Yet Every single time we went to dance the same people and bouncer was back in our spot drinking. The same bouncer let one of them to shoulder check my girlfriend while her friend swung on my girlfriend. The bouncers never did a thing to them, but the second I start to stand up for my girlfriend they pick me up and throw me out of the club. I repeatedly told them I would leave and not to throw me out. Because I just had back surgery. After throwing me on the ground they refused to call me an ambulance, and continue to threaten me. We went to the ER to get checked out. I am in the process of talking to my lawyer to see what the next step is we need to do about the way they did me. I have marks on my throat from where the bouncer picked me up by it. I also have marks from the other bouncers punching me while the other one had me picked up. Then Kenny Smith tried to make it better by telling us if we would give them another chance that he would by us our first round of drinks. If you are not from McAlester, I would stay away from this bar. It's a place for the locals to go and bully out of town people.​

Went with the Grilled Italian Sausage because pasta on top of pasta is just wrong. Grilled perfectly with a char on the ends! Really good flavor and pairs really well with the sketti/rav mixture. Meatballs cooked right with plenty of sauce. Definite leftover but why be greedy and ask for seconds just to take it home. Single person serving was way more than enough. Then again when my waiter brings extra meatballs and ravioli I am in heaven! Thought about dessert which is a toss up between the Cannoli and the Chocolate Devine. Think perhaps the Italian Creme Cake though. Italian Creme Cake to Go

Years ago, the food was amazing all handmade. Our family had been coming here from years ago. Bill preacher gave my uncle his rosary and told him I am not giving this to you. You were to bring it back and that's one of the first things My uncle did when he came back from World War II . Bill and Betty are no longer there and things have changed, of course because time has changed. However, it was wonderful coming back to reminisce with one of my dearest friends that remembers all the old times before the big remodel. As a matter of fact, my uncle was privileged to get to Cook spaghetti with Bill and my uncle taught us how to do it like they did years ago. As far as our visit today there the waitress was very friendly, but she knew nothing about the history of Petes. When we were checked out, it was the same thing. They were very friendly, but they knew nothing about the history of the place, which is a little sad to me. They have a lot of the memorabilia on the walls, but none of their staff we met knew anything about the history. We did have some food we wanted to take to go. They brought us to go containers however, again back in the day they would have packaged it up for us. I wish this new Petes lots of luck and lots of business. I do wish it was back like it was : same old recipes and learn the history because there was great people years ago that founded this place.

We ordered beer, the cucumber jalapeño margarita and lemonade with vodka, and soda. Holy Cow don't underestimate the size of the margarita. It clearly had to be shared. And even then there was some left over. Our table ordered a couple of single orders of steak and chicken fajitas ($10) as well as the Carne Asada ($14), tacos, and guacamole. The chips and salsa tied us over until the food arrived. The chicken and the steak were cooked exactly if they needed to be for the fajitas, the carne asada was tasty and filling, and the beans and rice were delicious. It was clear that people were enjoying their meals here and when there was one mixup it was corrected very quickly. This was our second time here. If you want a place where the food is reliably tasty, the service is, and the prices are very reasonable -- this is an ideal option in McAlester.
