El Picosito Mexican Food - Duarte

Can never go wrong with Picosito! Nice little hidden restaurant.

5 stars for the quality of the food. And 5 stars for the young lady that had to deal with a horrible customer screaming at her over how many salsas he was given... she kept her composure and did her best to accommodate him.

Funny, been here twice in the last 10 days or so and my opinion of this place went from just good enough to really really good, so looking forward to my next trip : . We tried this place because it’s one of the few fast casual dining places that are open after 8pm when we finish work outs. First trip I tried the steak picado burrito and a hard shell beef taco. Thought the taco was very good, but burrito just mediocre. Chips and green salsa very good, but red not so much. Anyway, I guess it was good enough, because we came back. I tried a few different tacos and enjoyed each one (beef hard, asada, carnitas, al pastor and lengua . My buddy tried the shrimp burrito which was also delicious. I also ordered a milanesa torta to go for my GF and she thought it was pretty good as well. Even the red salsa that I didn’t like the week before tasted better. Not sure what changed, but it’s enough to keep me going back. I hope the first trip was just a fluke, but time will tell.

Ate here for the first time tonight. I got the machacas and my husband got the Chili Verde plate. It came to $20 for the both of us. Serving size was adequate and taste was pretty good. Loved the salsa they gave us with the chips. Reminded us of King taco buy not as spicy. It is CASH ONLY. We will be back to try something else. The interior was nice and a good amount of seating and they close at 10pm which is nice because we are late eaters.

Very disappointed overall. The chorizo and eggs were dry and overcooked and the rice was also dry. The chorizo and eggs looked like they were leftovers from a previous day and would really not recommend breakfast here to anybody. For the quality of the dish, half price would be fair.
