I've had Pepino's twice now and have been extremely satisfied with each aspect of their restaurant. The staff is friendly, the food is phenominal and and the price point is not too bad. I never knew it was here before my coworkers showed it to me and I look forward to trying the rest of their menu!
The Italian Beef at Pepinos Schererville was huge! Ample amounts of thinly sliced beef with with a unique spicy giardiniera that included green olives. I would’ve liked to have been a little spicier, but it was fine and the jus was good. This was a banger of a sandwich and I would definitely order it again. The staff who assisted me with my purchase were very attentive and nice.
Got the combo beef and sausage with the works. Great tastes- beef flavor, char on sausage, just right roll- and portions are made for leftovers. Will definitely be a return guest ...
We love Pepinos and anytime we are near them, we stop to eat. It's as good today as it was 35 years ago.
Place is phenomenal. Italian beef sandwich has so much meat on it that you could order an additional bun and make 2 sandwiches. The service was quick and pleasant. No rain for anything less then five stars.
Love it here. I recently moved closer and now I’m going even more often! The portions for the prices are unreal! I’m so impressed. Everything that comes out of the kitchen looks and smells amazing. My favorite dinner is the stuffed shells but I’ll come regularly for a slice of pizza too. I love that they have a little bit of everything. Great and friendly service and I never have to wait long. Kitchen is very efficient!
Holy cow, if you like Itilian beef, you have to try this restaurant. I had the itilian beef itilian sausage combo, and it was the best itilian beef I have ever had. On top of that, the fries are fresh cut and just as good. Great out of the way spot that I found. The staff was really friendly and recommended the food to me. I will definitely be returning again!! If you go there to eat, you're going to put on about 10 pounds with their portions, but it is worth it!
Awesome Roast Beef good pricing friendly staff
