Pepe’s — want traditional Mexican at very affordable prices? Pepe’s is your place then. Very good food; you’ll probably have to experiment with your ordering, but at these prices, who cares? Be adventurous!

Not sure of the address, but on the right side of the main road heading into downtown Cabo, just across from the mall. ($)
