" This place is one of those charming spots that you don't want to miss when you're in the area. The breakfast menu is outstanding. I had the huevos rancheros, and it was served with fresh tortillas that were hand-made. The large portions left me feeling incredibly satisfied. It's a small space, but the atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it easy to lose track of time here. Don't pass on this when you're in Huntington! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been hearing good things about Pete's Mexican Food, so I finally decided to check it out. I ordered the super deluxe burrito, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The flavors were incredible, though I wished it were a bit spicier for my taste. The chips and salsa on the side were generous and fresh. I did feel the service was a bit slow, but the staff was polite and friendly. Overall, a satisfying meal in a quaint setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was staying nearby and ended up at Pete's several times during my visit! I particularly enjoyed the carnitas tacos—so flavorful and tender! The staff was always accommodating and didn't hesitate to recommend their favorites. I loved eating outside on the patio with my friends. The atmosphere suited our beachside vibe perfectly. Definitely will return whenever I’m in Huntington Beach! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered Pete's last month and I keep coming back for their carne asada fries! The staff is always friendly and the food is consistently delicious. The place might be small, but it has a great vibe. I appreciate that they use fresh ingredients to craft their dishes. Although parking is a bit tricky, the food is well worth it. Can't recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pete's Mexican Food while on vacation, and it quickly became my favorite spot. The tacos were delicious but what stood out was their fresh chips paired with homemade salsa. The staff was so welcoming, adding a family touch to the whole experience. I'm already planning my return visit next time I'm in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" I work in the area and have been coming to Pete's for years. They never fail to impress with their consistency in taste and service. My go-to is always the sopes, which are packed with flavor. It's like a little slice of Mexican culture every time I visit. A perfect lunch spot if you're looking for something delicious and fulfilling! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a fan of authentic Mexican food, and I had heard fantastic things about this spot. However, my last visit was quite disappointing. The food was overcooked and the service rather inattentive. For the price I paid, I expected much more in terms of both flavor and service quality. Sadly, I won’t be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)
