Review Picantos Mexican Grill - Pune

Suhas Kulkarni
Very nice place for all your craving for good Mexican food! The food, service and the place itself is really nice! The Green Apple Ice Tea was not cold, but after informing about it, the person at the counter immediately apologized and took it off the bill! Good stuff!

Although we like ordering in from here, eating there is even better. Love the burritos and rice bowls. The enchilada and nachos can be avoided if ordering in. Churos are alright. Their bean chili soup is comfort food.
Nikhil Goenka
Excellent Mexican food! Very authentic preparations and great service! I loved the burritos and nachos here. The salsa and gucamole were also very fresh. I'd definitely recommend this place.
Abhinav Sharma
Small cozy place for mexican food. As usual they have Indianised Mexican food here too, like all continental chains have to do in India. Location is a bit hard to find all of sudden, unless you start seeing one story up.

Picantos has been my favourite Mexican food joint but was kinda bored with the same menu. It was a pleasant surprise when we were invited for food tasting of the new menu. Appetisers did not appeal me much (Dragonfly , Tamarindo and Horchata), all need some dash of flavour. However, taste buds accelerated from the time appetisers were on the table. Peri Peri Potato Soft Shell tacos , Suff Veg Empandas, Cheesy Wedges , but the winner was Pulled pork soft shell tacos. This was one of the best pork dishes I had in recent times. Soup served was fresh veggie and white bean which was ok can be improved a lot. When it comes to Salad and that too you hear a name of Beetroot most of us are at backfoot. But Beetroot and feta salad will make you believe that beetroot can be one of the best salad :). Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad did not disappoint too. Another perfect salad it was. Then we entered into the world of Panini's ( Chicken Barbeque, Pulled pork Cubano, tomato mozzarella ) all were rocking and perfect. Plated meal of Chicken Roulade with mole was the next, some gravy /sauce would help to enhance the taste. To end on a sweet note we had Churros and Chocolate Pannacotta which were perfect. Overall experience was good , the new menu is definitely appealing . Will wait for few more interesting additions

If you are looking for Mexican food around then you should come here and enjoy the burritos, salsa, tacos and what not. This place have both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. It is expensive though.

Went here finally after receiving many recommendations and I have to say I'm not disappointed at all. This is a cozy place with great and tasty food options and polite staff. Not to mention this place is pretty affordable too!
Lincy Raju
I love their bowls, quesedillas and enchiladas... N their tré leches cake is awesome.. All healthy too... Love the food here..
Ramesh Gururaj
Serves great Mexican stuff! Loved the churros ... Actually found this place quite by accident, but was pleasantly surprised with what they have to offer!
Aditya Nilangekar
I used to regularly get their grilled chicken with rice & salad parceled before. Good taste and equally good & efficient service.
Dnyanesh Nandurkar
It's a QSR (quick service restaurant) category casual eating, self service place. Food is ok, scope for improvement.
Anshul Singhal
Good food choices and a great ambience. Perfect mexican getaway spot.
Narendra Jain
Chermoula chicken n bloody guava cooler a must try!

