text: Petes Fish and Chips has a reputation for being legendary in the Phoenix valley so of course I had to try it And wow what a missnnFirst of all they had outdoor seating only which is not so bad I guess Oh wait no we are in Phoenix does not it get to be about degrees F outside in the summer Sounds like a blastnnSecondly they have no tartar sauce or malt vinegar How on earth do you even run a fish place with no tartar sauce Malt vinegar is a little more uncommon but for petes lol sake even McDonalds has Tartar saucennThird the fish itself Speaking of McDonalds that is what I am reminded of this is not batter dipped and fried fillets of fish this is minced and formed and covered in a crunchy crumbly breading like what you would find on a Mcdonalds fish sandwichnnFourth they only take cash What year is itnnThe red sauce they give you is OK but it is more like a shrimp sauce I am sure it would be great on that It definitely does not belong on fishnnTheir Hamburgers though are quite good and very inexpensive If you go to Petes get one of those Skip the fish it is awful I have no idea how this place became so popular on such awful fish and chips An Englishman would burn this place to the ground
