" I can't say enough good things about Pete's! The cheeseburgers are phenomenal and the shakes are creamy. A little more seating would be ideal since it gets busy fast. Overall, I am really pleased with my experience here, from the quality of the food to the friendly service. A must-try if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pete's Red Hots is such a gem! I was blown away by the quality of their food and how quickly they get your order out. I had the beef sandwich which had the perfect tenderness and flavor — I don’t think I've tasted better in Chicago. I wouldn't call it a great atmosphere since seating is limited and can feel a bit chaotic, but it adds to the nostalgic vibe. If you're in a hurry but want quality food, definitely swing by! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! That's the first word that comes to mind after my experience at Pete's. The quality of food was top-notch; I tried their gyro and it was honestly one of the best I've ever tasted. The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Pricing is reasonable for the portion sizes. I’d happily go back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, I hosted a small family gathering and decided to order from Pete's for the first time. They did not disappoint! The food was delivered hot and fresh, and everyone loved the gyros. The only downside was a slight mix-up with one order—nothing major, but something to note. I’d happily order from here again knowing the quality! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm not sure how this place gets such good reviews. My gyro was okay, a bit dry, and the fries were not as fresh as I'd hoped. The atmosphere could also use some work; it felt very cramped. On a positive note, the staff was friendly and accommodating. I may consider giving it another shot, but I had higher expectations after all the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazingly tasty! We tried several menu items and were delighted with all of them. The Italian beef, in particular, was phenomenal — truly worthy of its reputation. The fries were hot and seasoned just right. Friendly staff helped make our visit enjoyable, even during a peak time. I’ll certainly be recommending Pete's to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" You really can’t go wrong with Pete’s! Their double cheeseburger is phenomenal—juicy, flavorful, and everything you want in a burger. The only downside is that the seating can be a bit tight during busy times. Overall, a wonderful spot for classic American fast food done right. I find myself craving their food often!
