Fajita Pete's - Wilmette — Restaurant in New Trier Township

The girl who took my order was very friendly. I ordered the carnita fajitas and a Mexican coke. The meat and veggies were pretty good. I will say that rice and beans needed some more flavor. The tortilla's are important to the fajita meal. I do think that my tortillas were undercooked. I've included pictures below. But after taking a bite it was very doughy and the tortilla was too translucent. I am a little disappointed because I've had the family meal before and it was really good. I also did wait around 15 minutes for my takeout meal. So, I am assuming that maybe they were short staffed or had a lot of call-in orders. But again, just slightly disappointed.

Update: The issue did get resolved! I got lunch today from Fajita Pete's and the food was much better. I also got the mixed tortillas. The flour tortillas tasted a lot better and the corn tortilla was DELICIOUS. Thank you Fajita Pete's and Teddy for addressing my concerns. Will definitely be...

Was just in the area and they were doing a soft opening, so I had the opportunity to try it out before they officially open on March 4th.

I ordered the steak and shrimp fajitas and the churros. You get a generous portion of the proteins, as well as the side of rice, chips, salsa, refried beans, and tortillas.

The shrimp were very plump and very flavorful, and the steaks had a great texture and awesome char. It is all complimented well with the addition the veggies and the hand-pressed tortillas. The churros for dessert were also very good, with a satisfying crunch and chew that didn't feel too sweet or too oily.

If there was any real issues, it would be that I would have enjoyed some more veggies, since the small side of vegetables left me a...

Such good food! Staff checked that I had everything I needed in my order before heading out which was very nice & the kind of service that I haven’t experienced in a while.

We were confused by the pick-up because there was a curbside option online, but I ended up going in anyways since the spot was quite small anyways.

We loved the food— the corn tortillas were a 3/5 for us since they were quite thick but also small. I think if they were thinner and a little larger, we would’ve really enjoyed them! The flour tortillas taste homemade as well, the kind where you’d be happy just eating them by itself either rolled up with nothing in it or tearing it apart and eating it piece by piece.

Overall a great little spot with well-deserved...
