Frozen Margarita.  Two straw share.
Holly H.

The salsa was too tomatoey base. Not the chunks but it had a paste flavor to it. Not a fan. The chips were good. The Margarita was not bad, did get a brain freeze; I think their house is only frozen. Had a steak and chicken taco. Not bad! Did not care for the beans and liked the rice, not over flavored or dry! I will try it again. A small place, clean and simple inside. I would say that having two different radios playing at the same time is a bit much. Pick on and leave the other one off. The gal that took my order was super nice! I'll give it another chance. A bit $$

3.5 stars overall. Fajita Pete's is a chain restaurant that has franchise locations in some U.S. states. This particular location in the North Hills of Pittsburgh recently opened. This evening, my husband and I visited this restaurant to order takeout. The restaurant had several tables in a small space. As I stood in line at the cash register, I repeatedly had to move out of the way so that employees could walk past and bring food to the other customers at the tables. Our cashier was smiley and spoke nicely to us. The menu listed foods such as fajitas (e.g., chicken, carnitas/pork, beef, shrimp, veggie, and mixed), burritos, flautas, tacos, quesadillas, salads, tortilla chips with queso and quacamole, and churros. This restaurant also serves alcoholic beverages such as beers and margaritas. My husband and I ordered our food. The cashier could not get her credit-card machine to work, but she got a different machine to accept our payment. She told us that our wait would be about 15 minutes. I did not time our wait, but it was much longer. My husband and I ate our foods at home. Here are our reviews for the foods: Chicken fajitas - 3.5 stars - My husband ate this entree. He said that he was glad that he tried it and that it was filling, but he would not order it again soon. He said that because the business has "fajita" in its name, then it should make higher-quality fajitas. He liked the side of beans, and he described the rice as OK. Chicken quesadilla - 3.5 stars - My quesadilla was cut into four pieces. One of the pieces contained almost no chicken. A good amount of cheese was included in all of the pieces. The ingredients were fresh. I liked this quesadilla, but I expected it to taste better. My beans did not look appetizing, but they tasted good. The rice tasted OK, and I took a few bites of it. Queso - 4 stars - This queso dip was gooey and tasted very good. The accompanying bag of chips was sufficient. Guacamole - 3 stars - This guacamole had an average quality and flavor.

Can I just say they have to go margaritas!!
Kathryn F.

Very small restaurant seats less than 20 customers. I was surprised by the price point ($18 for shrimp fajitas). I had a 1 person serving - shrimp fajitas, 4 wraps, double rice, and delicious toppings that included really good guacamole. It made 3 large fajitas. I have never tasted a wrap like this one. Doughy, but light served warmed. Did I mention to go margaritas? I ordered chips and queso. Chose the medium queso came with a tiny bag of chips. There is a rewards program. Did I mention to go margarita sold from a glass to a gallon size!? I definitely think I will be back.

Tacos al carbon, (was)

Tacos al carbon, and chicken fajitas for a high protein post workout meal! I dip the chips in the beans, salsa for the tacos. Sorry about the pic, but it usually doesn't make it home.

Chicken and steak fajitas, delicious rice and beans, awesome queso and Margs!!

This place is awesome!! So happy to see Texas brought to Pittsburgh! The food is tremendous - Tex Mex with chicken, steak and shrimp fajitas, flautas, queso, guacamole, chips and salsa all made fresh in house. The homemade tortillas are the bomb!! Loved the bustling vibe and met the owners Brittany and Chris - so nice!! The place was packed and the service was still great. Hard to believe it just opened. The best part - the premium in the rocks margarita! And incredible frozen margaritas that you can even get to go!! Get here fast - so happy it's close to my house. I'll be a frequent customer!

Actually grilled chicken breast for the fajitas! Can't wait to try the beef next time.

Y'all! We just moved here from Houston TX over a month ago and have tried and tried to find legit Tex-mex and NO ONE has it. It's all gross stewed chicken. By some miracle we stumbled upon Fajita Pete's and stopped in with low expectations. To our disbelief the chicken was actually grilled and so good! Delicious homemade tortillas and guacamole. Awesome sides. My kids even said they wanted to cry that we finally found a spot. It is seriously that good. Price is totally average for good Tex-Mex. I'd even pay more but don't tell them that. This place is a gem!

Fresh tortillas, churros, and beef/chicken fajitas for two (includes rice, beans, & toppings)

It was pretty much what I expected It looks like a 5/10 and assumed it was going to be a soft 6 but a few things surprised me so its a strong 6. The math works The water. Do not get it.

Corned beef was good, not great, tad bit dry and was lacking in the filled department. When I think of a Reuben I think of the ones in grew up loving from the jewish delis in jersey which are packed to the brim. Also on BreadWorks which is always an elite choice The burger. Now that was a pleasant surprise. Cooked well, sauce was good and the pastrami was above average. But "topped" with pastrami means 3-4 pieces it seems Habanero mayo I used for dipping fucking awesome. Sweet potato fries also awesome I wasn't disappointed in this because it's less than a 10min drive for me. I would not drive 15+ minutes for this. Nothing will blow your mind but nothing will disappoint. Just a very slightly above average meal that if you're local to the area will be a good spot Inside I really liked as well. Little dark, good bar area and TVs playing the games with decent amount of seating

We went on a Tuesday, and it was $1 wing night... can honestly say, one of the best spots I have had wings in a long time- wings were cooked to a crisp perfection and the flavor was great.

Lots of people in the bar who know each other but were open to conversation with us newbies. They do have happy hour, and TVs would be a good spot to grab a cold one and watch the game!

The bar had high tops surrounding it and there's also a back room of tables. The bathroom was clean, stocked with soap & paper towels. The green Miller Lite was exactly as advertised and the $10 breakfast buffet of eggs, sausage gravy & biscuits, fruit, and hashbrowns was also as expected. Definitely worth a stop in!
