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.

We were vacationing in Quebec City & found this place. Excellent service, great ambiance & delicious food. We ordered the ribs, chorizo, ceviche & grilled chicken. They are all delicious & great portions. The ceviche was especially so... it was served on top of fried plantains; Soo good!

Visited in Late January... Great chicken, arrived at exactly 5pm as resto was opening. Only drawbacks were, small serving & the fact that our young male server got replaced by a female with more experience... He was doing a great job. We did not realize this was a BYOW restaurant, & would have done so had we known. All of the restaurants near the old city want you to have reservations... Keep this in mind.

Premièrement, ne vous fiez pas à Google/leur site web, ce n'est pas un apportez votre vin. & il y a une seule bière portuguaise sur le menu & lorsqu'on la pointe/montre au serveur, il ne savait pas qu'est-ce que c'était. Deuxièmement, ça a pris au-delà de 30 mins une fois assis avant qu'on ait quelqu'un qui vienne nous voir pour offrir quelque chose à boire (vu qu'on ne pouvait pas ouvrir nos bouteilles de vin), & c'était uniquement parce qu'on lui avait très clairement fait signe. Nous nous sommes fait servir de l'eau une seule fois pendant le souper, pour en ravoir il y a fallu le redemander. La bouffe était bonne malgré des morceaux de cartilage pas mangeables dans la saucisse chorizo, ce sont des choses qui arrivent. Le service par contre, ouf.

Super pour un petit souper avec les enfants! On a bien aimé le poulet, le riz, & les pasteis de nata pour dessert! J'y retournerai si l'occasion se présente :)

We used to live their old location. However on this day we went I ordered the chicken leg meal & there was practically no meat on my piece, the skin was soggy & the interior was cold. Not impressed! Fries were good but for 20.00 it was not good. My partner had the chorizo which was not bad actually. We will not return.

Service excellent. Place propre. Par contre, nous avons commandé une assiette de poitrine & une autre de cuisse, TRÈS petite portion de poulet pour le prix!!

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 ...
