Bandeja Paisa
Isabella C.

I have been looking for a Colombian restaurant for so long. This so far is the best. The service is amazing, our waiter was so attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, the chicharron was excellent, made exactly how i love it. The flavors were very good, oh and not to mention the prices are very reasonable. I give this place a 10/10, I will definitely be adding this to my go-to restaurants.

Lomo Saltado
Erica C.

5 stars for the lomo saltado - top 2 I've ever had. I love it when they toss the fries with the rest of the dish so that the sauce flavors the fries, but it's not soggy. Beef is tender, so don't worry about that. We didn't try anything else, but I would definitely come back here just for that lomo saltado. The 2 sauces (green and white) they gave complimented the dish perfectly. Waitress was nice. Lots of parking.

Pio Pio Vineland is an absolute gem. Truly a hole in a wall. Colombian & Peruvian cuisine perfected. The service was exceptional due in part because our server was the Restaurant Manager, Hernan, who was simply amazing. The whole entire atmosphere and food were to die for. This restaurant is very spacious for you and a love one or even a big family of 20. The full service bar is amazing but so are their entrees, appetizers, fresh juices, and desserts. I will DEINFITELY be coming back again 10 out of 10.

Happy hour margaritas special with added passion fruit flavor
Sherlyn T.

We wanted to try Pio Pio for a quick bite and as a bonus it was happy hour. The Manager/Bartender was great and attentive. He thanked us for giving them a try since it was our first time stopping in. We ordered small bites to share since i didn't not want to spoil my dinner plans. I gotta tell ya, small bites is where it's at. Not only is it shareable but you get to try different dishes. We had passion fruit margaritas some empanadas and pork chunks. Loved the dipping sauces. Everything came hot and we would have loved to stay and had more food. Definitely next time we will try the octopus as well as one of their steaks. Everything looked so good.

Bar

Got here around 1600 and only one other patron in the joint...also at the bar as it turns out. Bright and airy but kinda cramped space with a cross between minimalist modern and Peruvian decor. It looks like a misbegotten love child between Old Incan and Bauhaus Moderne. Blech! One other remarkable thing...how NOISY it is in here with obnoxiously loud music playing and bouncing off the bare walls and metal ceiling. Meanwhile, it smells incredibly clean in the restaurant...like the whole place was washed and mopped with bleach water. That even carries with the restroom! Barkeep is Isabella...she spoke so softly in this loud cavernous space I had to ask her to repeat herself every time she said anything. Quite soon after we were seated, she asked if we wanted apps...can we look at the menu please? I think she got the idea because she backed off a little and waited for me to summon her each time thereafter. Once I DID, I ordered skirt steak aka churrasco, while my Queen Bee kept it simple with a quarter roast chicken. Peruvian cuisine is apparently known for roast chicken, so there ya go. She ordered dark , but lo and behold they brought out a breast and a wing, aka white meat. If U look at her plate, you'll see that the wing looked like it belonged to a baby duck rather than a full-grown chicken. Both entrees come with beans and rice along with a choice of ripe or unripe plantains, or cassava. She had "maduros" and I the cassava. The latter came out like steak fries and the former...well: maduros. IYKYK... I can say one thing about everything on both plates...B-L-A-N-D! When the best seasoned item on either plate was a piece of roast chicken breast, you know that it's time to check the salt and pepper supply in the kitchen. Skirt steak came with one of the oddest chimichurri sauces I ever tasted...more like vinegar than olive oil and garlic. Isabella had put down a small ramekin of jalapeño cream sauce and another of what amounts to garlic ranch. At least those had a lil flavor to them. Rice, beans, steak and chicken had no such luck. Honestly I don't know if I'd have tried this joint had it not been so close to our timeshare and didn't have 2-for-1 draft beer. Queen Bee had a glass of Cabernet and even THAT didn't have much flavor or taste. When Isabella asked whether we wanted coffee or dessert, we replied with a resolute "no." Were one to ask if we'd return, we'd reply with exactly THAT too. N-O!!!!

