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.

Quand on connaît le vrai poulet au BBQ en crapaudine avec la petite sauce piquante portugaise, on ne peut qu'être déçu. Même les pasteis de nata étaient vraiment très moyens.

Il manquait plusieurs items au menu lors de notre passage un samedi soir. Le poulet était ok mais sans plus. mais la sauce maison excellente. Service lent malgré le peu de clientèle. Qualité/prix est décevant.

It wasn't really authentic Portuguese chicken. Wasn't what I was expecting. The sauce comes on the chicken . You don't get extra sauce for dunking. I personally like it spicy & unfortunately it wasn't.

J'y suis allée avec mon copain il y a quelques semaines & lui n'a pas détesté (il a pris le repas cuisse avec sauce douce), mais moi j'ai été très déçue. J'ai pris le repas de cuisse avec sauce piquante & ça goutait pas très bon (& pas vraiment piquant non plus) & il y avait peu de viande sur la cuisse. La vinaigrette sur la salade était infecte. J'ai pris un café par la suite, & il goûtait l'eau. Le service était bien, mais je n'y retournerai pas & je conseille d'éviter.

The chicken was 75% fat, the spicy sauce barely registers on the scoville ladder, service was not very good

Il ne s'agit plus d'un "apportez votre vin " ils ont dernièrement changé leur formule & offre maintenant une carte des vins " ...On a dû remettre nos bouteilles dans nos sacs. Plutôt décevant car ils n'ont pas ajuster leurs prix sur leur menu en conséquence, donc cela devient plutôt dispendieux pour une assiette qui n'est pas généreuse en soi & ne ressemble pas vraiment au poulet portugais. Il n'y a aucun Piri Piri dans leur sauce ...
