The food is very good. But I think the prices are a little high for what they are serving. The atmosphere was Friendly. A little loud. But wutevs. read more

Phenomenal food atmosphere wait staff...cannot say enough great things about this place!!!!

This place is growing on me. I've only been here twice and never really think of this place to hit up when I want Mexican food, but the atmosphere is awesome for a ladies night out. Pricey though. Definitely not a place I'd bring the kids, but then again this menu is not kid friendly in my opinion. Both times though, awesome waiters and staff. They really love what they do. read more

I would give 3 1/2 if I could bc I had trouble deciding between 3 and 4. Spiced tortilla chips were very odd to me and the nachos in general were very meh. Shrimp empanadas were very tasty with a nice sauce but could have used more shrimp. Brisket burrito was extremely delicious although not what I expected. I would definitely return for that burrito. Also had a delicious bread pudding and a flourless chocolate cake that I didn't care for at all. I would say there is a real mix of winners and losers on the menu. read more

Excellent Mexican restaurant. Best one I have ever been to. The pulled pork burrito is delicious and the honey chipotle wings are amazing. Go here, you will be happy you did. read more

The vibe at Pico was amazing. I was especially pleased to get out of the house for a night out while still being close to home, not having to go all the way into the city or out on the Island. The staff was very attentive and pleasant. Service is a bit slow and it took quite some time to get the check and then again to actually pay. The starters are very yummy!! Be sure to try the corn for sure. For the entree I selected a veggie quesadilla. It had its own twist with the artichoke but wayyyy too much cheese lol. read more

Absolutely love this place. Being a rockaway local we order for delivery from Pico often (probably more often than normal). The food is always super fresh and consistently delicious. Try the salads. I have never ever got even a remotely wilted leaf. The guac is amazing and equally as fresh. Make sure you ask for roasted pepitas or as I like to call them "crack seeds." I dine in at Pico occasionally. The ambience is great. You really get a beach town feel. They play great music too. Sublime, 311, Pepper etc. Thank you Pico for the great food. Rockaway needed it read more

I had lunch today and the taco special was simple and delicious. The restaurant has great decor and a laid back vibe. I recommend this place wholeheartedly. Muchas Gracias! read more

Went there for the third time. And, for the third time, I HATED it. Went for the first time on their 2nd day after opening...not good but I chalked it up to opening jitters. 2nd and 3rd time - what's the excuse? Guacamole - ok but no real Mexican flavor. In fact, nothing has a genuine Mexican flavor. Chicken nachos were more like BBQ nachos - with cheese whiz on top! Last nights special - short rib tacos also tasted more BBQ than Mexican. Taco Bell is more authentic. Service was terrible....we were still eating with forks in hand and busboy asked if we were done and could he take our plates! Not very good food, not very good service and prices too high for quality. Definitely not value for money spent! Bring back Rockaway Seafood Company! read more

This was my first time at Pico Restaurant and, it was AMAZING!!!!!. From our drinks to our main course. OHH don't let me for get the Bread Pudding. I am still licking my lips. Hats off to the Chef and to Tim. I will be going back and bring my friends with me. read more

I went there with my family last weekend and we had a very good time. the representation of the food is very good, it looks nice on the plates and the tacos are amazing! We all loved the place very much, although it took a while until the food was ready, but the place was very busy that day, maybe it's not like that in the middle of the week. read more

Great place, the atmosphere, food, service is all on point. It is a must to and Rockaway Resident or visitor.

A little expansive but great service and the food is on point. Server Lorae is good. Thank you. My second time here.

Absolutely love this spot! I have come here many times and fall more in love with this place each time I do! I have come with family and friends and each time we have all left extremely happy and full! The LA Burrito with brisket is my favorite! And their guac is next level! Rockaway is such a great community and I love to come here to dine especially in the summer after a day at the beach! read more

Best place to meet and catch up with friends and family! Happy hour is my favorite time! Clean, warm and very friendly. Owner and staff appreciate your business. The food is amazing, but the drink specials ROCK! Thank you. read more

Just got home from having a great dinner on the grand opening evening at Pico. Great location, beautifully decorated, great ambiance and great vibe. Guacamole delicious!! The crab meat enchilada was unbelievable! Warm and friendly staff. You wont be disappointed. read more

Went to this restaurant when we were visiting family in Far Rockaway. It was really delicious! Almost everything they serve is made from scratch and was so tasty! The chips have this yummy spice on them that makes them good enough to eat on their own, but you don't want to miss out on the pico and guacamole. I had a chicken burrito and the chicken was smoked - it wasn't traditional Mexican food, but it was so uniquely delicious. We were only in town for 3 days and I wanted to go back because it was so good and not like any other Mexican food that I've ever had. read more

Okay service but food is awesome!!! Everyone I went with ordered something different and it was all great.

We had dinner at Pico the other night. Overall, very good. The service was great. The food was very tasty. The only complaint I have is I ordered the shrimp mole dish. It came with 3 shrimp, not jumbo, they were definitely on the smaller side. Thought $18 was a bit overpriced for that. But again the place is beautiful, drinks are very good so I definitely recommend you try. read more

Margaritas and food both very good, atmosphere and service good as well. Best mexican restaurant in Rockaway. Only complaint is no complimentary chips and salsa. read more

If this restaurant were closer to me, I would go all the time! This is a Mexican restaurant, but from what I hear, the owners are Irish. Some people might be skeptical of how good an Irish owned Mexican restaurant can be, but I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My friends and I walked over from Rockaway Beach (about a 15 minute walk depending on where you're situated) and left with full and happy bellies. They have tacos with pastrami of all things, which was delicious and their guacamole is pretty legit too. The servings are good for lunch time and I was tempted to get their pitcher of mimosa or bloody mary/maria for $10! I think they only serve that during brunch hours, but it's a great deal nonetheless. There was a table nearby who got a pitcher of mimosa and it looked like a healthy serving. I ended up getting a single serving for bloody mary for $5 which didn't disappoint either. read more