Authentic Mexican food - We tried Burrito and Taco. Quantity was sufficient. Burrito tasted like authentic Mexican food (example - Burrito at Chipotle). However they can further improve on salsa.<br/>Burrito rated as 4/5 and Taco 2.5/5<br/>Service - Staff is helpful and supportive to decide your order by providing information on the ingredients. (4/5)<br/>Ambiance - Ambiance is good although it is small restaurant. They have different board games which you can play there. Good place to hang out with friends. (4/5)
Nilesh Lohade
I ate just because I do not throw away the food.<br/><br/>We ordered;<br/>1) Bean Bowl: cold rise, beans, and not even warm... Just cold!<br/><br/>2) Grilled Vegi Tacos: served in paper box and with Cabbage dressing. And had to dig to bottom of serving to find if there are any thing added to call it Tacos<br/><br/>3) Carbonara Pasta: again cold!<br/><br/>Heck man! We thought it will be good eatery in Aundh, based on 3.6 rating, but it's not even Thik Hain type.<br/>I could have had Rajma-Chawal at home, prepared in the Morning.
Aditya
I went this place long time back but posting it now. This place has to be on must visiting list bcoz this is an authentic mexican place. You will get every possible Mexican food over here without compromising the quantity and quality of food. The sauces they use for various dishes have proper required ingredients and taste. One of the best place in aundh to have food with your colleague. Staff is helpful and informative.<br/><br/>Must visit place!!!!
Arijit Mallick
Just received my order from picantos. The rice smells obnoxious. It's stale and the whole dish smells because of that. Was not able to eat one of the dishes (spicy chicken) at all. Mexican food is far from what they are selling. Very disappointed.
Radhika Bhandari
Very poor in taking orders, we ordered cheesy chicken and got spicy chicken burrito. The salesman was not even ready to accept the fault. Very poor customer service!
Avani Chavan
Lemon iced tea😘👍👍👍👍<br/>The guava drink isnt worth the price atall<br/><br/>The bowls are very filling. Even the small bowl has a veryyy good quantity. The customizations can definitely work in our favour.<br/><br/>Food has a maxican feel as they try to bring out by the AMBIANCE on the place. A variety of board games are available. <br/>Stuffed mushroom tacos were very boringgg<br/><br/>Staff is very polite and makes the experience good.
Niraj Kaneria
There was only overstuffed rice in the burrito...no sauces less veggies...it was cold...not the usual stuff surely
Mehuli Nag Biswas
Food is nice but not so spicy like the Mexican food should be. Not much options are there, same kinds are there in different types. Filling kind. Bowls options are better.
Hanisha Mehta
Food was good but taste wise it was average. It's a Mexican restaurant but the was not according to the theme. They need to improvise there taste. Desserts are really good. <br/>Ambiance - 3/5<br/>Value for money - 2.5/5<br/>Taste - 2/5<br/>Quality - 3/5<br/><br/>Must try<br/>Churros with chocolate sauce<br/>Chocolate Quesadillas<br/>Lichi dragon fly<br/>Salad bowl<br/>
Ekta Rajani
The food taste has become horrible and the quantity is become pathetic. So less quantity. Not worth spending your time and money on Picantos.
Kiran Jambhale
This is a tiny place in Aundh. They serve quite satisfactory Mexican food. They have everything ranging from salads, tacos, burritos, enchiladas, nachos. I love all types of tacos here. They have an option of DIY tacos as well. Do try the avocado dip here. Also, they have yummy churros.
VEGGIE LOVER
Hello, I have been visiting this place since last 2 years now. It's still the best first choice for Mexican Food. If you are planning for a quick Mexican Lunch this is the place you need to be. <br/><br/>Food - All the options are just amazing. Veg Burrito is my fav. food here. <br/><br/>Ambiance - Very decent. Clean & Hygienic. <br/><br/>Service - A Mexican fast food joint, self service. Staff is very cooperative. If you feel confused they will explain you & help you order. <br/><br/>Pocket - Mexican food at this price and specially the quality can't get any better than this. <br/><br/>This is one of the best fast food options for Mexican Food. <br/><br/>Peace Out <br/>
Akshay Kadam
Shravan month so you gotta understand the pain.Had to eat only Veg. We had lots of Tacos (spicy paneer, grilled veggies, cheesy potatoes). Tacos were mouth watering and delicious. Later we had burritos which were actually not upto that mark. I think if those were a bit hot, it would have been overwhelming. The ginger lemonade was good for the first timers. Also we had some cheese and corn quesadillas which were actually good. Also the spicy paneer Bowl was okay okay. Maybe I,I'll visit next time just to taste non vegetarian Mexican food :)
Anmol Baijal
Located in Aundh, this is an authentic mexican place.<br/><br/>So if you are craving for some mexican food, surely you should give this place a visit.<br/><br/>We had the grilled chicken burrito and grilled vegetable quesadilla over here.<br/><br/>Both were quite filling and light on the pocket. <br/><br/>Would love to try other items on their menu sometime :)
MAYANK PARNAMI
As a mexican lover i love picantos. They treated me bad by not offering water and stuff but food took my anger away and it was awesome. May be it is my prejudice for mexican but this place is worth a try to get away from cliche munching
Ajinkya Vernekar
The only Mexican restaurant in town I suppose! <br/>They have all possible Mexican delicacies on their menu! <br/>Me and my family come here often and always walk out happily! <br/>I have tasted everything till date and I am absolutely in love with it. Their desserts are a must try! <br/>Quality food and Value for money it is! <br/>
Harsh Shah
Good food, they provide a small variety of Mexican, but is good. Enchilidas is the best of the lot. Tastes similar to lazzania. Go for the desert. The best part of the lot.
Yogita A. Rane
Best place in Aundh which has almost all verity of Mexican food with pocket friendly rate, Delivers in time and when tried eating there it has very good offering for table games to pass time.
Chetan Mishra
One of the nicer places for Mexican food in Pune. Loved the quasedillas, which were quite good and sumptuous. The décor is nice and the seating is comfy.
Ketki Vaidya
This place has never failed to satisfy my cravings for Mexican food!! I love their flavors which stay on your palette until the next time you crave for it!<br/>My favorite is their burrito bowl! Trust me.. It is to die for...all Mexican flavours are amazingly infused in one dish! They serve pretty big quantities to make your tummy and pocket happy!!! <br/>Their chocolate pannacotta is a must try too! <br/>Healthy wholesome and delicious food under one roof! <br/>Keep it up guys. <br/>Adios amigos 🙋
Ritvik Tuteja
Its a great place to chill with the best of Mexican food and a taste that will fill your stomach to the brim. Good location & a very friendly customer service
Anuj Popli
Ive been to Picantos 3 times in the past 6 months and all of the 3 times, its given me food poisoning. I don’t know how thats not an issue for the other people but its a major concern for me. <br/>Ive always thought that it might have been something else that i ate on the day but 3 times assures me of the restaurant. <br/>The food is tasty but due to the lack of clients that visit the store, i don’t think the food is very fresh. <br/>Overall not at all a good experience for me.
Theshubham310
My Jain roommate and I ordered two burritos from Picantos. Obviously one of them was vegetarian​ and I ordered a non-vegetarian burrito. We received the order and when I started eating the burrito my roomate asked me if I could taste any potato in my burrito. Turns out that the restaurant marked the vegetarian burrito as the non-vegetarian one. One thing for sure, this restaurant has lost one of their loyal customer.
Twinkle Patodiya
Posting late...but cannot forget this on my list. Had quick dinner plans after office needed some good Mexican joint in Aundh...so went to Picantos. Ambience not a luxury one...so accordingly are the charges. Variety available good, tastes good must try burritos here. They have also kept some indoor games to keeps kids engaged while food come 😂😂 that's cool. Overall good place for quick bites🌮🌯😋.<br/>Follow for story updates on insta- discoveredangel

