Tito & Pep Now Offering Lunch; Brunch Arriving on New Year’s Day

Dec 12, 20181 min read

Just over a month after opening, midtown restaurant Tito & Pep has expanded beyond their dinner-only hours to offer lunch.

Based on how they’ve already proven their dinner service as exceptional, we’re excited to see this roll out.

While a handful of dinner menu items are also on the lunch menu, some of the stand-out components make an appearance in the new lunch items.

If you enjoyed the dinner menu’s Grilled Shrimp with masa dumplings, order the Southwest-meets-Northeast Masa Battered Shrimp with fries, charred jalapeño tartar, and slaw.

If you loved the salsa macha and avocado on the Grilled Octopus appetizer, try them on the T&P Burger, which also includes roasted garlic aioli.

If you want to try the Queso Fundido in a meal form, try the Crunchy Señorita with queso menonita, chorizo, mushrooms, and fried egg.

“Running this kitchen has been a labor of love, but the numbers just aren’t adding up anymore, and as parents, we have to make the hard choice to step back and take care of what matters most at home.”
