Wife and I stopped in for lunch today Food was some of the most unseasoned food I've ever eaten in my life. We each got a combo plate with chicken enchiladas, chorizo burrito and chorizo tacos. The chorizo taste like unseasoned and over oiled ground beef, the chicken tasted boiled and like it had not ever seen a flake of salt or pepper. The food took also about half an hour to get to our table even though we were one of 4 tables. Lady at the counter was at least nice but probably won't return.

Uhh... So all chicken dishes EXCEPT for the chicken fajita (apparently) come UNSEASONED. I'm talkin' bleached-flour-white chicken meat, NOTHING ON IT -AND THIS IS "USUAL". Probably the most disappointing chicken taco I've ever put in my mouth, holy God. I get that Maine is WHITE, but I didn't know y'all were THAT white!!! 😭
The nacho plate with beef came with SEASONED BEEF, and it was a huge portion, couldn't even finish it, so that was your saving grace, Pepinos.

I always go back to Pepinos for the same thing. Chicken Fiesta salad with extra dressing and extra chicken. It really is a "party" in your mouth with the added bonus of the crunchy fried tortilla on the bottom. The first time I tried Pepinos was when my coworkers were ordering lunch one day in 2022, and we all ordered Chicken Fiesta Salads (at their recommendation). Since falling in love with it, I've eaten it many times but only via takeout. My aunt brought my boyfriend and I to the Bangor location for dinner this past summer, so I got to try their housemade salsa and chips. And they turned out to be some of the best I've ever had. Someday, maybe I'll try ordering other items on the menu but until then, I will continue to order the simple but simply delicious, Chicken Fiesta Salad.

Food is awesome. It never disappoints. The staff is wonderful and always very pleasant. The only thing is I wish the inside was alittle bigger. Not much seating.
