SarahNovember 9, 2014The margarita is made with fresh juice, the salsa is warm, the chips are fresh and the guacamole is incredible. And it's in an airport? This is my new go-to spot in the Dallas airport.
I'm not big on beans and rice for health reasons so my tip is to get a la carte items. My go to are enchiladas... mix and match. Everything is delicious. If you're gonna eat carbs make em delicious!
Danica JonesDecember 23, 2013I was very impressed with my meal. Fresh squeezed orange juice in my Mimosa, and a great breakfast quesadilla plus some great customer service. A great stop for wayward travelers.
Simon WillisonJuly 25, 2014Way better than airport food has any right to be - the beef and chicken fajitas (not sizzling) were excellent
Elisa VazquezDecember 28, 2013I'm sorry, can you not be happy with giant margaritas? Service is quick & the drinks are what you need. Worth checking in early or during layovers
David PittsSeptember 8, 2016Service was good and fast, food is the temperature of the earth's core. Several local beers on tap. Beef enchiladas are pretty good.
Paul SamahaJune 25, 2013Come in and grab the chips with the freshly made guacamole. It's only $10, makes a light meal, and it tastes heavenly.
LeahApril 5, 2016Thin and crispy chips with warm salsa to start and all their portions are huge and delicious- plus their Bloody Mary's are smoky!
Alana HaddoxSeptember 5, 2013At first I was a little taken aback by the prices. But my grande margarita was huge and they mixed flavors for me - I got the chicken sandwich which turned out to be gigantic. Pretty tasty!
Doug PriceFebruary 25, 2019It's great food and fast to keep you on track to make your flight. It is a limited menu compared to their big restaurants. Margarita's are great but pricey
Chris CosgroveMarch 25, 2013Don't sit with a view of the kitchen, they break all the health inspector rules, touching open straws with fingers, putting cherries on shakes with fingers, all staff drinking in prep area.
SH CarDecember 17, 2014Best burrito I've had in months. Granted, I was spending it in New England where almost zero burrito places exist and that I was extremely hungry, but it was so good.
Michael MJanuary 10, 2015Be sure to get the tortilla chips & salsa -- the smoky warm (temperature) salsa is great and the chips are some of the best I've ever had.
'Bo' MahaneyApril 20, 2013We had fajitas for two (beef and chicken). I rated it a 9. Chris rated it a 7.5 Get the beef. Much better than el polo.
Yaeka KatsutaSeptember 18, 2014There are no vegetarian options on the menu but they are very accommodating and can offer options off-menu. The queso was especially delicious!
Annmarie HillOctober 21, 2013The chicken sandwich with avocado ranch and pico de gallo is incredible!! The fries...not so much.- Shanda TapiaApril 6, 2013The fajitas are fantastic, both beef and chicken. The portion is also good for two especially after all the warm chips and salsa you'll end up eating.
Shannon SomogyiNovember 6, 2012We had a 3 hr. layover and took a chance on coming from terminal D to A. Glad we did! This place was great! Great food and Rita's!!!!!!!
Damian BayonaMay 22, 2017It's what you expect. Warm chips and salsa. Cheesy quesadillas. Tasty margaritas. A good place to console your undoubted AA delay woes 🅰️🅰️👎🏻
Eric KoeppOctober 30, 2013Chicken enchiladas really good. Suggest about a hour and a half or more between flights to eat there. Great place to kill time.
If you have a layover in Terminal A, Pappasito's is the place to go. Good food. Portion sizes are quite large so you might consider sharing a dish with someone. They do a good job at breakfast too.
Justin LisenbyApril 28, 2019Really good chips and salsa. Great Mexican food. A little pricey but very good.
If you're in a hurry or just want to save on gratuity, get some tacos to go. Then take them to the food court at A25 if you want to eat them at a table.
Robyn HolmanSeptember 3, 2014Delicious margaritas and an outlet just over the bar... Perfect for a layover!
Cass AndersonAugust 2, 2013Excellent burger, got the recommendation from the bartender who was friendly, all around solid experience.
Ronny CernigaOctober 30, 2011Wow- I've never had such good food at an airport- yes the serving sizes are very big. Had the chicken spinach quesadillas, I'm stuffed!
Liz McLainFebruary 17, 2013Great food and a super friendly staff. If you're there for breakfast, try the quesadillas!
Luis JorgeJanuary 25, 2015Probably the best place for breakfast if your not in the mood for coffee or Fish
Doug CaldwellJune 2, 2011Located terminal A, gate A24, very close to Skylink train stop. Got Baja fish tacos (fried or grilled tilapia), substituted black beans for refried ones. See photo.
Lauren HayesOctober 13, 2011The Cancun burrito is awesome!! I got it to go and I think it was the best airport food I've had in a long time!
- David JohnsonDecember 3, 2013Grilled Baja Fish Tacos are fantastic! This will be a goto place when I am through DFW!
Alisa JacobsJune 28, 2011The cheese enchiladas I got for take out have some beef in them. Vegetarians, take note! Everyone else, they're still pretty good. But the salsa is smoky tasting...not my fave.
J.P. GreerFebruary 26, 2013Best fajitas I've ever had. Holy Lord, this place is too good to be in an airport. And Negra Modelo on draft.
Ro-BlackOctober 2, 2012The shakes are really good, the shorter, wider straws make the shake easier to enjoy;-)
Michael NasutiOctober 18, 2013The Chipotle Bloody Mary might be the greatest one I've ever had. It's also spicy as hell, so tread lightly.
Jess PaganOctober 12, 2014Tell them when is your next flight ✈ and they will deliver your order with that consideration!!
- christianneJanuary 3, 2012the stuffed grilled shrimp are amazing, and the cheese enchiladas. hands down the best airport food i've ever had.
Christina CJune 13, 2012Delish! Get the Coronado plate. Lots of food and really good. Service is excellent
Brittany PereiraJune 6, 2012Moderately pricey drinks, but hey - it's in an airport. Don't forget the chips & salsa...their's is quite tasty!
Kaycie HylandSeptember 21, 2011The crispy chicken tacos are wonderful! Very fresh and well seasoned. Ask for Brian - he's wonderful
Steve FMay 28, 2010Get the breakfast burrito which they sell at the to go window, even if you sit down. And then ask for salsa to add to it. It's awesome!!
