Pedro's — Restaurant in New York

Food was very good. Stopped in for a small bite. Only ordered a few appetizers coca cola and sangria. The sangria was very good. The sweet fried plantains with shrimp and cheese was awesomely delicious. The $10 guacamole and chips was soso except for the chips were super soggy and soft and the portion of guacamole was so small I would recommend it only for one person not for sharing. The empanadas were so light and airy the first bite was all air/bread and not meat. Too bad they should charge more and give more. For $65 3 appetizers and 2 drinks was not really worth it. Service was good and friendly. They asked for vaccination cards and we're patient with us while we searched for our cards on the Ny app. Luckily we found our proof of vaccination otherwise we would have been denied service. If you don't have a vaccination card you will starve to death. You are better off crossing the southern border instead of eating without a vaccine card in a NYC restaurants it's easier. Nothing makes sense anymore. I feel bad for businesses that are still open because they are forced to walk on hot coals barefoot and backwards naked through a cornfield. I would recommend this restaurant. Pedro's is a good Mexican restaurant. Everything tasted good but a bit cheap on the portion sizes. The sangria tasted very nice and fresh and potent. The empanadas were tasty but skimpy lacking substance the filling inside was not enough. The fried sweet banana was very delicious my favorite dish today. The decor of the restaurant seemed nice and original. The restaurant is a bit small but nice and clean looking. The employees were good and professional. the area is gentrified and a bit pricey. Come hungry and leave happy. Try everything it is good and fresh. Everything that was ordered came and tasted well. Outdoor and indoor seating is available. Parking is terrible in the...

Genuinely the worst restaurant I've ever been to. The food was old, the service was non-existant and the manager or owner was rude.

To give context, when we got there immediately we felt uncomfortable because the servers had rude expressions, but we figured they were overworked and tried not to take it personal. However, once seated we were asked for our orders and then ignored for the rest of the time. We had to literally remind the staff three times of what we ordered (which would be understandable if they weren't also rude or ignoring our table). The other parties in which got there after us (with the same amount of people) were prioritized and checked up on, but our table was not (mind you there were only three tables inside). Not only that, but as we were eating a homeless man came into this small room and started begging us for money. The manager just sat outside watching. Lastly, when we simply asked the server to reduce one plate because the food was old and gross (it had a bug, the rice was hard and the chicken was undercooked and flavorless), the server said she will give us a new recipe, came back without it and tried to make us pay before deducting the food. We had to keep telling her we wanted a new recipt first. Once we paid the manager stood sitting outside giving us dirty looks. Only one server tried to help us and she wasn't even our server or the manager. She was the only one that spoke to us like actual people. I hope she finds a better place to work because despite it not being her doing, she listened to our concerns and tried to understand us as well as give context.

For the quality of the service and food NOT WORTH A DIME. I would never recommend...

I visited Pedro's after having fun with friends at Beat the Bomb. We worked up an appetite and Pedro's was the perfect place!

We did not make reservations, but the staff is very friendly and understanding. We were able to get a table for a group of 7 in under 30 minutes.

I ordered the birria tacos. Other's around my table ordered the tilapia tacos, the steak with beans and rice, and the empanadas. We also shared calamari and nachos. For dessert, we had churros with ice cream and sweet plantains with ice cream. I would recommend EVERYTHING but the sweet plantains with ice cream. The ice cream was a hit, the sweet plantain not so much.

The restaurant also accommodated two of my vegan friends. So vegan lovers are also welcome!

Not only is the food great but the setting is awesome. There's music playing in the background while you eat/ The music is soft enough for you to speak with everyone at your table and loud enough for you to break into karaoke and sing along with everyone at the restaurant (which actually happened with us).

At the end of our stay, we were able to write messages on currency and staple it to a wall display of messages written on the currency.

I say this to say that I did more than just eat, I had an experience!

It was a great night and I would recommend anyone who loves authentic Mexican food to visit when they're...
