So many great options in the menu, and the great thing is there is an option for everyone. My girlfriend is gluten free snd she didn’t struggle with examining the menu for safe choices. The empanadas are so delicious and I would fly back just for those

One of the best places to eat in the area, Sale & Pepe never fails to impress. The food is simply great — every dish is crafted with care, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re dining in for a special occasion or a casual meal, the quality is consistently outstanding. What truly sets Sale & Pepe apart, however, is the service. Superb from start to finish — the staff are attentive, warm, and genuinely passionate about making your experience memorable. You never feel rushed, and every detail is thoughtfully taken care of. If you haven’t visited yet, do yourself a favor and book a table. Sale & Pepe is the kind of restaurant that keeps you coming back time and time again. Highly recommended!

Oh we loved our experience here! Que rico! Everything was so decadent and the empanada selection was broad and interesting. At first we were nervous that the menu had no prices on it, but it turned out to be a fair price. We also enjoyed wine and risotto.
