Very good quality food! My husband and I have been here several times. The pizza is good, the fish fry is great - lots of choices and the regular menu has a nice selection. They have my favorite fish - Orange Roughy - which is rarely found on any restaurant menu. I had it the last time we were there - excellent! I cant give a 5 star rating because the gin and tonic that we had both tasted like the tonic was replaced with water. It was a busy Friday, so we didnt want to trouble our good waitress.
Service was really good. The place was under construction a bit but it wasnt too bad still tons of room. Food was good and fast. Definitely recommend a visit if youre in the area.
Very good food. GREAT Service. Very reasonable. Well, I think it was anyway. My brother in law picked up the bill!
Pistol Pete’s has always been a favorite place for pizza and gathering after work, but no more! Last night my wife had dinner with a friend and the pizza was sent back twice because it wasn’t cooked properly and was doughy in the center. That wasn’t even the worst part. The entire time, right from the point of walking in, the waitress was overtly rude and disrespectful. Called them whiny amongst other things. All totally unprovoked and unprofessional. The most offensive part was when I called and spoke with the manager, all I got were excuses about being short staffed. Sorry, but that’s not an excuse for unprofessional behavior. We will never darken the doors of this establishment again. Period. Strongly not recommended. Your money would be spent better elsewhere.
I was very grateful for Paige, a super upbeat and awesome server who was able to keep a big table of 8 people happy with their meal. The garlic bread cheese curds were soooo good. Thanks for a great evening!
All the food is delicious. The only thing preventing me from giving them 5 stars is the inconsistency getting To Go orders correct. 3 of the last 5 orders were either missing an item or had the wrong ingredients (chicken vs. beef on the taco salad). They have been good about offering to correct the issue, but they need to work harder on getting it right the first time. Check your order before you leave and you should be fine.
First time there. Had a Rubin to die for, one of the best ever had, and was huge ‼️ Service was slow due to only one waitress on duty ‼️
OK - Under construction inside and out - Ran out of Makers and new(ish) server had to run back for few things missed (side for entre and correcting bar bill) but other than that good food, will be better when they are done with the construction.
They had a great fish fry and a great atmosphere. The table staff were very happy and friendly.
Its okay. They were out of burgers, didnt get to try those. Pizza was good but not fantastic.
Bartender was very polite. Bar is clean and looks nice as well. Didnt eat there the last time but Ive had the food (fish and pizza) and both were very good.
Great Wednesday night pizza special with beer.
Good food, service and ambiance! Will go again!
Food was great! The service couldve been a little bit better.
This place is huge, enough space to social distance. A huge variety of choices on the menu. A separate bar area with dining tables. A separate dining room. The food was delicious, and seemed to have daily specials. Looking forward to dining here again.
Good menu good food to bad the owner is very rude! Feel sorry for the employees that have to put up with his arrogance. By the way you ( the owner) should always put the customer first. I would not recommend this place to anyone and this guy may be calling John Taffer one of these days.
Good food. Very busy with good service
Very nice staff and very friendly staff. The pizza was very good.
Ive been to several restaurants during the pandemic. This was by far the WORST. It was as if there wasn’t a pandemic going on. I didn’t feel comfortable even eating my pick up order as NO ONE has masks on. It also looked like they had every table available. There was no hand sanitizer and I saw one pen on the counter.
Wednesday night pizza deal is my favorite, pizza is awesome and when they say unlimited toppings they adhere to it pretty well, fish fry is excellent one of my favorite places to go, and if Im not feeling like to much of a pig between these days is all you can eat ribs and chicken. Its hard to find decent ribs anywhere, and these are pretty good, I only order ribs at very few places cause I am almost always disappointed in quality.
Very accommodating to our large group. Food was good.
Pizza and service was great. One of our favorite pizzas
I’ve read the responses from the manager on several posts in regards to how this establishment “takes the health safety laws seriously.” However, when picking up a call in order, we noticed that everyone INCLUDING STAFF were not wearing masks, and I’m assuming the kitchen staff were not. We wanted to support a local family business, but we were appalled at the disregard for the pandemic. Wearing a mask is literally THE LEAST YOU CAN DO to show fellow humans that you care. After waiting for our order and observing the gross display of disregard for safety, we left. We were so disgusted we didn’t mind losing our $17. They can keep our money. And for management: don’t say that you take health safety seriously if you actually do not.
Normally we love this restaurant, but they are not being mindful of the current pandemic in our world. Everyone has their own levels of comfort, but as a food and service industry the customers aren’t in mind. Upon walking in, multiple servers did not wear a mask or had one then removed it, and this includes the cook and hostess staff. We wanted to try going out to a local favorite who we thought would have good measures in place, and to give our business to, but we’re very disappointed and will not be returning.
