Heard good things and finally got to check out pepper lunch! Nearby garage parking in the back, streets get very busy here. Dining in seems to be a fun experience with the hot stone plates, but I ordered a basic beef pepper rice for takeout. Food was prepared quickly. Decently sized, filling and tasty, but was oily, with little beef. Was pretty good considering the price though, definitely works in its niche. Worth a quick stop if you’re in a rush.

The food was extremely salty! The portion size was so small. I got the classic sizzling pepper rice with beef and was left so disappointed. The sizzler experience is cool but not worth the $$. The server was super friendly but that doesn’t compensate for the lost money and time.

Right on the corner of Garfield and Main street. There is a parking structure nearby.

Delicious steak and love how it’s served on a sizzling plate so you still have the option to cook it longer if you wish. Seasoning is just right

Pepper Lunch is not too busy that you won’t get seated soon. The service is great and the staffs are friendly. However, the pricing is too high. I ordered New York Steak and it cost me so much more compared to Diner’s on Main. The taste was so so and the meat was very hard to cut. I also ordered Beef Teriyaki, yes it tasted great, but the portion was too small that I ate it up in a couple of minutes. My food was up but I was not even full yet.

Came here for linner on a Thursday afternoon. We had a party of seven, but the staff wouldn’t give us a table that accommodates seven until everyone showed up. We found that rather odd considering the restaurant was practically empty at that time. Okay, no problem, it’s a small place with only a handful of tables. Aside from that, the beef rice plate was good, but the portion was super small.

long wait and small meat portions.i could barely taste the chicken in all the rice. staff was friendly and seemed to be in a tough spot due to how swamped the place was so i have to give them credit. still i wouldn’t recommend this place with so many other unique places out there.

My go to when I want kbbq but not really and I want meat best place. When you get your food make sure to cook it thoroughly before it stops sizzling otherwise you will be stuck with some raw meat! Parking is behind. Is a bit tricky and some walking.

Came to try their famous Classic Beef Pepper Rice skillet with mushrooms and egg and it did not disappoint. The skillet came out piping hot with the meat and toppings cooked halfway. After a few minutes the meat, egg and mushrooms were fully cooked. The final step is to mix it together and eat. Service is friendly and they have a nice outside patio plus free parking structure behind the restaurant.

For what it is, the food is delicious, albeit a bit greasy. The portion for the large is good, it filled me up. The value is decent for the quality, and the restaurant itself is fairly clean and well lit. I ordered the regular pepper beef in large. I didn’t get anything special with it. It was very good. I enjoyed every bite of it. Could I have eaten more? The other people in my group added cheese, which added a creaminess to it, as well as some crispy texture for the cheese that dried onto the sizzling plate. Another person got the burger meat, which was very soft, which I didn’t like. It wasn’t undercooked, it was just very soft beef patty. Almost weirdly soft. The egg is a nice addition to the rice. I would get that next time. Overall a 5.
