" Illegal Pete's has always been a staple in my diet for almost a decade. I'm thrilled to see the place remodeled but equally reassured when the food doesn't disappoint. The chicken burrito is comforting, the prices are reasonable, and the staff has always been friendly. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last week, I visited Illegal Pete's for the first time and was really excited. However, my experience was just okay. The burrito I got was a bit bland, lacking the spices I expected from a Mexican place. The service was friendly but slower than I anticipated, especially during lunch. I might give it another shot, but I'm not rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wouldn’t go to Illegal Pete’s with high expectations and you'd probably enjoy it. The atmosphere is casual and fun but I found the food lacking seasoning. I appreciate the mix of ingredients, which is a nice little touch. If you’re hungry and looking for a low-key spot, this place might suit you. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a regular customer of Illegal Pete's, I've come to expect some really delicious food. My boyfriend and I ordered their quesadilla and burrito. What was once our favorite meal became a lift of heartbreak as we found it bland and dry. I'm not sure what happened, but I was very disappointed. Maybe it was just an off day for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Illegal Pete's wasn't great. The service was happy and fast, but my food was cold and tasteless. After all the hype, I left feeling disappointed. I think they need to improve on food quality greatly. Cleaning and atmosphere were good, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Illegal Pete’s last weekend, and while the bartenders were amazing, the food didn’t quite live up to my memories. The flavors seemed muted compared to visits in the past. The new renovations are lovely, and the vibe is enjoyable. I might return for drinks but might skip the food next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the atmosphere at Illegal Pete's is vibrant and fun, I have to say my meal was underwhelming. The burrito I ordered was filled with mostly rice and not enough protein. It was also cold. I find it hard to recommend this place when it seems like they are cutting corners on quality. Service was okay, but I think they can do better. " (*Curated Review*)
