Went on a Saturday night. A little before 7pm. They were able to fit 6 of us outside right away no problem. After us there was a small wait. There's a parking lot!! However it does fill up fast. I was lucky enough to snag a spot. Chips and salsa were decent. Not free. I think it was like 2 dollars. Got the guacamole and it was very good. I had the small chicken tinga tacos. Small comes with two tacos, large is two tacos plus rice and beans. The chicken was delicious. Very juicy, cooked with peppers and onions and perfect amount of spice. My husband got the carne asada tacos and they were over cooked. Rice and beans were bland. I tried their special margarita which was watermelon. Very fresh, not artificial tasting. read more

Pedro's was great, food was great for Mexican food way up her in Maine. Chips and salsa were great and the chicken tinga tacos were too. Would definitely recommend this as a place to eat read more

Visited in August 2020. Atmosphere is great, fun, post beach atmosphere. Feels like you're on vacation.... Sadly we were kind of disappointed with the food. We ordered carne asada tacos, chimichanga, burritos...etc..a pretty broad sweep of the menu overall in our large party. We found the food to be fairly bland honestly. Beans had no seasoning or flavor. My daughter said that the most flavorful thing on her plate was the lettuce. Also, I don't understand why you can go to a Mexican restaurant in say, no-whereville Indiana and you know the restaurant isn't raking in $$$ compared to a place in wealthy Kennebunk...but somehow it seems like every other Mexican restaurant in the planet can manage to afford to bring out tortillas and salsa on the house...the moment you sit down... This place you have to pay for chips and salsa...and the chips were sorta stale and the salsa pretty bland. I don't get it... It seems like a Mexican restaurant tradition (free tortillas and salsa) it's an extremely thoughtful gesture and I'm sure it's not cheap and easy for every other restaurant to uphold that tradition. Not sure why Pedro's feels differently. read more

Hopefully it was just an off night, keeping up with take out, beautiful weather and newly increased capacity. It was fabulous until our server disappeared for 35 minutes then we had to wait another 15 minutes for the check. Food orders rolled out, so perhaps short staffed for servers? Disappointing but we will give it a go again another day. read more

Our first time at Pedro's. The food was great however, the type of music and the volume of the music was an insult to your great food and waitstaff. read more

Solid Mexican restaurant. I had 2 different margaritas, a grapefruit and a strawberry. Both very good. For dinner I had lobster tacos with rice and beans. Love them. I'll be back. And you should go. Great outside seating. read more

The website says they do take out. This is not true.the also claim to be open til 9 pm, also not true.

In a word, my experience at Pedro's was so above and beyond that I felt it was necessary to create a Yelp account and leave this review. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to. What more could you ask for? Friendly conversations with the staff, an attentive waitress, and a personal check-in from the owner. Especially considering the pandemic, and that we were sat within an hour of their close, the staff and service were top notch. Let be clear here though, the service would have been nothing without the delicious food and drinks. Everything on the menu from the sauces to the barbacoa to the hand squeezed margarita ingredients took the experience to the next level. If you are ever in Kennebunkport, Pedro's is a MUST. read more

First thing to our table was the amazing salsa and guacamole with chips!! YUM!! Best salsa ever!! We even took some home! I had the fish tacos, also amazing!!! And the Hibiscus Margarita was delicious!! Our waiter Matt is such a gem and took wonderful care of us!! We will be back because of his excellent service and the delicious food! read more

It has been years since I've had a proper margarita out. They know how to make a perfect margarita here! Who knew a little Mexican spot in Kennebunkport would be so authentic. Great food, great service, going back for happy hour read more

Great experience at Pedro's! The service was excellent! Jamey was very attentive and made great recommendations. The cucumber margarita was unique and delicious! Food was great and came out quickly! Will definitely be back! read more

