Reader support matters more than ever
We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
Illegal Pete’s, home of the fat fish burrito, has just opened its sixth location at 1744 East Evans Avenue, a textbook’s toss from the University of Denver campus. Like its other outposts, the fast-casual coastal Mexican, whose beer-battered fish filets (and counter staff that mixes up your burrito ingredients) have made the joint somewhat of a local phenom, is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and on Friday and Saturday until 2:30 a.m. Best thing about the joint? It has a full bar.
