Pio pio has great food but I always ask for white sauce only and they NEVER get it right. Tonight, I forgot to check – ugh. And ordered dark meat only… ugh got mixed.

The restaurant’s ambiance is warm and inviting, with a charming interior and cozy seating arrangements that create a comfortable atmosphere for guests. The menu at Pio Pio is diverse and tantalizing, featuring a wide range of traditional Peruvian dishes that are prepared with utmost care and authenticity. From succulent roasted chicken, marinated in flavorful spices and cooked to perfection, to mouthwatering ceviche bursting with fresh flavors, Pio Pio never fails to impress with its culinary offerings.

It’s cute but very small… tables are crushed together.. chicken is very boney… I keep spitting little chunks of bones .. kinda heavy food.. very expensive, they charge for everything. Not a fan.. location is nice..rich white people neighborhood..

This is a NO PERUVIAN RESTAURANT! It says Peruvian but it’s a Colombian one.

The restaurant is a little small but the flavor is HUGE! Great food, warm and friendly staff. This is a treat for me and my friends. The roasted chicken is like no other. If you are familiar with Peruvian food, you will understand!! The next best thing to the chicken are the beans. I was a little disappointed by the beans on my last trip but hopefully that was just a one-off. Typically the beans are SO savory, creamy, and flavorful – you do not know whether you are coming or going!! Get the half chicken, platanos and beans!! Thank me later

I ordered the same meal for the second time to be sure I was fair about my review. The result was the same. The rice, beans and plantains are tasty, however the star of the show, the chicken, is dry with no seasoning. it appears the garlic sauce is intended to provide the missing flavor. I actually prefer the chicken at Viva Chicken, which is a chain, but the chicken is always moist and wonderfully seasoned without the sauces. i did not dine in, but the take out service is friendly but a bit slow

The place did’t cover my expectations… services and customer services has 6 of 10 I know we are close to 9 pm but the waitress needs to pay more attention to the customers … I was looking for a nice Peruvian restaurant in Charlotte and the reviews talked. But certainly my lomo salteado was not a real lomo plate .. the jalea is far away to the real Jalea too….. this restaurant needs more quality and better flavors training for their employees. Potentially has the instruments but needs still more ..

I came from SC to eat some Peruvian food which I love but this place is nothing to do the chaufa mix suppose to have shrimp and chicken no shrimp and it was white rice mix with egg. I order the Montañero and the beef had a bad taste our food took more than 20 min to come out even the server came back from his lunch and asked us if we want something else when we did not even get our food. I complain about all this and they gave me $5 discount insulting absolutely not recommended

Very kind waiters, but unfortunately my shrimp chaufa wasn’t what I expected it to be. It needed to be fried and it didn’t taste fresh.

This restaurant gives you a 20% coupon each time you place an order and have it delivered buy DoorDash. The problem is that in order to use the 20% coupon you can only place the order on their website their website will not allow it to be delivered to your address says it’s not serviceable.
