    Pappasito’s will always be a staple in our family.They never miss, the food is always on point and the service is consistently amazing. Valerie was our server and she went above and beyond, making our birthday celebration even better. The food? Per usual, chef’s kiss. And honestly… my blood type is Pappasito’s queso. Someone check my labs.

    Nathan is the most attentive server I have ever had the pleasure of being served by. When the kitchen told him no, he found a way to make it happen for me. Including procuring a fresh orange for me when I felt it would enhance my experience. I wish I could rate Nathan 100/5 stars. Nathan knows what it means to be personable and put the customer first. Nathan will never deny a guest, even the most ridiculous request.

    Loved the queso, chips and salsa. The salmon salad and combo exceeded expectations. Will be back! They gave us free quest since it was my first time there. I want to go back for dessert sometime because their sopapillas and other desserts sound amazing as well. For the price the food was well worth it.

    We had a party of 6 we ordered the family platter serves 3-5 and a smaller family platter that serves 2. So much food and it was really good. The one platter had lamb (which a few of my group never had) with chicken and shrimp and beef fajitas. The other platter was the carnitas which was also very good! Our waiter was excellent super friendly took the time to make sure our glasses were never empty. Over all the entire experience was great we had a good time!!