Excellent food cooked to perfection.Great carry out pizza and wings.
My sister requested Pistol Petes. She lives in Michigan. I went with her request. So disappointed. I know better. Couldve gotten a superb pizza from.Marcos on 84/Lisbon DELIVERED, but I went with her request. Got sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, onions. The worst part was the canned veggies. Canned mushrooms, canned green peppers. Awful. Shouldnt be. I also had to pay $2 extra dollars for paying ahead of time/on the phone. Extra daggers in my wallet.I love Marcos and even Papa Johns. Both are fresh and delicious. I do not recommend.
Very busy! Staff running like Olympians!!! We like Pistol Petes!!!
Food tasty but service was slow, food cold and waited 25 minutes to pay after payment was put in sleeve. We had 2 ppl in our party table behind us came in after us they had 3ppl they ate and left before us. My opinion it was because of our skin color.
The wait staff was quick and cordial and served us delicious cups of hot coffee as well as a variety of other adult beverages. There’s a large dance-hall area with a bandstand, and there was a live band playing. They knew a lot of great songs, and everyone had a wonderful time. This is not the fanciest place in the world, but any place that features live music and dancing is OK in my book!
Great food, great price, great service. Fried chicken and fried fish are my top favorites.
Loved Tracy. She was a pistol! My sister loved the schmelt and our perch was tasty.
Great food, outstanding service and lots of space! Will definitely go back
First time here and the food was SCRUMPTIOUS 😋 I will definitely be back!
Food was decent, but tool FOREVER to get. We had ordered pickup bit still waited a half hour after our pickup time to get the food.Also pretty much NO MASKS. Almost no staff, same with clientele - and Im not referring to those who were eating.If this is their approach to health, we will not be returning.
Great food, great service. Nice atmosphere .
It wasnt very busy but we waited an awfully long time at the bar for service. One employee walked passed our empty drinks multiple times, and only stopped by when she realized she left her cell phone in front of us... but still didnt ask if we needed a refill. Pizza was ok though.
Pizza and beer special on Wednesday night is fantastic. The waitresses are always helpful and pleasant to deal with. Will be back.
It was great, service too!
I had ordered a lot of food yesterday, and there were quite a few mistakes.. First though the food was great.. although the bbq wings did not seem the same as they usually were they didn’t have as much sauce as they usually do... I asked for extra ranch and blue cheese and it was on ticket and we only received ranch.. I wasn’t sure if I was charged or not as I didn’t get a itemized receipt. Also asked for no tomatoes on a wrap I ordered and there was tomatoes on it.. the other issue was I ordered the soup which I was told was a baked potato soup but what I received was a broccoli soup.. we also ordered a pizza and that was excellent!
This is a great town bar. The customer service here is really good. I was very impressed with our waitress who took care of us very well. The pizza here is good although I wish they had spinach. I definitely like the cozy vibe and its a very comfortable environment.I would also recommend the Southwest nachos but I think that is because I love nacho cheese.
Great fish fry! Bartender was pretty rude and did not know how to make drinks. The rude service made me not want to come back.
Arrived at the restaurant about 6:25. Finally got seated around 6:40. server arrived about 10 minutes later and only took drink orders despite our stating we were ready to order our meal. Took 10 minutes to get drinks, another 10 minutes to get our order taken about 15 to 20 minutes to get the food. In total about an hour to get served. Food is always good but service can be questionable. Finally left about 1:45 after arriving. One of the worst service nights we have experienced. Restaurant was not busy. Most had left shortly after we arrived.
Call in order food was hot and ready when i arrived
Great atmosphere, great food, and great staff.
Overall was not impressed by the value of the food. Showed up with 6 people and took well over an hour to get food and second order of drinks. Apps were good, burgers and fish fry were maybe a 5/10. Culvers is better. Our waitress was nice but luckily we didnt get the one with the keep america great facemask.
We are regulars here on Wednesdays. We like the the pizza/wing special on that day. The staff is friendly and the service is good. A nice neighborhood place.
Terrible service. Food is sub par. Adding garage doors to let the rodents and flies in not a great idea.
Carry out:Soggy lettuce and too much dressing on a caesar salad, no masks on staff, messed up order. Just a place trying to survive when they should just close. Awful.
Horrible waitstaff. We miss the friendly college boys.
Ive always liked the Prime rib sandwich. Didnt care much for the onion rings. They seemed industrial. Goofy problem with price of sandwiches. The prices had gone up but hadnt made it to the menu yet but we were charged the new price. There were some signs about it in the front foyer but I didnt see them.
