Excellent 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.

I 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?

Fantastic 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 Rowley

The 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 Zarzycki

Everything 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 Belcher

Carla 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.

The 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!

There 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
