Editorial Review for Petey's Bungalow Lounge Incorporated – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Thrift store paintings, Christmas lights and Mediterranean-inspired light fixtures make up the vintage decor, at this throwback restaurant, where the menu reads, "May we suggest a cocktail before and after dinner." The nostalgic menu brims with classic American dishes, from super-crispy pan-fried chicken and bone-in strip steak to shrimp de Jonghe in sherry-garlic sauce. Another retro touch: All dinners include two rounds of relishes, soup or tomato juice, salad, garlic bread, potato, coffee and dessert.

I have been a loyal Petey's patron for years, but lately the cuts of steak have declined and no matter how I've ordered them, they were a let down, not to mention, far too much gristle. I've since discovered Louie's on 103rd and Cicero. Sorry Petey.
Pros: Petey and the staff.
Cons: Too crowded of a setting. The meat has gone downhill.

We've been coming to Petey's for years. The appetizers are great - one of my favorites is their saganaki. Love their Grecian style steaks (their extra cut filet is one of my favorites) and seafood - - excellent flavor and incredible portions! I also love their chicken dishes--like the chicken vesuvio and the fried chicken, and the thick broiled pork chops. Another favorite is their baby back ribs -- the most tender in town. When I'm looking for something on the lighter side or a late night snack, one of my favorites is their famous Petey burger --the best burger in town! Everything is so delicious, I always have a hard time deciding what to order. Great place for carry outs after a long day at work, too! (Sure beats fast food for dinner -- we do about 2 take outs a week from Petey's.) We also like to hangout at the bar for a cocktail or two to unwind after work -- the bartender is great and the drinks are reasonably priced. Excellent food! Great prices! Friendly atmosphere --everyone makes us feel at home at Petey's. Great place to entertain out of town guests or business associates.
