I placed a pick up order and my food was ready right when I arrived. The service was friendly, and…read moreI really appreciate how customizable the menu is. You can choose breaded or unbreaded (naked) meats and pick from several seasoning options. Everything I ordered was seasoned well and had that homemade quality.
I ordered the Big Family Meal, which comes with your choice of four meats, two full sides, and two drinks. It's a lot of food for the price.
For the meats I selected, naked chicken bites with barbecue seasoning, naked steak bites with black velvet sauce, naked pork bites with garlic Parmesan seasoning, sliced hot links with Cajun rub.
All four were flavorful and cooked well. The Garlic Parmesan pork bites were put into the same container as the steak bites with black velvet sauce , so it all combined together. The flavors do meld together nicely, so not a deal.
For sides, I went with the 1/2 loaded potato salad and 1/2 mashed potatoes w/ side of gravy and macaroni and cheese.
These were solid choices. The mashed potatoes on their own were decent, but adding the white gravy takes them up a notch.
I also ordered the chili with cheese. It had plenty of ground beef and great seasoning. It didn't have beans, which I personally prefer, so I add a can at home and heat it through. The portion was generous, and although it was a touch salty for my taste, it was still a really good chili.
The mac & cheese deserves a shout out, some of the best I've had from a restaurant. Very flavorful, lots of seasoning, and even bacon bits. The noodles were slightly overcooked in my batch, but the taste was excellent.
For Dessert, I tried the mini cheesecake bite with raspberry sauce. The crust was a bit too crunchy for me, but the raspberry sauce had a nice tartness, and the cheesecake filling was creamy.
The only item I didn't love was the sliced sausage. It was sliced lengthwise instead of in rounds, and the texture was a little rubbery. I prefer round slices, but the flavor was still good.
Overall, Pisonero's offers great service, customizable options, and plenty of homemade flavor.
