TL;DR - Holy beans, Batman! Do yourself a favor and make room in your itinerary for a nice, joyful meal that feels like you're being brought into the family's own dining room. First off, let me just say that the staff wins an award for courtesy and kindness. Full context: we have 3 kids: one almost-no-longer-a-toddler, one toddler, and one 15 month old who is currently in his phase of exploring gravity. So, we slid into the booth - could feel the springs- not terrible, but a little uncomfortable and unsteady (especially for little ones who need to kneel to reach the table. The table in the middle of the restaurant was slid away and chairs removed to make space for our high chair. Then, a cup of water for every mouth - with lids on the littles' cups - big cheer!! But then, the littlest hands struck, tossing the whole cup on the floor. The water mostly spread under our table but a little into the walkways of the rest of the restaurant. And just like that, we became THOSE people smh. The staff were so nice about it. Little by little we were able to clean it incrementally throughout the meal, soaking it up with additional layers of paper towels. The response of the staff was gentle - our server even went as far as to tell us he has grandchildren of his own and loves them so. The overall feel was that of "don't worry, we have family and know what it's like." If anything, they seemed to more appreciate my littlest one because of his joyful disposition than show any concerns about how messy he was. That said, the food we got was worth the visit. For my little ones, we got them quesadillas (hard to beat cheese and tortillas for kiddos that say ketchup is spicy), and they both tucked into the beans in a way that both surprised us and that we celebrated. For my wife and I, we split the Tacos Gobernador (the 15 month old loved that, too) - they were flavorful and I highly recommend it! On every plate, there was a LOT of spiced rice and Beans with a capital B - refried style, and thin. Don't get me wrong, it was all tasty (the salsas on the table to begin with all the way to the mock margaritas at the end). The kids' food was somewhat quotidian, but that's not necessarily a bad thing when it comes to getting toddlers to eat. Overall, we left feeling appreciated, which goes much farther than just staking a meal's quality on food.

We stopped by around 3 ish they were not busy at all only 1 other table yet the older gentleman who was our waiter seemed bothered and rushed. He brought out our drinks that looked quickly thrown together. The food tasted great but the drinks and service was disappointing.

They used to be so good. Food was blah and sauces were watered down. The staff were still kind and attentive.

During my recent visit to Don Pedro in St. George, Utah, I had the pleasure of experiencing what I can best describe as a genuine slice of Mexican culinary tradition. The restaurant presents itself with a subtle charm, offering a warm and inviting ambiance that pairs well with their service. The staff, all of whom are Mexican, add an authentic touch to the dining experience, enhancing the overall atmosphere with genuine hospitality.The menu at Don Pedro offers a variety of traditional dishes, each prepared with care and attention to detail. The flavors were well-balanced, capturing the essence of Mexican cuisine without overwhelming the palate. It’s a nice spot for anyone looking to enjoy a casual meal with a taste of Mexico.Service was prompt and courteous, with the staff making every effort to ensure a pleasant dining experience. The environment of the restaurant complements the food, with decor that reflects the vibrant culture of Mexico.In conclusion, Don Pedro is a commendable choice for those in St. George looking to enjoy Mexican cuisine in a relaxed setting. While not overly extravagant, it provides a satisfying experience that pays homage to the rich culinary traditions of Mexico.

Good was not what I wanted. The total price was way too much 60$ for three breakfast burritos is crazy. Will never go to this place again. I waited for my food for over 45 minutes with an empty restaurant. Not ok.
