Le Voov! Restaurant Review: Picaro ? ?
Picaro
(Food & Fantasy of Spain / Tapas)
3120 16th Street, San Francisco, 94103
We stumbled across this tapas restaurant by the name of Picaro in the Mission District of San Francisco. We weren’t even thinking about lunch, but the rich, earthy aroma coming from the kitchen lured us in like moths to the flame. The colorful, art-filled walls and the bustling atmosphere contributed greatly to the lively tenor. Our waiter Jose gave us a few thoughtful suggestions.
Here’s what we ordered:
Calamares Fritos (Fried Calamari)
Gambas al Ajillo (Grilled Shrimp)
Pollo al Ajillo – (Garlic Chicken)
Pinchos Morunos – (Pork Kebabs)
Next time we want to try their famous sangria!
We enjoyed each of the generously portioned, flavorful dishes we ordered, along with the friendly service. We plan to visit Picaro again, and their sister restaurant Esperpento, both located in the heart of the Mission.
