My guess is it's a sliding scale-prices depend on how Spanish or not you may be. Perhaps if you work on your Spanish speaking they'll give you a discount. One can only speculate.

The seating is spacious, plentiful, and the most casual (think of mom and pop).

Both the fish and the prawns were cooked in a red sauce that was delicious! I meant to ask for blue corn tortillas but was so excited to find shrimp & fish tacos that weren't deep-fried that I forgot to ask for them. The regular corn tortillas were excellent, though, so it was not a bad mistake to make. I also had jamaica to drink and let me tell you... it was not made from a mix! It was dark, thirst-quenching, and perfectly made. Most jamaica is super sweet - this was not! I love the flavor of real hibiscus and this did not disappoint. My friends had chile relleno bowls and birria tacos, all of which was excellent. Their watermelon margaritas were tasty and refreshing! Our orders were taken by a helpful person at the cash register and the food was served quickly by a friendly server. The inside and outside areas were clean and tidy, with plenty of seating available at the outside tables. The outdoor seating area is under cover making it a good choice for both summer & winter dining. Definitely going on my "have to go back and try something else" list!

The red sauce is good but not like the green sauce. Cons: 1) Maybe it's an off day but the mulitas, quesotaco and vampiro meat is mediocre and the cheese on these didn't shine like it did on the quesadilla - almost plastic tasting like. 2) Consome is very mild, doesn't really compliment the meal Overall rating 3.25/5, the sauces bring the rating to 4/5 if you really want to count that.

And to be honest, we were debating whether to get papi chulo's or not since it was a weeknight and we never eat out on weeknights. Safe to say, it was a mistake. They told her on the phone that our pick up order would be ready in 10 min. I walked in there 15 min later to get it, and it was not ready. The gentleman helping me out when I walked in looked like he had zero idea what I was talking about when I mentioned the pick up order name. He then immediately walked away from me and went to the register, and proceeded to ask me what I ordered and at this point, I knew he didn't know what it was and he said, "oh, it will be ready in 7 minutes." I ordered only 3 Breakfast burritos with no meat or anything in them - so, I thought 7 min wasn't too bad. Boy, was I wrong. It actually took 20 min (yes, 20 min) with me standing there by the table until the order was ready with no number or anything. I'll remind you all that there were legit 2 other customers in there and ONE CUSTOMER received their order before our 3 breakfast burritos were ready! That isn't right. I get sometimes food takes awhile, but both of them didn't apologize or anything while I was waiting. I've been to Muchas Gracious waiting for my order before, and they offered me a free drink because they felt bad they were having me wait 5 min! I don't accept it because I felt bad, but the point is, the lack of accountability and customer service during this experience was dreadful. And to be honest, the times I've been here, they haven't ever been too nice to me. After the order was finally ready, the lady working by the grill stuffed in at least 10 plastic containers of hot sauce into my bag. When we got home, most of them opened up and it left the biggest mess in the bag! Come on guys. This was just bad. Plus, my burritos were greasy anyways and tasted off. (See picture of the mess). I won't lie, there's plenty of other Mexican restaurants and establishments I can go to other than Papi Chulo's. Pretty disappointing experience overall and I can guarantee you I won't be going back anytime soon. I'd give the experience a 1/10 and the food a 2/10.

They grabbed a drink cup and used that cup to scoop ice into, their fingers now touching the ice. The cashier's thumb pressed the inside of my drink lid as they separated one from the stack. All while wearing the same gloves that touched cash and the order screen. I refused the beverage and asked to speak to the Lead. The Lead "V" had a stone face while I told them what happened. "I'll talk to my staff." Was the only response. "V" went back to food prep without talking to the cashier. I sat down but was really grossed out. I watched that same cashier with gloved hands make an overflowing chocolate milkshake, touching the inside of the cup, the rim of the cup, and the food itself. "V" removed their food prep gloves before handing me my cash back after I requested my order canceled. I asked "V" if the cashier had changed their gloves yet after handling cash. "I believe so" was the response. Not definitive. Not "I immediately corrected them to prevent further contamination." Not "I saw them change their gloves, so I know they did so." I was calm and polite the whole time but just really disappointed that the staff do not understand how gloves work and that the staff in charge don't care. Gloves are to keep everything sanitary, not to protect your hands from getting dirty. That's what soap and water are for, and staff are supposed to wash their hands before putting new gloves on EVERY TIME.

It took around 30 minutes before my buzzer notified me that my order was ready. Upon unwrapping it, my first impression was that it looked a bit underwhelming--it was small and filled with cream cheese, jalapeños, and Frito chips. But after the first bite, it turned out to be surprisingly delicious! Every single topping complemented the others really well. After finishing the burger, I actually wished I had ordered two! The soda was interesting--it had a lavender-like flavor. I thought it was good, but the floral notes might be too strong for those who don't enjoy those kinds of tastes. Since this is their food truck location, the ambiance was quite loud, as the food court is shared with several other vendors. There were plenty of tables and chairs available, but because it was such a popular day, it was difficult for groups larger than five to find seating together. I do appreciate that there are other food vendors nearby, allowing you to mix and match what you want to eat or drink, thanks to all the available options in the area.
