However, Pete's has changed significantly over the years. What used to be a vibrant, locally-owned destination has become just another profit-driven establishment. When it was locally owned, it was a four-star gem, but since corporate America took over, it's turned into just another roadside stop in Nevada.

I'm not sure what kind of water they were using, but it tasted awful. The crab portions were very small, making it a lot of effort for just a little bit of meat. Considering the price of the meal, there were simply too many letdowns.

The selection was mostly Mexican dishes along with a sparse salad bar. On the positive side, the fried shrimp was delicious! However, the shredded meat for the tacos was dry and unappetizing. In fact, many of the items looked like they hadn't been refreshed for hours, even with so many diners present. I will never return—such a waste of money!

But much like how my life is going right now I lose mostly, especially when playing poker with my ex-wife Karen who decided to show off her new man. But jokes on her judging by the the looks of him the kids are gonna hate him. Anyways back to this place, 8/10 would love to go again.

There were no options for hot vegetables, but rather meat, potatoes and mac&cheese. Highlights: pork was good. Deserts were good. Overpriced at $20 given the quality of most entries. I cannot recommend this place.
