Cuban Pete's is a lively restaurant with a fun island theme and pretty decor. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff praised for their kindness. Customers can bring their own wine or rum, making it a BYOB spot. The food is a highlight, featuring dishes like fish stew, seafood paella, whole fried fish with coconut rice and tostone, and lechon asado, which is tender and flavorful. The pickled red onions are a recommended addition to any meal. Many guests love the vibrant atmosphere, especially when sitting outside, which feels like a courtyard of a house, or enjoying the indoor decor. The vibe is always lively, and the outdoor seating is especially nice in warm weather. The restaurant is especially popular for celebrations, such as birthdays, where staff sing happy birthday and create a festive mood. While the food generally impresses, some diners have experienced dry chicken or appreciated the shredded beef dish, which many find delicious. Overall, Cuban Pete's offers a great place for flavorful Cuban food in a friendly, energetic environment, especially if visitors take advantage of the outdoor seating or bring their own drinks.
