    Really varied menu, with everything from mexican to indian choices, which seemed odd, however dinner was delicious!
    Enjoyed the halibut tacos, and my boyfriends stuff pork tenderloin was fabulous.
    Service was really attentive, and friendly even though they had two massive birthday parties in there at the time!

    If I'm in Squamish, then I know where I'm having dinner...discovered pepe & gringo's on a rainy Fall evening, & by accident...you know how it is, strange town, should I check this place out or what....certainly glad that I did!    Very friendly staff, good kitchen, delicious meal & nicely presented.   Now, that's where I go, whenever it's dinner & I'm nearby.    I look forward to being there in a more summer moment, so can try out the patio space!

    This was a great find on the way back from the Black Tusk to Vancouver.
    Outdoor seating was nice.

    The menu was fairly varied, and not what I would typically picture for a Tex-Mex restaurant. The house salad was fantastic. For entrees, I chose the mixed grill, that included scallops, salmon and halibut. My wife had the skirt steak. Both items needed salt to suit our American palate, but
    were excellent.

    I came here for lunch before heading off to a whitewater rafting trip (woo!).

    They had a great lunch menu, with prices ranging from $7-$14. Items were quite varied, from a simple soup and salad combo to chicken tikka masala to three taco fiesta. I order the spaghetti bolognese since I wanted something filling but simple for the days activities.

    The food took a bit longer to come out than I would normally want for a quick lunch, but when it came out I was not disappointed. It was still hot and fresh from the kitchen, and tasted pretty decent.

    I definitely would have loved the chance to come back from dinner and see how the vibe was, but this is a great place in Squamish to come for a nice and relaxing lunch.

    I wanted this to be good and that's why I went at least 5 times over a few years.  But, when the best thing they do at a tapas/mexican place is...pasta (?) you have to wonder.  Service varies from slow and unfriendly to perfectly decent.  It depends.  If you've ever had real Mexican food, avoid what they try to do - it will not impress you.  Sometimes they have some nice fish but to be safe, have the pasta.

    Everything in this town is overpriced including Pepe and Gringo's.  Having said that,  you can do better in Squamish.

    Fresh, cozy, attentive service. Just felt like everyone working there cared. Been a while since we were there, will certainly be back.

    I came here after a day on the mountain in the winter. The restaurant was quite spacious and it was a bit on the dark side - but it might become a disco(?) in the evening.

    Since it was a Tex-Mex type place I got a burrito. I wasn't expecting too much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The portions was ample - but I was able to eat all of my meal - it's rare when I don't. The burrito reminded me of a wrap, but I knew not to compare it to anything I've tried before. The burrito was a 6/10 on my authenticity scale. There was also some chips and salsa that preceeded the meal which one can never go wrong with!

    The one thing that did not impress on me was the price - it was a bit on the high side from what I recall. Overall, the place is acceptable and I would go back. Don't expect a Mission-style burrito and you'll be fine.

    Love the food here, the flat iron steak and butter chicken are fabulous.  Great for kids as well.  Friendly, low key atmosphere.  Great place to drop by for just dessert too!
