The Peruvian inspired restaurant Pio Pio, truly is a small family owned and operated business. We first opened in 1994 in Rego Park, Queens New York, and have since added more locations there are four in Manhattan, three in Queens, one in the Bronx and now Brooklyn. At our Hell’s Kitchen, Upper West Side, and Jackson Heights locations, we have expanded the menu beyond our hallmark rotisserie chicken & famous green sauce, rice & beans, avocado salad, plantains, and sangria to include Chinese-Peruvian stir fry, fresh fish, an array of ceviches, and fresh juice pisco cocktails.
