bartender was not very informative when asked about the wine selection. i asked what brand of prosecco they have and Debra said "i don't know," then after asking again she said, "it starts with a C." when i finally made a decision with the little information i was given, my glass of wine arrived with a strand of hair on the rim. *update: a fly landed in my glass and Debra was a lot nicer and made it right! good job, Debra! read more

Pepper's and one other dining place are your only options for food in the Midland International Airport. Given how busy the airport can be with the prolific oilfield being situated in Midland/Odessa, you can imagine how busy it can get here. I understand it's busy but every time I've been here the guy at the bar that handles drinks and food orders is always super short with people and rude. When I was giving my food order he curtly cut me off and asked for my name. No sense of urgency at all here every time I visit. Prices are reasonable for food but my bottle of water was $6.99. Geez. The chicken taco salad I ordered was actually pretty decent. It was simple but the chicken was seasoned well and there were plenty of greens. For the price, it's ok. It was priced like regular airport food, I would be upset. The music being played here is insanely loud. It is being played through a portable speaker and they play it loud enough to hear throughout the restaurant and then some. If you are seated by it, don't expect to have a conversation. If you're in a hurry, I would not risk getting a drink or food here but if you have plenty of time before your flight, it's not a bad place to drink and eat. Edit: This place is a joke. My flight was delayed significantly so I was issued a meal voucher at around 6:00PM. Looking at their website and other sources, I verified that they close at 7:30PM. I went over and they were closed. What restaurant at an airport closes an hour and a half before their posted time and at 6:00PM? read more

See all

They advertise that they close at 7:30 and did last call at 6:30. They seem to only want to leave because they have to clean up the tables rather than stay open. read more

Pepper's Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

Place is absolute trash. They have signs everywhere that say to order at the bar and scan menu here at the tables. Stood at the bar for 15 minutes as the bartender with the limp walked by me atleast 10 times without acknowledgment. Finally just points at me with a disgusted face, told him I wanted the nachos with chicken and before I could even finish my sentence he said we aren't serving food and just stared at me. Almost everybody on the restaurant was eating food including the people at the bar that I was standing next to. Could tell he just didn't want to serve me cause he was busy. Dude needs to head to McDonald's if he can't handle the pace of a sit down restaurant. Do not go here read more

Went to the midland airport location before a flight today and the guy bartending was very rude acted like it was a blessing for him to serve us. He was looking at the screen back toward the bar talking and expected us to hear him. Along with his gestures and snapping at us to give him the card! Looking back at other reviews this is an ongoing issue with him that corporate needs to correct! Topping it off with a mandatory tip! Wth read more

ANOTHER AIRPORT NACHO REVIEW "Umm, excuse me, waiter? I think you dropped some toppings on this plate of chips!" Chips are the base of a good nacho, but the ones I was served today were thin and crispy- fine on their own, but not muscular enough to build a #perfectnacho. For my protein I opted for the steak, but I may of well have chosen ground beef or chicken because the steak didn't really taste like anything. My nachos were not prepared in a kitchen as much as they were an assembly line in a bar hidden behind a partition. The whole place had a weird vibe- when I arrived to the restaurant and ordered the loudspeaker was playing "Stan" (sad) and when my food was served I was listening to "My Humps" (horny). They opted for liquid-y nacho cheese which was fine, but of course melted fresh-grated cheese would be preferred. My final straw- and to me this is really just an appalling laziness- my sour cream was served not as a scoop on top nor a side vessel but rather in the form of a single-serving squeeze packet that you tear open like ketchup. I mean, tell me you're eating airport nachos without telling me you're eating airport nachos, geez... read more

AVOID the steak here!!! *** Horrible cubed rubber. The queso is okay so go that direction if your starving at the Midland airport. Only getting 2 stars because the cashier was very polite, even though there was nothing she could do to refund so picked the SUPER-NASTY cubes off & ate a few chips. read more

Pepper's Mexican Grill - GROSS Steak Nachos with queso. AVOID the steak unless you like rubber - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

Really busy on a holiday weekend Thursday afternoon. Self serve. Go to the counter and order food. Pick up drinks and food. View of the lower floor of the airport and the TSA line. TV's have sports on. read more

The chips are not like a regular Mexican restaurant tortilla chips. I'd pass. The quesadillas were decent. Picante sauce for salsa.

