Went to a milestone birthday party. The staff was tremendously fantastic and very attentive. The food was out of this world! Such a wonderful variety of food and the white & red wine was delicious at each table. I would definitely recommend Don Pepe's restaurant for a couples, small and large parties! I have been a long time patron of Don Pepe's as I worked downtown Newark for 34 years before retiring two years ago.....Don Pepe's is always a great place to be!
Always a wonderful time! New Years party was phenomenal..never an issue with parking, the food, the staff, the food. We have been to dinner many times and never an issue. Don’t ask for butter with your bread people..it’s not that kind of place..use the olive oil. Remember you treat them well and you will get the same in return.

We went to Don Pepe on weekday lunch, because they have their own parking lot, that saves us from hunting for street parking. Even then, we were the 3rd last spot in the lot.
At the entrance its a huge hallway with lots of sitting arrangements. Further inside they have another whole floor for restaurant diners. We got welcomed with some nice warm breads and pepe olive oil. Our server was pretty cut through, read us the long list of specials right away. The food takes a while to arrive, due to the lunch hour rush.
My bronzini was really well cooked, was lots of moisture in it. Despite being bone-in, I enjoyed making my way through the entire fish, it was a lot to eat!! Sadly the sides are boring, a boiled/baked potato, and some broccoli carrots. I did like the broccoli a lot, it had a hint of saltiness, but other were meh! I was surprised to see the fish was such decently priced at $23, was expecting to around $30+.
Overall we had a good meal. We might visit here again, but won’t be that often for quick lunch, since its more of a proper seat and dine place.
Staple in ironbound for steaks and paella. Celebrated my sons birthday here with a mom and son dinner. We had the octopus, escargot, gazpacho for apps. I had the ox tails and my son had the prime off menu fillet.
Today the food was not od his best. I had one of the special starter for today and my arugula was not fresh. Also, another party in the group her meat was a bit stuff.😫
Celebrated my mom's birthday here and they were very accommodating. Everyone loved the food and the service was great!
Very fresh food. HUGE portions. Great, delicious food. We love it here!

One of our favorite places in the world. My mom started taking me here since I was 12 and I now love sharing this experience with my husband. Food is consistently spectacular. Servers are kind and so friendly. Best meal ever!!! Easy parking is a super plus in this area.
