"Publico Kitchen’s big patio is super pet - and human - friendly, and they even have a small menu for your dog, though the one for everyone else is much longer. It’s a bit all over the place, with everything from tacos and ramen to a bahn mi sandwich, but everyone in your party will be able to find something. We also really like their brunch menu, so post up here on the weekends and even if you didn’t bring your own dog, we’re sure someone will share theirs with you anyway." - Sarah Bailey

"The first thing you notice when you walk into Publico is the open kitchen. If you look closer, you’ll see an open hearth and a spit with pork shoulder roasting for the al pastor tacos, both of which are immediate signs that you’re going to eat very well here. This Delmar Loop spot serves Latin-inspired small plates like tostadas and arepas, along with a few larger dishes like a whole roasted fish. Finish with the flan, and then claim a finders fee anytime someone else brings up going to Publico." - Jen Maylack

My co workers decided on this place for the first time, for our monthly get together. We chose several appetizer's, and a few drinks. The sticky ribs, were our favorite. Several of the other items didn't meet our expectations. The Nacho Fries didn't have any queso, and the Crab Ragoon was cold. Our waitress was exceptional, and met all of our needs! The atmosphere was awesome for a Thursday, especially with the music bingo!

We were very excited to try Publico since it has a dedicated vegan menu. Unfortunately it was really gross! I got the tofu “crunch” roll which had 2 small crunchy pieces in the whole burrito and was mostly undercooked rice that was pretty raw and soaking wet. My wife got the Cuban nachos which had cashew “queso” that was just hot water. The server said that wasn’t a mistake and unprompted said “it’s not perfect.” Both meals were mushy messes and would not recommend for vegans. Tortilla chips were very good though

Really enjoyed this restaurant. I was looking for a healthy ish dog friendly restaurant and stumbled upon Publico. The food the service the drinks it was all great. The dog menu was definitely a special touch I was not expecting. I got the Cuban nachos with baked cod on top and it was some of the best food I have had in a really long time.

Wow, it's a sports bar. Lot's of unique menu items. When my Mexican Cornbread came out I was disappointed by the size but it turned out to be filling and just enough. Everyone else's food looked really good too.

Loved this place and the location. We chose the $45 10 tacos and 5 sides and a beer flight. The tacos are very large so this was an awesome deal. The atmosphere is a real vibe, especially outside. It’s a place we will take family to when they’re in town.

I just had the best time at Publico in Five Points! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was so chill and welcoming. The staff treated us like old friends, which made everything feel extra special. Now, let's talk about the food. Wow! We kicked things off with the spicy turkey gyoza, and it was a total flavor bomb. Everything I ate was absolutely delicious! Overall, Publico was a fantastic find. The food was awesome, the people were great, and I left with a big smile on my face. I’m already planning my next visit, and I highly recommend you check it out too!

We came during March Madness while Columbia won the championship! It was so crowded with a live DJ inside. We opted to sit outside where it was a more relaxing environment. Drinks on tap weren't bad. Birria tacos were delicious. We even played some cornhole while we waited for our food. Highly recommend!
