Thank you, Annette, for the wonderful experience at Sito's! You were very attentive and recommended a great dish for me to try. The food was absolutely delicious, and your outstanding service was the cherry on top. This was my first time trying their Birria tacos, and they were packed with so much flavor that I seriously considered going back today for a togo order. The combination of great food and superior service is the best experience ever! I'll definitely be back! read more

I can't even tell you how many times I've brought clients here. This is my go to in nw houston for amazing Tex Mex. Their beef and chicken fajitas are phenomenal! It gets pretty loud here during lunch time and dinner time. Although I noticed the last few Friday lunches it's been low key empty, which is rare here. Maybe the economy is slowing down. Great customer, great food. Ive been coming here for 20 years plus. I'll continue to come here for many years to come. read more

Quite an amazing experience. Gigantic portion and find of America+Tex Mex fusion that really hits the spot. Well worth the effort and the prices, which lean to the premium side. read more

We have attempted to go to this Pappasitos several times but the patio has been closed for a few months now. We are patio people and don't know why the patio isn't ever open. If the patio would have been open we would have eaten here on multiple occasions, but went somewhere else instead. read more

Pappasito's is like that cool jacket you bought a long time ago. It still fits and when you put it on it turns heads. But you always wonder if it was worth all the money it costs. This trip to Pappasito's I got my usual Seafood Enchiladas and a Presidente Margarita. My wife got the Tulum Combination Plate. Every thing was good, the seafood in the enchiladas was cooked perfectly, the shrimp were seasoned well and had a pop when you bit them. The scallops were firm and sweet with a nice sear. My wife's combination plate was great. She never finishes so I ate about a third of it. The chicken in the fajita taco was juicy and perfect, the cheese enchilada was flavorful, and the tamale was mouth watering. Pappasito's is good, but like that old jacket you notice the flaws. The decor used to be trendy and special now it seems more manufactured and stale. The service is a well oiled machine, efficient but mostly impersonal..., and that would be okay if it wasn't so expensive! read more

Came here because the husband wanted Mexican, food was delicious ( super tasteful), drinks were a 10 out of 10 and the queso fundido was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend! Our waitress, Jackie, was an absolute sweetheart! The ambiance was family friendly at the table yet the bar you can enjoy some drinks single or in couple. read more

Friendly service, great food, excellent lunch stop. Carnitas burrito one of the best I have had...pork, marinade, grilled onions and peppers., great filling. Ah Yes...fish tacos also a great choice. Didn't have the sopaipillas because too full from the entree but did see a platter on the bar. Advice is to skip the chips and salsa and save room for the sopaipillas....can't go wrong... read more

Having catered with Pappasito's many times in the past I've always enjoyed their Fajitas. The steak/chicken mix is always a classic for me and this recent visit didn't disappoint. The sizzling plate was full of great flavors, the steak was tender and savory, grilled just right. The only thing I don't like are their chips, very thin and personally I'm not a big fan of the buttery taste myself. I know I may be in the minority on that opinion but their fajitas gets the love from me. Service was very smooth for our private room event, plenty of waiters in/out and helped with the drink orders. Everything came out great. Plenty of parking in this location in a shared shopping plaza. We came on a weekday and the ambiance was very lively with a few birthday celebrations, very busy location. read more

Pappasitos Cantina - Chicken and Steak mix - Tex-Mex Near Me - Houston, Texas

This location is the worst I've ever been to, they don't live up to the customer service levels that most locations live by. Management was also not helpful even once I address my issue, they avoided me. I would NOT recommend this location to anyone. To add insult to injury my dissatisfaction came as we celebrated my daughter's graduation. read more

The service here is always great, although it does get busy. They had some great Valentine's specials, but we always love their fajitas and fresh chips and salsa. The tables may be crowded near each other but you still feel like you're in your own space and can have your own conversations. Bar seating or table seating only. read more

I order a margarita that was being promoted on the table. Not realizing until I took a sip that it was $49.95. Yes you got that right. The $49.95 was in tint writing and I was floored. I called to complain to the manager and was told they have nothing to do with the pricing of promotional items. Really? I have never in my life paid $49.95 for a drink until now. I took a sip so I had to pay for it. I know I'll have to get over it but still that is not right to charge $49.95 for a drink Oh well, I will never step foot in pappasito's again. This location or any location. read more

Can count on an excellent vegetarian meal or big meat tacos for the family. All the standard selections are super jum!

