The chicken chorizo chimichanga was very big, filled with cheese, with a crispy outside. The only downside to my visit was having to wait for the waiter to come to take our order. We were seated near the back, and we felt forgotten about. One of us had to walk to the front to kindly ask for someone to take our orders. However, the staff were very kind :)

I was like yeah me too, excited to try it out. My husband drove by the other day and noticed it. So good! We got a variety of tacos and corn on Doritos which was kind of tasty and kind of messy. I can't wait to try dining in and get it super fresh. With delivery the cheese between tortilla layers got a little tough, even with dipping the consume. We asked for cilantro and onion mix on the side which they accommodated perfectly (not pictured). All of it was delicious and fresh - can't wait to try more.

Located on the ground floor of a newer, retirement condo, Pepe & Lela's does have an outdoor patio…read more(sides on busy Appleby Line) and 2 separate seating areas. Initially, I thought the restaurant was quite small, but when I went to the washroom, I noticed another dining room. Arriving shortly after they opened for their dinner service, I was standing for quite some time at the "Wait To Be Seated" sign. There was no bell, no way to make contact with the hostess. I did make eye contact with a male server, but I think he was the bartender and that servers are the ones who seat patrons. I want to say that I was waiting for about 10mins. Enough to take a bunch of pics of their front entrance! The first dining room is quite an odd shape with a HUGE round column cum circular bench where plants are displayed in the middle. Menu was pretty succinct, there were specials, but no burritos, enchiladas, or even fajitas. They do serve Mexican cocktails like margaritas and have seasonal flavours such as strawberries, peach, etc. Brooklyn, female server was friendly. Here are the pros/cons of Pepe & Lela's: CONS - hostess table is separated by a long hall from dining room, so it may take some time to get seated as hostess/servers don't regularly check when patrons enter / difficult to see when customers arrive - quite pricey, about a few dollars more than an authentic and local (to me) Mexican place - limited menu, see above description/pics - despite higher prices, tacos don't come with any sides like refried beans, rice, &/or small salad - lotsa wasted garnishes/sauces left on Mexican corn plate PROS - menu does focus on local, seasonal ingredients, so it does taste SUPER FRESH - you can tell their Margaritas were fresh and not from some mix - sauces were really good and plating was good - tasted authentic Food was delicious and FRESH, although I found the meat on my cochinita pibil underseasoned, lacked salt although other seasoning were on-point. My main gripe is that you're paying a few extra dollars for quality - fine, but tacos don't come with any sides like rice, beans, &/or a salad like other, less expensive Mexican restaurants. Average price is ~$25/2 tacos. You're certainly NOT going to be hungry after eating the 2 tacos, but I find that pricey with no sides! Overall, I think it's a good option for a celebration, but a bit pricey for just a regular night out.

The food was just ok. $7 for a taco is pretty steep and they were unique, but honestly kind of bland. I also thought the dips (guac, queso and salsa) were bland too. Probably wouldn't go back just because I've had some pretty amazing tacos and these aren't anywhere close to what I am used to.

The food is absolutely delicious, very friendly staff and the portions are a good amount of food. Personally, I ordered the Birria tacos. There is so much flavor in the food here, as I tried a little bit from everyone's order. I HAD TO !! For dessert, I had their tres leches cake. It was delicious and after eating it, I even ordered an entire tres leches cake for the weekend (they require a 2-day preorder for cakes).

My dh got the special of the day Soicy Beef Mexican penne and cheese skillet and it was pretty good but the garlic toast was not very good. i ordered the burrito bowl with 6 good sized shrimps.It was good and very filling. Couldn't finish it all. The service was very slow and quite honestly not acceptable. We waited a while until we were asked what we would like to drink. Our server finally came to get our order for appetizers and we were ready to order our mains but she didn't even bother asking us. While waiting for the drinks and food to come, a couple of men arrived after us and they quickly got their drinks and even their appetizer before we got our appetizer. That's not very nice. Then our server decided to go to a table of four who all paid for their own meals separately and stood around for another seven minutes after then until she finally came to take our food order. The food server who came with our main meal was pleasant and didn't keep us waiting though which was nice. The first server came by with our meal but stood over us hovering to see how much of a tip she was going to get. I feel that was not the way to make anyone comfortable so she should've walked away and came back j a few moments later. The restroom was clean but had a weird cleaning solution smell. Didn't really like it and wondered what it was. It's a simple casual restaurant so no free salsa and chips. It had a few decor items looking Mexican like the porcelain cacti in planters and the lizard wall handing. Overall it felt like a southwestern pub eatery. Overall, the food was very good. The service gets a pass with a 65% imho and the ambiance was relaxing and food.
