On the Grid : Pio Pio

"Enjoy family-style portions of perfectly seasoned rotisserie chicken at this popular Peruvian chain. Start with the ceviche -- zippy and fresh. Move on to the gigantic Jalea seafood platter—fried to crispy goodness. The main event here is the chicken which is served with classic Peruvian sides of rice and beans, fried yuca and salchipapas. Enjoy it with a strong Pisco Sour and douse everything in their addictive aji verde sauce — a mix of cilantro, jalapeno, lime, garlic and mayonnaise. The cavernous space with floor to ceiling windows is great for large groups and watching the local nightlife. The owner of Pio Pio is steadily building an empire along this stretch of Northern Boulevard with Juanitas, Amaru Pisco Bar and Pio To Go." - Diane Shaw
