Matt SzenicsDecember 24, 2012Try the Picantito if you want a good drink with a kick. A pepper-infused pisco kick.
Laura BedrossianDecember 6, 2015If Peruvian decor traditionally makes you feel as though you're in a tinder box then Pio Pio NAILED it.
Nicolette RomeroNovember 2, 2014The Matador combo is a must! Great to share and you'll leave stuffed!
Petar IvanovApril 15, 2017Pros: Good sangria, friendly place good for families and groups of friends. Cons: It looks like it's made in a basement, kinda dark and not really comfortable. Not much choice on the menu either.- 陳雄暉 弟兄March 6, 2015Roasted chicken meat falls off the bones like it's supposed to. Seafood paella is sumptuously delicious.
Tasted ceviche for the first time... simply delicious... slurp slurp. Love the corvina fish ;) my new fav....
Jennifer Padilla-HowardJanuary 30, 2013I love the green sauce and the white sangria. Love the ambiance of the hells Kitchen Pio Pio.
The interior is pleasant and the food very well prepared. The ceviche is a good choice.
Courtney LynchFebruary 11, 2018The atmosphere is nice, but the food has no flavor! The fish, rice, and sauce tasted the same (like air) for both of our dishes. I mentioned this to the waiter & it seems the chef is afraid of flavor
jordan yuenSeptember 8, 2016The Matador Combo was delish! Had a group of 3 and still couldn't finish it all.
Shirin HNovember 18, 2012Get the matador combo and replace the salchipapa (fries and "beef sausage" i.e. fried hotdog) with the sweet plantains.
Tipu SwaranNovember 19, 2013Refreshing Sangria + Awesome seabass (Mero Norteno).. highly recommended
Jannica RobertsonApril 18, 2012Get the Matador combo! Chicken Pio is great but, can't beat the French fries topped with hot dogs!
Mary Jeneverre SchultzMarch 20, 2016Make reservations because the restaurant packs even during week days.
Karthik BalasubramanianJanuary 20, 2014Huge portions, great food! Don't forget to try the tres leches!
Ingrid ForeroAugust 26, 2010Best chicken and ceviche!!! Beautiful place...and sangria is awesome!!! My boyfriend and I are addicted to this place, we love it....
My wife and I come here on weekly basis and order the same things--Lomo Saltado and Arroz con Mariscos.
Matador combo...hands down...best deal. Share with 1 (maybe 2?) other people. Get the sangria... it's pricey but strong and good!
Best lunch special in the 'hood! Quarter chicken plus two sides and a drink for $10! Dios mio!