Place is easily accessible though it is not on ground floor.<br/><br/>Food quality was avarage ok ok types. What I dnt like is drinking water is not cold. <br/><br/>Ambiance is good.<br/><br/>When we asked about offer showed on Zomato they said that it is only applicable for Home delivery. <br/><br/>I would say overall 3.0 only to be visited once.
Sourabh
Delicious Mexican food at budget friendly price. Great place to hang out with friends. Friendly staff . Pasta is really good must try for pasta lovers.
Shruti Khandelwal
A nice place for people who like Mexican<br/>They don't offer a lot of variety. We had nachos they were ok n tacos were also not tht great. Ambience is nice
Vinita Nandode
Food: (4/5)<br/>Food here is hell good. A pure Mexican delight. They serve all main dishes of Mexican cuisine and that too good at taste. We had burrito bowl which was absolutely yummy and churos with chocolate sauce like a cherry on a cake.<br/><br/>Ambiance: (4/5)<br/>They have nice ambiance, however they have a small place which can't accommodate large number of persons. All clean and tidy.<br/><br/>Service: (4/5)<br/>They have self service system which is good. Hygiene maintained good in sitting area and by attendants as well.<br/><br/>Must Have's and Don't Haves:<br/>Some Mexican delicacies you can try here like Burrito bowl (go for a bowl, if you think burrito will be too messy to eat) and to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings you can try Churos with chocolate sauce, its good.<br/><br/>Verdict: (3.5/5)<br/>If you are in a mood of trying some Mexican food you can give a visit to this place. Serves pure Mexican food, good in hygiene whether it is sitting area or attendants, quick service. A pure Mexican delight you can say.<br/><br/>Suggestions: <br/>Please keep some cold water during summers, you have simply one big water can which is warm.
Ishani Sathe
Picantos has been my go to place for Mexican food for a couple of years. Recently I've had a terrible experience with them. My order took more than an hour to reach, the delivery people didn't understand the locality and even after nine calls I found myself standing on the road, helping them find my house. (it's easy to find, several landmarks were shared). After going through this ordeal to get my food, I found the meat they used was stale, and the veggies were spoilt. Really not up to the standard.
Amit
Stay away! Food was stale and did not feel edible from the looks itself.<br/><br/>Ambience is nothing to write about.<br/>Location is bit difficult to spot as well.<br/><br/>Most of the stuff we oredered was horrible in taste.
Kalpana Gupta
Late review !!!<br/>We had grilled veggies tacos, veg enchiladas and iced tea and the taste was pretty average. Most of the dishes were cold and stale.<br/>Service was good.<br/>Ambience is ok.<br/>The experience was ok but not delightful
Mandar Chimurkar
The tacos were really good... But small in size.. and considering the price... They aren't that filling, you've to order another set of 4 tacos to feel something. Same issue with their nachos. The taste is good no doubt, just increase the quantity or alter the dishes a little bit making them heavier on the stomach than it is right now. (Maybe increase the size of the taco)
Gunjan Paul
The worst place to get food delivered from if you are hungry. The order was very late. But the problem does not end there. The food that was delivered was stale. I feel the management should check what is being delivered to the customers. People can fall ill with such bad quality food.
Vaishnavi Nair
Tried the spicy chicken bowl(big) today. The portion size is enough for two people. Coming to the food I quite liked the bowl.....it was a melody of flavours in the mouth.....can't find a fault in it. Perfectly cooked kidney beans with the right amount of rice and sauces......is a match made in heaven. The vegetables used were fresh because it had the crunch in it. Will definately go back to try other things.
Milind Kulkarni
Good Mexican food like you get in US Chipotle, Mexican rice bowels, Nachos are good one, service is good, good place in Sunshine to Eat out on weekends.
Shamli Singh
If you have a craving for Mexican food, this is the place to be. Enter the small place and all the air around you smells of Mexican food. We had bowls of grilled veggies and spicy paneer, a mixed veggies burrito and a butter chicken burrito, and a green apple iced tea. Totally filling lunch and is definitely worth the money. Service is quick too! And the best part is, you can be around as long as you want and play some board games that they keep.
Shaileshwori Sharma
If you are a fan of tex-mex, look no further. Picantos, located near Parihar chowk, has never failed to deliver (both literally and figuratively). This is the first place that comes to mind when we are too lazy to cook. And after ordering from here 5+ times over the past 8 months, I would vouch for its authenticity and charm. I can also swear by their BBQ chicken burritos and ginger iced tea. Even their smalls are pretty filling but you always have the option of upgrading to a bigger size. It is also an overall palate pleaser with the option of spicing things up or keeping it mild. Other notable things that make this eatery unique are that home delivery orders are packed in recycled bags made from newspapers. Additionally, their delivery person always comes with exact change at hand for cash-on-delivery order. And to top it all, we have fed a family of four adults properly for under INR 900, which makes this a definite value for money! Go for it!
Torresansari
Wanted to eat Mexican food for a long time.... finally visited picantos n I must tell you, it's not the place to eat Mexican.. Ull start hating Mexican food... try somewhere else but here...
