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.

I just think this place is overpriced, half a chicken meal will cost you 26 before tax & tips. & the famous Portugese roast chicken is a bit plain & average. The rice is actually better than the chicken.

On indique sur le site que tu peux apportez ton vin ce qui est faux. On nous a refusé. Le poulet n'était pas très tendre. Il ne se défaisait pas facilement. Déception...

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

The food was pretty good...but oh my goodness the service was severely lacking 🙃 I'd do takeout if I was craving chicken - but not eat in again.

Depuis leur déménagement, ce n'est plus du tout la même expérience. Portions peu généreuses, saveurs ordinaires, service plutôt brouillon -- bien que sympathique. Ambiance un peu cafétéria. Je ne conseille pas.

This was the best chicken I have ever had! I would eat here every day if I lived in Quebec. My friend said the same thing. I had the chicken leg with rice & green salad. It was healthy, filling & just absolutely amazing!

The half chicken was delicious, although a little dry, but we ate it all. The pea soup & fries were also delicious. The bill was reasonable. Nice staff. We would come again.
