Peppers Mexicali Café

Frommers's Review

Peppers is a casual, festive place with good food at reasonable prices. The inviting dining room has wooden floors and tables, lots of pepper art, and a perpetual crowd of regulars who come to suck up beers and savor spicy but well-balanced seafood tacos and fajitas or house-made tamales and chiles rellenos. Other fire-starters include the snapper Yucatán, cooked with chiles, citrus cilantro, and tomatoes; and grilled prawns with lime-cilantro dressing. More than a dozen daily specials include Mexican seafood paella and grilled mahimahi tacos. The selection of cervezas is substantial, the chips and salsas are addictive, and the staff is exceptionally friendly.
