It was our first time at Pickasitos and we were genuinely impressed. The food was so fresh and full of flavour. Portions are big, but the prices feel really fair for what you get, so it ends up being great value. The nachos were a standout. Plenty of guac (which we loved) and the cheese was spread throughout, not just dumped on the top few chips like you get in a lot of places. The tacos were packed with flavour, and the pulled beef burrito was really juicy. We left super full and happy!! Would definitely recommend.

Pickosito’s food never disappoints! You can taste it’s fresh and made with love. We always get the slow cooked beef taco with extra guacamole (although it’s very little guacamole for 2€), quesadillas and horchata. The service is good, but the first time you come it’s a bit confusing. Meaning, you don’t really understand that you need to self serve, get your own menu then order at the counter. But with experience, you get there fast. A bit more emphasis on communicating this to new customers would help increase the overall experience. The atmosphere is great if you want a place that is authentic. Seeing the chef work the dough, the piñatas, fun facts displayed on posters adds to the Mexican feel. I definitely recommend checking this place and coming back to try new things.

Everything was so tasty! The food was full of flavour and really well prepared – honestly, everything we tried was delicious. I went with my Mexican friend, who’s usually quite picky with food, and she loved everything too. Definitely a great spot if you’re craving proper Mexican food.

Forget what you think you know about Mexican food from chain restaurants. Tucked away in a quiet Tigard neighborhood is a culinary treasure serving up a taste of true tradition: Traditional Mexican Pozole. From the moment you walk in, the warm, savory aroma of simmering broth and spices transports you straight to a family kitchen in Jalisco. This cozy, no-frills spot focuses on one thing: perfecting its namesake dish. We opted for the Pozole Rojo, and it was a revelation. The deep red, chile-infused broth was complex and soul-warming, brimming with incredibly tender, slow-cooked pork and plump hominy. The real magic, however, happens when you customize your bowl with the vibrant array of fresh garnishes served alongside: crisp shredded cabbage, sharp radishes, diced onion, and a generous squeeze of lime. Each spoonful is a perfect, crunchy, and savory balance of flavor and texture. **Highlights:** * **Authentic Pozole Rojo & Verde:** Both are slow-simmered to perfection. * **Fresh Garnishes:** Customize your bowl for the perfect bite. * **House-Made Aguas Frescas:** The perfect complement to your meal. **Call-to-Action:** Craving an authentic, comforting meal? Head to Tigard and discover this hidden gem for yourself. Your taste buds will thank you!
