On the way to a Yelp elite event at Jeni's, we decided that we should eat an actual meal, not just ice. Cream. We decided on Pio Pio based on the Yelp reviews. What a pleasant surprise. The interior was much nicer than we had expected, with an interesting mural across one whole wall. We started with empanada appetizers, 1 beef and 1 chicken. Delightful, especially with the dipping sauces. JoJo went for the chicken sandwich, and I the chicken salad. We both chose tostones, as we had never tried them before. The salad was not served with a dressing, but none was needed beyond the aforementioned sauces. JoJo enjoyed half of her large sandwich, packaging the rest for tomorrow's lunch. We liked the tostones, but will probably stick to the once-fried plantains next time. Service was friendly and prompt. Looking forward to trying the soup on our next visit.

I recently discovered this Peruvian restaurant and was delighted by the diverse menu. While the service was decent, I felt it could have been improved. The standout was the Montenero plate, a delightful combination of steak, rice, beans, fried pork, avocado, and a fried egg - a nostalgic taste that I hadn't experienced in a while. My friend enjoyed the pork chop with rice, beans, and sweet plantain. The only disappointment was the ceviche, which lacked chips and had too much happening on the plate with dry corn kernels and bland corn. Despite this, our overall experience was positive, and we savored the flavors of the diverse dishes.

While take it is the norm for our family I'm glad there are quality restaurants such as this one which regardless of dine in or take I'm out the quality shines through. We came here and ordered take out. The staff was incredibly helpful and be friendly. We started with the Latin combo. This domes with a whole chicken, rice, beans, plantains and yuca fries. It also comes with a salad but we swapped it for the soup. The chicken was super moist and very flavorful. The beans and rice took me home to my childhood and the plantains did not disappoint. I'm so happy I've found this place as the food is authentic and delicious. Do not miss out!

This place has the best rotisserie chicken and fried snapper. I also always order the Passion Fruit juice as it's so refreshing.

All I said all night while enjoying my meal was "mmm" and did my happy dance. The red snapper ($25) was soooo flavorful and delicious! My friend got the chicken but she allowed me to taste it. TheChicken skin was just how I like it; not gummy , and the chicken was super juicy. The restaurant is smaller but it is very cozy and warm, I loved the lighting and overall experience. The mango smoothie was really good too, tasted really natural. If I'm ever in the area again I definitely will be back.

Ordered for take out. We tried the Jalea and the Loki saltado. I enjoyed the Jalea, the Lomo saltado tasted good but didn't have a lot of beef, we ended up wishing for more lol. It brings rice regardless so when you order another rice you end up with double rice if you order fries, you'll end up with rice and fries. I feel like that wasn't clear on their website. We will return to try other things!

This place was a great find for picky former New Yorkers like us. Terrific, authentic food, great ambiance and friendly service. The prices are also very reasonable compared with nearby restaurants. Convenient location in Blakeney that easy to miss. We now go here regularly with our kids and everyone is happy. Try the Sangria!

We have been going to Pio Pio Blakney for some time, and it has always been outstanding. While the food is wonderful, they have discontinued their 1/4 chicken with soup and salad. This was our favorite. To get the same now, you have to purchase everything separately- not good.

Server was great but the manager said he "didn't see our coupon and then didn't know how to rerun our bill". Nice lie! Not going back. At least could have offered something instead-gift card-for same amount.
