First let me dispel the claim of "Peruvian Restaurant". This place is as Peruvian as Chipotle is Mexican. In other words, este lugar sirve una mezcolanza de comidas, empanadas colombianas, arroz mexicano, pollo que ni siquiera es asado, es al horno, y hasta bandeja paisa. I'll give it one star because the rice and beans were great, but that's pretty much where it ends. The entire idea of this restaurant is rotisserie chicken, but the chicken is awful. Dry, flavorless, and not even rotisserie, and perhaps not even fresh. The food here is an amalgamation of just throwing things on a wall and seeing what hits, and the worst part is that besides its lack of identity it's also just bad. The sad part is I thought I was going to get away with just having a bad meal, but now let's just say I'll be spending the rest of the night in the bathroom.

Delicious! Have not tried Peruvian food before and found this place on Google. 1st pic is beef empanadas $3 USD each. 2nd pic is breaded chicken breast with rice, beans and plantains for $16 USD. 3rd pic is grilled pork chops with rice, beans and plantains for $16 USD. Service and food excellent. Recommend!

Authentic South American food, original mural art, festive atmosphere. Every time I eat there, fond memories of backpacking vacations south of the border come alive... The food is good, and it feels down home and special. The owner family is genuinely nice to everyone. I've taken friends there and everyone loves it. Did I mention it's affordable? They also have takeout. Eating it right now... yummy. My favorite is the pulled chicken salad with avocado, but I have yet to find something I don't like.
There may be several places LIKE Pio Pio, but the taste, quality, and authenticity of Pio Pio's food is unmatched. The chicken and sides are way better than their competitors'. For a very reasonable price, I can feed a family of 4 and still have enough for a second meal, or at least lunch the next day.

Hadn’t been to PioPio in a long time. We used to go to the one off East Blvd. the food, aromas, atmosphere and service was fantastic….as always! This one at Blackeney was so cozy. Cannot wait to go again.

The food is amazing. I've placed numerous take out orders however the language barrier is very difficult. I've placed orders and items were listed to on menu with certain entree's upon arriving home with food several items that I added additional were missing.

The portions keep getting smaller and smaller while the prices go up. These are tapa portions as the steak in a bandeja is barely an ounce
