AMAZING! That is all I have to say about this restaurant. This out ever signed taco place to shameeeee. Came in around 12:00 A.m. and the food was done so quickly and the service was awesome we will definitely make this a first stop when in area.

Un taco segun

Hola a todos! Como Sonorense me dio por probar unos taquitos aqui. El lugar se ve bien pero la mera neta.... La mesera nos brindo un servicio horrible. Tan mal atitud contra mis invitados que ni comi la comida ya que arruino mi apetito. Mis amigos dijieron que la comida estaba bien pero igual no lo recomiendo debido al pesimo atitud y mal costumbres de la mesera flaca guera. Sinceramente hice esta cuenta de YELP solamente para advertirle a la gente. Normalmente me da weba hacer reviews pero la neta no le deseo este servicio a nadie.

Hungry for tacos at 1:00 am? This place will take care of that! They have steak and al pastor tacos among other delicious menu items. I'm glad someone recommended this place. I give 2 thumbs up

This is probably the worst pastor tacos I have ever tried in my life, combined with a horrible customer service. Even if the place is empty, all the waiters ~4 are looking away or they are on their phones, when they finally see you they are thinking in other things rather than paying attention. The place is also infested with all types of flying insects, there is indoors seating but it only holds about 2 tables. The seating is mostly outside and it's full of smoke from the grill and super hot.

Excellent pastor tacos, service and ambiance, no alcoholic drinks. Would return again. Beef tacos are much more.

This place is a hidden gem a short ride from my resort in Nuevo Vallarta but well worth the cab fare.

Nice setting, friendly attentive service, menu has a good variety of choices ranging from grilled…read morewood fired meats, pizza, fish. A variety of pastas and starters to satisfy all who dine. We enjoyed our meal of pear salad, octopus grilled and steak. All prepared well. My only disappointment was we felt the plates came so fast...timing. We barely finished our salad and the entrees were delivered. We will return.

Tried the tasting menu with drink pairing and couldn't have been happier!…read moreTL;DR: Go for the full tasting menu with the drink pairings Amuse (4/5): a mushroom creation from the kitchen that was topped with a little bit of microgreens. Really surprised by the texture of the mushroom but could've used more of the greens and accent sauce Aguachile (4.5/5): delicious with varied textures - only complaint was that the avocados were a little brown and overripe Tomato salad (3.5/5): not too creative nor memorable but still yummy Octopus taco (4/.5/5): the octopus was perfectly crispy and flavors were well-balanced with the lime and pickled onions. Only knock is the tortilla was a little too oily for my liking Beef tenderloin (5/5) vs Tuna steak (4.5/5) - MVPs: Both of these main proteins were delicious and made even more so by the jalapeno gremolata. Usually I prefer fish but the beef was really perfectly cooked and more filling so slight nod to the beef Avo ice cream (4/5): Not to say it was bad but this dessert definitely looks prettier than it tastes. Although the avocado taste didn't come out in the ice cream, the crumble was a great addition to both texture and flavor. Not pictured (5/5): perfectly paired drinks :) Definitely a pricier meal than other local options but for a celebratory dinner, the value is 100% there! Service (5+/5): Staff was absolutely on their game and truly catered to everything we needed We'll absolutely be back Salud, Loma42!

There are places that simply serve food--and then there are places that become part of your story…read more Pepe's Tacos is exactly that for me. Having come here since I was 10 years old, this iconic taquería isn't just a local favorite--it's a timeless institution that continues to define what truly exceptional tacos should be. Since 1987, Pepe's has built a reputation that extends far beyond Puerto Vallarta, and one visit is all it takes to understand why. The star of the show--their legendary tacos al pastor--is nothing short of extraordinary. The pork is expertly marinated and cooked to perfection, resulting in meat that is incredibly juicy, tender, and bursting with deep, savory flavor. Each slice is carved with precision and layered onto warm tortillas, creating a perfect foundation for what comes next. What truly elevates these tacos is the balance of toppings. The sweetness of the pineapple and the sharpness of the fresh onions cut through the richness of the meat beautifully, enhancing every bite with contrast and complexity. It's a masterclass in simplicity done right--every ingredient playing its role to perfection. Beyond the food, the experience itself is just as memorable. The service is impressively fast and efficient, especially considering how popular this spot is, and there's an undeniable energy in the air that makes it feel alive at all hours. It's the kind of place you can count on for a late-night bite, where the atmosphere is casual, vibrant, and always welcoming. Pepe's Tacos isn't about reinvention or trend--it's about consistency, tradition, and delivering excellence time and time again. Decades later, it still holds its place as one of the best taco spots in Puerto Vallarta, and for good reason. Some things never change--and when they're this good, they absolutely shouldn't.

Thirty five years in the game and Pepe's runs like a well oiled machine. The dining room is its own…read moreecosystem, a natural choreography of service where everything flows without friction. Out front, the trompo spins over charcoal fire, hand turned, on display to the street. The man at the blade is a performer, part craftsman, part showman. He hones his knife between razor thin shavings of al pastor, then in a reflexive flourish nips the pineapple crowning the meat, sending a sliver flying only to catch it with a tortilla. It is theater, but it is also instinct. Inside, the crowd looks like the United Nations. A tour group from India next to a Dutch family with half a dozen kids in tow, the Canadians eye the Americans with deserved suspicion, and a few locals whose plates are piled high while tourists settle for modest portions. It is the natural order of things, and nobody complains. The charcoal scent in the meat makes clear this is al pastor's intended preparation. I have never had the pleasure of eating from a coal fired trompo before, and it is instantly apparent that this is the way it was meant to be. Someday, somehow, I will rig one of these up, because I need this in my life. Pepe's is not just a taco shop. It is a master class in tradition, theater, and flavor, with a dining room that feels like the world gathered around one spit.
