Pepe's & Mito's - Review - Deep Ellum - Dallas - The Infatuation

"Pepe’s & Mito’s has been a Deep Ellum mainstay since 1994. Regulars pile into tables against a vibrant Frida Kahlo mural and brick walls covered with framed pesos, yellowing headshots of Mexican actors, and even painting of a margarita-sipping parrot—gifts from loyal diners. It’s homey, laid-back and exactly where you want to be for lunch. Everyone’s here for the stewy Tacos Norteños: fajita meat simmered in chipotle wine sauce that lands on a bed of four, street-sized corn tortillas. That saucy, smoky first bite will have you hooked. You won’t find them anywhere else, and they’re the reason first timers become lifers. Add a frozen margarita and you have the perfect Dallas leisurely lunch. photo credit: Brock DuPont" - Desiree Gutierrez
