    Large build your own bowl
    Linda M.

    We stopped here for lunch after being at Artpark for a book festival. The name sure peaked our interest. Its a small place with limited seating. It was a bit to chilly to sit outside. I saw a lot of prople getting takeout orders. We both ordered the build your own bowl. You had your choice of different prices, greens, proteins, and numerous other topping. My bowl was definitely full! There was no skimping on the toppings and I had enough for 2 meals. The employees were friendly and service was quick. Though I didn't appreciate the number of 'extras' added on to the bill. These were not clearly marked anywhere. Rhe only thing posted on the glass cases where they had the food was an extra charge for quac. Still reasonable priced but should have been disclosed better. 2025 -71

    We were in Lewiston for a big book festival a Art Park and stopped here for lunch. I got a Built Your Own Bowl. As I traveled along the counter with all the ingredients, I told the person behind the counter what I wanted in the bowl. The price was on their wall menu was $9.82 for a large bowl. Even though the food was good, their deceptive covert upselling left a bad taste in my mouth. All they had to say was "this item and that item had" an up-charge I still, being informed, would have got them anyways. I even asked if things like sour cream costed more, which it didn't. The only thing that was marked more was guacamole. I paid and had to ask for my recipt, this when I saw all the hidden up-charge such as one of the chicken toppings, only identified as "Todays Special" with no up-charge amount displayed anywere nor communicated by the counter person. They just snuck it on the bill by inflating the original bowl price. Then I saw that standard taco toppings like simple salsa were also not marked as costing more but they up-charged anyway. They did not ask me if I wanted a receipt because as part of ther deception is to not voluntarily let you see a receipt showing all the covert up-charge. It was a good thing I said I wanted my receipt, otherwise they would have successfully deceived me. SHAME ON YOU, SPICY PICKLE! I want to make it clear that I have no problems paying more for what I want. Even though it was basically only pennies, it's the principal of it.

    Thursday July 10th, 2025. We stopped by because we placed an online order. We ordered. 2 taco bowls with beef and doritos, tomatoes, cheese, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole

    Woohoo!!!!

    I love the Spicey Pickle. It's a great little place in Lewiston. It's like a mom-and-pop version of Chipotle. Bowls, burritos, chips and cheese... Today I got the Nooch. It's a huge burrito that costs $11something and it has 2 servings of meat which you can mix and match or get double of the same kind, beans, and whatever other fillings/toppings you'd like. It was massive. I made it a meal with a side (chips and cheese) and a drink and it came to $17.50 before tip. And I always tip. They deserve it. My girlfriend got a bowl and made it a meal. It was her first time there and she loved it. Try them next time you're in Lewiston. You won't be sorry.

    This place is ok. It's not somewhere I'd be opposed to going again, but also not a place I'm eager to get back to either. I found the food to just be average and something I could easily make at home. It didn't have that authentic feel to it. But it wasn't bad either, just average. I had the 3 pack hard shells ... 2 with ground beef and one with shredded. The shredded had a nice sweet flavor to it. What I loved most about this place was the customer service. Everyone seemed upbeat and friendly and happy to answer questions. The restaurant was clean and they packed our food nicely in to-go containers and we eat ate at Art Park.

    Salad and chips

    Needed a place to grab a bite after the jet boat tour. Found this spot while driving through the quaint town of Lewiston. A nice local restaurant with fresh ingredients and good food. Almost like a local chipotle, but with better food! The dorito burrito was a hit with my son and my wife. I had a salad that I was able to decide which ingredients I wanted. Very delicious! Would recommend for anyone!

    Great food at a great price. Wife and I ordered a burrito bowl and a Nooch. The Nooch is a huge burrito on a 14" tortilla. I had 3 filling meals off that monster!! If you like Chipotle or Moe's, then The Spivey Pickle is the place for you when in Lewiston. Side note, they really do have Spicey pickles! :)

    Very good. I ordered 3 tacos and they all tasted great! Pickles on a taco, who knew?!?

    Such a cute little place. The name is definitely interesting. It stuck out and was definitely the reason I stopped here while visiting Niagara Falls. I ordered a burrito and it was fantastic! I ordered a small shredded beef with white rice, corn, pico, cheese as toppings with pineapple habanero and avocado ranch as two sauces. The shredded beef was so flavorful it honestly didn't need any of the sauces. However the sauces were very good and there was a long list to choose from. I loved the flavor of the burrito and the small was a perfect serving for me! Great place to eat if you are on the go in the area. Very delicious! Did not disappoint AT ALL! Would definitely recommend this spot to eat!

The owner stopped by the table and conversed a few other times he was walking by. Their complimentary chips and salsa are heavenly. The chips have a southwest seasoning of sorts, and the salsa is not your typical salsa... but a few bars above. We also ordered queso. It was TO DIE FOR. I need to go back already for more chips and dip. My fiancé ordered the tacos... his three were carne asada, adobo grilled shrimp, and the pork belly. He struggled to pick a favorite. He loved the sauce on the pork belly, and decided the carne asada was his favorite. I went with the shrimp fajitas. Very good sized meal. The shrimp were delicious. The Mexican rice was a bit different than usual Mexican rice... seemed more like a blend of other grains, and instead of your typical refried beans, they were just straight up pinto. LOTS of food. We went home beyond stuffed, and still wanting more chips.

It looked like there were only about 3 tables seated at the time and a few people at the bar. The restaurant has a cool vibe with bright colors and a VW bus in the middle that you can sit in! So neat! We chose to sit outside on the patio, which was a nice option to have. Once seated we were brought our menus and shortly there after complimentary chips and salsa. We each ordered a drink, one was a non-alcoholic grapefruit jalapeno refresher and the other was an alcoholic watermelon basil margarita. The NA one unfortunately didn't have any heat or flavor at all of the jalapeno in the actual drink, but it was ok. My friend enjoyed his watermelon drink, but only had one because it was a bit sweet. We ordered the Pozole Rojo, shrimp taco trio and shrimp fajitas. The Pozole Rojo was great and definitely my favorite part of the meal. It had a lot of pork in it and I enjoy the hominy corn, which you don't see on many menus. My friend really enjoyed the shrimp as did I; it was very well seasoned and perfectly cooked. The beans that came with the fajita were quite bland, which was disappointing. All in all, I would give them another shot.

It's easier to eat if you let it cool off just a little, otherwise it runs off of the nachos. For dinner, my wife had a vegetarian/vegan burrito and I had Cammerones Bravos (shrimp dish with nice, large shrimp, rice, salad, onions & peppers, avacado, and jalepenos). I asked for mine with avacado on the side, so I could give it to my wife). It is advertized as SPICY (in capital letters) and it is because these are not wimpy jalepenos. Perfect for someone who loves spicy food. You can customize the order on a dropdown online (which I did for the guac). Those not so into onions, jalapenos, etc, can customize that as well. It was a big meal! I also ordered refried beans on the side and was too full to touch them. I can testify from past experience, however, that they are delicious. I customized my wife's Vegan burrito as well, using the dropdown menu to exclude meat and dairy. It worked perfectly. Dinner comes with some nachos and salsa. Both delicious and, when I last checked, both home made as well. We were very satisfied and very full. I highly recommend Mariachi Do Oro for a great, filling meal. The employees are very friendly and do their best to serve me and others there for dinner when I went for our pickup.

We will definitely be back to try some of the dinner entrees! I also appreciated the sign in the bathroom offering an angel shot in case you're in an unsafe situation and need help getting out safely.
