My Experiences at Black Pepper Steakhouse

I have eaten at Black Pepper numerous times over the past few years. And I have tried many things on the menu including several of the steaks, the pork tenderloin, the crusted salmon, the St. Louis ribs and the surf and turf.

In my experience, everything I have tried was well-prepared to order and the food has been consistently good. And they sometimes have live music at night.

Recently I went to Black Pepper for lunch with a friend. He had the St. Louis ribs and they were very meaty and he said they were very tasty and tender. And I had the pork tenderloin that was also very good. The cost for the two of us including tip was 83,000 pesos.
