10. Peppers Taco

After a somewhat of a fail at two of the area chain Mexican restaurants I thought I would try this place. I am really glad I did and think you should too. Mostly servers drive-through business with a lane on each side of the building but you can walk up on either side and eat at a short counter in front.

My wife and I recently visited this location for dinner. We opted for the two for $19 special. Our appetizer was chicken fajita nachos. The nachos were crispy with a generous portion of beans and cheese and fajita chicken. The fajita chicken had a nice smoky taste. They were served with what appeared to be a poor shot at guacamole or a mix of guac and sour cream. Overall the appetizer wasn't bad. We each got an entree with two items. I chose chimichanga and sour cream chicken enchilada and my wife chose two sour cream chicken enchiladas. The chicken enchiladas tasted ok but were a little strange. The meat did not have a lot of flavor but had something in it that made it red. The beans and rice were average. The enchiladas we OK but not great. My chimichanga had a nice taste but was a tad overcooked. For desert we chose the brownie fudge sundae. Overall it was good. Brownie was nice and chewy. My wife ate the cherry off the sundae and said it tasted spoiled. Overall I would say the meal was just so-so and pretty atypical of a chain Mexican food restaurant. If I were shopping at Town East I might go back and eat there. I'm not sure I would make a special trip to eat there. I noticed another reviewer had problems with the booth they were seated in. When we were seated it felt like we were sitting in the floor. We asked to be moved to a table which they did but made a comment that others had complained about the booths. Considering there were only about 4 other parties in there I wanted to ask why they sat us there in the first place!

Food is Very Bland. Tasteless. Everything taste the Same. Prices are ok. Service just ok. Nice and Clean. Won't Be Going Back. If I want Mexican Food again there are Better places. Just happened to be passing by and thought I'd try it. Nothing Special.

Every day at 8 a.m., we start chopping veggies, soaking beans, and prepping our mesquite-fired grill. Not because we have to, but because we believe in delicious flavors made-to-order, from hand-rolled enchiladas to our sizzling fajitas to guacamole made

We ate the free meal for veterans. It was not a chincy meal at all. Good choices,excellent and speedy service. The food that we had was very tasty. Good Tex-Mex. Would go back again.

Peppers is one of those hole in the wall places that has the best food. they have no alcohol at all but you can bring your own in and they will even give you a wine glass or a beer glass, very very good food and great chips and salsa. And they serve breakfast all day on Saturday and Sunday. it is soo good. you will not be dissapointed at all.

I was pretty excited cause I was for the first time in my life in an actual Mexican Food restaurant... my boyfriend and I bearly ate our food. It didn't met our expectations, maybe yours would be fulfilled! If I'm giving 2 points it's because I can't take away that our waiter was very nice and attentive to us. The ambience was very colorful and distracting, like if you were somewhere else.

This is not your typical Tex-Mex restaurant, as this is more Mexican. There are a variety of great meals to choose from, and the items I had were delicious. The staff is attentive, and the surroundings were clean, and attractive. Cocktails are served as well.

Was a loyal Posados customer first at the Plano location and then the Frisco location and both were closed. Made a point to come to this location 19 miles from home while returning from a road trip. The food was great (try the Monterrey and the chicken fajitas) as the other locations had been. Service from Keke was excellent despite her having many tables some with 6+ guests or more.
