Picante

For over 30 years, Picante has been serving fresh, vibrant Mexican food inspired by founder Jim Maser’s studies of regional cuisines in Mexico. Every dish is crafted with care, featuring housemade tortillas, salsas, and locally sourced ingredients. From tender carnitas to rich mole and pozole, our menu celebrates the flavors of Mexico. Our newly remodeled space blends festive Mexican decor with modern touches, creating a welcoming atmosphere for all — and the flexibility to easily accommodate large walk-in groups. Prefer to dine at home? Order online or call us for delivery or take-out, with a convenient curbside drive-up for quick on-the-go orders and catering pick-ups. Picante is where authentic flavors meet the heart of Berkeley.
