So sad that Piqueo's will be closing this weekend. We live their food. Love the Lomo Saltido, pork shoulder, wild salmon and their garlic sautéed spinach!

One of my fav neighborhood spots that has great value, great flavorful food, and good ambience. They close early and can get crowded sometimes so always try and make a reservation vs just showing up. Unfortunately this evening they were out of a few things I wanted to order but with a great menu it’s rarely too much a disappointment as I’ve never had a dish here I didn’t enjoy. Don’t let the hipster yuppies know about this place, TikTok! Keep it chill.

Definitely a must try. The house chips were stale but everything else was pretty good. Good presentation on the Ceviche Mixto. Yuka fries were ok. Portion size on the Lolo Saltado could be better. Alfajores and the Dulce de leche dessert were just ok too

My husband and I went to Piqueo’s for Valentine’s Day and had a fantastic experience. Our table was available right away and the staff was polite. The food was delicious. We ordered the beef ribs and scallop smalls plates. My husband ordered the tuna entree and I ordered the saltado. We liked both entrees although my husband felt the tuna was slightly over done. We ended with a passion fruit panna cota. We were also given some yummy chocolate with our bill. We would definitely go there again.

Great food and great service. Definitely plan to go back! It can be noisy. The two of us rearranged our chairs to be close to each other.

Great food and service. Great gluten free options and love the variety of food available for all diets. A wonderful neighborhood joint that’s worth the 20 minute trip from my house.

Piqueos completely exceeded my expectations! I usually order from the on DoorDash so I thought it would be a great place to take my friend there for his birthday. The place is super cute with a nice ambiance and the food is always just so flavorful. The server was very attentive and they even made a nice touch to bring a small dessert as a birthday treat without me having to sneak to the bathroom and ask the server (I did put it in the reservation note, which was extremely appreciated). Overall such a fun and delicious experience. Will definitely be going back!
