After two challenging years of lessons learned, Pete Turner of Illegal Pete’s has nothing but gratitude for his restaurants’ customers. Turner closed Illegal Pete’s locations for several months when the COVID-19 pandemic began, citing concern for his communities and his 400 employees. When the restaurants reopened, Turner wanted to experiment in order to survive the difficult times. Turner, the founder of Illegal Pete’s, will look to do more new things with his popular quick-service burrito chain in 2022.