Pedro's - Mexican Near Me - Kennebunk, Maine

Pedro's is one of my favorite places to hit when in Maine. 2018 Christmas Prelude. You absolutely must get the salsa, chips and guac! To die for. Hibiscus margarita is another great hit! Can't beat the nachos, taco salad and the quesadillas! Good thing I dont live here, I would have to work there, because I would be there every day! Staff us great. Super friendly snd superb customer service skills. Fun place you just got to try! read more

Awesome love it ! ! we got to meet a local that needed "some assistance" happy hour tacos were great...and the margaritas are out of this world!!! read more

Pedro's - Mexican Near Me - Kennebunk, Maine

Very disappointed! We come here every year during vacation and have always enjoyed it. It was horrible! An over abundance of cumin in everything, the tacos, the beans, the rice, the pork burrito! My soft shell tacos were stale. Worse than all of this, the bartender kept removing his mask and coughing!! Plus a male server who's mask was down was sneezing constantly. Terrible experience! read more

Unique place! Tacos and drinks were good. Came all the way here from Old Orchard and was worth the drive!!

We love Pedros. After spending many years in the Southwest Pedros is still one of the best we've encountered. Now we make it a regular occurrence every time we're in town. Was up for the weekend recently and decided to start the weekend out right at Pedros. The next day our friends joined us in town and had Pedros cuisine on the brain. So, naturally, that's where we had dinner that evening as well. And it was fabulous. Again. read more

One of my favorite places to visit in the summer. The wait staff is always fantastic! I love the vibe from the inside of the restaurant and sitting outside is well lit and a beautiful fire place with plenty of propane heaters in case you're cold. read more

Service was good but this is not the same Pedro's. Margaritas were glowing neon green and not drinkable. Their once delicious fresh tomato salsa is now some strange cream based non edible mess. The guacamole is bland and boring. This used to be a favorite of locals but I now see why it empty on a prime Sunday afternoon. read more

First time eating at Pedro's. Atmosphere and decor was fun . Our waitress was great but I'm sorry to say the food left much to be desired. Appetizer of guacamole proved to be way too chunky to even get out of the bowl with chips. And it was somewhat bland- even for guacamole! My husband had a fish taco and a gringo( ground beef) taco with refried beans and rice. I had a fish taco and a shrimp taco with rice and black beans( was expecting refried with my order also). The beef taco was the best of the bunch. The piece of fish in the taco was barely visible ( not kidding) and all but the beef were dry and tasteless. Could have been so much better with some seasoning, shredded lettuce and cheese and some chopped tomatoes. Not authentic at all. Would not make a return visit read more

My friends and I were having a great day and decided to grab diner together before going home. We have all been to Pedros before and decided to grab diner there. (For context were aren't very old so people don't take us seriously sometimes when we go into restaurants or stores.) So we go in and we can tell the lady working there wasn't happy we were so young. She told us a 15-minute wait and she would call when there was an available table. After about an hour I called back reluctantly she said she could get us a table in about 15 minutes. We arrive and she leads us to a tiny half table against a wall in the very back of the restaurant behind the bar. It was both uncomfortable and humiliating. She takes our drinks orders and she grabs them quite fast. Then we have to wait another 15 mins for a completely different person to take our order. The food took probably 30 minutes and was only ok. We got nachos and Barbacoa burritos. The nachos were good but they put all the guacamole and salsa on the top when they could have easily put them evenly across the nachos. They make their own corn chip and we ran into a group of chips that were still soft and not cooked. The burritos were decent and were the only someone good part of the meal. When we were finished it took them ages to take away our plates and Evan longer to get us the bill After this a couple of days later we decided to go back because we wanted to give them a second chance. This time they got us right in and we got a regular table. We ordered guacamole and chips this time because we knew better than to get the nachos. The chips were way over salted with some completely covered in salt in was horrible. We got chicken enchiladas which were quite good until we found short white beard or nose hairs in our food. We all found one and could have found more if we hadn't wanted to just leave. We got the bill and left. Overall i would not recommend it going there unless you are starving. read more

