In Short
Since the first Pappasito's opened up in Houston, sightings of the restaurant have surged. Locations are airplane hangar-sized and decorated like border-town cantinas. Brace yourself for the noise, circus-like atmosphere… Read Full Editorial

My Review by angelab1085318536 via Citysearch on 9/4/2015

I have visited this restaurant only a handful of times but have been disappointed every time. They have great food but the service is poor. Drinks and chips always take too long and the food timing is off. You get your appetizer and the…

Pappasito's Cantina by grandsons2 via Citysearch on 12/28/2011

Great Margaritas, the best fajitas both beef and chicken. This is a great place to meet your friends after work or on special occasions. I like to celebrate my birthday at Pappasito's in San Antonio, Texas. The waiters are so friendly…

This place is bumpin'! by Chucklehead11 via Citysearch on 11/18/2011

I had no idea how popular this place was until I visited. The place is huge and it was jammed pack on a Friday night. We bellied up and had a great margarita at the bar while we waited for our table. The fajitas we're really good. …

Great Experience by Im honest about food R U via Citysearch on 7/1/2011

Clean, very good food, friendly, good feel...

via mexico food! by Anothertraveler via Citysearch on 6/27/2011

i still like this place, it has been better but its nice to fall back on. I like fajitas but my palate has expanded. San Antonio is a treasure for food so its easy to nitpick. I will stick with pappasito's until i have a bad experience.

Horrible by Alr0987 via Citysearch on 2/18/2011

this used to be one of my favorite restaurants, I don't know what happened. This last trip put a nail in the coffin for me. I was served grossly undercooked shrimp wrapped in grossly undercooked bacon and unfortunately didn't realize it…

Great Tex-Mex by RedElephant via Citysearch on 8/3/2010

For all those complaining about the price and quality...I suggest going down to Mexico if you want good cheap mexican food. This is great food for Tex-Mex and people in SA are spoiled with cheap-cheap mexican food and atomosphere. THIS IS…

Food sucks and too expensive by m210 via Citysearch on 1/19/2010

You are paying too much for food that isnt eve good. I went with my parents none of us liked our food we payed and left.

Pricy and not great food by ajayroam via Citysearch on 1/18/2010

This place is expensive and food is not that great.

good place by pooja via Citysearch on 1/11/2010

Sometimes have to wait during lunch time to get seated.

Pappasito's Cantina has remarkable fajitas by Neal R via Insider Pages on 7/27/2009

I'm Texas born and bred and raised near San Antonio. Tex-Mex is my favorite food and always has been. The Fajitas here are remarkable. They use skirt steak, as is tradtional, but use a special tenderizing process that makes it not only…

Father's Day Failure by Wm. B via Insider Pages on 6/23/2009

Father's Day Failure. For the past six or seven years, my family and I am sure a very substantial number of families have made Pappasito's their Father's Day meal choice. I know that my family and likely all of the other families have…

If you aren't in a hurry and don't care about the service or the food, this is your restaurant. by Tward42 via Citysearch on 5/3/2008

We arrived at 6:00 Sat evening. Very busy. We are told 45 minute wait. It was obvious from the start that this was not to be the case. After an 1 1/2 hour we asked about the status of our table. We were told 3 more people in front us.…

Pappasitos by T. W via Insider Pages on 2/25/2008

Pappasitos is always a favorite - relaxed casual atmosphere - I love their enchiladas - the best anywhere. They also have great fajitas. Never had bad food here.

Good Beef Fajitas by vq13 via Citysearch on 10/30/2007

I have to say, I am very picky with beef fajitas. These are just really, really good. They are not chewy or tough, they are tender and just great. Everytime I go there I always get good service and food. I can honestly say I have never…

Great fajitas by buffbabes via Citysearch on 1/12/2007

The beef fajitas are great. the charro beans are good too. The rice is average. If you get the large fajitas it is a good dinner for two with leftovers. I also had my rehearsal dinner here for my wedding and the food came out when they…

Cold Beer, Great Shrimp Brochette & Tortillas and Sopapillas by rver via Citysearch on 9/2/2006

Friday dinner hour but excellent service regardless of the large crowd. Yes, portions are large and very tasty. We had a combo (enchiladas, taco, tamale) and fajitas + shrimp (stuffed with cheese, jalapenos and wrapped in bacon) and all…

Excellent Food by Dawn H via Insider Pages on 12/30/2005

While Pappasitos is not truly Mexican, it is one of the best Tex-Mex restaurants you will ever eat at. The fajitas are to die for. They are a little more expensive then other restaurants but you get a ton of food. My only complaint is…

Care, quality & killer food = value by ceslad via Citysearch on 11/21/2005

Some say it's not authentic and overpriced. I say, right on the first but dead wrong on the second! First of all, I don't think they're trying to be authentic Mexican - IT'S TEXMEX! Second, have you priced other food lately? I go here…

Tourist Mexican Food and priced accordingly. Only visit when someone else is choosing and buying.
