This was one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. I ordered the ribeye steak but was served a terrible cut of beef. Then when I bit my steak it tasted like it had been infused with dish soap and dirty water. When I tried to let my server know he told me that's how it's supposed to taste. I asked for my meal to be took off of my bill as I had only ate one piece of the awful steak and he said we don't do that here. My son ordered steak fries as well as my daughter and their food tasted the same. It was like the cook grabbed dirty dishes, threw a little soap on them, and plated our food. The only meal that was decent was my wife's food. I frequent many restaurants to try authentic food from various cultures but peppers is a definite NO whenever I'm looking for a meal. I'd rather eat bologna

What?!?!? I know I’m slipping, if I haven’t written a review on them. Here goes nothing!!! The food here is good. No I’m not giving them enough credit. The food here is freakin delicious no matter what you order. Sooooooo fulfilling and authentic tastes. Yes my taste buds are still enjoying the flavors of this meal. Definitely worth coming back a forth time.

Pepper's is my go to for Mexican food!Their Burrito California is my favorite dish. It just starts out with the best description "An extra large burrito . . . " :)The sides, refried beans and rice, are in the burrito! :)Now, if that is not your thing then you definitely need to try the Chimichanga Lovers! :)

Great food and great service. Had a wonderful server.

Excellent service, delicious food.

The staff were quick, friendly and attentive. The food was great and came fairly quick.

I really love Peppers in Gainesville, it's one of my favorite spots to get lunch or early dinner. So while traveling to Tallahassee, I thought it would be a safe bet to go to Peppers for dinner. Unfortunately, I l wasn't impressed. The salsa here had no flavor, and it was definitely missing that kick of spice and acidity. In Gainesville, there are at least a couple slices of fresh jalapeños floating around the salsa. Maybe they just don't include jalapeños in their salsa recipe in Tallahassee. It is definitely missing something. Then the steak fajitas came. Honestly, it tasted like everything was steamed or sauted in plain water. There was no seasoning or flavor at all. Even the bell peppers and tomatoes tasted like water. I couldn't even finish the meal. Salt and pepper just weren't enough. Everything was wildly underseasoned. The food gets 0 stars. But my server was very attentive and kind, and the BOGO margaritas were strong, those were the only redeeming qualities. I am not leaving bad feedback to get anyone in trouble, but simply to inform the location of what could be improved.

First time ordering. Lunch takeout. My order was ready quickly, and the food was excellent. Thank you! I’ll definitely be back.

Best margaritas in town! The food is always fresh and have never had bad service when I go there.

Delicious food and great service, love their 2 for one beer special on sundays
