BACK AT IT AGAIN!!! still feel the same, so tasty, so worth…read moreit. will never not visit smokin pete's when i'm around. the birria brisket tacos are my fave thing so we always run it back with those. cornbread so goooood. all the meat tender and delicious. 10/10 every time!!

I know I'll be in the minority here and that's fine. I don't care lol…read more I went to this place a couple years ago bc my friends absolutely raved about it and holy shit! It was amazing. I never eat pulled pork...ok maybe (and this legitimately) like once a year and that's if I'm at some reception and it's an option, I go to NY and my friends wanna go here. Other than that, I'll never be like "mmm omg! I'm so in the mood for a pulled pork sandwich tonight! LETSSSS! GO!" That has never happened lol. Pulled pork is so good .. TASTY as in good! Good for you? Duh, who doesn't know it's so bad for you haha! That's why once a year is good for me. So we went to Pete's a last month (August 1st 2026 to be exact). I was pretty excited bc of my first time being there. This time...yeah, let's just say I don't care to ever do again. I ordered the same pulled pork sandwich and 2 sides of Mac n cheese bc Mac n cheese at places like this...next level shit. Wasn't this time tho. It was like ... old and not even hot. Was a major letdown. The pork..:was just a scoop plopped on my tray. No bun was given to me. I needed two if I'm being honest. I was like "oh, don't I get a roll or something?" The girl behind the counter look so irritated when I asked. So, lemme get this right...you order the pulled pork SANDWICH and they give a big scoop on a tray and just expect what...you eat it with your hands or a fork? Sure, some prob do that but again...I ordered the... sandwich. Sandwiches always come with/on a roll? Correct? Or 2 slices of bread? I legit ordered the exact same thing as last time. Last time a roll was provided. Hell, the sandwich was made. Now, this place is INSANELY popular. Most bbq places are when done right. My friend and her man are regulars here. They swear by it. I didn't have the heart this time to tell them that I absolutely hated it. The way the cook looked at me when I asked for a roll..:I'll never forget that. It's almost like she was about to say "yeah, $3 more for the roll" even tho I GUARANTEE the roll is a Wegmans brand hamburger roll and if anything should I dunno....be included when you order...that's right...A SANDWICH. That brings me to the cost. The sandwich and Mac n cheese cost ... $30!! THIRTY. DOLLARS!! And it wasn't even a sandwich until I MADE IT hahaha! THIRTY! DOLLARS! Not sure if the cashier made a mistake bc the prices were the same pretty much as last time and it was $18 last time. Even if prices have gone up (like most places) a $12 increase for the same thing in that short period of time... asinine. I seriously could have gone to the restaurant at Belhurst and gotten a meal that I actually ordered or literally any other restaurant haha. Not sure if the popularity of this place has officially ruined it (at least for me), but a lot of times when restaurants blow up the way this place has...they tend to change and not for the better. They get comfortable and get away with all kinds of shit. It's unfortunate bc I know the next time I'm in town, they'll all wanna go here and I'll go but I'll just order a drink. Probably cost me $8 just for the actual soda and $3 for the tiny cups they give you hahaha. Aside from that ride cook, the staff is actually pretty friendly. So they do have that going for them. Anyone who has been, knows this place is insanely busy and busy all the time. We waited in line, out the door for 30 mins. IMHO, after this latest visit, it's so not worth the wait and you have to DRIVE way out. So the drive, the lines, the cost, and the scoop of meat on a tray...seriously, find another place. I know this review won't change many minds and that's fine. You either really love this place, feel meh about it, or hate it. I'm kinda in between meh and hate even tho hate is a strong word. I just don't see the need for me to ever drive all the way out there again, wait in a long ass like, spend $30+ for a sandwich etc etc when there are so many other options in Geneva and along the road leading out to Pete's. Again, I'm fully aware this review will like have zero impact. I'm just giving my two cents bc I was so excited to finally go back just to leave disappointed. Ok. That's it! Oh! One last thing, the restaurant itself is cool. Bar/restaurant setup is pretty awesome. The "backyard"/patio is great for the summer/warmer months. They close at like 9 which is wild. Backyard too..like zero lighting. So when that sun starts to go down...get out your phones and turn them flashlights on bc it's dark...at least it was when I was there last. Thanks for reading, Yelpeters! Cheers!

Went around 1pm and sat in the bar. Seemed like a lot of business people even until after we left…read moreat 2.. kudos for capturing late lunch business! The staff was super friendly, perfect amount of attention. The prices seemed a bit high for the sandwiches so we decided to split and it was absolutely perfect. So with that, well worth the price per plate. The music was perfect for the crowd. 70s classics i think. The bathrooms need attention to the floor but was still very clean. I would definitely return! Oh also, it sounded like the crew was having fun in the back which made my heart happy.

Dined like locals at this bar gathering spot…read more Thirsty Turtle is a local watering hole where Victor residents appear to congregate after work. This sports bar isn't overly spacious especially on dreary days when the patio is left unused but inside was quite lively. It didn't take too long for us to be seated on the dining side of restaurant. Menu featured the standard starters, burgers, salads, the "turtle" plate and a $9 kids menu. We had the Beef on Weck ($17.75) and the Caesar Salad ($12) onto which you can add extra chicken, shrimp or steak. Beef on Weck is a local sliced prime rib sandwich with mushrooms & sautéed onions. The prime rib tasted delicious with horseradish mayo in the fluffy kimmelweck roll but there was too heavy a dose of salt in the au jus as well as more sea salt in the sandwich. It also came with a large side of imitation crab salad. From the kids meal, the mac & cheese was unlike any other we've had elsewhere. There was literally no cheese but rather a very light layering of perhaps KD on al dente macaroni. The side of baked beans tasted better and more sweet. Service was attentive & pleasant, and dishes arrived all at once. The bill was dropped off upon dessert and card was taken for payment. Skip it or hit it? Neat bar to try Beef on Weck at least once but skip the mac & cheese.
