    Nios Nachos
    Andrea W.

    Had the pleasure of wondering in on national margarita day. These Nachos were sooooo yummy. They had layers of flavor and perfect for sharing. Papi's have great daily special so it's something for everyone. The only thing I didn't like was the constant country music. Its kind of threw me off considering its a mexican style place but not 1 mexican song was played the entire visit. Was disappointed

    This is for the one in lancaster... its a great location spot right in the village, the service was very respectful and the food came out fast and amazing. Everything was warm as well as very good. I recommend this place highly if your stopping through for good eats

    Hibachi taco, bang bang shrimp taco and Nashville taco

    It's Tuesday!! What's better to do than eating tacos? Eat tacos and drinking maragiritas on a patio with live music!!! So Papi Grandes was the choice!! I've never been Papi Grande's, but I've driven past it numerous times. Things I loved right off the back is that they had a kids menu for my little person, Taco Tuesday special, and they have a large patio!! So obviously, we ate on the patio. It was such a vibe, especially with the live music performance!! The waitress recommended we get the lime maragiritas bc they are $6 on Tuesdays. Our cups were pretty full. However, I wouldn't say it was my favorite maragirita. I imagine they are probably pre-made due to the special. Another taco Tuesday deal we decided to partake in was 3 specialty tacos for $15. They had pretty cool taco flavors, I chose Nashville chicken w/o pickles, bang bang shrimp, and hibachi chicken and steak !!! The waitress said it would be a wait, so I ordered the elote corn dip. About 15 minutes later, all the food came out at the same time !! Unfortunately, all the food came out cold, including the corn dip. We kept the dip because we were starving and sent back the tacos. Within another 15 minutes, our re-made orders came out. I could definitely tell that these tacos were re-made because looked much better than the initial tacos and were warm. However, were they not hot. The tacos were ok, my favorite was the hibachi because the chicken and steak were flavored very well and sauce was perfect!! Overall, the waitress was very nice and apologetic given our food. The live music was amazing but I was not very impressed with the food. I will say that it was taco Tuesday, and there were numerous customers in and outside. I'd be curious how my experience would be on a regular day. Not sure if I'd give this a second chance immediately because there are so many great Mexican restaurants in the area, but I will definitely be back some day, and I hope I will be able to change my reviews!!

    Food was ok , nothing special. I keep giving them another try ! The eggrolls were different so i enjoyed those , worst margarita i ever had ! Server was super nice , she said she was new . Didn't appreciate the smell of weed at the end of the meal , seeing i was my daughter. We were there for the live music so that was nice !

    My husband and I went here for taco Tuesday and needless to say I was very disappointed at the lack of flavor and how horrible these tacos were. Although the service and the ambience was very nice, I just couldn't get over how bad these tacos were.

    Mexican Fried Ice cream

    My friends and I come here for their fantastic nachos. Served with fresh homemade chip it is truly one of the best indulgences when you're craving something savory and light to accompany happy hour or as a treat before catching a movie next door tat the AMC. I treated myself to their mexican fried ice cream and it did not disappoint either. Watch out for their specials too!

    Great food, painfully slow service! We had a table of 7, which is larger, but not huge and there were not many other people in the restaurant... one or two other smaller tables, max. It took about an hour for us to get our food. Thankfully, when we did get our food, it was all tasty! Our orders ranged from tacos and burrito bowls to quesadillas and mac & cheese. The waiter was nice and apologetic about the long waiting time for everything. I would consider giving them another try, but definitely would not risk it if I were in a hurry... from start to finish, we were at the restaurant for about two hours! Also, the bathroom was NOT clean. Not the worst I've seen; but I'd say, don't use it if you don't have to.

    INSTANT REVIEW COMING YOUR WAY! FRESH OFF THE FIRST FEW BITES: If you see the BOGO Birria Rolls on Uber Eats, dont get dragged in, good deal, legit size, sounds great BUT "Could've been better" as my 2 Star rating says. For the good: price- BOGO: GREAT, Size of these puppies- Wonderful (Larger than the normal pizza log if you will), the side of queso was the saving grace here, that was delicious. The meat was plentiful and "alright". The roll was not crispy but I can chalk that up to ordering through Uber eats and delivery time, I even popped them in the airfryer for a little crisp, didnt really work- maybe it had to do with what tasted like/could of been brown sugar all on the roll? Is brown sugar normal for a dish like this? It def. caught me off guard! I did not like that, too sweet, thought I was a the Erie County Fair eating fried dough. Im a dipper now, so when I saw it came with a sauce-I was excited, I thought YES, great texture, thick, looked dark which I thought spicy- Nope, Neither, NO TASTE at all and I mean legit it did not have a taste. Kinda sad about these, I love apps, I love rolls, I love dips, I love tacos, I love meat and these just didnt do it for me.

    Service is great. A little above average Mexican food but everything was kinda flavorless. But good drinks and fun ambiance.

    I picked up a dessert, the Monster Cookie Sundae. It is two huge cookies( I picked chocolate chip)…read morewith vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. I am not a fan of caramel or peanut butter sauce, so asked for these two items to be excluded. I do not know what other cookie flavor choices there are; I just picked chocolate! It was nicely packed up, with the ice cream in a separate container from the warm cookie. Both made it back to my house, the ice cream still solid and the cookie still warm. It is a wonderful treat. I think it might be difficult to order this after eating wings or a pizza or even a salad first, but as a separate treat, quite nice!

    Top-notch spot for wings! We stopped in on a Friday just before 6:00 before heading to a comedy…read moreshow at UB. The location was super convenient. It was a bit busy (30-40 min wait for dining area), but there were a few tables off to the right of the bar where you could seat yourself. Luckily, one opened up right as we walked in. When seated at these tables, you have to order at the bar. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the nuggiez -- the sauce cooled the boneless bites down a little, but the flavor was still great. I loved all the sauces we tried (saucy hot cajun, medium, and garlic parm). The wings were perfectly crisp, and the steak pizza had a ton of flavor. Definitely a heavier meal, but if you're bringing someone from out of town who wants great wings, this is a spot worth taking them to.

Since then, they've become very commonly put in the best wings group for locals. However, I will say that while that is a great thing for their business, it may be a con too. This is a very small dive bar. Nice sports bar atmosphere and the staff is generally very nice and accommodating. But the last couple times we've been, we've noticed the dip in food service. We showed up at 5pm on a Saturday, and when we walked in, I kid you not, there was not one order of food on any of the tables, and the tables were filled. Very bizarre. I would assume they do a great portion of their business with door dash, and it seems as if that took priority over feeding the customers inside of the actual restaurant. It also seemed extremely overpriced. (I didn't pay much attention in the past about the price.) for 5 single order of wings, order of fingers, 1 order of onion rings, and 1 order of fries, our bill (4 adults and 2 kids) was $172. I could not believe it. You would have thought we ate at Lucia's for that price. While they are still my favorite wings, it's gonna cost you.
