I was able to pick up a quick bite for under $10 and dinner options were less than $20. I ordered a chicken taco and a vegetarian taco and both were absolutely delicious. I loved the outdoor setting and will definitely be back.

Absolutely incredible experience! Pepe’s Taco Truck in Michigan City, Indiana deserves all the love. Pepe himself was an absolute kind soul—so warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. He didn’t just take care of us; he went above and beyond for our pup and our daughter too. The food was phenomenal, the service was outstanding, and the entire evening just felt special. We left full, happy, and grateful. This spot has officially become our Friday night dinner ritual. Thank you, Pepe, for making tonight truly amazing!

I am so glad we did not have time for dinner before an event at the theater. The food at Pepe’s is amazing! We will definitely be coming back.

Pepe’s at the Dunes Summer Theatre is great! My favorite is the fabulous chicken quesadilla. The setting for his food truck is gorgeous - it is perfect for a meal before or after a show - and well worth stopping by even if you aren’t seeing a show.
