Pete’s Kitchen is a traditional diner with an open kitchen, bar & booth seating, and an addition that is similar to covered patio seating. I ordered breakfast for dinner on this first visit and it did not disappoint. Ordered the Chef’s Special breakfast which comes with two pancakes, two eggs, ham, bacon, or sausage, and hash browns. I requested both bacon and sausage and my waitress came in with the winning suggestion of sausage links over patties, which were fantastic. I also added some grilled biscuits. The food was simple and absolutely delicious. I love going to diners like Pete’s and posting up with a good book. I will definitely be back!

This place has great food and a very pleasant, laid-back vibe. I love traditional counter-serve diners, so it was nice to experience that here. The food was great. As mentioned in other reviews, the fries are wonderfully crispy, and they paired nicely with the proprietary hot sauces.The service was great, too. It just >felt< like a diner, you know? My server, Nelly, was super friendly. I asked for her recommendation on what to get, and her eyes just lit up when she talked about her favorite dishes. Food just tastes better when the people making it and serving it don’t hate their jobs.

Me and my best friend used to come to Pete’s kitchen all the time when I lived in Denver, 30 years ago. Nothing’s changed. This place is still the best! Best breakfast burritos I’ve ever had, and I’ve tried a lot of breakfast burritos, all over the place! It’s truly a special treat to be able to come here this morning.

I was disappointed to say the least. Might as well call this place Pete’s Sysco Foods Outlet. Perhaps they have something on the menu that is made fresh but it isn’t the chicken fried steak, the vegetables, the gravy, or the fries. Everything on this plate is out of a frozen box.Just not sure where the 4400 reviews and 4.5 stars is coming from. ??‍♂️

Great service! The food was on point!

This is an iconic restaurant in Denver. It’s one of my favorite places to eat when I visit the city. I can always count on the food being good and the drinks being cold. Food is reasonable price and it served with a quickness. I like just about everything on the menu. I would definitely eat here again. I have no complaints. Even the restrooms are clean.

always a fantastic meal with wonderful staff!!

Good atmosphere and good food.

hashbrowns and french toast were delicious. good service as well

I come to Colorado quite a bit and finally stumbled across this place while looking for a breakfast spot today. Wow. Everything I expected from a local diner! The vibe is so cool. Everything you could possibly want for breakfast. Thought about trying the burrito, after seeing reviews, but had to go the Denver omelet way while in town. Believe they called it the Kitchen Omelet. Fresh veggies. Great taste. The hash browns were fantastic. Then I see they specialize in gyros too. Next time for sure. Tried their hot sauce and was in love. Got some to go. Is this heaven?! Quick friendly service. I have to come back immediately.
