Been seeing this place a lot on social media and have wanted to come for a very long time. We finally made it here. The service was awesome. Very friendly. We obviously didn't look like we were from the neighborhood. We ordered the quesabirria, pozole soup carne en Su jugo. It was amazing. I wasn't even going to get the pozole but I decided to try it. I'm so glad I did. It was probably the best. In any case, all three had distinct flavor. Amazing.

Finally came today to try this restaurant! I love seeing the posts on Instagram and have been wanting to come for a long time! I had the two taco dinner. The al pastor tacos were delicious, rice and beans on point! I had the michelada as well with cucumber and shrimp! I ordered tacos to go for my parents and they loved the tacos as well! The green salsa is amazing. The cost and prices are very very reasonable especially for delicious food! Will definitely be back to try other meals!

Really amazing food. I ordered the Chilaquiles Don Pepe, which was an enormous platter. The wife went with the shrimp tacos. The service was attentive enough, and our server was really nice in explaining things. I wish I lived closer, if so, this would be my go to spot. This is easily one of the best Mexican restaurants in Chicago.

I've NEVER tasted a Michelada like the one I tried here. It was remarkably delicious. Carne en su jugo was tasteful and delicious. Can't wait to come again.

We walked in and was able to get indoor seating right away. The serving size were big, but the service was a bit slow.

Ambience is inviting and lively.If you're looking for truly authentic Mexican food then look no further. Don Pepe has a great menu from tacos, tortas, pozole and their specialty carne en su jugo.Everything we tried was flavorful with a kick. Salsa and chips? Yes please!I will definitely recommend that you visit Don Pepe for amazing food.Reviewed:Tacos and Tortas are not consistent with flavor.Mediocre for tacos and tortas.

The drinks are hugeeeee and the food portion are big too. This place is perfect if you just want to do drinks and appetizers or just food but you will explode if you get food and drinks. Everything was delicious. It's a tad pricey but considering the portions I think it's fair. No parking lot just street parking