Great food. Friendly staff.
Fish fry was okay...fish was a little over cooked...potato pancakes a 6 on a scale of 10.. mushroom swiss burger good but skimpy on the fries...kids chicken strips not great...
Great service.
One of the few bars that had a band outside. Was a great time and great music
Good food! Waitress not very attentive .seemed like she just wanted to go home. Brought check way before we were ready to leave. We went and sat at the bar at that point!
The fish fry was one of the best Ive had in a long time! The wait was long after we ordered since it was busy but worth the wait! Reasonable prices!
You will not be disappointed with your visit to Pistol Petes! It is family owned and run - there is actually a Pete who is there most of the time. We have been going there for years and I have never had a bad meal. The service is great too!
Great food.
Best chicken dinner in the city
Great ribs all there salad dressing is home made. Great service. And a great atmosphere. We will definitely go back there to eat.
This is my go to spot for beer and wings and the occasional game. Most of the time everything is good. I love the wings both with and without sauce. I usually order them without and get sauce on the side for my groups.The beer is always cold and the staff is always very friendly. The only reason I gave it four stars is because of some odd things. They are open pretty late in the day, never for lunch on the weekends. They have been closed on prime days in the summer time and we have had to change plans because of this. Finally, some of the service has been slow (last night we waited for 15 minutes for the waitress to get back to our table for drinks).Overall I love coming to this place and look forward to my next visit.
Great pizza and great char grilled burgers.
Not a fan of the atmosphere or food. Couldnt decide if this was fine dining, bar or a pizza place. Weird vibe. Nachos were soaked in liquid cheese. Pizza sauce had no flavor.
Great lasagna and fried chicken. The homemade bread and cinnamon honey butter was tasty. Our waiter, Andrew, was an excellent server. We loved our dinner!
This is a very good place to eat. Food quality is decent,but to be honest, I usually have some kind of Italian dish, so I cant comment on the steaks or anything else. The chicken parmigiana is always a good bet. The restaurant is divided into two parts, one side is kind of a nice, cozy dining room, the other side is like a cafeteria/bar. The cafeteria side is bigger, and not very quiet or relaxing, but probably more fun! The only thing negative about this place is that the drinks are really weak.
Took us an hour from the time we sat down to get our food... With 3 young kids at the table. We got our food 40 minutes after ordering. Service and food were fine but not worth the awful wait. The waitress clearly had her hands full.
This is always a family favorite to visit! With great weekly specials including ribs on Thursdays and a fish fry on Friday, this is a great place to come back to again and again. Service is always great! This is a place that has a busy dinner rush so plan enough time. I will be back soon!
The bartender Kendra is one of the main reasons I keep coming back. Very friendly and attentive. Great food and staff
Great atmosphere! Seafood platter was amazing, definitely recommend it!!! Food took a long time, but quality made it worth the wait.
Went for the Thursday all you can eat chicken and ribs. Was not disappointed. For $12 you get both chicken and ribs, for $9 you can do either or, cant beat it. Ribs were cooked perfectly and fell off the bone, and the sauce was great. Chicken was also cooked perfect. The split dining is a great idea too, one area for a bar experience, and one for a more casual dining. Will definitely be coming back.
I have gone here for the fish fry several times, which is very good. However, I recently discovered the pizza which is absolutely awesome. Thats our go-to thing now. This is our favorite pizza place. The pizza and pitchers special is especially fun!
Food was good and hot. Others were concerned with the service. I was fine. We have been here before and we will be back
We arrived tonight to a full house, luckily we had a table reserved for our large group. Its our favorite place for a Friday night fish fry when we visit from Florida. We werent disappointed the fish fry was excellent. I highly recommend Pistol Petes.
We were seated very quickly and placed our beverage a dinner order at the same time. It took a bit of time for our order to come. We noticed that the table next to us has ordered an appetizer and when they placed their dinner order they were told there was at least a 45min wait! Another table was told the same thing. We were all there for the fish fry. How do you not have enough food available for a Friday Nite Fish Fry??? Baffling. 😕
We called to ask if we could use restaurant.com gift cards for take out (during this COVID time), and was told we could, so we placed an order. We even ordered extra food that we did not want to get to the minimum order amount per the gift card rules. When we went to pick up the food they would not accept the gift card and made us pay for the whole thing out of pocket. If you dont want to accept the gift cards, donl lie to us upfront just to make us place an order. The waitress checked with the manager, and they would not honor it. This seems like a very shady establishment, and we will not be returning in the future.
