The New Mexican food was really good but what stood out was our waitress Hilda. She knew it was our first time there & brought out little samples. She was so genuine, not just nice when it was time to pay hoping for a good tip. All in all a great place to eat. Nothing fancy just good food & excellent service. Just a good vibe from everyone working there! read more

We always look forward to coming back! Thank you for taking such great care of us for so many years! read more

It's in the end cap of a run down strip mall in Canutillo. What better place hide a treasure? In this case, the recipes of the legendary Griggs family that kept El Pasoans, Las Crucens, and all parts in between so well fed for nearly 100 years. Griggs food, and sister La Posta in Mesilla, always had their own spin on New Mexican food, and we are lucky a nugget of it still exists. Thanks, Peppe's! Gourmet Mexican Food, indeed. read more

Peppe and Lorena are lovely hosts, as are all their servers. The service is always good, as is the food. They have stayed true to the original Grigg's recipes. I am waiting for their innovative food invention of the Mexican Eggroll! read more

Great Family owned place, Authentic Texmex well portioned. Service excellent at affordable prices.

The food is delicious and the service is excellent! I had the famous rolled tacos, and they were perfectly crisp and savory. The chips and salsa were also super tasty. The 4 star review is because of the ambiance. This is a legit hole-in-the-wall. It kind of feels like a grandmother's house mixed with an old multipurpose community room. Decor is odd, but completely worth it for the food and service! read more

Great New Mexican style food from the former employees of Grigg's famous restaurant. Love everything on the menu, Especially the side dishes (slaw, beans). Fair prices for good food, go! read more

After a doctor appointment at the University Medical Center, we went to Peppe's in Cantutillo for lunch. My wife had the three-taco plate (ground beef) with rice and beans, and I had the ground beef/carne asada burrito covered in queso. Everything was very good. Our waitress was the daughter of the owners, and she was very attentive to any needs of the customers. Nice atmosphere. read more

Excellent service and employees very personable. Food fresh and sabroso! Not crowded. Owner made rounds to make sure everything OK. Take cash with you to avoid credit card surcharge. Recommend highly. read more

A trip to El Paso, Texas is not complete until we stop by and see our friends (who treat us more like family) and have an amazing Mexican meal! Thank you again Peppe' and family!

Food is EXEMPLARY! Service lately (last few months) has been terrible. Waited an hour for a to go order. Young woman waitress got the order wrong. Ended up with missing items and not what was ordered and combined items in 1 plate that were for multiple people. Hopefully they will find better help soon! read more

I'm very disappointed! It used to be to be my "Got to" place for my tamales. But the quality has gone down, from the taste, to the size of the tamales. The price has increased which I understand but to pay for poor quality and size is not worth the wait in line. read more

Another celebration for the books! Friendly efficient service as always! Great fresh food and margaritas as every other visit! read more

If you know, you know. If not, you are missing out. I grew up eating at Grigg's, and Peppe's is just a scaled down version, with many of the same menu items and the chips and salsa that I was raised on. Every time I am in town, I have to visit at least once. read more

Peppe's was recommended by our realtor right after we moved to El Paso as one of the best Mexican restaurants. Since then we've been eaten here several times. Every time we came here we enjoyed our meal with very good service. I wouldn't call this a fancy place. It's easily missed if you are paying attention driving down on Doniphan. Interior deco is sort of funky. There is a collection of organs (musical instrument) in the back room. Other displayed items seem to be personal in nature. Serving portion is not too big, but it's adequately satisfying. So, the price is very reasonable. You'll enjoy eating here. If you don't live on the west-side, it'll be a little trek to Peppe's. read more

Peppe's Restaurant - Caldillo--great soup!! - Mexican Near Me - Canutillo, Texas

Peppe's is a hole-in-the-wall little eatery just hidden inside a strip mall just off of Doniphan Dr. The food is very good with a notable speciality, a wonderful staff and reasonable prices. My son and I walked in around 7pm to get an evening meal. The restaurant was full, and the two dining rooms were buzzing. Several large tables had big family gatherings with obvious good cheer going on. We got a small table quickly and were served chips and salsa . We ordered a super nacho appetizer with half ground beef and half chicken meat on it. It was excellent, loaded with cheese , refried beans jalepeno peppers and meat. For an entree I ordered a combo #3 which included a chili Relleno, enchilada and rolled taco, along with rice , beans and shredded beef chili. The meal was good and had huge portions. The real highlight was the buttery and delicious chili relleno. My son ordered the 3 chili rellenos meal and he likewise had a great experience. The portions were large and we both left full and happy. The enchilada, rolled taco and other items were good, though not amazing. Their signature item was definitely the wonderful chili relleno! If you love them, this is a good place to check out. The staff was so nice and helpful with was a delight to dine in at Peppe's. read more

