This chain was recommended to us by several Peruvian folks. We found it to be authentic cuisine at a quick, easy spot for a pre-theater casual dinner that serves generous portions of Peruvian food. It is easy to eat dairy-free here. We tried a variety of things in a quick dinner run before attending a Broadway show. Chicken soups were served in a generous portion with ample portions of meat, veggies and noodles with a broth that had delightful flavor not greasy at all! My partner...read full review
Great food and excellent service 👌
We sat upstairs so the atmosphere was much better than the loud downstairs dining room. All the food tastes great but they use a pretty small chicken for their rotisseries. The portions for the calamari and plantains was very good for the price. The service was absolutely splendid. I would recommend but you should know thst a half chicken is probably not enough for two people.

It extends to a decent-sized dining area downstairs with different seating options and simple, nice decor. Overall, Pio Pio 8 provides a good dining experience with quality food and friendly service.
