"Petar's is a great restaurant for an easier night out. It is not too busy and you can get a reservation pretty easily. The food is tasty and the wait staff is very nice. The restaurant doubles as a pub, so the bar scene adds a laid-back ambiance to the place. This is a good place to go with friends or family for a fun night out. There is live music at 9PM (usually Thurs-Sat) as well."

"From the matradee to the waiters, everyone seemed to dread another day at work. The place needs a major uplift, peeling paint, chairs strapped together with screws and medal brackets. It just didn't feel clean.

The food was okay and fairly priced, but not worth a second visit."

"Nothing has changed except the menu. Wait person seemed rushed, special request (for an extra scoop of ice cream!!) was treated as unreasonable because they "don't allow" it, quesadilla was doughy, filled with stuff that didn't excite the taste buds. We hadn't been there in over a year; we should have stayed away this time."
