DO NOT PLAN EVENT HERE

by dansh99

I was trying to plan a party and the location and view made me strongly consider Pete's. I followed up with several members of management at Pete's hoping to plan a party for my sister. I was told different things numerous times. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, and after 2 calls to the same manager who confirmed the answers he spoke were true, I went to the restaurant to give in my cash deposit as required. I live in the Bronx...

When I arrived, I was once again told different information, told the owner had to OK the booking (he was not there) and to call the owner the next day to see if he could allow me to book the event. I opted to not call the next day and waste anymore time with them!

Needless to say, I would NOT recommend you plan an event here. It seems that answers change daily and you will risk your event being nothing like what was originally described to you.

As someone who has worked for many years in retail and hospitality, I am surprised they have any events at all considering their poor customer service.

Save yourself the stress and plan your next party somewhere else!

• Pros: NICE LOCATION
• Cons: cluless staff

Pete's is Great

by BXGEAR

Pete's Downtown has great food, good service, and a very nice view of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan Skyline. Always a great time! Amazing Grilled Shrimp Angel Hair. The menu has a pretty good selection. The view really makes it a special night.

• Pros: View, Food, Service
• Cons: none

Nice Atmosphere - Average Food.

by kiamhj

I've eaten here twice. The food is average - not great not bad. I had the penne vodka and it was decent. My husband enjoyed the kids chicken fingers better than his own meal. The atmosphere is nice and we were seated right away. The waitstaff was attentive. This seems more like a touristy type place to me though - I will not eat there again.
