Calling all Picante pups! 🐶🐾

We’ve loved seeing your dogs join you at Picante over the years, so we’re making it official: Picante Pup of the Month!

Want your pup in the running? Bring them to Picante, snap a photo during your visit, share it to your Instagram feed or Stories and tag PICANTE.

Have a private account? Just DM us a screenshot of your post or Story so we don’t miss your entry.

At the end of each month, we’ll choose one Picante Pup of the Month to feature on our Instagram. The winning pup will also get their very own Picante dog bowl. 🏆🐶

Next time you’re waiting for your food at Picante, take a look around. 👀

Jim has called the art throughout the restaurant “a lifetime of art procurement.” The masks and other pieces he’s collected over the years found their places in the dining room when he redesigned it after the remodel.

You might spot something you’ve walked past a dozen times.

Before your Picante order reaches the table, tortillas are hitting the griddle, chips are coming out of the fryer, and bowls are being finished in the kitchen.

Then, the best part: deciding where to start. 🤤

Something citrusy? Something refreshing with mint? Or the one you order every time without looking at the rest of the menu?

Berkeley is giving us some pretty perfect patio weather this week. ☀️

It’s a good excuse for a tostada salad, our signature shrimp cocktail, chips and guacamole, or a Picante bowl loaded with fresh, crunchy vegetables. Add one of our fruit agua frescas or a cold b**r, then save room for Straus Organic chocolate or vanilla soft serve.

Grab a table on the patio, or order everything to go and take dinner home. We’re open daily from 11 am to 9 pm.
