Pelon's restaurant offers a cool and intimate atmosphere perfect for conversation with lovely and attentive staff. However, some reviewers found the food and drinks to be mediocre, with bland flavors and poorly made cocktails. Despite some negative experiences with the bartenders and food quality, Pelon's has potential as a great spot for events and outdoor dining. Overall, mixed opinions on the food and service but definitely worth a visit for their tres leches cake and margaritas made by the excellent waiter, Shane.
