Reviews

I expected an American diner and got into a Thai kinda restaurant serving American food.
Food was ok but a good Chick Fill A is better for same price.
I do not recommend except if you like that kind of food.


Philly cheese steak was dry.
Thai milk tea smelled like chemicals.
At lease our waiter was nice


My partner and I stopped by Pete’s shortly before eight in the morning.
The staff was kind and the atmosphere had a unique diner feel.
I got thai tea to drink and we shared the steak and egg plate with home fries and buttered toast.
The thai tea was perfect, but the steak was thin and not good.
The eggs, home fries, and toast were just fine.
It is only marginally better than Waffle House and more pricey, so we will not be returning and only recommend for lack of a better option.
