Ok so I start this Google review off by saying it's November 28th of 2017 and 6:11 a.m. I showed up at 5: 56 am thinking they open at 5 but as you can see from the picture that I took they open at 6 a.m. the hours change but Google was not notified the lights were not on the grill was not started and anybody that cooks or has worked for a restaurant knows that you need a minimum of 30 minutes to fire up those grills and get food pulled from the freezer if it was prepped last night or if you're going to prep it that morning now I want to make it known that I strongly support small business owners and do not support big corpora I try to put my money into small businesses as much as I can had saying that whoever the manager is at this restaurant Don Pedro's needs to be fired you're not there at 5:30 or 5:45 to fire up those grills and have those lights on have everything prepped and ready your costing a business money as a previous manager of a business and assistant manager of another one as well as taking classes in college for business management I would fire your ass on the spot also in the past when I've ordered chicken from there my woman got the chicken Raw on the inside did not give a bad Google review as like I said I like to support small business owners now this business will not receive any more of my money I will no longer shop at this business thank you Don Pedro's for putting a bad taste in my mouth I'll take my money down the...
Read moreI'll go through this in order of: food, service, dining area and then price.
The food is variable from "fine" to "good". The soft tacos are good, especially the beef cheek but the breakfast burrito is flavorless mush. The tamales are somewhere between, but the takeaway here is that you're not likely to complain about the food any more than you're likely to rave about how good it is either.
The service again is variable depending on who you get, but a chain is only as strong as its weakest link and on more than one occasion I have received the completely wrong order where I ordered a water and a breakfast burrito and instead, I was given a Coca Cola and a regular burrito. If you are taking orders, you need to have a conversational level of the language you're serving in and unfortunately that is not the case.
The dining area is sparse and dated but entirely functional. No visible dirt or grime for what I could see. It's bare bones but you don't come here for a candle-lit dinner and I don't have any complaints.
The price is fair. It's a classic case of American quantity over quality. You're not going to be hungry afterwards, and you're also not going to break the bank. The breakfast burrito was $7 and you could probably throw that thing through a window.
In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to visit, but if you're hungry and in the area it'll do the job, but not much...
Read moreDefinitely a hole in the wall place. I thought the drive thru was setup very strangely. I normally prefer the hole in the wall places. They tend to have some of the best food.
I got myself the birria plate and my ex chose Carne asada tacos. My plate was a mess that's for sure, grease leaking all over the place. The meat had a lot of chunks of fat etc in it but the flavor was decent. The refried beans looked a bit extra on the milky colored side. The rice did not look like Mexican rice to me. It looked like a bag of pre cooked rice with peas and carrots that I used to order for a buffet thing I ran years ago once a week. As you can guess the flavor was not Mexican and it tasted just like the bagged stuff.
My ex however loved her tacos and they smelled good. Only con would be the abundance of onion placed on them.
The red salsa was pretty good, has a bit of a kick. The green salsa was ok and could use some more kick.
I am torn between 2 and 3 stars. Because of the recommendations by people I will try one more time and something completely different and then decide if it's a place worth my returns and a higher star. I have to find my favorite local Mexican restaurant soon now that I'm moved to a new...