Andrew is a great manager! Shake his hand if you visit !! This is long but I DO encourage you to trade here bc they will take care of you!!!! Stopped here on way out of town with my wife and daughter. Short wait Seated at table in bar bc it was faster (I was worried ) I have bad luck with bar seating Two out of three silverware bundles had dirty spoons with caked on food. Waitress brought chips No salsa Ordered drinks and queso They came about 10 mins later Still no salsa I asked another person for salsa and they passed it along three people, it never came until about 10 more mins Ordered food and plus drink refill Daughter ordered one drink but was given a different one. They were VERY attentive to a food allergy Way more than most any other restaurant I've been in, very professional. Two chicken tacos with meat and cheese double beans Combo fajitas with boracho beans and rice with flour tortillas One a La cart beef enchilada with chile con carne meat sauce Food was delivered, some of it, Without tortillas and enchilada She came back and We asked for both she said they were coming They didn't show up so we asked again Enchilada did arrive but no tortillas Let me say ALL THE FOOD TASTED FANTASTIC tacos, beans, rice, meat, all of it BEST ENCHILADA I've eaten in years!!!!! So good quality and ambiance were NOT a problem at all So she comes by as we finished and we asked about tortillas, of course we were done eating at this point but we told her they never arrived Minutes later Andrew arrived, the manager, and told us he heard we had a rough time. He asked us to explain, which so many people don't, and was great Andrew took such good care of us on the final bill and MADE IT RIGHT!! We were so blessed by him and he threw in dessert for my daughter-Tres leches cake for free!! She was so excited And it was beautiful! I ate the strawberries on the side!! Andrew was amazing and I encourage anyone to spend their hard earned money here if they want good quality food and a great management staff!! read more

Salt salt and more salt, I have been eating at Pappasito's for many many years, but I can't even review my dinner much further than just way too much salt, this goes way beyond being salty, I just can't believe how much salt there was on the food, you can go through years of my reviews and I don't think I've ever commented on salt before, but this was ridiculous. This is expensive food this is not a Taqueria and they should do better, beyond that the service was mediocre at best, my waitress must have been fairly new because she didn't seem to know her menu at all and it took forever to get anything and the restaurant just wasn't that busy. I truly hope this was a one off experience and the next time I go, I will have the food that I have come to enjoy over the years. read more

Good service. Good customer service for call in order. However when I arrived home I realized the quantity of food was not worth the price.

We came here today and ordered the steak and chicken fajitas, kids Mac and Cheese, chicken and cheese quesadillas and lunch snapper taco and chicken enchilada. The fajitas were average and a bit lacking in flavor. The Mac and cheese was dry and had little to no sauce. The quesadillas were made perfect. The lunch snapper taco was epic but the enchilada had no flavor and was very dry. The rice and refried beans also had no flavor and were very dry. The service was ok but not great. The ambiance was relaxing but we also came on a Monday afternoon. I would not recommend this location. read more

I came here with some coworkers on a Friday afternoon right before Christmas. It was decently busy, but we were seated quickly. While our server was nice, she took a VERY long time to come and take our orders after bringing our drinks. We even had to ask another server to grab her for us. She came back, got all of our orders correct, but it was just such a long time between seeing her. The food itself was ok, the portions seemed big, even for items on the lunch menu. I got fajita steak quesadillas, and a beef taco. The taco was really big but tasted just right. Sweet tea was also pretty good. One thing my table noticed was that there was a server carrying a tray of food on her shoulder and her hair was literally touching plates - yuck!! We saw this not once, but twice. We were so thankful that she didn't bring out our food. Overall, we were not disappointed or beyond pleased with our experience. For some of my coworkers, this was their first time here, and they said they were glad to check this off of their list of places to try, meaning they didn't need to come back. I've had other good experiences with this chain, this one wasn't the best. read more

When visiting Houston you have to get Tex mex as well as stop at one of the Pappa restaurants. I ordered the fajita lunch portion of steak/chicken. Loved the steak, but felt the chicken was so/so. Great sides and there chips/salsa are great too. Wonderful customer service and attentive to drink refills. read more

Every time we come to Houston, the Pappas restaurants are a must-stop. We had a table of 8 and Deshawn was our waiter. He did a fabulous job! Very professional, attentive, had good suggestions, and got our food out quickly. He was very friendly, funny, and we all enjoyed the great service (one of my must-haves when I go out to eat.) The food was delicious. The cocktails were amazing. We all had different entrees and we were all very happy. The brownie dessert was really really good, but I was so full I couldn't finish it. I had the cheese enchiladas and they were the best ever! I want to reiterate what a professional and great waiter Deshawn was bc at the end there was a problem with an entree one of the party ordered to go that didn't get delivered to the table by the time we were done. I commend Deshawn for the way he handled a small problem that got turned into a needless complaint from someone in our party. I'd like to apologize on behalf of our party and assure the management that Deshawn handled everything perfectly and we even tipped him extra to make up for any miscommunication from our guests. Thank you Deshawn and thank you to all the staff at this location. They are top notch! read more

Excellent place for fajitas and freshly in house made tortillas. Always delicious and fresh and hot, no matter the location of the restaurant. Service was great even with a new trainee, the mentor fixed our order quickly and provided great service regardless. It was a quiet Thursday and still a little busy. Great place for Tex Mex. read more

This place was good. We did the shareable fajitas and wow what a presentation. I've never seen anything like that, very cool. The steak was by far our favorite and the chicken was the least favorite, it was a bit dry. We also got queso and guac for appetizers and both were great. A few of us said it's some of the best quac we've had. The server was decently nice but the restaurant was extremely loud and it was difficult for our group to hear each other. read more

