Pedro’s started out on a shoestring budget in the town of Los Gatos on November 29, 1972. A twelve-table restaurant which developed an immediate following, allowing two full expansions. Two years of planning were devoted to the second unit Santa Clara, which opened its doors on May 13, 1980.

Pedro’s Restaurant has been the result of hard work and devotion. We offer a varied and unique selection of authentic Mexican creations. Santa Clara Pedro’s seats 325 people on the main floor.

    I ordered my favorite enchilada suizas which were not on the menu anymore, but the kitchen made it for me anyway. Yum.

    We had excellent service provided by the manager, seating us, our server and all of the other staff. We were the only ones in our area so it was festive and quiet and peaceful. Our food was delicious. Our server was delightful and very efficient and greatly enjoyed our dinner.

    Service was ok, upcharging for things like chips and tortillas was ridiculous. Server was lacking. I would never go back to this place.

    I have been coming to Pedro’s since early 2000’s. Food always great! Prices have been climbing steeply. Charging $6 for chips/salsa which would be complimentary in other Mexican food restaurants.

    Unfortunately the waiter was not friendly or very attentive. The food was somewhat cold and the prices have really gone up.
