Most Disliked
During peak times, El Picosito can become quite crowded, especially on Saturdays when it reaches full capacity. Some visitors might find the noise level higher than desired due to the bustling atmosphere. A few diners have noted that wait times can increase during lunch hours, with weekends being particularly busy. While most dishes receive high marks, a select few have reported inconsistencies in flavors on rare occasions. The cozy seating may feel a bit cramped for larger groups, prompting some patrons to prefer takeout over dine-in during busy times. However, these minor drawbacks do not greatly overshadow the overall positive experience.

Had this place roughly 13 years ago and I remember it was good, but never went back because I dont live close to it. Stopped by today and tried a variety of things like a carne asada burrito, carne asada torta, al pastor tacos and 2 asada sopes and nothing tasted bad. The burrito is now my favorite 2nd favorite local, my 1st choice for the asada torta and al pastor tacos. So happy I tried this spot again! Service was fast too!

I have been going to Picosito for many, many years. The food is good. Probably one of the best in the area. It is authentic Mexican food. The employees are polite and efficient. The prices are good. My daughter goes there as well and now even my granddaughter's love it. Actually they've been eating there since they were babies. I don't know her name but there is one woman that has been there a long time and has short hair. Usually she is the one working when we go, and she's very nice and polite and efficient. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Sometimes we dine in, sometimes we call ahead and get it to go. We eat everything from there. We have had breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And dessert. They have flan. It's a really a good place. If you have not tried it, you should.

It's a small place tucked away in the corner It's a nice place constant amount patrons going in and out when I was there. The food I had (carnitas burrito) was excellent. Prices are decent. It's a good place to go.

I've been coming here for years. I don't care for the appearance. But the food and service makes up for anything. It's so good!!! It's very authentic Mexican. They have a big selection. Anything I've ever eaten here, has been good. During the cold days, they make champurrado.
