A word from Picasso Restaurant & Bar

Seafood bouillabaisse is a house favorite of this artist namesake, but the menu is a fusion of flavors from Italy, Spain and the South of France. The main dining room is very private and elegant. In the bar, music – from jazz to reggae – announces the late night scene which is fueled by the… French-inspired bistro menu.Continued

"Our waiter was charming but did not come around much. Food and coffee were delived by others. One of our entrees delivered was the wrong item, had to be sent back and wait (not long) for correct entree to come. Coffee was delivered cold - seriously cold. Correcting the errors took time because the waiter was not around much, we had to flag down other staff. On the bright side, the entrees were really yummy. The restaurant just need to fix the service levels. We would go back and try again, once, for the good food, but if we have a similar experience that will be it."

"The food was good. It was definitely a night out and priced so it cannot be your regular Saturday night. Six adults, three children, a few drinks was about $300."

"Went to Picasso for the first time with my husband and another couple. We were seated immediately in a high backed booth near the front windows. Very nice restaurant and atmosphere. Our waiter came over very quickly to take our drink order. He was very knowledgeable on the specials and the large variety of beers offered. Very attentive waiter and wait staff. The Seafood Paella dish and the Seafood pasta dish were enjoyed . I had the sirloin steak. It was okay. They had a spinach risotto for an appetizer that I had that was wonderful. I tried my husband Paella and it was delicious. Mussels were great. Dessert was wonderful they have a crepe with Nutella. Very good. Will definitely go back. My children were with a sitter. Not for kids."

"Other than delivery of drinks and food being a bit slow, this was a great find. FOod was really good, generous portions. We did entrees though, not tapas. Will go back."

"The food was amazing. Each one of us commented on how perfectly our meal was spiced, and how delicious it was. For once, I took home leftovers with the intent of actually eating them again!"

Quiet

"Had dinner on a Wednesday night and it was very quiet. Food was enjoyable, but nothing out of this world. We ate tapas with veggie kabob, croquettes, steak, and chorizo polenta. Unfortunately, for Picasso, we just returned from Madrid less than a week ago so it was a tough comparison and Picasso could not compete. Every thing was good but not memorable."

"We picked this restaurant for dinner with friends and were disappointed. The food was very good, but that was the high point. Our table was in a noisy area so it was hard to talk. Our chairs had no backs (padded stools)so after a 2-1/2 hour dinner we were uncomfortable. I mentioned on Open Table that I would like a quiet booth so our group could easily talk. We got a high bar table, stools next to the bar that was noisy. Everything was ala carte so it was $100 for two of us. Quite pricey for an okay dining experience."

"2 of the 3 tapas meals were bland. The beef dish was very very tasty. Drinks were fun and creative, loved the cheesecake martini. Reasonable prices and our waitress was charming and energetic."
