La nourriture était sèche et sans saveurs.
Sur 6 personnes à notre table, nous sommes unanimes: personne n’a aimé… très déçue, les commentaires étaient pourtant excellents… est-ce seulement à cause du déménagement??

Grillades Pico Loco (Poulet Portugais) offers a delicious Portuguese cuisine experience, specializing in fire-grilled meats. Diners praise the smoky charred and savory meats with a deep umami flavour, noting generous portions and appetizing meals. Specific highlights include the homemade sausage, picanha, chicken, and pork chop, often featured on platters like the Grilled Discovery Platter, perfect for sharing.
The chicken, whether for kids or as a dinner plate, is consistently described as fabulous, well-prepared, and super tasty, with crispy skin and juicy, tender meat. Sausages are a standout, handmade and distinct from industrial tastes, with just the right saltiness. Roast pork chops and shrimp are also roasted to perfection. The restaurant also serves unique fried potatoes with a special sweetness, made from locally sourced ingredients.
Beyond the food, Grillades Pico Loco is noted for its amazing 10/10 service and nice ambiance, contributing to memorable experiences. While service can sometimes be a bit slow due to limited staff, the flavour of the food is always amazing. Staff are described as genuinely kind, welcoming, and helpful, with a team of young people passionate about their work. The restaurant boasts a casual, laid-back, and warm atmosphere, making it a great choice for families and those looking for a casual spot with good food and a positive vibe. The piri piri sauce is also a highly recommended, amazing addition. Grillades Pico Loco is a reasonably priced establishment that has remained a beloved spot in Quebec City for a decade, offering a taste that reminds some of home.