Geet Asher
Have been here many times and whenever I crave for Mexican food picantos is the place I go to. Always had a good experience. You get a place easily over here on most occasions. Ambiance is ok plenty with plenty of seating. It's a self service restaurant where u place the order on the counter and pick up the food. They have plenty board games so that you can sit and enjoy those games with your group.<br/><br/>Coming to the food I order the mini Mexican rice bowl everytime which is my favourite and really filling. They have different choices in the bowls veg and non veg and I prefer the spicy paneer mexican bowl. You can add your own ingredients to the bowl just like how subway works where u can add your own toppings and sauces. I have eaten the Tacos and Mexican quasadillas as well which are good but not so filling. It's a little cumbersome to eat the tacos but the taste is good. Avoid the nachos overload which isn't so great and the nachos become too soggy.<br/><br/>Cost is reasonable.Go to this place for the rice bowls they are worth it but the other dishes are OK nothing great.<br/><br/>
Ankita Jain
Hi , <br/><br/>I thought to provide a true feedback since i had been there regular customer since they opened there restro in aundh.<br/><br/>As prices have become higher and quantity became less. Quality is degraded i must say since previous day as i had been there many times and i loved those nachos which were orange in color and they use to be crisp earlier. Now a days nachos doesnt even tempt me which are being served in picantos.<br/><br/>Yesterday i went around 7:30 pm and ordered A food which i liked most and everytime i order that only- they are loaded nachos and cheesy potato rice bowl. So as soon as i placed my order i asked the person to call me when he will start preparing the my order i will customize as alwz i do. So he called me and i went there .. i saw he placed some nachos in the bowl and started puttng the rajma gravy which was left over on the container - i asked him bring the fresh one as the left one looks like its yesterday prepared and more over i didnt felt like eating that only. Post that he still continued poring the left over rajma in my bowl. Another person standing next to the person who was serving , finally when i asked him he took the container inside and then bought the fresh gravy. Same thing happened with my rice bowl, left over rice was put on my bowl. Post that i asked him to put the sauces - he started putting one sauce four times and proportion was odd. Then asked him to put some tamoto salad which he said mam ismein nah daalte hai . At last i didnt said much asked him prepare hpw he wants. I took that order to my table.<br/><br/>As soon as i started eating , i can see the nachos smelled like they were not that fresh , didnt liked the taste tough i was hungry had to ate as i didnt want to again argue with the staff as they were wierd when i was placing the order. Then rice bowl was not dat delicious as it use to be earlier. I think becoz of the proportion and all that didnt me good as i knew it previous taste. <br/><br/>I think i wuld have gone to some other mexican restro would have made my day. <br/><br/>That was the last time i went to picantos as i could not see a cooperative behaviour of staff, neither were they rresponding well. Also I had told my friends to visit picantos becoz earlier i used to love it , but they didnt liked it much and now i knew the reason behind it . They all were disappointed when they went for the first time.
Aatish
Burrito lovers can order from here. <br/><br/>Do try their Bean and Mexican Cheesey Burrito; they have right combination of cheese, salad, beans, Veggies (potato is also yummy) and rice with some tasty sauces. Perfect for one's appetite; quality and quantity exact .... Worth it .... <br/><br/>Other options not exactly upto the mark .... They disappoint you in Tachos and Nachos .... really need to make them more stuffed and tasty.
Amit Kothari
Picante in Spanish means hot and spicy and the mexican food is nothing without the spicy.I have made peace with being served the frozen /reheated/packaged tacos,tortillas or enchiladas but I really like the sauces to be zesty and well "Picante". It seems Pi cantos have all the right ingredients to hit the market for a six but a certain lack of relish is doing them in.<br/><br/>We recently tried our luck with Herbed Mushroom Tacos and Mixed Veggie Bowl.The Bowl is a rehash of Burrito fillings and sour cream(my best guess) -which was good.<br/><br/>Herbed Mushroom Tacos clearly lacked the punch and the served quantity was really small.<br/><br/>We also tried the hot chocolate which was supposed to be chocolaty - chilly affair, but it definitely was not and definitely kicked in a lots of sugar.
Ankita Choudhury
"Nachos + Guacamole" was so bland and tasteless...paying for a Balaji Chips would have been worth. .."Spicy Chicken salad" hardly had any chicken pieces in it..and also which was suppose to be extra spicy...had hardly any spice it in...Overall experience -  pathetic food...not worth the money...an absolute "Day wasted moment"...no point mentioning about the ambiance.. if the sole purpose of a food joint is NOT achieved!!
Priya Simai
Ambience: Okayish (considering that it's a little place amidst the busy city)<br/>Service: Great!!! (From what I've experienced)<br/>They're very good and sweet towards their customers.<br/>Food: The tacos were good but the rest of the food items ordered were a little disappointing.<br/>Overall, an awesome place to chill out! 😇
Atul
visited couple of times, good experience both times. Small menu but still offers lot of options. Most of the food items there are of good quality and taste. qty is okay too.<br/>both times some delay in getting some of the ordered items.
