    Great spot to hang out and have a beer waiting for your flight. Foods not bad for TexMex. This might be my 3rd time here and would recommend swinging by to kill some time and have a decent meal. Breakfast is good as well

    Perfectly rushed, overpriced airport food. Waiter was clearly keen for us to leave despite the place being half empty at noon. Wrapped up with a nice "can I offer you a water bottle on your way out" when we were still eating 👍

    The breakfast food was pretty good! The service was very quick! I had the Huevos Rancheros and my husband has the Pappaaitos breakfast. The portions were really big and we couldn't finish our food!

    My wife and I were delayed for almost 3 hours and decided to grab a bite at a familiar spot, we were sat down almost immediately when our server James came over to our table with our menus, their menu is similar but different from other pappasitos we have eaten at before but he guided us through the menu and recommended us some of his favorites, we weren't in the best mood but we could tell he was passionate about what he does and was the first person in the entire airport that took his time with us and actually made us feel like we weren't just another customer or a bother, I got a dos equis and my wife ordered a blood margarita, another server brought our drinks but James came and made sure they were to our liking. I got the recommended Baja fish tacos and my wife got the chicken burrito, both were amazing and after a couple drinks and getting our stomachs fed it completely changed our otherwise unfortunate day, if you want great food and great service this is the place to go, we don't travel much but anytime we are in dfw we will visit pappasitos again.

    I have been here 2 times now on layovers and it’s some of the best Mexican food I have ever had! I now purposely choose DFW to stop over for this restaurant. The service is fast, the food is flavorful, crisp and pippin hot! I once had a 40 minute layover and had my food and drink in 15 minutes! Thank you for the amazing service and I’ll be back my next trip to DFW
