Chili Pepper Cafe

A convenient stop for a hearty bite. Generous portions and a laid back vibe that welcomes you in. Super friendly service and a fantastic menu selection. Can’t go wrong here for a hungry bite. Also good beer selection served cold!!

Decent value for the money, waiter disappeared at the end. It took me walking to the kitchen to get them. Tamales were a little dry but overall good. They tasted fresh and homemade.

Probably the best place to eat out here but that's also not saying much. The food is pretty good and decently priced, worth a stop if you're in the Big Bend area.

Decent texmex style food. Nothing fancy, but good food, served quickly. Friendly service. Had the burrito grande for breakfast once and chicken enchiladas another visit. Would visit again.

I really don’t want to write a 1 star review for a small business that relies on tourists, but I got food poisoning for the first time of my life here on Monday night (ate around 4:30 pm). We didn’t eat out anywhere else that day fyi. I ordered the tamale plate and the chips and queso. My husband didn’t get sick, so the only difference between what he ordered (the mexican plate) and mine was the lettuce, tomato, and guac. I had to endure a terrible 7 hr drive back to San Antonio and a 16 hour day of flying back to Canada after being so sick. Not a fun way to end the trip. I even halfway joked about getting food poisoning as we were waiting for our food because there was a collection of dead flies in the windowsill and the ceiling fan had YEARS worth of dust and grime accumulated on it. Now I won’t joke about stuff like that.

Cute small place with old character traits.
We had the Chillaquilles & Migas. Very tasty & very tasty hot sauce too.

The food is exceptionally good. Service can be slow due to the size of it, but still way faster and hospitable than your average diner.

I had the Western Omelet which was delicious. My wife had the micas which were also great. Not fancy by any means, but good food.

Stopped in here for a quick bite, sat in the nice outdoor area and ordered some food. Alcohol is separate and paid for at the bar. But the food was delicious and the beans & rice were something else, really great flavor. Would go back. Good prices, good food & great views.

Lovely place! The food was great and the vibes are Tex-Mex. This was the only place open at noon in Terlingua. It's about 20 minutes from the Summit at the Bend
