A few years ago, Pete’s was known for their stunning artisanal fresh fruit platters that truly stood out and were well worth the price. However, the platter I picked up today (May 2023) was quite underwhelming. It didn’t include any exotic fruits, and the arrangement was lacking creativity. The attention to detail was poor, with uneven cuts, and it was clearly made the day before, resulting in soggy pieces underneath. I could easily make a better platter myself or just buy one from a basic grocery store. I’m really disappointed.

I frequently find myself wandering around, looking for assistance when there should be staff available at the deli or dessert sections. I've even asked the managers to order cases of food for me, offering to pay in advance, but they refused and never followed up despite my repeated inquiries. If you visit around 5 PM, you'll see a noticeable absence of management, giving the place a vibe similar to that of a convenience store.
