Being a Phoenix native, I almost felt embarassed that I only ate at Pete's for the first time seven years ago. \nI had gotten back from England and was trying to recreate the orgasmic fish and chips experience I had there. Pete's was around the corner from my complex and after all, I DID see so many  of those \"I'm Addicted to Pete's Fish & Chips\" bumper stickers all around Tempe. I had to try it.\n\nI ordered the two fish combo, and my reaction was...what the..?..are they serious? \n\n1.) The \"chips\" suuuuck. No salt, overcooked and stiff. I couldn't even eat them. \n2) The two squares of fish I got were alright, but I may as well have gone to Safeway and bought a box of Gorton's fish sticks. \n3.) The red \"special sauce\".  Wtf? And you have to pay extra if you want tarter? Lame. \n4.) No malt vinegar. Enough said. \n\nWhy there is such a collective hard-on for this place is beyond me. It's a laughably bad example of Fish and Chips.
