    Excellent food, everything tasted exceptional and fresh. Service was friendly, but just a bit slow. The restaurant itself is beautiful and a nice place to be while enjoying various dishes.

    I love Picos! The staff are incredibly helpful, the food is amazing! I had the aguas chiles and the chicken w mole, both were amazing. My dad had the lamb w mole and shared a taste, wow!! I had been looking for the best mole, worthy of the state of Oaxaca and this mole made the grade!

    Pico’s was nicely decorated for the holidays. The food and service were both great. Our server, Hector, is exceptional. The chilaquiles are always good. The Mex-Benny , blueberry pancakes, and omelette Poblano were really good, too!

    Today I dined in here for the first time. I have been wanting to come here since 2017 when a friend told me great things about it and today I finally made it! William was my server and he was superb. He recommended great drinks and he was very easy going and kind. My meal was very comfortable and I was very happy with this place between the ambience, service, and food. I would definitely return!

    Atmosphere 10/10 Customer service 20/10 I have never been to a restaurant where the whole staff is very attentive. Our drink never ran out, before we knew it waiter was bringing a new one. A manager walked by talked to us, he was such a vibe!! Loved the energy! 20/10 Overall definitely will be back.

    the service was excellent & very attentive. drinks stayed full & our chips were always full of fresh hot tortillas chips! the food was AMAZING. between the queso, guacamole& chicharrones were the best appetizer and almost filled us up before our entrees came out! they are still celebrating eating Houston’s Restaurant Week so I suggest making it out here before they take it away!
