Harante Haroutiounian NetoMay 14, 2017Excellent best Tex Mex restaurante I've ever been. Fresh and tasty food. Loved it. Definitely it's a place to come back in the future.
Mike DNovember 1, 2016I asked for a pickle and pimento load sandwich and they gave me a lobster enchilada, a bar of salsa soap and a handshake- wonder what I'd get if whistled Dixie?- Super DadMay 27, 2017Fantastic Fajitas!!! Best I've had in Dallas! The "Pappasito's Grill Fajitas" were amazing (Steak/Chicken/Bacon-Wrapped-Shrimp)!!! Yummy!!! Service & Bar staff were awesome!!!
- Erik RowleyMay 20, 2015The exterior decor is an enchanting and rustic facade that resembles a mysterious Mexican village. Inside was packed at lunch! Anything Tex Mex is a solid choice here. Try the brisket tacos!
Lisa ZarzyckiMay 1, 2022Everything was fantastic! Our waiter, Leo, made our night. Great food and drink tops, fantastic service and such a fun guy. If we lived here, this would be a regular for us.
Candace BelcherSeptember 17, 2019Carla was FANTASTIC! She said order anything w/ beef. The pappasitos grill with steak, bacon wrapped shrimp and chicken was DELICIOUS! We had fish tacos, the grill dish was better. Portions are huge.
Amy B.October 13, 2013The food is amazing, but our waiter was the star of the show. Bret is The Best Waiter I've ever had IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. Ask for him, a sangria and beef fajitas. You will not be sorry!
Dallas ObserverAugust 4, 2014There has to be a reason to brave these lines--even on a particularly crummy Saturday afternoon--and it's the fajita plates, big enough to choke a Chihuahua. Read more
- Chris FJune 9, 2016Love the beef fajitas and table side guacamole! Great bar and happy hour specials!!!
Mariah AnnOctober 5, 2015The food is delicious and so are the drinks. All in all a great place to dine in on the weekends with friends, family or a lover.
Jill PisarekJune 18, 2015Crab cake stuffed shrimp is phenomenal! The brisket tacos were delicious too.
Renee PinedaMarch 9, 2014They have mariachi's here.. awesome, they play everything traditional and Bruno Marz! Made food and drinking 10X enjoyable
Great Top Shelf Margaritas! Regular ones too! I also always order Shrimp Brochettes. The best! With beef Fajitas.. :)
Jeff SolomonMarch 2, 2020The lunch specials are big enough to share. Try the enchiladas with chicken tinga
Edward RoskeMay 4, 2013Try the table-side guacamole. It's performance art that you can eat afterwards.
The 14oz serving size for two very satisfying for our appetite.
MyloSeptember 8, 2013Brianna was a great cocktail waitress. She kept the conversation light and the drinks and snacks coming!!
Brittani KirkwoodOctober 26, 2013It was so tasty. The best Mexican food unless you get the real deal from the mom and pops
Greg DalrympleOctober 22, 2013Hector and Bree are the best bartenders during lunch! Great service and very friendly!!
Super yummy, our waiter was a little scatterbrained but I'll cut him a little slack since he was cool!!
One of our favorite places for family night. Always ask for Ambrosio! Great waiter! :)
Chelsie HallFebruary 8, 2012Yummmmmy. Salsa, fajitas, & quesidillas! One of my fave Mexican restuarants in Dallas!
John BelenJanuary 7, 2013Try the Combination Fajitas - Lunch Special with bacon wrapped shrimps! Dang!
Lovely G.June 2, 2015Had the shrimp fajitas which was plenty but it took so long for the food to come out, that I couldn't enjoy it.
Sandy HaleFebruary 20, 2012Hanging with my homies. Thank you so much to them for getting me out. I need it.
Andy GarzaAugust 19, 2010Mexico City Style Chicken and Rice Soup is delicious! You have got to try it.