Nice spot and pretty good at accommodating a large party (it was about 8 of us). Took a star because when asked for another serving of the complimentary salsa, the waitress took some off of another table that had been sitting there before we even got there and put it on our table. We were literally right next to the chips/salsa area so why she did that, I'm honestly not sure. I was just like alright, not going to eat that lol not serious enough to complain about either. Just odd to me. They also ran out of straws so drinking frozen margaritas was a little difficult. Food was decent, drinks were really good. read more

Pappasitos Cantina - Chicken Fajita Nachos - Tex-Mex Near Me - Houston, Texas

So my first time here while visiting on a work trip. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted by the bartender for a drink. After a little bit they took my order and when the food came out, it looked fantastic. It wasn't your typical beans and rice oval plate type Mexican restaurant. Everything tasted good except for the taquito. The chicken inside had a very strange taste almost like a chemical taste maybe soap or something else I couldn't put my finger on it. I I of course, did not eat it, but the rest was great. Service was great solid three stars if that's average minus one for the weird tasting chicken. read more

This #3 feed 2 adults and 2 children. #3 Grilled Lamb Chops, Shrimp Fajita, Beef Fajita & Grilled Chicken. Oh Oh so good. With beans, rice, and tortillas. Lemonade and Daiquiris for the beverage. We also had sweet and spicy ribs for an appetizer. We ate them as soon as they hit the table. The meat was falling off the bone, licking the fingers good. Didn't take the time to take a picture. Maybe these two entrées are new to the menu. The party was on. Service was like any other weekend. Traditional Mexican ambiance. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious wait time for online pick up order is very consistent with the time you choose to pick up.

I really enjoyed the food and service at Pappasito's! We ordered the quest with chicharron as an appetizer and pappasito's grill for my entree. The tortillas were fresh and the meat was tender. The pappasito's grill is served on a skewer, but the server takes it off the skewers before you get to eat it, so I wouldn't mind if it just came without the skewer (less hands touching the food). I ordered a house margarita. Everything was served quickly and for a major chain, the food is spot on! read more

I succumbed to convenience today, sadly, because I am a slow eater, and because my hour lunch break limits my ability to where I can dine out for lunch, thus I encountered another disappointing Tex-mex experience. Also, Idk if it's COVID that has affected prices at Pappasitos, but it felt like prices went up! I thought lunch specials were supposed to be lower in price than the dinner menu, but clearly you're paying for quantity over quality here. Friendly disclaimer: if you are sensitive to the mix of tap water and soda syrup, don't order soda from this location. Tasted terrible! If this is a budget issue and cutting costs in this area is necessary, maybe you can offer an alternative, or at least provide bottled sodas for those, like myself, who find distaste in such mixtures! Service was good, decent, but food was terrible. Shredded, flavorless dry chicken, same kind in both my enchilada and crispy taco. Crispy taco shell was a bit dry and stale, then soggy. For some reason the sauce over my enchiladas tasted like mole, which I wasn't expecting. Ordered: lunch special chicken tinga enchiladas, generally spicy, but not this one...and crispy chicken taco...totally disappointing. I also found a chicken bone in my enchiladas!! That caught me by surprise, and not in a good way. Rice was okay, but also quite flavorless and a bit dry. Charro beans were salty and didn't taste house made, and overall portion size was not ideal. There's a reason why I haven't stepped inside a Pappasitos for years... I am also limited in my review, because I am not a huge fan of fajitas, but many people are...maybe their fajitas are good, but I'm just not a fan. read more

The food was excellent. It is more like Tex-Mex, but still exceptional service and the food was great. We will be back again!

Love love. Have been eating there for about 40 years. Miss campfire shrimp. Yummo. Highly recommend.

Our waitress Brooke, was awesome. She took care of about 17 people and she did such a great job. The food, as always, wonderful and massive portions. Dear management, we continue to have people's cars broken into. If you want us to come back as customers, you've got to give us a more safe and secure environment. We are so jaded that we think that your "patrol guards" are part of the deal. I can't believe that was so many guards patrolling that there would be so many break-ins. read more

Sitting at bar for happy hour, the bartender most unattentive, sad Ive ever seen. She appears to be unhappy and doesn't want to work. Sweetie you should have called in.

I was very hesitant eating at a chain Mexican restaurant but I had such a great experience. Walking in I loved the fun yet calming atmosphere provided by the decor and layout. The servers and managers were all friendly (especially Jorge and Deandre, I hope I spelled their names right), patient and answered any questions we had. We had the chicken and beef fajitas, and not only was it delicious it was also so much food! To finish off the meal we had a nice piece of Tres Leches which I would definitely go back for. It's a nice, easy place for a quick sit down Mexican meal. read more

I enjoy coming to pappasitos with my friends. However, we've noticed over time that price have increased significantly. And yes, in accordance with inflation, but a dish that I would often order has gone up to $33.00 + dollars from what was only a few years ago priced at $19.00. I now order from the appetizer menu in order to stay below $50.00 with my usual glass of white wine. I believe I am running out of options for dishes below $20.00.
