Wow- what can I say about my personal visits (and there are many) to the Smoked Pepper? Well, it had converted a tomato-hater into a tomato-worshiper, opened up many of my closest family members to the very best flavorful and fresh Mexican food, and given me a great sense of ease and happiness as a self-proclaimed food fanatic! And if... more

The best Mexican food in the area, but there is not allot of competition. The margaritas here are excellent, but a little on the pricey side. Service is usually great (there was one exception, but it hasn't happend again since)and the food is always hot and tasty. The only downside is the size of the restaurant. It is very small... more

We absolutely love this popular restaurant and go every time we're in town. Sometimes you have to wait a few minutes(20min-tops) for a table, but it is worth the wait. The food is very good, as are the margaritas. It's the best mexican restaurant we've every been to, and we've been to quite a few. Cant wait to go again!!!!!!... more

This place used to have outstanding bang for your buck Americanized Mexican food. It was a fun place to hang out, have some drinks, and the food was quite good. The "new" ownership (it's been under them for a few years now), raised prices, changed some of the drinks, and changed the chips. One of the owners (wife maybe?) is... more

My girlfriend, my five-year-old son and I finally got a chance to try the Smoked Pepper. It wasn't easy, because they seem to open and close whenever they feel like it. Anyway, we were the only ones there, and it was about 3 in the afternoon. The waitress gave us some chips and we ordered our drinks. I was going... more

I went to the Smoked Pepper because I heard it was a great Mexican restaurant. I was very disappointed. We ordered out because we were in a hurry. They never told me on the phone that they didn't have one of the items I ordered. The prices were outrageous but we had never eaten there so we didn't know if... more

Great find

We spent a night in Plattsburgh on the way to Montreal and were happy to find this great Mexican restaurant after walking around the downtown. The chicken mole enchilada was great and they had a very nice children's menu to please my daughter. The restaurant is small, so we did have to wait a little while to be seated. Go... more

My Favorite Restaurant in Plattsburgh!! 1st let me say that I love Mexican food. Wherever I travel, I am always looking for good Mexican food. When I find a place with better than average food and service, I come back. I have been coming back here since I have been living here (2004). The food is great, prices are reasonable... more
