    Food was great as always, however We felt very rushed by our server and the back room where we ate was VERY loud, we could not hear each other. We were finished with our meal in 1 hour for 4 people, we felt rushed. The food was great.

    Our waitress was outstanding and her knowledge of gluten free options made my experience exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was pleasant. This was our first time at Pepp & Dolores. We live an hour and twenty minutes away and my wife commented in the middle of our meal that she would be willing to make the drive to just have dinner. She’s pretty selective about dinning out and that speaks volumes. The entire staff was so nice especially our hostess and waitress. Kudos to everyone especially the kitchen staff for an amazing meal.
