We met a few friends here on Tuesday and loved their taco tuesday deals with some domestic beer deals and added their delicious queso and chips!My only complaint was that the waiter did not tell us about the deal, we had to learn about it from our friends.

I was highly disappointed this time. Three shrimp tacos with only onions and cilantro no sides for $20. That's over $6 per taco. It was not tasty at all. I called the restaurant and asked if they were out of lettuce and tomatoes. I was told that's how they make the shrimp tacos with onions and cilantro and it does not come with sides (rice and beans). This is definitely overpriced. Additionally, I gave a $5 tip. On a positive note, the quacamole was good as always.

Comida!!! Delicioso! If you're in Gastonia, NC and you have a craving for Mexican food, I recommend you stop by Don Pedro's for a meal. My sister and I had lunch at this restaurant on 13 Dec 2023. I'm glad we stopped in. We were greeted warmly and shown to an available table (there were two rather large lunch parties in the restaurant area). I ordered the beef taco plate-two hard-shelled taco, rice and refried beans, and my sister ordered the chimichanga plate. Both were delicious ! We also enjoy churros with caramel sauce, yum. Oh yeah, if you want a great margarita--this is the place.

Popped in for lunch, and was pleasantly surprised, based on its location. Everything was good. Nothing was over the top, and I have my Mexican joints that I'd rank above this. I ordered the lunch avocado tostada with chicken, but they forgot my chicken. I shared that with the server and she brought me out a bowl full of chicken. It wasn't worth the price for their guacamole they put on it. I know it isn't their fresh table side guac, but this tasted like powered avocado mixed with water and an onion. My kid got the kids quesadilla - it was super cheesy, but greasy (like paper towel on a pizza greasy). She loved their rice though, along with the mild salsa. The inside of the restaurant is nice. It also has plenty of "instagram worthy" walls - like "tequila made me do it". It's an upbeat casual vibe with attentive servers! I think everyone has their favorite Mexican spot, but this didn't check the boxes for me. If I was in the area, I'd go again and try something new, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

The food at Don Pedro was amazing. I had Seafood Paella, Whole Fried Tilapia, Salad with Avocado and Yellow Rice. I was thoroughly satisfied. The food exceeded my expectations. The restaurant is perfect to dine with family or friends for dinner or lunch. The atmosphere is quiet and friendly. It's one of the nicest Mexican restaurants that I have visited in Gastonia. I highly recommend. BTW I met Misty at the nail salon next door who recommended this restaurant. I'm grateful. Great food.

Ordered a cheese ENCHILADA, very common on vegetarian menus at other local Mexican restaurants. Got home to find a tortilla filled and cover in melted shredded cheese. Not really sure what happened but definitely not the first time I've been disappointed with my order from here. As just by the presentation not appetizing at all.

Bad service. All I can say is the food is good, but the service is horrible. I came with my husband, and they thought our appetizer was the meal I'm assuming because they never took our order so we just left. Spent 70$ on appetizers, and drinks that took 30 minutes to get which was not worth it. Way overpriced. Would not recommend. Azteca or tequilas Mexican food in Gastonia is way better than this place. Do not waste your time or money here. The people who work here are clueless, and don't understand how a business works or how customer service works. If you want to get ripped off, this is the place to go.
