted to argue with us and told us also that the 'tomato sauce' that was caked all over it was also 'hot/spicy' and that I should have known this. What waitress argues with her customers? Sorry, Pepe's - never returning. An $85- waste of money!! read more

Pepes is a nice quaint little mexican restaurant in the burbs. Well prepared food in a timely manner. Service was ok. Is my mexican restaurant of choice. 3 stars read more

Really yummy ...nice mexican and a beer was really enjoyable. ..really friendly staff was a good night

Haven't been there in years. But the quality of food has dropped off. Especially the rice, it's similar to Montezuma's and that is very poor. The service was poor. Didn't take order correctly and started a small argument with my wife about how she asked how meal was to be made, and they didn't do as they were told. Waitress was rude. Won't be back anytime soon. read more

This is the first time I've ever written a review on a restaurant but I feel so adamant about telling people to AVOID PEPE'S. I've been a loyal Pepe's customer for years. However on my last visit, my sister got her usual chicken & avocado salad and we saw it had been downsized into a cereal sized bowl... It was seriously the size of a side salad. And it was $15. I asked the waitress very nicely if this was now the new size or something temporary, and she was so passive aggressive. She completely shrugged it off and said she didn't realise that it had changed size, etc. To top it off, my burrito was supposed to come out with a side of beans + rice and all it came out with was a side of microwavable rice and it was $22?!!? After coming to Pepe's for years, I can safely say that after this experience, I will never be back. Do yourself a favour & go to Dos Amigos at Taringa instead. read more
