Thank goodness for Illegal Pete’s

I’m becoming a bigger and bigger fan Illegal Pete’s. When I worked in Downtown the one on 16th street was my favorite lunch place, not just because their steak burrito is incredibly yummy, but because they have free wifi. Can’t beat that! I think Lodo has free wifi all over now, it’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed lunch up there.

Fast forward to.. now and I’m working in the Tech Center and low and behold, there’s an Illegal Pete’s about a mile from the office.

I highly recommend the Steak Burrito with the “hot” salsa. They’ve got a hotter salsa which is ok, but it ruins the flavor.

    I personally think that Illegal Pete’s is the best of the new-burrito restaurants. It has amazing customer service, great food, free wifi (in Downtown, DTC and Park Meadows….for sure) and a bar to boot!

    The Thursday night Geeks Who Drink is fun, but so incredibly packed. The Park Meadows location does it on Tuesday nights and it is less congested.

    I recommend the Chicken Pesto Burrito….give it a try.
