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.

This place is amazing & the food is awesome!
It took me more than 6 months to review this place but I never forgot the beautiful connection me & my father had with the owner who is also the head chef! He even prepared a special sauce for us when I realised we are Mexican.
Amazing food, impeccable service & beautiful people behind this!

Très déçu du service. Hier j'ai commandé pour plus de 80$ & j'ai donné 100$ a la personne à la caisse en lui disant de garder le reste comme pourboire. Arrivé chez moi, il manquait pleins de choses dans ma commande, le riz, les natas & les boissons. Contenu que je ne suis pas de la ville de Québec je ne pouvais pas revenir. Je trouve ça très décevant de ne pas s'assurer que la commande soit complète avant de le remettre au client.

Planche à partager pour 2 🤤 à prix plus qu'abordable & la quantité parfaite pour 2 bons mangeurs! Tout est fait maison!!! La sauce à côtes levées (blanche & vinaigrée est créative & harmonieuse!!!!)

Le hasard fait parfois bien les choses. Nous y avons été très bien accueillis & le repas était parfait; très bon & en suffisance.

Waited an hour for food due to the order never getting placed, they acknowledged the mistake & comped drinks but that still doesn't get back the hour spent hungry. Food was otherwise delicious & well seasoned, great selection of draft & canned beer. I rate this a 3/5 for personal experience, but im sure anyone else would have a great time

My husband & I enjoyed a great meal here & recommend this restaurant. It is steps away from the main attractions in Quebec city. The service & customer attention was great. We wanted to eat Portuguese food & it was delicious! Very reasonably priced for the amount of food.