Arindam Sengupta
Picantos Mexican Grill at Aundh, Pune fills me with a happy healthy feeling, Everytime. The large glass window to watch the traffic on the main road, framed by a Poinciana tree is an enjoyable activity for me, whenever I am here. I generally choose a salad, like the Chicken Cob Salad (today) and the Chemoula Salad (earlier) and I am very happy with them. my son ordered a bowl of Chemoula today-- it comes with a glob of rice- delicious! The owner was here today, and her positive involvement does a world of good to this warm and highly recommended eating place. Many more times at this place. Uhh.. just one thing. While the staff is warm and friendly, the food arrives a wee bit slow. Not too much but just enough to make you edgy a bit.
Ron
Always love ordering from this place! I was introduced to Mexican food thru this place and its been such a delightful experience everytime! Keep up the fab work guys! :))
Ajit Pathak
Great place for a quick Mexican meal!<br/><br/>This is a nice little place tucked away on the first floor of the busy Aundh street. The place itself is roomy with a glass facade overlooking the street. I watched the world go by as i ate.. nice place to be. <br/><br/>Staff is cheerful and courteous. Entering the place they greeted me by their signature Picantos 'Hola'!<br/><br/>I ordered the Cheesy Chicken burrito bowl and Loaded Nachos. Not knowing the portion sizes, i went for the big bowl and struggled to finish it alone. Very generous quantity that two people can eat out of.<br/><br/>I would have preferred the Cheesy Chicken to have some cheese sauce topping rather than grated cheese but, it tasted good and was filling.<br/><br/>The loaded Nachos were soggy with runny sauces and cream. I prefer a plate of nachos with heaped toppings that i can scoop up with chips. Tasted ok though. <br/><br/>Ordered a bloody guava cooler and it was served in a glass with lime and chilli-salt rusted rim. Very bloody mary-esque! The chilli salt went great with the guava flavored beverage.
Jasveen Singh
I always order panner rice bowl from them it is the best. Nice combination of sauces in it which actually gives a burst of flavours. Must try awesome one
Sachi Lakhotia
A good place to have Mexican food. <br/>They usually don't have much rush so we get tables easily. The staff is friendly with assisting you and their dishes quantity is pretty good. Have never been disappointed with their food.
Pratima Jain
So I went here at 4 pm in the evening on Sunday, first place after entering pune. I prefer my food without much onion and garlic and hence didn't expect much from a Mexican joint. To my surprise, it surpassed my expectations, and rather made my day. <br/>1. Service- The place is a self service joint so don't expect much service. However the staff is friendly and accommodates any special requests regarding food. <br/><br/>2. Ambience is rather nice, some board games to play if you might want to. Takes you back to happy days with monopoly and similar ones. <br/><br/>3. Food- Like I said it surpassed my expectations. The sauces are very close to authentic Mexican, and their multiple levels of sauces give a lot of choice to suit people of every taste. My less onion-garlic-spice taste was also accommodated very well! We ordered nachos with salsa, stuffed Pepper rice (picture attached). Stuffed pepper rice took a while to be served, however the taste more than made up for the delay. :) <br/>Tip: ask for extra jalapeños with nachos, complimentary if you ask. ;) <br/><br/>4. Value for money- Rather good; in a plate of nachos and stuffed pepper rice, 2 people could be reasonably fed, costing sub 400. Rare feat. <br/><br/>The place has a staircase to reach, and no lifts.<br/><br/>Overall experience was superb and would totally recommend if you're craving some good Mexican good. :D
Samvedna Sibbal
The ice tea and soup were definitely not good. Rice bowls, chicken pasta was great. At the end, the chocolate panna cotta with strawberry sauce was awesome. The experience was ok but not delightful
Abdul Hasan
Having a very limited Mexican restaurants in Pune i  think if you want to have something in Mexican this is the best option you have.<br/>The bowls taste good, especially the spicy chicken bowl with chipotle and mango chilli sauce.<br/>The quantity is enough for a person but seems the price is on the higher side.<br/>Quesadilla needs to be improved.<br/>Food 3.5/5<br/>Ambience 3/5<br/>Service 4/5
Manasi Oswal
I dont know if the loaded nachos are actually supposed to taste that way, but they were really bad. I didnt enjoy it all. It just tasted as if they threw in some curd on the nachos with beans. The 2 star rating is for the cheese and jalapeno poppers which were also just average.<br/>I believe this place was really good, but to my disappointment it wasnt.
Dhananjay Bodas
Ordered food in the office yesterday. Didn't have a clue before regarding the quantity and the taste but I must say it was filling and mouth watering. Only downsize is regarding the delivery time. The burrito was soggy however it didn't change the taste. The drink was too good. Hadn't tasted the ginger lemonade for a while. I'm now interested to check the ambience at Picantos.
Rushabh Thakkar
Good place.. Ambience : good... But the food here is finger licking and anyone who wants to taste Mexican food should visit this place.. The coffee though isn't soothing.. this restaurant provides you with various games that you can play and with props to click pics..
Dushyant Moghe
Went here finally after receiving many recommendations and I have to say I'm not disappointed at all. This is a cozy place with great and tasty food options and polite staff. Not to mention this place is pretty affordable too!

