I grew up on Petes living near ASU. It was a big treat for us when mom came home with shrimp and chips. Though the fries, I've never been a fan of.
I live in Cali now but when I visit, Petes is always on the "must go to" list. The last few times I was Slightly disappointed. It isn't what it used to be but still good. I took my cali boy boyfriend there because I rant and rave about it all the time and he didn't care for it. Must be a local thing! Cash only can be pretty inconvenient. Maybe Petes should think about changing that in today's times. Nobody carries cash really.
