Pappasito's Chicken Tortilla soup is one of the best in town - tons of squash, carrots, onions, grilled chicken breast and topped with avocado. Delicioso!

More Tex Less Mex Makes For A Great Meal. It does not bother me at all that their beans and rice might be canned. Texans care about meat and queso when it comes to mexican food and pappasitos is one of the best at making both. Their beef fajita nachos and tortilla soup are the best ive had in Houston.

Mexican???. This has to be the worst mexican food, if you can call it that, I have ever had. Go take some lessons on how to cook Mexican food from someone in the Rio Grande Valley. Stick to your fish restaurants.

Cynderilla. This chain should not be in the MEXICAN category. Let's try Tex-Mex. I can't say ANY of their food is good, well maybe the chips and salsa. And that is it. THe prices are outrageous and the service always stinks.

edible ambrosia. Pappasito's is my place to go when ravenous and with good friends. The aromas and ambience guarantee a great meal, and have never been disappointed. Huge servings, great service and without question the best mexican food in the city - what more can you ask? The beef fajitas are superior and all food is really fresh. Probably my favorite place in town.

Not the Border....but the best to order. This mexican restaurant has the best hot sauce in the world. The fajitas and grilled shrimp will make you want to slap your mother. I have eaten here for years and never to this day have I been disappointed in the food, service, friendliness & etc.

I live 150 miles from this restaurant and many times have driven 2 hours just to eat there.

Best Hot Sauce. They have the best chips and salsa around. Also their Pappasitos Mixed Grill (beef, chicken, and shrimp) is to die for. I have not had a bad one yet!! Only complainant is that it is a little too noisy!
