Came out of retirement for this review. $50 for two colossal burgers ( which had a little pastrami, lettuce tomato's, cheese mind you the cheese is 2.50 a slice ... a thin ass meat patty and condiments of course. I upgraded one fry to chili cheese fries which was an additional 3.75) two regular drinks. Now yall look at the photos . They had us messed up with the amount of pastrami on these burgers and the patty was thin asf. Yea we stopped coming here and now i remember why. NEVER AGAIN. Better off going to the Habit like we started to do and they cheaper. Chili cheese fries were tasteless and the chili was nasty. Waste of money. read more

Im sorry, this place is just not good. I'm a French fries gal, if the fries are not good, then automatically the rest of the menu isn't either. Came here because I was craving french fries.... I was extremely disappointed. The fries tasted like they were previously frozen, I could taste the freezer if that makes sense lol. I think they were thrown in the microwave to defrost. Absolutely disgusting. I will NOT be returning. read more

Went by and grabbed another DBL Cheese Burger and a Fried Tortilla Chicken Salad. Drive through service was professional and helpful. The Burger was delish. The Tortilla Chicken Salad was freshly prepared with moist succulent tender Chicken pieces with flavorful ingredients. Gratitude and give thanks to Mr. Pete's Burgers and Staff for yet another great meal experience. See you soon. read more

I've never had the food here, but I just had a sundae for dessert. That chocolate sundae was reminiscent of a junior flip or mama flip from when I was a kid Iykyk. Absolutely delicious. Up there with Peggy Sues sundae on the way to Vegas. read more

The Prices are insane!!!!! A pastrami breakfast burrito is $24!!!!! And I just paid almost 13.50 for 3 small pancakes!!! I thought for sure that when they told me the price of the pancakes it was gonna be some huge pancakes! But no, they were the size of a normal pancake. I even chose this place over McDonald's cause I thought McDonalds was gonna price gauge me, and o love mcpancakes! These aren't even fluffy, they feel dry and chewy. These thing about me is that I never speak up or return anything. So here I am enjoying my $13.25 pancakes just so I feel like Mr. Pete himself didn't have his way with me SMFH! Ambiance is ok, it's ur typical burger joint, but I won't be going back, I just call another burger joint near me "Jim's Burger" and they sell their order of 3 pancakes for $9 plus tax so that's more reasonable. read more

I feel bad because I hate writing a bad review on the spot I've been coming to since high school. Honestly the prices are insane I can't even believe it . I spent over $100 dollars for 5 burgers when I could literally go anywhere else an have paid half of that. I recently seen that they are charging $28 dollars for a pastrami sandwich. I won't be going back an it pains me hope they fix the prices before it's too late . read more

Las Vegas prices. Where is the beef? I will never go back there again. $19 for lettuce and fries.

From the time I've been here the food is good they do as they told when it comes to listening to the customer and there food is actually not to bad the price is a bit up there they need to beeping it down a buck or so lol besides that it's always clean and the customer is good 75% of the time besides that we good read more

48$ For 2 burgers, and 2 Fries, no drinks!!? Whaaaaaat?! For that price, I can eat at a restaurant. The price is not worth the food. Prices are getting insane for what it is. I compared prices with Volcanoes Burgers in Alamitos, and I get charged 32$ for the same food. 17$ difference, geeeesh! read more

Let me go ahead and leave an updated review of much this place is TRASH. Even after giving another try. This place lacks everything that entails running a fast food restaurant. They should really go out of business. They NEVER get there orders correct, always miss items on all MY ORDERS all of them. I'm mind blown how this place is still around. read more

My local Mr Pete's has some really good employees. Some have been there for years! The prices have gone up slightly like other fast food but they're fast and its good; they have never gotten my order wrong. My fave are the breakfast specials, it's so much food, two can share. Took a star off for them not opening right at 7am when there's cars already waiting in the drive through lane. read more

I love the chill cheese fries and fried zucchini from here. I have yet to find another place that has better chilli cheese than Pete does read more

I called this order in because I was having a hood craving, Chili tamale. I seen they had pastrami so I added that on top as well, ik it's fat but I had to satisfy this craving. they have fast service, I pulled up to the drive thru window to pick up my order and added a orange bang (NO ICE) and banana peppers to my order. I am so full and stuffed by this meal and I'm not even finished yet. The chili is so good, it reminds me of my childhood, I added cheese & onions. I wanna add this chili to a burger or fries next time. read more

Decided to try this place for breakfast today because it's so close to our house. Their drive thru always seems busy, so you figure it mist be good. We had a few hours in between soccer games so didn't want to drive anywhere far and this place is so close to home. BAAAAAAAD CHOICE!! It took about 20 minutes just to order. Drive thru was slow as snails. We already had a car behind us. So that was the only reason we stayed. Otherwise, we would have left. We finally ordered a pancake special. Comes with 2 pancakes. Eggs. And sausage. And a mixed omelette. Which Comes with sausage, bacon, and ham, hash browns, and toast. Well. The wait was not worth any of the food. Take a look for yourselves. Pancakes look homeless, like they just Dumped anything in the tray. Omelette looks like it's homeless and on crack. So skimpy. Overall not great. Food was very mediocre at best. The straw on the camels back was after we got our food and before we drove off. A cook came running with the pancake batter dispenser, set in on the dirty kitchen floor to refill it. Then took back to the grill. So gross. NEVER COMING BACK read more