Best margarita in town, and fun ambiance and music! I once ordered a drink (trying something new) and when I didn't really like it, I asked my server/bartender if she would doctor it up and kind of make it into a margarita. She happily obliged, and made it much better without a trace of fuss. Also, the smoked bourbon flan is v yummy :) I've also had a really good burrito here. Added bonus: The tables outside are all hand-painted and really pretty and fun. read more

This place is a hidden gem. Exceeded my expectations (unlike Robert's Maine last night). Limited seating due to Covid. We ordered both the margarita clasica and the margarita prima....when ordering round two we both went with clasica. We tried the tacos: chicken tinga, vegan cauliflower and carne asada. All were great - but the shining star here is the street corn appetizer. Whoa. Soooo good! Would most definitely recommend and return! read more

The drinks were delicious. That is where it ended. My family and I have been to realistically hundreds of Mexican restaurant having lived in Texas. . First, I have never been to a Mexican restaurant that you have to order and pay for chips and salsa. The salsa was like cold spaghetti sauce. Absolutely no taste. I asked if it could be warmed up and was told no. My husband's burrito was good if it had queso served with it, but apparently queso is a special order. They make it up special, you have to order it special. My taco meat was good but the tortilla was hard. My son's fish taco's literally had no fish in them, just fried batter. Very disappointed. read more

I came to Maine to eat seafood so wasn't pleased when my husband begged to just eat Mexican food. Well that stopped at the chips and salsa, guacamole and margarita. His fajitas were great and my tacos were even better. Yum. It was an easy decision to go back again before we left. read more

What great food and super service! Our campground in Berwick recommended this place. Completely worth the 25 min drive!! The salsa was so good we even bought extra to take back with us. Btw, they also have Happy Hour read more

First problem, we understood the covid issues. We went to Pedro's gave our number and were told we would be called. After a 30 plus minute wait I went to desk and was told " we tried to call" which was a lie. We were seated ordered and the food delivered, we had to ask for cutlery while our meals began to cool. The food was terrible but maybe the yanks like it but we Texan's know good Mexican food. I mean Cheddar cheese in a burrito no way. Think twice whilst vacationing in Kennebunkport. read more

My friends and I visited Pedro's for the stroll and we were so pleasantly surprised with everything. The margaritas were amazing along with the food. There was a live band who were great and the vibe was just so fun. We got to meet Amber and the owner Norm who couldn't have been any more gracious and nice. They both helped us to resolve a transportation situation and without them would have been stranded. Only in Maine do people go out of there way to help others like they did. I would highly recommend this restaurant and the people in it! If you are up for a good time, great people and excellent food then this is your place! Thanks again Amber and Norm!! read more

Excellent local place to go! Amazing food, the margaritas are the best I've ever had. The service is quick and efficient We go to Maine at least once a year and if we don't get to Pedro's then it wasn't a good trip You must try it! read more

Fun atmosphere, good food, fair prices. Very tasty entrees. Good drinks. Highly recommend.

They took our takeout order, but when we showed up 30 minutes later for the food, their response was "sorry, a new person took your order. We don't do take out". Wtf???? Who does that?? read more

Came here as a challenge because we are from California and have the most amazing Mexican restaurants there! We were pleasantly surprised to find that the margaritas are very effective and the food was very satisfying! We had the nachos which had guacamole and salsa that was exemplary! We are only here for a week, but if we were here longer, we would come back for sure! Check it out, Sally is super cool and was a great server! read more

Wish I can give zero stars. Started with a margarita that was too bitter to drink after two sips I had to give up. Then I had asked for queso and chips and ended up getting some nasty half melted cheese with some salty greasy ground beef under it. Took one bite and I couldn't continue I didn't want to get sick. I ordered for my entree the barbacoa plate which is $25 and the beans were not cooked, rice was mushy, and the meat was just disgusting. Waiter was rude when I gave him my food back and tried to charge me for a plate that I took one bite from. If you want food that's Mexican DO NOT go to this place. Ended up at McDonald's after I left. read more