Empanadas delicious

Super clean, I came to do a service in the kitchen you can eat in the floor super clean. I would recommend it 100%. I don't give him 100% unless they earned

Seafood cerviche

This place is a hidden gem. The food is delicious. Service is outstanding. Decor and cleanliness get an A plus. For all you ceviche lovers, this is the best seafood ceviche in town.Trust me, you try it once and you will come back again and again. Trust me. And by the way, you have to have the flan. It is so good and made fresh daily.

Food was so good and authentic, best taste everrr, the service was Al's perfect the server was so nice and talkative, his name is Juan, and the place was rlly nice, the lighting felt very welcoming, would definitely come back

I actually really like Pio Pio in other locations, but even though I live right down the street I haven't returned to this one. First of all, the food is good! And when Pio Pio first opened at other locations you felt like you were getting a really good value for your family to eat. Unfortunately that isn't the case at this location with VERY high tourist area pricing for lower cost foods like rotisserie chicken and plantains. The temp in this location also seems to have issues which is not being helped by their insistence on leaving their front door open in summer to show they are open. As others have mentioned it is loud and service wasn't great even though the restaurant was empty. Fix the prices, the AC and the service and the food will speak for itself and bring people in.

There were only a few other parties seated, but it could've been the early afternoon hour we chose. Sitting outside would definitely be nice, but this was a day where Florida had yet to acknowledge that fall is here. Our waitress was attentive and kind, especially considering my two coworkers both had severe allergies. I ordered the fettuccine with the peruvian style huancaina sauce and chicken. Absolutely delicious! My coworkers had the lomo saltado and a ceviche bowl, both of which I'm told were delightful. Will definitely be back! Unfortunately, it may be priced out of my frequent favorites, but it would be a great special occasion location.

The fish was definitely the highlight of the meal--fish ceviche was fresh with a great flavor, but more impressively, the fried fish that came w my son's kids meal was some of the best fish nuggets we've had. The fish was well marinated, perfectly cooked without being dry, and had a very light coat of breading that was super crispy. Our other favorites included the yucca fritas and dessert of Mousse de Chirimoya. The drinks were interesting as well--I enjoyed the chicha morada, & the virgin pina colada was rich in both coconut and pineapple flavor. Our server, Katherine, was patient and attentive. Food came out fairly quickly as well . The space was well lit and spacious. I loved the music choices as well. Overall, really enjoyed our experience and would return next time we're in town.

So to be able to try this dish because they had it with chicken was a great alternative.

The sauce was salty for sure but paired so well with the rice and the chicken. Also added a fried egg to it and a side of sweet plantains. Perfect meal. Would recommend!

The Lomo Saltado was disappointing. The beef was very chewy, the dish lacked the flavorful sauce I've experienced at other Peruvian restaurants, and overall it was quite dry. I was especially disappointed because I was introducing my mother to Peruvian cuisine for the first time. The service was extremely friendly, but I was surprised that table water wasn't provided and we had to purchase bottled water. The restaurant also has a noticeable smell of frying oil when you walk in, which I personally did not find pleasant. That said, I still encourage people to support this small business and give it a try. That's why I chose to leave 5 stars despite my experience being closer to a 3.

**Peruvian find -- small on reviews, big on flavor**…read more Only 5 reviews on this place, all 5 stars, but the newest was a year old -- that gap made us hesitant. It was right next to where we were already headed though, so we gave it a shot. Good call, mostly. My wife's Ceviche Clasico was excellent -- fresh fish, bright citrus, and standout sides: sweet corn kernels and sliced sweet potato with an earthy, cinnamon-like seasoning. That dish alone is worth the visit. My jalea (fish, calamari, shrimp, just 4 pieces of yucca) was decent but unremarkable -- I should've ordered a side to go with it. Minor gripe: my sparkling water arrived as just the bottle, no glass or ice. Ambiance was a plus -- clean, spacious, empty at 2pm. We were facing two TVs: one showing a live Peruvian music concert, the other a travel documentary about Peru. Ended up listening to the concert while reading the documentary's subtitles -- an unexpectedly fun combo. Bottom line: get the ceviche. Hoping this place gets the traffic (and reviews) it deserves.
