About

Grillades Pico Loco centers its culinary identity on the robust preparation of authentic Portuguese charcoal-grilled meats. Succulent whole chickens are marinated in traditional piri-piri spice blends, yielding a smoky exterior and tender, flavorful flesh that defines the core menu. Accompaniments like hand-cut fries and fresh vegetable salads provide classic balance to the rich, charred profiles of the protein offerings. The atmosphere emphasizes a functional, high-output approach to Mediterranean grilling that prioritizes speed and intense flavor extraction. Diners experience the unmistakable aroma of open-flame cooking as intense heat transforms simple ingredients into savory staples. This establishment maintains a commitment to the foundational techniques of Iberian cookery, ensuring every plate reflects a consistent dedication to the craft of the grill through meticulous flame management and quality ingredient selection.

C'est une très belle découverte. Les prix sont très abordables. La bouffe est excellente. C'est un endroit un peu en retrait du bruit du centre-ville. Nous avons beaucoup aimé.

Ca vaut la peine de payer un parking.
Le poulet est delicieux autant que l'ambiance.
Vive l'été & pouvoir souper sur le bord de la fenêtre.
Merci Marianna
