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.

came here for a late lunch/early dinner & although the restaurant was empty (which we thought may have been a bad sign) all the food was absolutely delicious. the chicken was freshly cooked, juicy, & flavourful. 1000x better than nandos. many thanks to the kind bulgarian server whom we had a great conversation with. would highly recommend this spot.

Trop cher pour rien je dirais . Nous sommes allé un samedi , c'était vide. On a voulu tenter quand même. Petite musique , ambiance relax, toutefois avons du faire signe au jeune serveur pour commander & on a eu enfin de l'eau , malgré qu'on était les seuls. Le serveur est gentil, mais il faudrait qu'il prenne de l'assurance & aille au-devant pour une meilleure expérience. Les repas pour enfant est 12 dollard mais ne contient quun gros tas de frite avec un seul morceau de poulet (1 pilon ou 1 cuisse ) sans dessert inclus & sans boisson inclus . Peu de choix de drink, le menu est très pauvre. Mais le prix au final est quand même cher pour ce que c'est. On a aimé le poulet & la salade de choux mais pour ma 1ère fois portugais je ne suis pas épatée . Je ne retournerai malheureusement pas dans ce restaurant mais j'irai réessayer ailleurs.
