    This was our first time dining at Pappasito’s…I totally understand the hype!!! The food was sooooo good and the servings were huge! The staff was some of the best we’ve ever had, super attentive, cups were always full, genuinely acted like they cared about their job. We had 2 dishes that had carne asada on them and it was unbelievably tender. Everything was super fresh.
