We had the guacamole and salsa, I recommend mixing them together, they pair surprisingly well. A little pricey at $9.60 for the plate. For entrees, we had the green chile chicken enchiladas and carne adovada Christmas style. The latter is one of the most distinct and delicious regional dishes I've had. All entrees had really nice pairings with pinto beans, potato hash, and freshly cooked sopapillas. We chose to have the sopapillas with honey as a dessert, but there's the option to stuff them with the entree.

They have ample seating in brightly lit areas and even patio seating. It was fun busy and alive on a Tuesday night. Our server was so wonderful, very happy and relaxed it's a sign of a good place. All the front staff were wonderful workers and seem to work very harmoniously. My coworker and I had t different things he got a smothered burrito and I got the brisket combo, both dishes were too much food for too grown men. Delicious and huge portions plus a really nice presentation. The wait was a bit long but that just means they are making everything before service. The only hard part was parking, it's a small lot so be prepared to walk a block or two during dinner rush. Trust me it's totally worth it!!!

So glad we did, it was a great experience for a large group. There were 8 of us and no complaints, that is always a win! The food is delicious, definitely very New Mexican though, so make sure that is what you are wanting. There was a long wait time for a table, which is typical for a Friday night most places. The food came out fast and are good portions. Service was amazing: quick, correct, were on top of drink refills, to go boxes and bags, and great teamwork and energy from staff.

When they ask if you want green or red sauce on your enchiladas, don't fall for the green sauce is milder. Ask for the sauce on the side. I got green sauce on my pork enchiladas and had to get some guacamole to keep my tongue from burning up. The Carne Adovada is excellent. Very flavorful pork.

Service: when you walk in you're greeted by the person at the small pony wall. They have signs for specials and menus. You should select a table and then decide what to eat before going to the window and ordering. They do not take your order at the table. Food: very tasty and fresh. Reminds me of Tex-mex food. The beans were delicious!! The sauce they use is hot sauce thickness it was fresh and delicious. The red sauce had a kick to it. Glad we stopped in and tried it out.

My husband is very hard to please, he had a ground beef burrito, he said he's had better. I had the two taco plate. The taco shells were the best part! The tasted fresh and coolly expertly. It was served with pinto beans, Guacamole and chips. It was a large plate, I could only eat 1.5 of the tacos, even though those taco shells were so good. Parking was tricky when we arrived. We parked out back. That back lot is fairly small. Interior was simple, but again, staff made it special,

LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE…read more I walked into Papa Felipe's thinking I was about to eat dinner. Nah. I accidentally unlocked the secret ending. The first bite hit me so hard I had to do a factory reset on my taste buds. REEEEEEEEEEEE. I literally looked around the restaurant like an NPC waiting for someone else to acknowledge what just happened. There is NO WAY these flavors spawned naturally. The enchiladas? Illegal. The chile? Peak human civilization. The sopapillas? I almost stood up and started clapping like I had just witnessed the greatest anime finale of all time. Every bite was a critical hit. My health bar wasn't just restored--it got overhealed. I told myself, "I'll take half of this home." Narrator: *He did not.* Five minutes later my plate looked like archaeologists had excavated it. Not a crumb. Not a molecule. If there was a side quest to lick the plate clean without getting judged, I would've 100% completed it. Whoever cooked my food wasn't a chef. Bro is a level 99 food wizard with maxed-out Cooking and Forbidden Flavor Technique. Gordon Ramsay would probably take one bite, say "fair enough," and leave. At one point I took such a good bite I forgot what year it was. Bills? Gone. Responsibilities? Deleted. Student loans? I don't even have any but somehow those disappeared too. I entered a state of enlightenment only achievable through absurdly good New Mexican food. My friend asked, "How is it?" I just looked at him and went... "LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE." No further explanation was needed. If this restaurant has 10 million fans, I'm one of them. If it has 10 fans, I'm one of them. If it has 1 fan, it's me. If it has 0 fans... ...REEEEEEEEEEEEEE... ...it's because I ascended after eating here. Absolute cinema. Peak cuisine. Michelin should start giving out 6th stars just for this place. I'd fight three geese, a Costco-sized raccoon, and a level 100 IRS agent for another plate.Would absolutely consume again.

While I usually don't have an opinion on rice, I will say the rice on my plate wasn't very good...it had a lot of sauce, although not very flavorful. The plate also arrived with good sopapillas. I really enjoyed the interior of the restaurant - it was dark, moody and almost a step back in time since I'll assume the decor hasn't changed since they first opened. I'd visit again and try some of the other items on their menu.

I ordered the enchiladas and long and behold they were served flat as a traditional New Mexican staple. Layered with cheddar cheese and smothered in their incredible green chile sauce. The sauce is easily the star of the dish. It's rich , flavorful, and just the right amount of heat. Instead of chips and salsa, my meal came with fresh sopapillas, and they're far from an afterthought. They came out warm and fluffy and absolutely delicious. Just one quick tip, Padilla is cash only so be prepared.
