Houston PressAugust 4, 2014Pico's stands apart from other Houston Mexican restaurants by offering not just Tex-Mex favorites, but also traditional interior and coastal Mexican dishes. Read more
Powerful Margaritas, where even in the cheap ones they put high quality tequila. Great chips and two types of salsas (love their green salsa!). My favorite dish: Filete de Pescado Mojo de Ajo.
Picos MexAugust 10, 2013Authentic Mexican and Mex-Mex cuisine, serving breakfast, the best shaken margaritas, Fajitas, and soft-shell crab. Catering & delivery are also available.
- Mark StevensAugust 16, 2013The Cochinita Pibil is subtle and sublime. I prefer visiting Pico's on weekdays when I don't have to wait for a table and can usually find a table outside under the palapa.
JennJanuary 21, 2012The real standouts are the authentic Mexican dishes like mole (3 kinds!) and the sublime chiles en nogada. When available, osso buco and soft shell crabs are outstanding, but not so cheap.
Houston ChronicleAugust 3, 2014Don't miss: Enchiladas verdes; nachos Jorge; soft-shell crab in season; Oaxacan tamales; cochinita pibil; crab quesadillas. Read more
Alvin ClyOctober 3, 2011Love it! My wife and I had a fabulous dinner here and it was delicious! We certainly come again since it has very authentic mexican dishes.
Allen ArcadeSeptember 18, 2011The best dishes are the non-typical TexMex selections. Skip the fajitas and get their soft shell crab or their take on a Mexican paella.
Philip CordovaJuly 21, 2013Huge margaritas and good food. Pricier than the location would make you believe.- Marshall PreddyAugust 13, 2010They're not on the menu, but the Crawfish enchiladas are awesome. Comes with spinach and plain white rice. The dish is spicy, but not crazy spicy. Enjoy.
For breakfast ask for tamales with an over easy egg...then pop the yolk and let the tamale do the rest.
- Houston ChronicleAugust 3, 2014Inside track: Always heed the blackboard specials, particularly during mole season. Read more

- Houston PressJanuary 27, 20112010 Best of Houston® Winner: Best Tex-Mex Restaurant: Relax with a margarita under the palapa-covered patio outside.
Glenn BarnettJanuary 9, 2012Dinner with the neighbors. Expensive but good. This is not the place for Tex-Mex. This is Oxaca or other central Mexican food.
- Drink T1 Tequila, like the Karate Kid "it's the best...around"
