"Spicing up old St. Anthony Main..."
This elegant new Nuevo Latino lounge is a great addition to St. Anthony Main. Bringing a little youth, dancing, and fun to the area, Picosa has a large, long bar with fun specialty cocktails, unique foods, and bumping sound system, small dance floor, and outgoing staff.
The interior is large and open with high ceilings and nice woodwork surrounding the large bar area. There is also a side area with booths and tables for dining. At night, this area is sectioned off to allow for more activity. Of course, it also has a large (dog-friendly) patio facing the river; an excellent spot for the summer which opens by large glass doors so no matter where you're sitting it feels like you're outdoors.
Food is South American cuisine, playing on unique blends of spices and adding flair to traditional dishes. Favorites entres ($16-20) are the Tomatillo Pork, skirt steak, octopus salad, but there is also a wide range of seafood selections and excellent appetizers. Picosa is a great spot to be whether you want to come early and join the older patrons for dining or if you want to come later for the younger crowd and dancing, Picosa really should have what you're looking for.
