Picazo Sushi Poke Catering | Our Story

Family-crafted sushi and poke in Oak Lawn

Family-crafted sushi and poke in Oak Lawn

Picazo Sushi & Poke started with a simple conviction: Dallas deserved great sushi made with real care. Octavio and Renee Barriga built that restaurant together on Maple Avenue.
The Barrigas' passion for Asian cuisine

The Barrigas' passion for Asian cuisine

Octavio and Renee Barriga opened Picazo out of a genuine love for Asian cuisine — not a franchise opportunity, not a trend to chase. It's a husband-and-wife restaurant in the truest sense, where both of them show up every day.
15 years in the DFW sushi world

15 years in the DFW sushi world

Chef Octavio spent more than 15 years learning his craft across the Dallas–Fort Worth restaurant scene. That depth of experience is what you taste in every roll that leaves his kitchen.
Japanese technique, Hawaiian flavor

Japanese technique, Hawaiian flavor

The menu draws from Japanese precision and the bright, fresh spirit of Hawaiian poke. Sushi burritos, poke bowls, and sushi tacos share the menu because, for the Barrigas, those traditions belong together.
A small family business, a warm welcome

A small family business, a warm welcome

Picazo is a small, family-owned spot on Maple Avenue, and the Barrigas want it to feel that way when you walk in. They're genuinely thankful for every guest who has made their Oak Lawn community the foundation of this place.
