Here's an interesting marquee for Pepe's. Not sure if it's an
old or new sign. The guess here is that its new.

The Tacos Aztecas in Santa Fe Springs features a marquee with
a large rounded arrow pointing the way into the eating area. This place
is open 25 hours a day. And yes, you are now entering the Twilight Zone.
Though these signs may still be somewhat common, it's a good example
of the eye catching signage that helped business survive through the years.

Check out Romero's Restaurant if you're hungry for a good Mexican
food meal. The sign outside is classic in its own right too.
UPDATE : Romero's has been replaced by a new business called Josie's. Fortunately, Josie's reused the sign and just changed the name.
