    Great experience at Pepp and Dolores! Shout out to our server Rachel who was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and attentive. I highly recommend The Sunday Sauce and Pink Peppercorn IPA.

    We’ve been here several times and we are never disappointed! This time we sat in part of the restaurant we didn’t even know existed, very cool. Food was delicious as always. Could have finished the espresso martinis in two sips they were so good.
