    I’ve been eating at Pepi’s for many years now. They started as a small sandwich place years ago and eventually became a pub and grill. While they have an extensive menu I would encourage trying their signature sandwich; the Bambino. The Bambino is essentially a hot beef sandwich (other meats available also) with cheese, peppers and a mild or spicy sauce (maybe a version of a marinara sauce?).

    They have IMPROVED my favorite dish of the perfect waffle fries smothered with vegetables and steak pieces. The large/full size is more than enough for two adults but I was inhaling this alone. It visually seems like a array of things covered in cheese (like everything in this state) but this is thee perfect comfort meal for a Sunday. The steak pieces were beyond tender with a real flood of flavor. Come on....how can you make a bad choice with this stuff covering waffle fries?