The taquitos are DeliMex frozen taquitos (or identical brand) and a "avocado" sauce , not guacamole! The real problem they are $8.00 for two skinny taquitos w avocado sauce. If I bought the same ingredients at Costco, the cost of two taquitos w sauce is probably $2. I do like their beef dip sandwiches. read more

The overpriced burgers and fries are about the only thing good here anymore. Whatever you order, do not get the pastrami. It's old chewed up minced idk what swimming in grease. read more

It pains me to leave this review. I've been coming to this Pete's for more than 20 years. The food has been good for the most part. The prices were always right. We just came during the week for breakfast. Not a soul in the whole place. It looked a bit dark and dirty, to be honest. The service was fine. But the food? I got served burnt roast and burnt hash browns. I was starving, in a bit of a rush, and the breakfast special is now $10, so I ate some of it. I know they don't want to throw away their profit but how can you serve that to customers?Bacon and Egg Breakfast The whole experience made me REALLY sad. I will not be back. There are a lot of greasy spoons in Downey that haven't done me like this. End of an era. read more

This is what the workers be doing with our food that we eat!! They play with our food and this is why they take forever!

Ordered a pastrami via a referral from a colleague 7/28/23. Meat HARD & DRY; not worth $21.99. I asked to have it dipped, the guy working the register said sure but it wasn't. Either he doesn't understand English or he just CANNOT hear! The female staff with the cute blk & white nails was super friendly. Little ice in my horchata as hot as it is...sigh. Guess folks come here for the burgers & fries cuz the pastrami on this stale bread Sucks! I don't plan to re-visit unless I have Groupon. read more

Food is always pretty good, but their prices are getting out of control. 2 chili cheese fries, 3 burger combos, 4 milkshakes for $92.16. W.T.F. My wife and I had a full blown sit down sushi dinner for less. This is getting ridiculous read more

We order the breakfast burritos there all the time. it's good! But this time, I get there's an egg shortage and we only got mostly potato's in our burritos. Another thing I noticed when I walked in, the COOKS WERE NOT WEARING ANY GLOVES! I saw this dude with a cut on his eyebrow, was preparing an order separating bacon with his bare hands. He did not even wash his greasy hands after. He just wiped his hands onto his dirty apron and went on with separating the pancakes on a takeout order. Disgusting. read more

A friend mentioned burritos from Mr. Pete's Burgers as being pretty good. Before a roadtrip to the Sequoias, I decided to treat my little family to some breakfast. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of pros: * affordable fast food * large portions * drive-thru available during COVID era (masks required at window) * plenty of napkins provided But the food just wasn't that good. We ordered three different breakfast burritos. Talk about blah. Of course we spiced it up a bit at home... even with the salsa they gave us. - bacon burrito $8.29 - egg burrito $7.59 - chorizo burrito $8.59 Plastic accepted. Still just not a fan of Mr. Pete's. read more

Best chili cheese fries .. Made my fries with nachos cheese and shredded cheese . The beast burger was amazing good. They have a nice friendly staff .. They cleaned tables 3 times while we were eating making sure tables were always cleaned.. In my opinion it is worth the drive here read more

This used to be the good spot. Used to (see previous review). The food is overpriced. If you're going to charge over $20 for a pastrami combo, please make sure that the bread is not stale. Staff is great great. Hope the food had stayed great. read more

Greek chicken Salad in a taco shell = To die for!!! Mouthwatering, fresh and absolutely a must have.

Mmmmm tasty!! read more

Consistency with there chili cheese fries and club sandwich always my go to spot whenever I'm out

I very rarely give one star, but one star is exactly what they deserve. First the prices are ridiculous. Going to what's basically a hamburger stand and paying extremely high prices for some of the worst food I've had in my life. The cheeseburger sucked, from the massive amount of lettuce and mushy tomatoes to their version of secret sauce. They're taquitos I think they got from Costco, and I'm not sure what the filling is, but it's definitely not meat. The avocado soup that they pour on top of it is terrible, and by the time you get home, your taquitos which were sitting in the soup, are basically now soggy and inedible. The chicken strips are mostly breading and not much chicken. There are so many better options in the City of Downey for everything that's on their menu. Don't waste your time or money on this place. read more

OMG! Mr. Pete's has lost their minds. Prices are through the roof! If the food was awesomely GREAT it still wouldn't be worth the price. Sorry was really disappointed food,price,time ( kept waiting for someone to take order after 10 min wait was leaving when I got can I help you! Should have left. $26.00 (1) Pastrami Sandwich, $22.00 steak sandwich and $17.00 club sandwich Nothing extra- no specials I cannot recommend this place, its prices are as bad as Disneyland and food and service are not worth the price. Mr. Pete's have you heard of PRICE GOUGING!!!!!!! ( a kids grilled cheese $8.00 that's 2pcs of bread and maybe 2 slices of cheese).‍Ambiance nothing cooks are hot so, it's a freezer. Save your money. Go across the street to Stater Bros ( you'll have to make it) but, you can buy the same stuff and you'll come out saving money! NO ON MR. PETE'S read more

I've been eating here for nearly 20 years. The prices continue to go up and have gotten beyond reasonable. More importantly, I do not belive they charge the correct prices. I have come here countless times and not a single menu item has a price posted. Again today, every price in the restaurant and the drive thru are blacked out. If you ask for a menu with prices, they tell you they don't have any menus with pricing... It's very inappropriate... read more
