Pedro's is a place that I remember fondly from my childhood. We used to eat there from time-to-time when I was a kid.
Sadly, the place hasn't seemed to evolve much since the 80's. We went for an early dinner one night before seeing a show in Madison. We were seated at about 4:30 pm, and were the only ones in the dining room. The decor is 80's "americanized Mexico." It looked exactly as I remember it from years ago. It did seemed to be kept up.
I was really looking forward to the hot fresh tortillas they used to serve. There is a tortilla maker in the middle of the dining room. Unfortunately, the machine wasn't running. I can understand that since the place was pretty empty, but the tortillas they gave us were dry and hard. They had been sitting out for awhile. That was a bit disappointing.
I had a burrito, it was ok. Nothing too exciting. In the 80's and 90's it would have been great, but Mexican food in Wisconsin has gotten so much better over the years.
I still love their chips and salsa, though! However, that probably isn't enough to bring me back again anytime soon.
