Best

I enjoy the paella, and love the guacamole. It's delicious. But most of all I love the bar and the service.

Worst

I brought my out-of-town sister and her fiance to Tio Pepe and was embarrassed by the end of the meal. Service couldn't have been worse, and our food was bad. We sat in the back p...

"DISCRIMINATION" from this restaurant! 11/23/2008

I just had dinner with my friend today. We ordered one appetizer and two main courses, no drink. The server and the food was good. But I have one thing that was not impress on this restaurant and won't come back again. My bill was $60.69 already plus tax but they put gratuity on the bill even I came only 2 persons. so the bill was $70.77 I was shock because I'm working in the restaurant as well and never put the gratuity just for 2 persons before. How was happened? Is it because we are the Asian or we didn't order the drink and dessert??? We felt that we'd got the "DISCRIMINATION!" from the server. I knew how much I should pay the tip for the restaurant because normally, whenever I go to restaurant, I always give the tip 20%.. After I got the bill I asked one server of the restaurant " Do you always put the gratuity every tables? I asked. and that server said " yes" ... That server name "Israel". I hope the restaurant will have the answer for this review because, this was not our first time and we never get any charge on it from here. Every time, we gave 20% on tip for the server as we understand how hard they work as the server! more

Im obsessed with good food and always want to eat in a special place. Last Thursday I took a walk along West 4th in Greenwich Village and somehow I entered Tio Pepe. At the front doors a hostess with her big smile informed that paella festival from Spain is very good and indeed !! It was really good !!! I enjoyed this Spanish -Mexican scene with romantic music and friendly staff that are nice and cares. The guys just take pleasure in giving a good service. I had such a good time there. From now on I am a big fan of PAELLA !!! more

A Great Place Bring a Friend 9/25/2008

The menu may be a little predictable but the food is always up to par. It is moderatley priced but you won't be dissappointed. The great atmosphere combined with the reasonable prices and tasty food make it the perfect place to go on a first date, eat out on a night with your friends, or bring some out-of- towners. My boyfriend's family is English and they came over from England and this is where I brought them to eat. They loved it! I've also eaten here on dates. The service is great and the bathrooms are clean. I highly recommend the Nachos Camperos to start. more

Yummy paella and plenty more! 6/13/2008

We went here on a hot NY afternoon and fell in love with Tio Pepe- the drinks were amazing, all cocktails were made with fresh berries, none of those sugary flavor syrups. The food was awesome too- especially the paella, which contained some of the most flavorful rice I have ever tried! Service was geat - very attentive and prompt..I will definitely be coming back soon! Pros: Delicious cocktails and food, friendly service Cons: Somewhat pricey more

Best Guac in town! 4/16/2008

As Mexican food lovers we were interested to see if Tio Pepe lived up to its reputation. We were not disappointed! We waited about 5mins to be seated and were given a nice table by the window. The restaurant itself is buzzing.. not in a bad way but in a bustling, alive kind of way. Our waiters were great! they were polite, funny and attentive without being in our faces. The food was great! The Guacamole, made table side, was spectacular. Beware it is a little expensive $12 for guac and chips BUT it is totally worth it!! Our mains were nice.. maybe not quite as amazing as the guac but still delicious. I had the Chicken Chimichanga which was delicious.. the 'pastry' was really light and wasn't dripping in oil like at other places.. My Fiance had a Paella which although was very nice it wasn't as good as the Mexican fare.. The only thing that stopped me from giving Tio Pepe a 5 star rating was the awful bathrooms! The women's bathroom was gross! It really needed a good clean and general repair to broken tiles etc.. One other word of advice if you don't know the area and you are easily offended don't sit by the window.. the view across the street is a number of adult stores. Pros: The Gaucamole and the waiters Cons: The bathrooms!!! Yuck!! more

Great customer service 3/3/2008

This was a great experience, from start to finish. We started with a Margarita and Pulpo a la Gallega as an appetizer, my Paella was out of this world. A couple next to us was celebrating their 20th First Date Aniversary and were very Happy to be back , I will recommended to all my friends. more
