Pepe's & Mito's Mexican Café

LOVE this place! I've never had a bad meal or a bad time here. Chipotle enchiladas, shrimp enchiladas, shrimp fajitas, chimichangas, the combo meals... nothing I've had has ever missed. Servers are great and always so nice. It's a fun vibe and pretty casual. Chips and salsa are great. Great great great, that's my answer to every question about it I guess, idk

We are visiting family and today we went into Deep Ellum for an afternoon of walking, viewing the murals and grabbing lunch. We chose authentic Mexican and went to Pepe & Mito's. We were seated right away and she took our drink order while they brought the chips and salsa. I ordered a chicken taco salad without the cheese and sour cream. It came with a house dressing mixture of their salsa and vinegarette which was very good. The salad was delicious. The boys got enchiladas and said they were so tasty. The one wall has a beautiful mural painted on it. It's super casual but clean inside and the service was top notch! They have a lunch menu and we really enjoyed our meal!!

This is a hometown hero local, you can tell just by the outside of the building. It's right near the train station as well, so very easy to access. Been here for 30 years plus, so you know the love is in the building. The food was impressive. Everything here taste fresh and the waitress was accommodating. Authentic!!!

I spent the last week in Dallas on business and figured I'd try to hit a few new places. I like hitting restaurants that were on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, so I was please to find this spot near downtown Dallas.My conference ended a bit early, and the lunch was pretty bad so I skipped it. Once I got to P&M's I was famished and ready to tuck in. However, it was early - about 5PM, and I knew I'd be hungry again before bedtime. So, I ordered bean & cheese nachos to eat at the restaurant and mixed (chicken & beef) fajitas for a late dinner in my room.As always, the chips and salsa set the mood, and I really enjoyed these. The salsa has just the right amount of heat - spicy enough to get your attention, but not enough to really burn.The chips were warm and tasted fresh, both in the basket as well as on the plate of nachos. The nachos had good servings of refried beans and cheese and were super enjoyable, except for the guacamole. It tasted fresh, but bland and needed a good shot of salt to have any real flavor.The fajitas were still good after sitting for several hours. The tortillas were homemade and very good and the beef fajitas were well seasoned. The chicken, unfortunately, was bland... almost no flavor at all. The refried beans were okay, but the rice had no flavor.As far as the service goes, I was pretty surprised to find I was the only customer in the restaurant, even though it was early. The chips and salsa were brought immediately and my order was taken pretty quickly. It didn't take too long for the food to come, but then everyone disappeared. No refill on my drink, my salsa, my chips, or anything else.Overall, some of the food was average, some was good and the service was meh.

Food was amazing. Sooooo authentic and fresh. Margaritas were nice and strong. Service was friendly and fast. It's in deep Ellum, old building but well kept. I'd definitely recommend the cheese enchiladas and the fajita nachos.

Found this quick & casual Mexican restaurant in Deep Ellum, perfect for on the go lunch. The service was only ok; the staff was very friendly and polite, however the service was on the slow side. There was noticeable wait for service and the check. Now the food: we ordered Tacos Norteños (as featured by Guy Fieri) & Chilaquiles. Both dishes were delicious. The taco meat was super flavorful. The chilaquiles was on point, the chips were very crispy and the chorizo had the perfect level of spice. The complementary chip and salsa were welcoming bonuses, try not to eat too much of those and leave room for the entrees!If we're in the area, we'd come back again and we'd recommend this spot to others. Enjoy!

My husband and I were on an unexpected quick trip to Dallas a few days ago and stayed nearby this place in Deep Ellum. Such a cool neighborhood! We hoped to grab some good Tex-Mex food while in town and Pepe's & Mito's had pretty good reviews so we headed there. We had no trouble getting a table and the staff was friendly and attentive. Lucky us, we happened to be there during happy hour! I had the house margarita on the rocks while hubby had a frozen strawberry margarita. At $5 each, they were a good deal while also being strong and tasty! They brought out warm chips with good salsa while we looked over the menu. I ended up getting a "House Speciality" item - Shrimp Enchiladas, which are served with rice, beans, and salad. At $18.95, I felt they were a tad pricey. But my husband had some of mine because he only ordered a Tortilla Soup. We would come back here again, especially during Happy Hour!

Food was fresh. I got bean nachos. I asked for light cheese but it was very cheesy. Prices average around $20 a meal, maybe due to the neighborhood. The jalapeno margarita was hitting!! Salsa had a slight spice. I loved the crema. There aren't many vegan options for anyone with those restrictions.

05/20/2023 Saturday 4:45pm. After seeing to Kill a mockingbird at fair park we popped in to this well know establishment. The salsa is legit. A tad bit of cumin and great tomato flavor. Not too spicy! We both ordered combination plates me an enchilada dinner and he combo #3. They were both solid choices. Hot and melty cheese! Not my favorite Mexican food but a good choice.

Love this place. Try to go to it every time I'm in the area. The staff has alway been nice and the food is great. Been going here for probably 15 years now.