Great fish fry and the Philly wrap was one of the best weve ever had.
Good burger was pink in the middle like we asked for.
Horrible experience.we used to go there every week with 2 families when they have wing night. Last visit was an absolute joke. We ordered at 6:45 pm and at 7 they told us they are out of wings for the special. We could order regular wings of the menu which are about the same size. Then they told us on soda its a 1 refill only after the kids had their first. The waitress was completely clueless and we never have been told that before. Any topping pizza special means bacon cost extra....my friends and I will never go back.when we asked for a manager to see if they want to do anything about the wings some lady came up who seems to have no clue how to manage a restaurant telling us basically f u customer...not in those words but in her actions...well thats 400 dollars a month we will spend somewhere else......this place used to be great but is a joke now.
Been going to Pistol Petes for years for food as well as the music. Never disappointed. Fun time with friends and family. Pizza and fish fry are excellent.
The food was amazing as always. We love going for their fish fry. However, Im three months pregnant and found a long, thick, black hair wrapped around the cherries in my drink (clearly from the long black haired bar tender). Needless to say I lost my fish fry in the bathroom and they never offered to comp the drink or the food. Bad customer service when you know there is a problem.
It was my first time there. I had a great evening with friends and business partners. The food was good. The bathroom was smaller than expected. It was louder than expected at times and a little difficult to converse but overall it was a good experience.
Service was bad ask for things that never came four of us 2 meals came had to wait 20 min.for the other two. The water was 👅.had the fish it was ok .They took on of the meals offPS Wont go back
Excellent local pub and restaurant with reasonable prices. Decent beer tap selection. They have some of the best wings (crispy, dry rub) and pizza (thin and crispy with creative, homemade toppings). Great place to watch games, especially the Packers (although it can get packed).
Although we are from Texas, Pistol Petes is one of her absolute favorite pizza places. They are also famous for their fish fries. 75% of their menu is absolutely superb. Im giving them five stars but I wish I had the option to give them four and a half. The only thing that I would improve with the restaurant is that it has cheap tables and chairs. That one little upgrade would move this restaurant higher up on the rating scale. I highly recommend stopping in at Pistol Petes when youre in Brookfield Wisconsin.
I will preface this with it was a busy Saturday. But... my burger was a bit undercooked, they didnt really get my order quite right, my wifes salad was comical, and it took forever to get out of there because apparently our server was the only one capable of taking care of our check (?) On the plus side, my wife liked her entree and the wings were good. I think their biggest winners are chicken and pizza.
I arrived on time to pick up my takeout but there was a problem at the register. It took nearly 15 minutes to correct it, totally ruining my experience. There was a line of 15 people waiting to get their food because these girls couldnt figure out the cash register. My food was cold my fish was soggy it was the most horrible experience Ive had in a long time. I doubt I will ever return.
Great food. My only complaint would be the staff. When you come in to eat they act as if you are bothering them. Not very friendly at all. They need fun staff to welcome quests. Food great staff not so great.
It was ok. Had the french dip it tasted all right but was only served with a portion cup of beef juice it was not enough. Only one waitress and the place was busy
I have yet to have a bad food experience at this place. The ribs are good, burgers are good, and the pizza is great! The pitcher and pizza deal was very satisfactory. I am surprised I finished a pitcher and nearly a whole pizza by myself, but it was THAT good!Will be back, have visited many times.
Fish fry is great but my only issue is the dog that is by the kitchen. I saw the waitresses and cook pet the dog many times and then handle everyones food without washing. Please fix this because I would really like to come back but wont until the dog is not in the restaurant.
Food was good....once we finally sat down it took another hour+ to get our food.
Took our children here tonight. We could not have felt less welcome if the place was closed. We sat in the dining room, not the banquet room, because that is where we sat the last time we were there. As we walked in to the dining room, every single staff member we saw gave us disparaging looks. We waited about 10 minutes before Andrew (who was great!) came over to help us. Kids were told that the boss doesnt let kids have crayons because they will scratch the table. They were given crayons the previous time we visited Pistol Petes. If you dont want kids in the dining room, say it before we entered. Or give us a chance to move to the banquet room. We truly felt that we did not belong, that we were not wanted and that we should leave. We ate our pizza quicklu and headed out. Not even a good bye or thank you for coming. We will not be back....at least until our kids are adults and feel welcome at Pistol Petes.
Blackened Tuna and Italian breaded cod fish fry were good. Fries, slaw, baked potato all good. Our waitress was great. Clean with nice trim. Priced accurately. While eating some of fried dishes that went past us did not look appetizing.
Kinda small portions for the price but the food tastes excellent.
