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

Pio Pio Review - Hell's Kitchen - New York - The Infatuation

"Along with Julia Child and The Colonel, there aren’t many people in the world of chicken that we’d like to meet as much as Mama Juanita, whose name is all over the Pio Pio menu. Her namesake chicken, which is the focus at all eight locations, is better than almost any rotisserie-style bird in the city. For $10, you get a half chicken with juicy meat and a side of spicy Peruvian green sauce that balances out the sweetness of the skin. In case you want to go down the very wise path of chasing chicken with more chicken, you should get the empanadas de pollo, which are stuffed with a shredded version of Mama Juanita’s chicken." - Matt Tervooren

I’m normally not one to leave reviews but my order was so bad I just couldn’t let it pass. The mangu tasted like nothing but salt. I asked for sunny side up eggs and they were cooked well done. I asked for 2 ground beef empanadas and I received what looked like shredded pork?…honestly I’m so disappointed in the food/service that I can’t bring myself to order here ever again. If I could give 0 stars I would.

The food here is always fresh and delicious. The prices are still reasonable although they have been slightly raised since the pandemic began. The staff is always friendly and courteous. There are only 3 tables with seating for 4 as the place is small. If you’re looking for comfort food just like home made, this is the place for you.

Extensive menu with different daily specials. Food was fresh and filling and also reasonably priced with good portions. Service is friendly and a lot of takeout orders while we were dining in.

——post covid review This is an example of a restaurant that pulled a 360 in 2 years. I get it food costs more, totally understandable but they raised prices and skimped back on quality. Wife got mofongo with garlic shrimp. The shrimp was like a soup, wheres the garlic? Barely any flavor the tostone was dry. I got the ropa vieja, heartburn attack! Cheap tomato sauce, the yellow rice has no flavor. The yuca was atrocious, frozen yuca not fully cooked the mojo is just embarrassing , literally goya green recaito paste with lime juice YUCK! Tasted chemically. Something changed here for the worst! No longer recommended, no longer returning. ——pre covid review No lie, if you want good food at a great price come here! They’ve got daily specials on deck!! 4 meals + a sandwich and app $42!!!! Where else are you getting this???

Beware that even though breakfast menu says " All breakfast are served with Coffee, Juice& Bread with Butter" you'll be charged extra for the juice.

I made 4 different orders, the tamale in a casserole was too salty for my taste but very tasty and with a lot of meat, everything else was extremely delicious. The ajiaco (sancocho) exceeded my expectations.