Abhishek Bardolia

Swapnil Shinde
Yes this place is on the way to parihar chowk from Bremen chowk .well this is a good restaurant with average taste .Not so good experience for us or I think Mexican food is not meant for us after all <br/>We tried tacos , Nachos , burritos , churros and some drinks .<br/>Nachos wasn't so great .They simply gave us doritos and one in house cheese dip which wasn't even prepared well . so it was normal nachos .we ordered spicy chicken tacos , potato taco,BBQ chicken taco .Well it was good in quantity and quality but somehow we didn't get the actual flavours of ingredients in it because of lots of lettuce and others herbs and mainly in each dish we got 90% beans which wasn't expected .Then came cheesy chicken burrito which was huge and good compared to other things but same thing again it has lots of beans compared to other ingredients so we mostly got only beans in out bite . they really need to work on their combinations .then we ordered green apple ice tea and I think the guy didn't understand us and gave ginger lemonade which was too bad .then we went for churros with chocolate sauce .it was also okish .<br/>We visited this place around 9 pm and mostly all cafe was empty but they have only one guy to prepare everything so I think it was hard for him <br/>But majority of beans in everything made it bad to taste as we didn't get all flavours .I'll definitely visit this place again to give it one more chance
Pooja Mayadeo
A blast from the past! Brings back all memories of Chipotles from the US!<br/>Pune really needed a good Mexican food fix and this place gives u exactly that.<br/>Right from the hola! To the good food, it's perfect!<br/>Order any of the burrito or bowl from the menu and it's perfect!<br/>The service is fast as it should be for shirt order places. The ambience is good enough for the kind of food they serve.<br/><br/>Just one fair warning! The spicy food is actually spicy, not for the faint hearted or should I say faint stomached! so I would go for it only if u are really a hot hot food lover...as the beans+spice combo really did some somersaults in my tummy despite me being a total spice lover!<br/><br/>Superb place! Kudos to Picantos!
Astha Raina
Every time I have been there it has been an awesome experience. But ordering is a horror. I've ordered nachos several times now. Every time the cheese is less. This time I thought I'd order and call, just to confirm. And they send me half the cheese instead of double. Wow. I told the guy if he didn't understand hindi, he should have told me, I'd have explained the same in English. But now I'm stuck at an ungodly hour when nothing else will deliver, with a packet of nachos and no cheese. Not done at all.
Vishal P
Having eaten authentic mexican outside India, I was delighted to see the mexican restaurant in India. Went their with my wife. Ordered burrito and salad.  Burrito was very bad. The  beans were stale and salad didn't had any freshness. Everything was stale. <br/><br/>Saying - "HOLA", doesn't make someone mexican , which they didn't even say when we entered.  Good food does. "<br/>muy mala comida" that's what I have to say to them

Been with family for Lunch, and what a delight. we were searching for good mexican restaurent for long and i would like to say "Picantos" have that taste!! In US we used to go "Chipotle" & "QDoba"famous mexical giants and Picatos reflects that taste. We had Burrito Bowl, Tacos, Nachos, & Quesadilla and were of grea taste . Its a small , cozy place bt offers great taste. Accepts Sodexo is plus.<br/><br/>Only con is Parking, you have to to be lucky to get parking around.<br/><br/>Must visit for all mexican food lovers!!

Wanted to try some Mexican food and got to know about this place. <br/>We Tried the tacos and burritos and salad. Somehow found it ok. They just changed the outer shell and the filling remained the same, tasted the same. <br/>Didn't really enjoy it as everything tasted the same.<br/>Probably this is how it is made always.<br/>But a decent place to try Mexican food once.

Comfort food that gives actual, tangible comfort. We had their burrito bowls, they were delicious. But the piece de resistance were their churros and hot chocolate. Warm churros dusted with cinnamon sugar, crunch on the outside and soft on the inside. Comfort. And the hot chocolate was a warm cup of liquid love. With just a hint of chilli. We ate and died and went to food heaven.

