    Fries
    Sofia L.

    I did order them both to go. The food was good but the fries are always over seasoned. At this point I think it's their signature. I've tried a few different items from their menu and every time I've gotten the fries they're overwhelmingly seasoned. I got into the habit of saying light seasoning now though. French toast was delicious. Main complaint I have, which wouldn't be able to be changed I think, is the drive thru. I was shouting my order and they still couldn't hear me. Had to repeat myself many times then have a different person take my order. I've eaten in the restaurant before and it's clean and nice. Their salad & chicken strips are good too.

    Pastrami sandwich with crispy fries
    Gina L.

    My sister and I stopped at Pete's to eat lunch my sister got the cheeseburger she said it was delicious burger and the fries were season well, I got the pastrami Sandwich let me tell you the pastrami had so much flavor they gave you so much meat that I only could eat half of it my fries were season very well. The service was amazing very polite and very helpful cashier. The Ambiance was very good it the only thing I wish it had music but everything else was amazing. I give pete's a 10/10

    Bacon avocado cheese Burger with chilli cheese fries
    Eric G.

    This picture does no justice to how amazing these char boil burgers were. Truly an original with bold flavors. The chilli cheese fries so delicious and when in LA pair it up with orange bang which is an orange cream soda . Now this place isn't the prettiest but don't let it fool you it's definitely a hidden gem

Jim's is the only Burger Joint to charge this much for a slice of cheese!!!! Did the milk come from a cow made of Gold?

I had no expectations for this place, just walked in because Starbucks was closed and it was like a 50's themed diner/antique shop inside. The place was clean and fully staffed and there was a drive-thru. I ordered their sausage and egg breakfast sandwich on sour dough and needed the code to the restroom or the key and was on my way. Later in the day I got hungry and opened up the sandwich and it was perfect. It tasted like a good home made breakfast sandwich and looked amazing and tasted fresh. I got a photo of the cross section of the sandwich and it was immaculate. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a very good burger or meal on the go that's not a chain and it's actually better than a chain.

The order pick up window person shouted my name to the kitchen each time I checked in. Finally the 3rd time they responded, they start arguing, apparently my order was done a long time ago, and it was given to someone else. It took 30min to figure out that my order had already been done and given to someone else because there was no communication between the kitchen, order staff or pick up staff. no apology, just got my food after the argument 3minutes later...Food was average, definitely not worth a 30min wait.
