Good food for good prices, good atmosphere, and the staff here are always friendly! This is a great place to swing by and grab something to eat if you're on central campus. If you're in a hurry, they've got online ordering!

Food is delicious. They do upcharge for more than I would like.
The main customers are college students, so the vibes can be a tad immature.

Delicious Mexican food. Would recommend the Baja fish burrito and made fresh to order. The wheelchair entry way is long but it works!

I am from Denver so have been to the original Illegal Pete's years ago and I was not impressed with this one. I went around 645pm on a Monday and most of the meats were at the bottom of the barrel, the veggies looked old, and it was incredibly slow.

The service was not much to speak of, there seemed to be a lack of interest from the employees. I originally ordered two items and noticed they had not even started on one of them when I was paying, so I just cancelled it off the order.

There are so many Taco Trucks in the area that serve freshsr Mexican food for less cost, I recommend going to any one of those before Illegal Pete's.

Not recommended.

We visited on a Thursday night not realizing it turned into a crazy college bar at night. The two servers behind the downstairs bar were amazing! They warned us to stay downstairs. Lol they were both amazing and on top of everything. We never waited for a beer even though they were crazy busy. It was Jan 15, 26, give those two a raise

Placed an order at the wrong location in error and their listed number would not tletme connect to the store staff, instead hanging up and ending the call. I tried several of the Ai options but it ends the call instead of connecting.

Once upon time this place was good. Quality of food has gone way down hill. Theres no flavor to anything. I ordered a chicken taco the chicken was so overcooked it was hard. The tortilla was awful. I guess this is a place for the drunks only.

Just stopped by to grab a quick drink and ended up having a great time! I’d never seen Jacob here before, but he was fantastic, super friendly, attentive, and really knew what he was doing behind the bar. He made sure our drinks were perfect and checked in just the right amount without being overbearing. The atmosphere was relaxed, the music was good, and the service made the whole experience even better. Definitely coming back soon — Jacob really elevated the night!

Had some margs made by the bartender Jacob upstairs and asked to make it fun and he didn’t disappoint!