Was there for lunch on a weekend. The place is a small and cozy one with some scope for improvement in the interiors. The staff is friendly but they need to improve in terms of speed of food order delivery. The place was not very crowded but had to wait for around 20-30 minutes to get the order. But, I must admit that the taste of the food was worth the wait. Specially, the chocolate panacotta was just awesome and a 5/5 for it. <br/>Will definitely like to visit it again and again for it! :)

"Cozy Mexican place with average taste"<br/>.<br/>.<br/>Picantos is located near Parihar Chowk at walkable distance from Westend mall.It serves Mexican dishes like burritos, tacos and nachos.We ordered the spicy paneer rice bowl and a veggie enchiladas.Both tasted pretty average.The lemon ginger ice tea and fresh green apple ice tea were yum.The best thing about this restaurant is its laid back nature.You can order food and play a number of board games and cards with your family/friends or just indulge in long conversations.The restaurant management allows you to sit for as long as you want and they are pretty courteous as well :)<br/>The prices are very decent.<br/><br/>My rating:<br/>Food - 3.5/5<br/>Service - 4.5/5<br/>Ambiance - 4/5<br/>Value for money - 4/5

Ordered a burrito bowl. It was really filling and nice. This place gives you the Mexican feel but the food is a fusion of Mexican and Indian though both the cuisines are quite similar. They had visited our college as well during a fest and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. A pocket friendly restaurant with food that fills up your tummy. Would definitely recommend this place

I guess one of the best Mexican food I have tasted outside Mexico. Love their lemonade.

I have been to this place couple of times and had wonderful experience. They have plenty mexican options for both veg and non veg. Bowls are simply awesome with beans, brown and white rice, veggies and sauces you can choose from. Loaded nachos is a must try. I have also tried enchilada, it was very cheezy and tasteful. Overall a great place for casual lunch and dinner. Light on pocket. Friendly staff and quick service.

These guys had their stall at the ZaPalooza Fest.<br/><br/>We ordered Chicken Nachos and Churros.<br/><br/>Nachos had loads of mayonnaise,sauce and chicken. I have never had such yummy nachos in recent times and the Churros were a bit too sweet for my liking.<br/><br/>Overall,this place is value for money.<br/><br/>#Recommended

Order food through ZOMATO...just now received delivery. It was all mess as entire sour cream was spilled in a bag due to a hole into container they have put.Very disappointing experience.

Been to this place on the last day of smart city experiment. Good quality and quantity of tasty food. Staff is attentive. Ordered a burritos, large veg bowl, quesadillas and ginger lemonade. Best part was when I asked them to pack few leftovers, they used a paper bag made from a newspaper. Such small steps to save our environment through such platform is impressive. Keep it up guys! Will visit again if ever I'll visit that area.

Picantos is one of my first experiences with Mexican food. It's a small place and you might have to wait before getting a seat. The ambiance is quite simple. The food was better than my expectations. The rates are really reasonable. I guess it is one of the few only Mexican restaurants in Pune. Do try this place for some food Mexican food.

entrepreneurship. I have had the privilege of meeting one of the owners and of talking to the other on the phone a couple of times, both of them were extremely helpful and friendly. I have tried almost everything on their menu – crispy shell. tacos, quesadillas, nachos, bowls, pastas and desserts. The bean tacos are

Wide variety of menu, looks very enticing. So we ordered nachos and salsa here. I'm not sure about other dishes, but the base dough of both thr dishes was not that great. The taco filling was good but I've had better. <br/><br/>As far as the nachos went, we ordered for nachos with guacamole and some extra cheese. Guacamole sauce was very bitter, cheese was very less and nachos had nothing but cut tomatoes. <br/><br/>I mean for what is being charged, atleast serve with better quality. <br/><br/>At least from what I had, I was not satisfied at all.

Holaaaaaaaaaa…The first word you hear when you enter this place. Amazing welcome and food lover staff who serve all the love on the plate with food. A perfect mexican joint there is…. I have had everything there is on the menu and I would say Chicken rice bowls, tacos are the clear winners. Yummm food spices picked perectly to add the chilli to the dish. Just a suggestion rice bowls may take a little less of beans.

I am not a big fan of Mexican food but been there just to try it out. The nachos were not even one-half as good as the restaurants in other cities like Mumbai or Bangalore. However, the burrito was pretty good. Although the rice was pretty cold, the overall presentation and the taste was up to the mark. I did not however, like the concept of serving Kidney Beans instead of the authentic Mexican beans in the items. Mexicans use beans a lot but not the Rajma that we know of.
Niharika
A must go cafe.... ginger lemonade must try!!! We ordered a Rice bowl with mashed potatoes which was really delicious. Along with it we ordered the baked beans nachos( althou cannot beat little Italy standard ) but was still good and different . Quantity is huge so order accordingly.

DICEY <br/><br/>Drinks, naachos and the dessert. Everything was pretty okaish.<br/><br/>Nachos were a total disaster according to me, totally bland.
Rajgopal Sundaram
Nice eat out with a full fledged Mexican menu. Not very big but organized very nice. It has a typical Mexican ambience and gives you a foodie feeling as soon as you enter<br/>The menu has most of the popular Mexican dishes (Burritos,Tacos, Quassidillas, Enchiladas and the works) with some combo meal options. The food is served fresh. Price is quite reasonable.<br/>We finished with Churros which is a Mexican dessert and was quite good.
Tejaswini Kurra
The place is a must try for Mexican cuisine lovers! The place is small and the food is a bit pricey, but it's worth it. Les Treches dessert is a must try :)

