Illegal Pete’s finally opened last Friday in the former home of Mama’s Cafe (and an International House of Pancakes before that) at 2001 East Colfax Avenue — and it was definitely worth the wait. The original A-frame has been stripped to its bones and filled with a sleek kitchen and seating; outside, there’s a big adjacent patio — and parking! The place is already getting raves. Says Amy:
So glad they used the eyesore space and made it new.
Adds Michael:
Very cool design!
Concludes Eileen:
Oh, boy, can’t wait to go.
