    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.

    La comida estuvo absolutamente deliciosa! Pongo una calificación de 4 estrellas solo porque su menú no cuenta con postres! Soy de las personas que va a restaurantes porque me encanta comer postres después de una buena comida! Y fue una decepción preguntar por su menú de postres y que dijeran qie no contaban con uno! Repetiría una cena aquí pero extrañaría un buen postre al terminar!

    Pepp & Delores was terrific. It was our first time there, and we will definitely be back. The service by the hostesses and our server, Mark, were top notch. Just excellent. The food was amazing, and Mark was helpful in providing suggestions to pick things out. The vibe was great, the ambiance, everything was terrific to help us have a really nice night out. When the check arrived, we felt it was very reasonable for all of the great food we had. No doubt the chefs worked hard to serve outstanding food. Thanks and see you again soon.
