Revision: in the last few months it really feels like Illegal Pete's (colfax) has stepped it up with the salt distribution. I've had at least three near-perfect compositions. The pricing structure of the burritos also appears to have changed slightly for the better.In the same period, I also tried ~3 Chipotle meals, which have been considerably worse in both quality and value compared to my memory.As all reviews are relative, I believe Illegal Pete's deserves a respectable 4. Not perfect, but the best chipotle-like available locally. Congratulations to Pete.

We got Illegal Pete's delivered for lunch and it was wonderful! The queso was very tasty! All of the food was very fresh - even with delivery. We will definitely be ordering again!

I was curious about the name and then about the building so I stopped to pay a visit. Plus it was time for lunch. Ahh, burritos are on the menu. Tried the grilled steak and added guacamole to make it extra better. The burrito was excellent so I returned a couple of days later to try the beer battered fish burrito. Another home run. Burritos, tacos, salads, bowls and more - they got you covered. I see why this is a fan favorite.

Awesome place for a quick bite. Ordered the carnitas quesadilla and they were really good!! The meal comes with 2 sides (dipping sides) and I got guac and queso. Both of the sides were really tasty. Tons of seating inside and outside. The place was clean, the service was great and fast. 10/10

I'm in disbelief about the negative reviews because this is honestly the best place I've been to. The staff is the BEST (Randz. Jess, Matt, Kat, grant, bud, Sherman, j ray) I have been coming here 3-5 times a week for years and have always had an amazing time. The food is delicious and affordable, the atmosphere is great, the drinks are awesome and reasonably priced. This is an incredible local spot. Appreciate you guys and all your hard work! Sorry for all the complaining Karen's on here

A better version of chipotle/qdoba! The food is fresh, service is quick, and there's a great outdoor area to sit in addition to a large indoor space. Highly recommend a burrito bowl & adding the potatoes

Grabbed a late dinner here after traveling in and someone local recommended. I got a kids bowl with chicken for a smaller portion and they made sure to load it up with protein and rice, that my toppings barely even fit. The rice seemed a little undercooked and was crunchy but everything else was pretty good. The inside looks super fun and would like to dine in sometime. The queso is really tasty, I like the chunks of peppers in it.

All the servers are great, Pete's is a local favorite in town. Drinks are delicious and happy hour is long. There's an app for rewards and I should have downloaded as often as we go to Pete's...but I just can't with another app. Still love this place and miss it every time I move away.

My wife and I enjoyed a great meal at Illegal Pete's tonight. I ordered the Baja Fish Bowl and it was delicious. It was freshly prepared and served within about ten minutes of my order being placed. The serving was ample and I certainly plan on going back soon.

Why the attitude?I am a single dad and this is had been my spot when I have the kiddo. Every time we come the staff has been rude and it keeps getting worse. Just a bunch of 20 somethings working with a power trip now.When my daughter orders, the line cook said "what" a couple times so I barely lean in (not over) to tell them what she said and I have two employees yelling at me to get back with such an aggressive tone, like I have a gun or something. So completely unnecessary and off putting. I don't need this and teach my daughter to respect herself and remove herself from negative situations. I have spent close to $1000 over the years, but I am convinced they don't care. Unless they reach out and apologize in some way this will be my last time there.