Being that this is one of 2 places in this airport your choices are limited. Staff is always running thin. The waitress looked less than thrilled to be there. I'm almost positive that their salsa is Pace Picante. But their guacamole is pretty good. I've not had anything other than those 2 items. Somewhat pricey but that comes with Airport food, service and prices. read more

This is the best place in west Texas ! At first I was greeted by lily and Maria and they prepared me some fresh food ! Taste was great and service was on point. If I could go to the airport without a flight ticket just to eat I would be here weekly read more

Wow. Trapped so we had to go here. Horrible service. Including a nice threat from the manager. The server she was volunteered she was gay... which what does that have to do with anything. Subpar service go to the other bar at the airport read more

You don't usually expect to find a really good meal at an airport eatery. Pepper's Mexican Grill, located at Midland International Airport, is a rare exception. The burritos were piping hot, very flavorful and well-constructed. My companion's salad was fresh, a smidgen watery, but with flavorful chicken -- made better with the addition of their salsa (added upon request). The house margaritas were ice cold and flavorful. Can I use flavorful in a sentence again? Just seems appropriate in what are usually bland airport restaurants. Service was above average and the staff was friendly. If you have a layover at MAF, give it a try. read more

Not recommended! Opens at 11am. Server when asked for a tea sad it will take 30min? When asked for menu she said wont serve for to 11:30 or 12? I asked which was it she said 11:30 or 12? Huh. I asked what determined time they would serve she replied the cook gets there at 11 at its just whenever she was ready? What ? The place was filling up for lunch and she had the same repose ? She also gave the answer with a real attitude. I know it's in the airport but just go get some peanuts ! My second time to visit now the new start time is 12:00 because employee is late? read more

DONT DO IT!!!!! Eat somewhere else! It's the staff. 100% awful. The bartender took my order, brought my drink and never returned with my food. 30 min later when others, who arrived after me, got there food, I asked for my server. She never came. I asked again. She never came. Now I have to board my flight and those people are already leaving. I don't get to eat dinner at this point. You'd think an apology or even so humility would be appropriate. Not these girls. Even an old lady behind the counter just refused to acknowledge me. I finally said "I would like to pay for my drink, but I will need a check right now." They laughed, rolled their eyes, and almost brought me to tears. Horrible people. Only because there is one restaurant in the entire airport, do people end up here. Stop outside of the restaurant and get food. Go to one of the fast food places in the airport. But don't go here. I give a year, based on the reviews and set-up. I imagine they will convert to another similar restaurant soon. Th read more

Excellent customer service. Clean restaurant. Super fast. Large selection of beverages and good food. Hot all the way through and fresh pico de gallo. read more

So so sad because this place could Do a TON of business but it's AWFUL. Multiple tables need bussing... the beer isn't very cold... just terrible. It's like people are trying to give them money and they just won't take it. Staff clearly does NOT enjoy their jobs.!! read more

I've been here several times and this is by far the best service that I have received. Yvette was very attentive and I received my food quickly. If you have time to kill before your flight, this is definitely a consideration! read more

This is a wonderful place to eat when you are at the airport! Lilly is an awesome cook, food is always delicious! Yvette took my drink order and the beer is nice and cold, service was prompt!!! Will definitely eat there again! read more

While waiting for my flight we decided to grab a bite to eat and something to drink. Much to our dismay we had to go to the bar to order, while others around us were getting service. When the food came out they yelled my name instead of bringing it to the table like they had to the couple next to us. The house margarita we had was just lime juice and triple sec and not even a hint of tequila. The soup came out lukewarm; the cheese wasn't even melted. The chips were so salty they were hard to eat alone. Next time you are flying from Midland grab food before you get to the airport. read more

Horrible food. How do you screw up a chicken Cesar salad even at the airport. Beer was good service was ok. Do not eat here unless your starving as it's not worth the money or stomach troubles read more

Super friendly! Great Service! Especially from Shardae! Fast and professional! Love relaxing here before a flight!

Great service. Sharde is amazing and beautiful. Will definitely come back here. The employees have great attitudes.

Yikes ! Where do I begin??? The food is awful, I cannot believe how folks out here can be fooled that this is a Mexican grill! The guacamole is artificial, I seen it all in "American Mexican" Restaurant but this is the far worst! read more

We are from Ohio and bought a home in Gainesville, florida for the Winter months. Pass Pepper's restaurant all the time and thought we would stop and try it. What a mistake!!!!! Couldn't get waited on, asked for water 3 times until another person came over to help us. The kid that was supposedly our server was to busy on his cell phone. When we finally did get our food another person had to bring it to us, the kid was in the back playing with his cell phone, we could see him from our table. The food was horrible, How can you screw up a fajita? Steak was so tough you couldn't chew it. Just all around horrible experience. We will never go to a Pepper's again. read more

yvette and yessi (spell Check) were the two girls taking care of my husband and I. Our flight was delayed so in a small airport what else was there to do except drink?! They were very helpful, they knew their drinks and weren't afraid to give honest opinions on what to do when we visit midland again. 10/10 would come back JUST to drink/eat quesadillas and enjoy the company of the sweet girls at peppers. read more
