My wife and I made a COSTCO run in Clermont to return some items (Tramontina dutch ovens chip badly…read moreand the Dyson heat + cool doesn't work as advertised) and checked out old town for lunch options. Our friends recommended Cosa Nostra but, being a sucker for empanadas, my wife suggested Pico Bistro instead. Located on the bottom floor of the Montrose Street Market, Pico Bistro operates from a small space. After looking at the menu, my wife ordered the #4 (Beef with green olives and eggs) and #19 (Beef, sausage and cheese) empanadas ($4.33 each) with fries ($3.99). I ordered the picanha (steak) served with chimichurri and fries ($16.50). We each had a Coke Zero ($2.50 each per can!) in a can to wash it down with. My wife liked her empanadas, especially dipped in that pico sauce it came with. My steak was just OK...really needed that chimichurri sauce to add some flavor. The thin steak was cooked on what looked like a portable flat top. All in all, I thought lunch was nothing to write home about, except perhaps for the empanadas. The value certainly wasn't there, not to mention a 2.5% processing fee added to credit card payments. Lunch for 2 with tip came out to $43.

The meat was flavorful and the cheddar cheese was perfectly sharp. I also loved the crust- it was very light and not greasy at all.

My most recent order was tabbouleh salad and hummus with lamb gyro meat and pita chips to accompany it. The flavor of the hummus wasn't my favorite but the meat was fine. The tabbouleh was ok. I'd describe everything as meh -- not bad but it could be a lot better for the price. I've had far better food at cheaper places. Cedar Grill is fine for when I'm wanting a quick Mediterranean fix but it generally wouldn't be my first choice for a place to eat.

The only problem I would say, was the side of Greek dressing cost two dollars per side of dressing. Some places only charge you $.25 even maybe a dollar but I thought two dollars was excessive. The reason I paid for it was because I had the dressing With the old owners had this restaurant and I knew how good it taste. I still think the service was exceptional because the order came on time.

Service - walked in and immediately greeted. Asked if I wanted to do dine in or take out. Since it wasn't busy I opted for dine in. My server spoke a little English but was super friendly. She took care of me and and even brought a take out container noticing I didn't finish my food. Food- ordered the pernil lunch special and morir sonado to drink. Food was very delicious and reminded of the same food I would get on the island :) my only complaint was that my food was not super hot when it came out but it did coke out quickly after ordering. Food is priced well. Ambiance - small and cozy very welcoming. Not a ton of inside seating but could accommodate several families. 9/10 I definitely would return and make myself a regular here.

The food here tasted incredible. All of them were freshly prepared and seasoned. They have Mofongos from both Dominican and Puerto Rican. My party ordered the Chicharron y Pollo Mofongo from the Dominican side and Carne Frita Mofongo from the Puerto Rican side. The Dominican Mofongo was like a treasure chest that had fried pork rinds and shredded chicken hidden inside and melted cheese on top. The Puerto Rican Mofongo we ordered came with the fried pork chunks which tasted so good with the Mayo ketchup. But my number one today definitely was the cheese flan. It was perfectly sweetened with a texture between the cheese cake and caramel flan. I certainly will be back to try some of their other dishes.

They said the food was truly authentic and tasted just like home, which says a lot. This was my first time trying Venezuelan food, and I was blown away.

Mind you it was about 80 degrees outside :/ We decided to sit right next to these not even realizing what it was and ate for about an hour. As we were leaving I noticed WHAT it was & am absolutely disgusted We live in Florida , one of the hottest states in America & it was out for a very long time I hope they threw all this food away It's absolutely contaminated as it definitely could possibly give food Bourne illnesses to not only people but especially pregnant people I've been experiencing terrible stomach pains, throwing up almost anything and everything I ate along with this food Also we called and told the Ownerr about it and he came outside & touched it & went back inside to his rush hour line he most likely had & said on the phone "it was just delivered" Which no it was not , it was literally defrosting in the heat & I physically touched the food to check how warm it could've been as well as it was directly under the hot sun So HOPEFULLY he took it inside & made the right decision to just throw it back out and call it a loss but when I touched it , it was basically warm to touch and it was a bunch of frozen stuff... yuck
