- Christina DonatoMay 17, 2014Fairly decent food. I haven't had anything spectacular but everything is good. Very nice. Attentive staff. The margaritas are very typical, most (except the Skinny) overdoing the sweet and sour mix.
F.r. PachecoFebruary 18, 2016The Sopitos, Chile Relleno and Enchiladas are my all time favorite. Our server, Jesus, was very professional and on top of everything. Excellent experience overall, looking forward to next visit.
Penni LightOctober 19, 2018The food is just okay these days. This was my absolute favorite restaurant growing up and for the first 30 or so years it was open, but these days it just doesn’t have magical Pedro’s “IT” factor.
neo23May 3, 2013Don't waste your hard earned cash on the carnitas. $14 for two lousy carnitas with beans and rice? The local food truck down my old hood has the best carnitas tacos for $1 each!
Michael G.February 27, 2019A Mexican restaurant for American tastes. Very generous with the wine pours. Skirt steak salad was smaller than expected but good.
If you go in the middle of the day, you get the place to yourself. Happy hour is packed! The food is always good and the staff is attentive!
Alex KremerAugust 8, 2014Come here after a long day of work, order a pitcher of margs and some quesadillas, and unwind.
L GDecember 1, 2013Look around at all the dishes first for brunch, then prioritize what you want first! Everything is delicious!
Giridhar Reddy NalmarAugust 5, 2014Awesome food, good menu for veggies like me, spacious restaurant.
Jason BerrangJuly 4, 2012Large dining area. Don't judge how full the place may be by just the parking lot. Most of the time there is no wait.
Not a bad vibe. The salsa is good. Enchiladas are also worth a try.
I could make a meal of their guacamole, salsa, and chips. Unfortunately, everything else I've ever had here is bland, and requires a dose of salsa to spruce up.
A♥h♡ly ToledoApril 27, 2012Their salsa alone makes me wanna go back :) add some chips and margarita - i am good!
Damon GrantDecember 21, 2012Pitchers of margaritas for $17, and a free all you can eat happy hour buffet.
Enchilada Chipotle for the win! And a huge restaurant. Great for large groups.
Shikamaru NaraAugust 22, 2014Service is extremely slow. Servers do not keep up with the tables. Never checked in on us or refilled water without one of us asking. Servers need to be retrained because it wasn't that busy to forget

- Melanie B.December 6, 2010Free food for Happy Hour...the chicken wings were gross. I stuck with chips and salsa!
Alejandro RojoNovember 10, 2017If you have eaten REAL Mexican food, it's going to be pretty average. Good for groups, business meals. Nice Guacamole.

"Beautiful stadium for football and great food options. If you don't tailgate or do sit down at a restaurant, try the seafood concession. Tasty shrimp rolls and chowder to chase the beer."