The restaurant is a hard to miss, basic kinda place, with cute Sombreros and taco-puns all around. <br/>The Chermoula chicken salad bowl was a smash hit. The rice was spicy, the beans well done, the veggies fresh and the sauces were an amazing blend. Its a party in your mouth. <br/>But the madness was the chocolate panna cotta. The panna cotta itself was soft and wobbly on top with rich and chocolate-y base. And it came with this smashing cardamom infused strawberry dressing, which I licked down to the last bits.<br/>The fact that I won three rounds of uno added to the memorable meal. So did the extremely courteous and helpful staff. Going again, without a doubt :)

Had ordered a Chermoula chicken salad bowl & a ginger lemonade.. I loved the taste.. It was a pure value for money.. Would definitely visit again

We happened to go here for a casual lunch. <br/>This place has a lot of Mexican food options..<br/>I had a spicy paneer rice bowl with lemon rice, rajma and a few veggies topped with sauces.<br/>My friend had a burrito with the exact same stuffing in a burrito.<br/>The food was average and the place was decent! <br/>
Himadri Ghosh
Ordered food from here. I am new to mexican food but i am pretty sure, the mexicans dont use rajma in their Enchilada, but if thats the case i am more than happy to give it a five star rating.
Grishma Bhatt
Not authentic maxican taste . But good place to try once. Lots of options are there to choose your own veggies souce beans and many more !! Economically good place. Must try churos with chocolate sauce !!
Chandini
I ordered in for a rainy night munch and was pleasantly surprised by how yummy my order was ! The food was packaged appropriately so that it didn't lose it's authenticity till it got delivered and was fresh and really was awesome enough to be comfort food. At the total cost of 500 I paid for Tacos , a mini bowl and dessert it was absolute value for money too !

The restaurant is at a very unassuming location in the middle of the Aundh market. It's a small place, maybe not more than 10 tables. This is a fast food joint, probably targeted at attracting the younger crowd with fairly affordable food. We visited the place on Sunday morning, guess we entered around 1230 pm. The place didn't seem ready to operate and gave me a feeling that the food items at the counter might not be fresh (same day), especially the meat.<br/><br/>We ordered a mix of veg and nonveg dishes - * loaded nachos (veg) - good taste and quite filling<br/>* Spicy Paneer quesadillas (the best dish of the meal)<br/>* Chichen tacos (average)<br/>* Chicken burrito (the roll in which the stuffing was done didn't seem fresh but it was certainly undercooked)<br/>* Chicken bowl (mix of most fillings including rice); this was again a good serving and ideal for a light meal.<br/><br/>While the whole meal costed us under Rs 900, which I thought was decent, I think the place can do better. The boys managing the counter should be attentive and active. A dull person doesn't give a good initial feel to me as a foodie. There was no bottled water available, which is a BIG miss.<br/><br/>Feedback - keep the place clean (counters, tables), keep the service crisp and sharp (the boys at the counter will get killed at their working speed if the restaurant were full 😀).<br/><br/>I would wanna revisit, try out other stuff. I can't compare if this was good Mexican food as I really haven't eaten much myself. I might up the rating if I have a better experience next time 👍
Vinod
Good Mexican options. Ideal for a quick bite on the run .<br/>Very courteous and well mannered staff too ( at least the ones that I ran into) .
Umesh Gupta
Horrible. Took 2 hours to deliver a burrito. Which was cold as stone. Different delivery service different restaurant. Never order from this place again unless you want to starve.
Gitanjalee Konwar
Took a friend here, seeing some good reviews on zomato. She absolutely hated it and started cursing me afterwards real bad! Nachos were okaish(which is why that is the only picture I felt like taking), dessert was fine too, although am not able to recall what else we had ordered. In short, am not going there again! Aundh has better places.
Radhika Sathe
Yumm is word when it comes to the delicious food you get here. The enchiladas are a perfect balance, without being over cheesy. The churros while not as thick, are tasty. The ginger lemonade is refreshing.
Alpha Madhu
Delicious AND healthy! Had the spicey chicken bowl and it had just the right combination of flavours, crunchiness and spice. Definitely a balanced meal in a bowl. You can customize your bowl to your liking

Want to try some tasty and affordable mexican food,  then do visit this place. I gave my birthday party here 2 years back.We were greeted by the place's owner who was very polite & friendly.  She guided us through the menu as it was a bit foreign to us, as the names in the menu go like Enchiladas, Quesadilla, etc.<br/> We ordered a large BBQ chicken Burrito, 3 large bowls, chermoula chicken bowl, spicy chicken bowl and herbed mushroom bowl, 1 chicken Enchilada and 1 Quesadilla. For all this order the bill came around Rs. 1500. The bowls were like a mexican salad and were yummy. Enchilada was cheesy and delicious...

A Mexican food joint. Nice place to hangout with friends in aundh. This place is on 1st floor. The food is yummy and has the mexican flavour.
Shubham Gupta
This is the place where I kind of tried my first Mexican food. Since then I have visited the place 4-5 times. Have tried different burritos, nachos + cheese sauce and beans and grilled veg tacos. <br/>Ambience is casual. <br/>May wanna visit the place next time you wanna try something mexican or spicy.
Saurabh Singh
Have been to this Mexican food joint 3/4 times. Mostly tried Rice Bowl and once Salad bowl - Both are pleasingly delish.<br/><br/>Must try if you love to experiment new cuisines :-)
