Pizza Pete’s — Restaurant in Cudahy

I have to hand it to the folks at Pizza Pete's. You might not expect it, given their humble location, but there's so much that they do RIGHT. I spoke with the cook, Isaiah, and the delivery driver, Zion, while I waited for my order and asked them about their food and their processes. They make their dough and sauce on-site daily, they hand slice all their vegetables (even the mushrooms!), they season things according to their own recipes, and they make everything to order. I'm not sure why, but I expected frozen dough, premixed sauce, dry boxed sausage "product," and cheapo cheese, among other common shortcuts. Wow, they proved me wrong!! I have attached a photo of my pizza, but I want to be clear that I ASKED Isaiah to leave it in the oven for an extra 3-4 minutes. That's because I prefer a somewhat well-done pie. It's notable that they'll give you choices like that. I should mention that they do have a few tables on-site, presumably for the "pizza-by-the-slice" crowd - but you shouldn't expect the ambiance of a true dine-in Italian restaurant. That's not who they are, and it's not who they try to be (if it's a romantic night out you're looking for, there are other nearby options). This is a carryout and delivery place with truly good house-made pizza. So, if you want a carryout pizza from a unique non-chain restaurant, give Pizza Pete's a try. Their food competes well with other...

I usually have ordered from this place often, I absolutely love supporting small businesses. However of recent I called to mention a problem with my order. I order a 2 liter that I never received (this has happened before but I thought nothing of it that time), my pizza was on the burnt side and completely a mess. Also the cheese wonton sticks were unraveled and one unedible with a gaping hole in it. I called and spoke to someone last week was told I get a call back. The only "call back" I received was to tell me the owner will be notified about this and that I would get a call Thursday-Friday. I called yesterday and was told I they would notify him yet again.....no response. So I called just now and apparently the person told me they were moping the floor and cannot help me...I asked can you grab someone that can and I was hung up on. I spent $40 on food i did not eat and a beverage i never recieved. I will NEVER order from this place again and I will recommend people against it in the future too. Beyond disappointing from a place I usually loved...

My husband ordered two pizzas, an order of mozzarella sticks, and an order of cheese garlic bread for delivery. Fifteen minutes after the pizza was to be delivered my husband called and the gentleman said they don't deliver, and we had to pick it up. It took a couple of days, but the manager did call my husband to apologize for the inconvenience and talk it out. Sounds like the manager thought there was a box for delivery unchecked on the website, but it turns out it wasn't. We appreciated the phone call.

The mozzarella sticks were a bit plain, and the cheese garlic bread had many spices- not your typical cheesy garlic bread flavor. I'm surprised they both didn't come with marinara sauce for dipping. The pizza was great! I'd recommend sticking to the pizza when...
