When you tire of the mundane, cheese-laden Tex-Mex staples which saturate other restaurants, then try Arnaldo Richard's truly authentic interior Mex-Mex cuisine. Choose from different moles to adorn your pollo; try meats pibil (baked in banana leaves); savor the fresh seafood selections; and then order your favorite blue agave-based refreshers from this Herradura Ambassador. Finish with tres leches. Don't miss out on Arnaldo's signature paella.

This is the "best" mexican restaurant in town. Truly authentic and yet creative. The food is always fresh and delicious. We've been customers for over 25 years. We keep going back for more again and again!

This is my favorite restaurant. The house margaritas are better than most top shelf ritas I've tried at other places. The patio rocks! If you do not see something on the menu that you like tell them what you do. They often prepare off the menu specials. When the soft shell crabs are in season they are a must.

Great food, we use them for our parties at Christmas and everyone loves the food. The fish and soft shell crabs are the best in Houston. Our whole family loves to go there.

This is a hidden gem in Houston. I always think of Pico's when I think of great Mexican food. The service is great and always professional even when they are busy. I was there on national margarita day and the inside and outside were packed. After a reasonable wait we were seated. Everything came out faster than expected and was very delicious. Keep up the great work!!

A 'barbell' menu with superb appetizer (calamari) and the best desserts from Pico's own bakery (Tres Leches). Off the menu entre is always outstanding.

I've been going there for over 20 years now, and the food is amazing!! It's not just the usual Mexican restaurant, but the chef's original recipes make Pico's my favorite! The margaritas are the best in the city! Try the top shelf margaritas in the shaker...delicious!!
