    They sorely disappointed me.

    I haven't eaten there in about 2ish years because, hey, we can't ALWAYS eat Pete's. Idk what in the world has happened, but the service has SEVERELY gone to ____, the food just wasn't the same, and peaking into the kitchen showed me the place was a mess.

    I understand that their employees are UL students, and ______ that is outstanding. However, it took 20 minutes before a waiter came up to the table and greeted us with a "Sup", not kidding. He even came out to us and explained that our food for four was going to have to wait behind a party in the backs order...what? Then the kitchen manager literally flipped out on the cooks and ran outside to go smoke a cig.

    I think it'd be legit if the guy from Restaurant Impossible came and revamped the place, the staff, and the food. JMO


    Sidenote: I couldn't find the thread a year or so ago that everyone was talking about how the softball players worked there or something, so I figured Turb can do some investigation .
    I was there that same night. Fifteen minutes before a server even noticed we were sat, another 10 before the "correct" server could be located.

    It's a shame that my wife and I went there on our first date, or a shame what's happening to the place?


    We haven't been in years (we live in BR now), and last time wasn't the greatest.

    I figured something was up with only a few cars dotting the parking lot, compared to a full parking lot next door at Social Table, Lafonda, and every other place nearby. They need Gordon Ramsey.

    IIRC the ownership changed a few years back. That seems to be around the same time people first started complaining about a decline. I was not impressed on my last two outings there.

    When was the service ever good at Pete's? I can remember being in college and taking our boss (the original parking and transit money thief) to Pete's so he could see why we were always late coming back from lunch at Pete's...if I remember correctly we were 45 minutes late and they kept on screwing up our checks so the boss just paid the whole bill so we could go back to work. But...no one goes to Pete's for the service.

    Inpsections may have changed over the years but 2 Critical Findings require a reinspection within several weeks. Non Critical Findings could be something as simple as an employee drinking in a food prep area and Critical Findings could be failure to maintain refrigeration equipment at proper temperatures creating food hazard risk, employee's not washing hands or failure to properly sanitze work stations or food prep areas. Any Restaurant that continues to have critical findings is a risk to you and your family.
