Service is hit or miss. The food is great. Other items sometimes are hefty portions. Other times not-so-much. I usually adore Illegal Pete's but the past month (end Dec to Jan 2025-26) things have deteriorated after the holidays? I will always come back. I will update this review if earned. I don't like leaving poorly reviews. I love it so much I left 4 stars for food and nice staff and awesome atmosphere. Sometimes the music is wicked loud making ordering difficult. Thanks for all you do. I support local businesses. You all should also. You'll be glad you did.

Stopped in here after hearing lots of great feedback from fellow celiac folks. Fried chicken is not…read moresomething I ate a lot previously but I do get a craving now and again. Was immediately impressed by the staff. Greeted right away and they fully explained which food was safe and which ones to avoid. Also explained their precautions and overall process which was great. The place was very clean and looked well taken care of. The food itself was pretty great, given what they're trying to do without using flour. Texture was pretty spot on, but really the flavors are what got me. We tried both the plain and Nashville hot, and both were good. Tried 4 of their available sauces and everyone in the family agreed they were solid. The fries and most sides are also free from cross contamination so it was nice having a full meal where nothing was compromised or risky. Also appreciated the variety of lemonades and local sodas over the traditional coke/pepsi fountains most places offer. I won't say this fried chicken is a perfect one for one from my gluten eating days, but they've done a wonderful job of getting pretty close. The flavors and sauces get the experience pretty close in my opinion. Even my kids said they'd choose this over other "normal" fried chicken places. So if you're someone who avoids gluten and are craving some fried chicken, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

This was my second time at Starbird with the first being a Yelp event. Was heading home from some…read moreerrands and craving crispy chicken and figured why not. It's just as delicious as I remember. Chicken is super juicy and seems high quality. Fries are cooked and seasoned to perfection. Fountain drinks are local with decent ingredients and lemonades are made in-house. Service is friendly and gives good recommendations for dipping sauces. Honestly it's all a win. We opted for 4 pc tenders - an order of classic and one of the spicy variety with a smattering of dips. Love that if you take a picture of your food and scan a QR code it gifts a meal to someone in need. While it may not be the cheapest of fast casual joints, the quality and portions feel worth it. Love that we live within a short drive as I'll definitely come back, especially with our little one as she's also a fan!

Walk in casually as you go about your day on a sunny afternoon and have a quick Mexican food along…read morewith a refreshing Mexican beer kind of place is how I summarize this place. This long skinny establishment - not necessarily super spacious - can offer you a decent food that you can count on. You don't need anybody to go with - you can be a solo diner because this place is not intimidating in any way. It's that casual. I think this establishment was born in the old Stoney's Cantina space. Whether the place was huge enough to create two businesses (and thus La Loteria occupied half of it), I sort of saw some "remnant" of Stoney's was the impression that I got. Whatever I am correct on this or not, this casual Mex place is all about vivid pastel colored interior where red is mostly dominant. Intriguing murals on walls 360 degrees are quite impressive. Once you are inside, a huge arrow to direct the people to order to their left at the ordering counter. That ordering counter extends all the way where you'll see some bar seatings. The right side of it mostly has tables for small to large groups of people. Like I said, this place is not huge but at the same time, people don't stay long to dine; the turnover is quite quick in a way. The restaurant also gets many walk-in to-go order placers as well. I got me the Aztec Bowl for to-go. This dish is only $11 (as of early May of 2025) and is a vegetarian item. I consume a lot of vegetarian diet and yet my instinct loudly spoke to me to add some protein to it. Whether or not you can keep it non-meat to stay in the vegetarian zone, adding some protein to this dish is a must as if it was by itself, it would be a bit boring because it only has some greens and some slices of avocado. As the add-on, I got me the carne asada ($5.00) that comes with rice. Not bad.. I didn't eat it right after I got home; I meant to get it to eat it the next day which I did (this AM.) It was still fresh where nothing tasted stale. The carne asada was well-cooked with seasonings. In other words, it wasn't salty at all but held good flavors. Now on the receipt, I saw a charge of what's called "takeout service fee" which is 18%. I kind of assumed that this was mostly the mandatory gratuity. At the end of the card transaction, I remember that the different gratuity percentages were listed on the machine and they were quite small because of this fee. It'll be up to you to add more if you wish. Some people might complaint about this mandated system and yet I kind of understand that businesses nowadays must survive by navigating through the rising cost of living. As we have seen our favorite businesses disappear in the recent years, I am here to support them by whatever I could within my power. Whereas the parking on Broadway is a pain in the neck at any time of the day, if I think of a casual Mexican dining in the Baker neighborhood next time, I may stop by here. It's a good establishment to know.

The food is very health and low glycemic index. I have some minor blood sugar issues so the tons of veggies and no simple carbs is great - this has become one of my go-to "emergency" place - aka I waited too long to eat, I'm starving, I can't think straight to make good decisions, and need something nutritious fast. The chicken is AMAZING - seriously I didn't know you could make chicken this good - but as some other reviewers have commented, there is less that I'd prefer, seems like not quite enough, I always have to work a little to hard to make sure there's enough chicken left to spread out over every bite. The dressings are good but not amazing.
