Possibly the worst food/service I've ever gone out and paid for. We are local. We've have had Great here, we've had mediocre. This was beyond Horrible! We were stopped when we walked in, told "this is for bar service only, what would you like to drink?" Uhhhh, we just walked in. Don't know yet. "Inside or outside dining?" Outside - we were given a number, quickly decided on a beer and went outside. After about 15 minutes, my husband finally went in to place our food order.
I got the Camita sandwich (pulled pork and BBQ) and salad, my husband got the, always good, fish and chips.
The cook brought out our order, no salad, that's ok, he went back to get it. No condiments, napkins, utensils.... My husband went back to get dressing for the salad. They gave him 1 dressing and 1 sour cream.
The Camita looked like a McDonalds hamburger that might have been run over by a car. Does that sandwich look like anything you would be excited to eat? There was 2 tablespoons of meat. The flavor was good, but tasted old with soggy cilantro...
We LOVE Pete's beer battered fries, they are wonderful and a special treat...WTH??? Where are the awesome beer battered fries????? These were nothing more than out of a cash N carry bag.
The fish was not the same standard that we have had in the past, large filets, beautifully battered, cooked to perfection. They were little chunks just shy of not being fully cooked. We had to find the vinegar, and we never did see any tarter. Who wants fish without tarter?
The beers were good. Never did see a waitress after we were stopped at the front door and accosted for our drink order. Guess we will be hitting Carnation Cafe or Blue Heron for friday night drinks and close to home dinner out. We always look forward to our Friday nights. This was so bad that I don't see us going back for anything other than a...
Read moreWe stopped in to Pete's for lunch and had the classic burger and fries. Pete's knocked it out of the park with this burger. The beef patty was big and juicy, surrounded on all sides by a generous helping of veggies (tomatoes, red onions, lettuce), pickles, thick cut bacon, and the right amount of sauce. This was all topped with a fresh briosch style bun. The fries were delicious, thick cut, with a light breading. They were a golden color which tells me Pete keeps his oil clean and fresh. The waitress was super helpful, making sure we had everything we needed at our outdoor seating. We had not been to a restaurant since the Covid 19 restrictions so were a little nervous. Her friendly and laid back attitude put us at ease. Definitely check out Pete's if you're in Carnation, hungry for a bite or to imbibe on a cold beverage. We would love to...
Read moreReally good food, cold and hot specialty drinks, excellent service, beautiful beer garden (with misters and umbrellas in the summer and heaters and tents in the winter), kid friendly until 9pm, and great, laid-back, come-as-you-are ambience make Pete's a destination for many visitors from near and far.
