pepe delgados

this is one of the few mexican restaurants that has mole sauce items on the menu.  i went here on a monday for lunch with a group of 13 people.  we were able to order immediately, and our servers took good care of us. 

when i saw mole sauce included in the description of the oaxacan enchiladas, i had to get it.  i think mole sauce pairs best with chicken, so that's what i got.  it was delicious.  their rice is standard spanish rice, and their black beans could have used more salt.  the little plastic cup ofsalsawas more on the liquid-y than chunky (which i don't like), and it was spicy (which i like).  finally, there was a house-fried corn tortilla half stuck in my black beans as a garnish.  it was a fun way to eat up the black beans. 

i don't get to norman often, but now i know i can depend on this pepe delgado's for reasonable prices, delicious food, and fast service.

excellent food! authentic and fresh tastes! simple menu and prompt service. bestsalsaverde i've ever had. owner was friendly and added a personal touch.

i'd say that people that are disappointed in this place most likely didn't read the menu. no, it is not tex-mex. fuzzy's is right up the street if that's what you want. chips andsalsaare separate, that's just the way it is. but they're only $2.75 and you get an assortment of salsas, so... also, i haven't had a bad meal here. there is sometimes a language barrier but that's the way it is. if you want tex-mex, stay out.

not impressed at all. most mexican restaurants provide chips andsalsawith your meal. not here. you have to pay for them separately. i ordered beef tacos. they came not as ground beef, but fajita meat. no lettuce, cheese or tomatoes. didn't eat much of it. came home and ate a sandwich.

true mexican, not tex-mex. i'm not a fan of true mexican. tomatillasalsaand avocado sauce (tomatillasalsawith avocado blended in) along with sweet tomato sauce on top of enchiladas was not appetizing.

great food; seat yourself atmosphere and mostly self service as well. food prices are very reasonable. chips andsalsahave to be ordered, but they are very tasty and come with several fresh salsas to choose from. other dishes tasted fresh as well, not overly greasy as is commonly the case in tex-mex restaurants.

nom!. pepe's is by far my favorite place to get good mexican food in the okc area. the food is always delicious and worth the price. i have been too many times to count in the last 8+ years, and tried the majority of the menu.

the only downside it that chips andsalsaare not included with your meal. my husband and i love the food so much that this doesn't really deter us, even though we are chips andsalsafiends. the food is worth missing out on that, and sometimes we order the chips andsalsawith the spicy set of salsas anyway.

overall you can't go wrong by going to pepe delgados. try the enchiladas verde with chicken, or anything on the menu. it is all delicious!

fresh!. i've enjoyed eating at pepe's with it's relaxed atmosphere for over 20 years now and while some things about the restaurant have changed (it's in the old liberty d's location instead of across the alley from sugar's thank you very much), emilio's philosophy about pepe's, food and service has not. (several years ago he told me, "it's not gourmet, it's good quality food, served fast."). i believe the chief cook has been there since the very beginning, the food is not smothered with cheese, the chips andsalsaaren't free and the ingredients put into the food have flavor that tastes fresh, not greasy. my personal fave is the beef quesadilla, closely followed by the beef corn mula. i love the fresh tomatilla sauce and cilantro. my son, whose choice is primarily influenced by quantity, goes for the super nachos but the girls like the burritos or ecnhiladas. the boss usually tries one of the daily specials or the spicy tortilla soup with avocado slices (it's sensational on a cold day).

jeff, the bartender, has been at pepe's for several years and is as good as there is, in norman. several tvs make for easy watching of a game as long as it's not a home game day.

i've eaten at just about every restaurant, that's been open for more than a couple of years, in norman and pepe's is always clean, always fresh, and the most consistently good food at a very affordable price i have found.

excellent mole!. first timers, noticed it has moved into the old liberty d's ... took us a minute to realize all orders are placed at the counter and seating is open. i had the enchiladas oaxacan (chicken enchiladas with mole sauce). husband had ? can't remember the name - sliced chicken in red sauce, very smokey & spicy. we ordered chips &salsahot -- got 3 options of salsa, added guac. we love this place. friendly, helpful staff and great quality. can tell the sauces are slow cooked and delicious. we will make the travel from okc often for pepe delgados (except on game weekends)!

tried nachos. they were alright. enjoyed thesalsaappetizer. 4 different kinds to try.

somebody please please give me a larger cup ofsalsa!!! cause it's soooooo goooood!!!!

it's good!. the main thing i enjoy is that it isn't overloaded with salt. i get the plato mexicano and it is very good. not a place to load up on chips andsalsathough. :-)

lunch on october 13, 2011. the owner is very rude. they made my nachos wrong and i asked for new ones. he brought them to me with everything on the side. i told him that i only wanted thesalsaon the side and he says you should eat them this way. i told him to give me my money back. he dropped $12 on the table and told me i could keep the extra as profit. i used to love this place.

my favorite restaraunt of all time!!!!!!. this is hands down the one place i always think of when im hungry.i highly recommend the vegetarian nachos.ask for thesalsaplate too,which includes:1spicy warm red,1sweetly mild chilled tomatillo,and 1 avacado green chili blend salsa.ask for a side of their whole marinated jalapenos(they are free),and dont forget to try the home brewed horchata.horchata is a sweet cinnamon rice milk.yum!best of all food is around 7$ in a casual atmosphere,great for lunch(they are fast)or a relaxed dinner.try it.you will not be dissapointed