Absolutely love this place the food is amazing everything is homemade which you don't find anymore, the staff is extremely friendly and love to make conversation they really make you feel at home. I added this place to my favorites list and I hope on my next journey through El Paso I can stop again and enjoy more amazing food and hospitality! read more

This place came highly recommended by a staff member at the El Paso Chihuahuas game that I attended back in late August. I gotta say, their service is impeccable, and the server had me try their sauces before I ordered since it was my first time there. He was very helpful in explaining New Mexican cuisine compared to traditional Mexican fare. Their QUESO is the best I've ever had in my life! So that's what I got, a pollo asada burrito with said queso sauce. Phenomenal! When I return to the ELP area, I will be back! read more

Very fast service, especially for a quick weekday lunch break! Rosie was our waitress and greeted us with a smile. Our chips and salsa came right as we were seated and our drink order was taken promptly. Our food came out in just a few minutes and it was delicious. I like the combination plates and the ICX grinder. The slaw and desserts are good too. read more

A friendly, family-staffed, unassuming place in a strip mall. Heavily visited by local families, with social distancing. I judge Mexican food by the basics (beans and rice) as well as the main dish. In all aspects Peppe's was exceptional. I can't tell you the last time I was served frijoles de olla, snd they were tasty without being over spiced. The combo I had demonstrated the cook's skills and the sopaipillas were the cripiest I've had. I cannot say enough about Pepp's and will make another trip out to Canutillo to eat there. read more

Peppe's has AIWAYS been good. Everything on the menu is hot. Tastes authentic and the service very good. Everyone very friendly. The chile con queso delicious. read more

They server New Mexico style food, which is very good. Note this is not Mexican food therefore is not spicy. Nevertheless it is very good food and very good service. Has noce decoration read more

This place is amazing. The owner brought us out sample sauces so we could see which dishes we would like. It is small and has a family atmosphere as the owner and his family greets you and waits on you. The food comes out quick and is flavored great. It is a New Mexican style restaurant which is milder food, but the food is still flavored superb. If you are driving near El Paso, you need to try this place. Do not be deterred by it being in a strip mall. The place is nice, clean, and very pleasant. read more

This is a great casual restraunt with friendly staff and supperb N.M. style food. One of our favourite spots.

Hospitality and customer service is amazing here . The food is very delicious and hits the spot .

My family who is much older than I have been coming here for years. They say the place is different, updated, new tile floors, different servers, but the food is just the same. The rolled tacos (flautas) are crisp and crunch just right then melt in your mouth. The picadillo soup is a true classic with green chile, beef cubes, and potato. The salsa is served in little jars for you to pour out at your leisure and the chips are thick and crunchy. Don't forget about dessert either, they now have mini sopapillas which are light, fluffy, and super cute! My family was right this hole in the wall place was worth a visit. read more

This was a such a nice restaurant. Very fresh & good food and friendly staff. I was so pleased to find a homey, tasty restaurant available during these covid-19 times. read more

Authentic New Mexico Mexican food recipes that have been passed down for generations. Family owned and operated makes this restaurant a joy to dine in. You must start with chili con queso served with steamed corn tortillas or an order of the bean cheese and jalapeño nachos. The Croom special will have your taste buds dancing all around the different flavors of this combination plate. read more

The manager Yolanda was so amazing !! Sweet amazing the food was amazing ! She gave us samples before trying anything of the saucy everything was homemade !! It was just asking all around read more

The place isn't anything special to look at - it's in an older building, not much in the way of signage, unless you're looking for it you would drive right by without a second thought. Inside you'll find a very clean, but basic, restaurant. The service and food make this place stand out - walk in and you're greeted immediately by several people, including the owner if he's there. If you miss Griggs - you will love this place. It's owned by one of the chefs from Griggs, with many of the same dishes. Swing by and bring an appetite. read more

The food is always good, and the service is prompt and always very friendly. The decor leaves a considerable bit to be.desired, but money is probably a major issue. read more
