It's a marathon," he said as he was wrapping silverware at the table closest to the kitchen. The small restaurant was partitioned into a modest dining room, giving the majority of the space to the kitchen in the back that was currently putting my sampler together. It was in response to a regular, who was pleased with her food today and commended my choice of meal. She also asked me what caused me to stop in. Obviously, I couldn't reveal that I was collecting restaurant reviews like a 14 year-old Brad collected Pokémon cards, so I mumbled something about noticing the place after having driven by it a few times.In reality, I've driven past it hundreds of times over the past four years but have finally reached the point where I've run out of other places to go. The fact of the matter is that seafood is still something that Wichita approaches trepidatiously, especially when it's not sushi or a high-end restaurant where we can use the price as a means to assure ourselves that it's fresh. In this respect, Pirate Pete's should be commended for their commitment to the cheap seafood shack; while they're easy to come by in other parts of the country, Pete's and Wichita Seafood Company are really the only two that manage to fill the gap between Newport Grill and Long John Silver's.If anything, it gives them more motivation to produce a quality product, and they hedge their bets by largely focusing on the seafood and the preparation methods that they know they can do: this means lots of catfish and Pollock, and lots of frying. LOTS of frying. On the one hand, they are able to fry admirably well under varying circumstances - the thin slices of Pollock were plenty crispy in their panko-crusted exterior, while the eye-poppingly large catfish fillet was treated to a simple cornmeal coating before meeting the heat. They were both very well prepared and plenty fresh, though the lack of salt to either made both taste flat.The freshly-made onion rings were almost as large as the catfish, and even though the onion started to slip out of its crusty exterior, I was still a fan. Coleslaw got the job done. In a respite from everything else, the grilled zucchini, squash, and broccoli made me feel a tiny bit better about eating all of that fried food, though really the vegetables has as much oil as the rest of the meal. It ended up being a stomach achingly large amount of grease. The vegetables were heavily seasoned, which I appreciated. With a name like Pirate Pete's it's difficult to take the restaurant seriously, but they certainly don't cut corners when it comes to the product. It's mostly fried, and needs to be seasoned a little bit more, but barring that, Pirate Pete's is a very viable option when you're looking for some seafood without having to dress up and make reservations.
See if you can get a picture with pirate Pete
From the businessSpecialtiesPirate Pete's Seafood is a small restaurant that specializes in Catfish and Pollock. We have Chicken for those who aren't quite a fan of fish. We would love for you to come in and have a seat in our recently remodeled restaurant, which, is now also under new management as of 2014.HistoryEstablished in 2014.We recently took over Ownership and changed out the Management of this Location. We chose to keep the name and location along with several of the recipes. We had to update some of our menu items; however, Tax is Now Included in all prices on our menu.
It has to be better that the Long John's Silvers I had for lunch yesterday.
1000x better than Long John Silvers.
Have you guys been to Wichita Fish Co. ? Serious question.
Can't believe it took this long. Our office single handily kept him in business probably an additional 4 months.
I'm not sure where this should go. http://m.cjonline.com/blog-post/tim-carpenter/2015-10-01/kansas-casino-bidder-busted-public-nudity#gsc.tab=0
