Pete's Cafe

Had lunch here today & had the shrimp tacos & they were delicious! Served on flour tortillas with tomatoe & lettuce/ cabbage mix with Chipotle sauce.....with rice & beans. I asked for sauce on side. Very well seasoned & not spicy & they were generous with the shrimp. I'll get these again.

Yum yum yum! Ask for Christmas on the side! The red is hot and the green is amazing but has a kick! We loved the queso! The enchiladas are traditional and delicious! The beans are whole when served and the rice is more Spanish than Mexican but still tasty!

Great food, great service and affordable. We don't get down to Pete's in Belen very often. We are always very satisfied with the food, atmosphere and service. This is a great local restaurant decorated in typical Southwest theme. I came in ready to do a great review with great pictures but when the food came we ate. I realized much too late to take a picture. Sorry I was hungry and it was very good. We started with their chips and salsa. I was able to get a quick picture before we all gobbled it up. I love their salsa! It has great flavor and a mild bite. You can taste the cilantro and onion. My hubby and I both had the shrimp tacos. They are my favorite with the chipotle sauce. Great flavor and not too spicy. My son had the beef torta with calabacitas. It was as great with some salsa. The red chili today was really hot. I love their calabacitas! They are my favorite. And of course we gobbled up the sopas with honey. I got a picture of the last one before my son grabbed it.

This a surprisingly big place! It has several dining areas around a central kitchen. The ambiance is uniquely New Mexican. The food was good and the service wonderful. Family friendly and good for large groups, too. If I had to recommend a place to eat in this tiny town, it would be Pete's Cafe.

Good food good chile. Restaurant is nice and clean prices are not to bad. Everyone is friendly

First time ever dining here. My coworker who is a local in Belen told me about this place. I was curious about it so I decided to give them a try. I was told walking in there would be a 15 minute wait so I was fine with that and waited. Soon as a table became available they lead me into the dining room. It was about 10 minutes before I even saw my waitress. There was another woman going around filling drinks even brought me mine, and some chips and salsa. She was more attentive to me than my waitress. By the time the waitress came around I was ready to order. After that I didn't see her for over 30 minutes until she brought my food out. I was almost ready to walk out.I had ordered the Cheese Enchilada plate w/ green chili that came with some rice and beans. The chili wasn't too hot which I appreciated. It was delicious! The rice had cheese on top which was awesome. Same with the beans. By the time I finished I was ready for my check which was promptly brought out but then it was about 10 minutes waiting on my waitress to return before I ended up seeing another customer get up and coke up to the counter at the front to pay their check. I ended doing the same. Other than the slow service, the food was pretty good at a fair price. I would consider returning.

The waiter was great! The food was delicious. The restaurant was clean. It's always dependable. The food tastes the same every time we go.

Delicious, authentic, homemade New Mexican food! I'm from Chicago with great restaurants- Pete's is so delicious! Homemade family vibe. My Husband and I have a wonderful local Belen friend who brought us here to Pete's. How lucky for us! I had a combo beef burrito. Was so good! But my only wish was that I had eaten the stuffed sopapillas! That's the dish to have! Next time!

Our food was very good and my Aunt wanted a small portion plate, she got the senior meal with the relleno and it was the perfect portion size for her, also the Margaritas here are delicious
