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...

Wow. Great Spot. 9/20/2005

Everything that came to the table here was fantastic. I'm always expecting a little less from restaurants in this part of town, but Tio Pepe was incredible. The octopus especially. Great Service, great drinks, you should go. Pros: outdoor seating, inexpensive more

Double Blind Test 4/29/2005

I was actually on a "Blind Date" last night (4/29/05), and her sister recommended the place. Great choice (the eats as well as the date). Upon entering, we were whisked to a table near the window (my fave spot). After ordering drinks, we both decided on the Paella Vallenciana, brought out on hot plates. Neither of us were very hungry, yet we could not stop serving ourselves this fantastic, and generous cornucopia of rice, seafood and chicken. We even saw them make fresh guacomole right at someone table. The staff was great, attentive, and always within view. The atmosphere was also great. Dinner for 2, including drinks and 2 cafe au lait totaled $40. bucks. Can't wait to check out the backyard garden room this summer. By the way, my date can't wait either ; ) Pros: Staff, Food, Atmosphere Cons: n/a, n/a, n/a more

Fantastic Party 2/2/2005

I threw a party at Tio Pepe's on 1/8/05 and it was absolutely fabulous. Everyone raved about the food, the service and the drinks. The staff was so friendly they became part of the family (and that was before the pitcher of Pina Colada) If you want to simply enjoy good food in a nice atmosphere visit Tio Pepe's Pros: Food, Staff, Drinks Cons: None, None, None more

Food was excellent but wait was too long 10/30/2004

Tio Pepe is a great place to try Spanish/Mexican food. For first timers, I recommend the Paella Valenciana. It's seafood with rice. The rice was delicious and I think the sauce they used was from the clams. I went with a group of 6 and the wait for the food took over an hour. Could be because it was a Sat. packed night. They served tortilla chips for munches and yet the wait was still too long. It is a restaurant that can handle groups, but I don't think the group would want to wait TOO long for their food. Pros: food, fair value, ambience Cons: , service was average more

Perfection in the Village 6/21/2004

Tio Pepe!!! An amazing deal for such an amazing taste! When I visit New York I make a sure stop at Tio Pepe & I never pass up on the Sangria. The service is beyond compare and there is a festive feel no matter what the occasion. Overall--a perfect Spanish/Mexican restaurant in the Village. Pros: service, price, drinks more

Great Place to Hold Event 6/21/2004

I held a bridal shower in the backyard garden room and it was absolutely beautiful. The guests said it was the best bridal shower they had ever attended. Of course, they had had a few of Tio Pepe's wonderful Margaritas at that point. It is a perfect setting to hold a private event - plenty of light, plants. The food and service were excellent. The staff helped me put together an easy menu with three choices within my budget. I really have nothing negative to say about the experience. Highly recommended for a private event or a nice romantic dinner. Pros: Ambiance, Reasonably Priced, Great Food more

Warm folks & great food 6/18/2004

""Tio Pepe"" is a family-owned restaurant and you know it from the easy, at-home feeling you get as soon as you come in. The waiters are friendly and competent. It's no problem to catch a waiter's eye. They are attentive (though never obtrusive). The menu features a wide-variety of Spanish-Mexican favorites, top-notch because the ingredients are always fresh, always first quality. Want guacamole dip? The waiter will make it fresh at your table. My favorite, the cheese quesadillas, are the best around town. ""Tio Pepe"" can become a habit real easy. Jim Smith more

Great before going out 5/14/2004

to a bar or club. The atmosphere was lively last night, full of groups. It's not really romantic, as the editors labeled it. The servers were friendly and it's not as expensive as I thought it would be ($11.99 for a main entree of paella). Pros: Lively, Open late, Nice decor more
