News Flash! Pepins is a far cry from traditional Spanish cuisine and somehow, someone thought that they would classify it as "Basque Cuisine" also. I guess it sounds good to throw that in. Me thinks not! The cuisine has nothing to do with Basque cuisine. The Spanish cuisine is very much Americanized. Since most people on this planet have not traveled to Pais Basco (Basque Country, located in the most northern, central region of Spain and partly in France) the owners of Pepins must think that the consumer will take their word for it. Pepins food is not "terrible", but it's not Spanish, and it's definitely not Basque! The service was atrocious when we went. The Paella, was hardly a paella. The garlic shrimp was pretty good though. And what's up with the Salsa dancing in a "Spanish" restaurant. Weird.
i'm giving it an extra star because I'm nice guy. If I told actually thought, Yelp would have to come up with a separate rating scale.