I traveled here on my anniversary for a little happy hour celebrations! The happy hour prices were fabulous! After having a relaxtion massage from the Cottage Day Spa we were in the mood to just grab a bite before heading home. My significant other had been suggesting trying this place for awhile and we decided today would be the day! I am very happy we did! The place is a lot bigger than what it looks like in the pictures I have seen on the internet. The insides is super festive and nicely decorated! I can't wait to come back in the summer and sit on the deck! Their $5.00 Margarita didn't taste like it was premixed (even if it was) and had a great refreshing feel to it! We tried the guacamole which came with warm tortilla chips and salsa that was fabulous! It had a tang of tomato with a small kick and lot of underlying flavors! I am always impressed with a great salsa! As part of the happy hour deal we also indulged in the $3.00 tacos! I had a Street taco which was filled with luscious, juicy and well flavored chicken with fresh cilantro and creamy queso fresco! The first bite was amazing, but when I added a bit of the guacamole and the salsa to it...it was just plain delicious. My boyfriend enjoyed the pork tacos he ordered and the ghost chili sauce that he could put on it. I can't wait to go back to try the fish tacos and maybe the sangria! I would suggest coming to try out this little hidden gem! read more

Met friends at Pedros on a Friday night. We had a table reserved, lucky for us. I ordered the classic margarita, very nice. Others at the table paid way more for their drinks. Stick with the basic drink and it is a good thing. After drinks arrived no server for nearly 45 mins. Three tables around us had food by this time and they sat after we did. Finally we wrangle the server away and order. My meal arrives sans chicken, which I spent $4 extra dollars adding to my meal. I sent it back and I get four pieces of dried out chicken a little bigger than a silver dollar in size. I know that things are tight, really? I could have nearly a pound of chicken for the $4s I paid to add that to the $8 taco salad. Rest of the food looked good, no word how it tasted. I am not sure that they can over come the bad service and survive the summer. read more

The quality of of the food has steadily improved here to the point that it is good. I had very high hopes when they opened a few years ago knowing this was the same ownership as the Ramp in Cape porpoise. The food has steadily improved. The service is hit or mess. This is very understandable considering the boom and bust tourist traffic through Kennebunkport. Sometimes a simple lunch can get confused and protracted. More than once a server here put a plate of nachos down in front of one of my young kids only to say "this dish is extremely hot". Completely annoying. read more

Pedro's - A fellow of infinite queso - Mexican Near Me - Kennebunk, Maine

This might be a fantastic Mexican place for Kennebunkport. I've been to plenty of Mexican places. This is one of the worst. Service is pretty good. No complaints there. Both the chicken and carne asada have absolutely no seasoning whatsoever. Very good Mexican restaurants marinate chicken, beef, and pork. Certainly not at Pedro's, though. The food is tasteless. On another note, I asked for a side of salsa. Figured, what? $1-2 for a side of salsa? No, $4!!! For two tablespoons of pico. You can get a bowl of Italian salsa and Parmesan bread at Grissini's for exactly $4. How do I know? I ate at Grissini's the following evening. Pico de gallo is the only type of salsa Pedro's offers. Every Mexican restaurant I've visited in Cali, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, NYC, and even Connecticut have various salsas on-hand. Finally, Pedro's is probably great for Kennebunkport-area residents who need something close to Mexican. But every time I vacation in Kennebunkport, there's no way I will eat Pedro's. There's a way better Mexican place, with better quality and above average food (especially the burritos) south of Kennebunkport near York, ME, called Loco Cocos. I urge you to try Pedro's and see for yourself. If you have taste buds, you'll know what I'm talking about. read more

I love their chicken street tacos and their chicken tinga tacos. Am glad of the times they allow take out.

We arrived with a party of 20 people. Service was spectacular. Food choices were plentiful and excellent flavors. Fantastic meal and ambience. read more