Definitely impressed with the lunch options. The food I ate was really good, I ordered a smoked chicken taco and a grilled fish taco, both included in the two for $10 lunch special. The fish taco was Delish, the chicken one was okay, but definitely wouldn't get it again (there was a bone in it maybe that's why). Really wanted to give this place 5 stars, but I can't get over the fact that they charge for chips and salsa. Never been to a Mexican restaurant that doesn't serve the table a complimentary order. read more

Walking in to the restaurant we've noticed the specials board read, "Come check out the most obnoxious service one lady on yelp had to experience" They had us at sarcasm......we thought that was funny but according to all the good reviews on yelp beforehand, we decided to take the drive to come and experience for ourselves. We were greeted right away and our server was extremely friendly and worked with my vegetarian needs. Guacomole and tortilla chips were amazing....they were so fresh and Guacomole had crab meat in it.....delicious. our mojitos were delicious and had a nice kick to it. Shrimp empanadas were soooo dammm good!!! Our entré's which were vegetable burrito, pork belly tacos and side fried yucca. Entree's came with beans, rice, Guacomole and tomatoes were absolutely delicious.....we finished with dessert which was bread pudding and again delicious. We would definitely come back!! Service, and food was delightful. read more

See all

We have been here several times and have always had a great meal and left satisfied. I really enjoy their taco specials, the pastrami, angry shrimp and pork belly being the best. Love their brisket quesadilla as well. My husband usually gets their burrito, which is sizeable. The nacho platter is generous and equally good. Recently had their slaw salad with ginger cumin dressing and it was delicious. Drinks are great are fairly priced for the size. Usually we are too full for dessert but we did have the dulce la leche cake and it was also good. I would enjoy more choices of fish entrees, grilled and not fried, but I really can't say anything negative about Pico. The service, and atmosphere (can be noisy in front) are a welcome addition to the neighborhood. read more

What a great spot delicious Tex-Mex food happy hour from 12 to 7 run by some really Dynamite nice welcoming people definitely a spot that you should check out the beef brisket burrito is unbelievably delicious Stone Cold winner read more

My wife and I have been going here almost weekly for the last few months, so we must have nice things to say :) Staff has always been great, friendly...food is awesome, with fish/brisket/chicken tacos, shrimp ceviche, Napa cabbage salad among our favorites.....I could list the great drinks we've had too but then you'd start to doubt my ability to write reviews.......we haven't had a bad experience in our 20-25 visits so far, keep up the good work!!! read more

I just found this little gem after living 2 years in Rockaway Beach. I must say I will be ordering again. The food is well portioned and homey. However, my boyfriend got the burger and he said it could have been a little more grilled. I ordered the mahi mahi entree and didn't really love it. Def would look into ordering something w shrimp next time. Other than that, the bread pudding was to die for !! And my favorite side were the onion strings. I gave it a 4 star just because I feel the entree was a bit over priced (mahi mahi). Other than that, if you're in the Rockaway Beach area- I recommend :) read more

BEST TRES LECHES I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!!!! very moist and they most deff. make their own Caramel so amazing !!!!

Picks is always, fresh and delicious. Their taco specials are over the top, Guac is possibly the best I've ever had, every meal had was delicious. Brunch is amazing. Friends Fromm all over always look surprised after a couple of bites and tell me how lucky we are to have this around the block! read more

I have been her twice and each time it was great! Delicious food, good service, pleasant staff and very nice atmosphere. Nice restaurants are rare in this area and this one is worth a try. read more

Hands down best place in town! Highly recommend. It's the best Mexican food here in Rockaway. Looking forward to my next visit.

Terrible place, yea sure the food is fine and everything but the workers aren't. Not only do they make their customers wait for a long time, they also yell at people who don't give them tips. For example, I saw a waitress yell at several kids today lecturing them and losing her temper about how they only tipped her like $0.75. I mean they're kids, why would anyone care about a little bit of tip. I mean I work in a restaurant but never have I ever seen such attitude from someone. read more

This place has everything you'd want in a restaurant. Consistently amazing food, chill atmosphere, excellent, friendly (not to mention good-looking) service, bomb ass drinks. Doesn't get any better. Been here dozens of times and never, ever disappointed. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. read more

Excellent food. Everything is flavorful and well-seasoned. We really enjoyed our burritos on this visit. I got the pork, and hubby got the brisket. Love the flavor of the smoked meat. read more

Not only does Pico have delicious food (especially the pastrami tacos) it has an amazing atmosphere and a friendly staff! We also get Pico delivered quite often and it is always delivered in a timely fashion and the food is still hot. Highly recommend! read more

We had dinner tonight and it was one of the best Mexican food I've had in a very long ti m e.our waitress was amazing too. We will be back soon!! read more

A solid dining option. A bit pricey ($6 for a single taco) but the food will not leave you unhappy. It's better to dine in than order out, as they've forgotten items in our order more than a couple of times. The best option is probably to take advantage of their bar options at happy hour, which is a little bit more bang for your buck. Favs include crab guac, and shrimp tacos. read more

Food was good. Dessert was outstanding. BEST tres leches cake of all time!

This place is a little off the radar for people just in the area for the beach but worth going to. Everything was fantastic. Like everything we tried was the best possible version of itself. Shrimp empanadas of my dreams. My friend wanted a shot glass of just the chipotle aioli. read more

Yum! Amazing tacos, nachos, and drinks were on point too. The decor is cool, good for a casual night out with friends or a date. Definitely would come back here. read more
