We had this place on our foodie radar and enjoyed our first visit. The food and service were amazing. My wife and only remaining boss enjoyed the Pollo En Crema, slices of chicken breast marinated in a tasty blend of spices and creamy almond sauce and zucchini and rice. I thought hers was very good but mine was better, the Astros Special had a lot of goodies, one beef burrito topped with chile con carne, a poblano pepper filled with beef and topped chile con queso and one fajita and bean taquito topped with melty gooey provolone cheese. We'll be back.

Very good real Mexican food! Very casual, feels comfortable and familiar. The owner is so kind and attentive. It was empty besides 2 other tables when we went, but that was at 4pm on a Sunday. All together a great spot. We definitely will be back

Delicious upscale Mexican food with a thoughtfully curated menu. We sat in the climate controlled…read morepatio out front, and it was lovely. It truly felt like an extension of the restaurant. Service was remarkable and very friendly from the host to the cleaning staff. Food was delicious. I really appreciated the creative flavors that were inspired by authentic Mexican cuisine. Standouts were the guacamole and wagyu carne asada, but everything was fantastic. I loved the Clara cocktail and enjoyed learning about the process to create it. It is clear that there was care and attention behind each menu item. Also, the pace of the food being brought out was evenly paced, which I appreciate, and our server gave us just the right amount of attentiveness. We celebrated my husband's birthday here, and they sent out a tres leches with a candle on it. Very kind and very delicious dessert. Usually not a big fan of tres leches, but this one was not overwhelmingly soaked in condensed milk, and it has a very fresh tasting peach (seasonal) puree drizzled on top. We will most definitely return.

Went for Sunday brunch with a reservation and were seated almost immediately on the patio. It's…read moretemperature-controlled, which is a huge plus in Houston, and it's still super cute. We ordered the breakfast burrito and the duck carnitas. We added barbacoa to the burrito, and it was honestly the definition of comfort food. It was EXTREMELY greasy though, so I ended up eating it with a fork and knife. If I had been home alone... I probably would've just shoved the whole thing in my mouth. I couldn't not order the duck carnitas. It came on a sope, which is basically my definition of the perfect Mexican brunch. It was really yummy, and I especially loved the salsa that came with it. My only real critique is that the portions felt a little on the smaller side. Either bump them up a bit or add a small side, because I definitely could've eaten a little more.

He anticipates what we need before we even have to ask, keeps everything running smoothly, and somehow manages to make it seem effortless. What really sets Ethan apart is his positive attitude and genuine connection with guests. He remembers details, offers great recommendations, and brings a level of enthusiasm that makes the entire experience fun! It's no exaggeration to say he's one of the main reasons we visit nearly every week. If you're looking for great service and consistently great food, we highly recommend both Ethan and Little Pappasito's Cantina.

Ordered queso, guacamole and fajitas with flour and corn tortillas, quesadillas and a side of grilled veggies. Fairly straightforward for a Mexican restaurant. So, then we waited and waited and waited. Eventually got a few glasses of water, some plates and some silverware. Not enough for the entire party. I guess they were washing the plates and cutlery. The chips and salsa and queso came out with the guacamole. Still waiting for plates for a few in our group. Don't worry they told us. We will bring out more plates and silverware with the fajitas. Then the quesadillas and fajitas came out with the beans and rice, but no tortillas. No flour tortillas. No corn tortillas. And no extra plates. Still washing dishes?? So we kept waiting as we ate in shifts. Like being on call. But we were just a large family seated together at a round table. Eventually, they brought us more silverware so we weren't eating with spoons and they brought out large plates. Like oversized entree plates for our fajitas. We ordered fajitas to go, but there was so much food on the table that we asked for to go boxes. Once. Twice. Three times. Went to the hostess and even to the manager. Still they refused to bring me boxes to take the food to go. My family got impatient, so we finally left. So much food waste. Would have been good for lunch the next day. We LOVE the Original Pappasito's on Richmond and Hillcroft. There is a difference. Worth it to drive not to deal with this lack of customer service. So surprised.

It's a neighborhood staple and has been my family's go to spot when we're in the Meyerland area since 1989! I love the service model of these Tex Mex places, every body always asks if you need something not just the waiter. This go round I had the shrimp enchiladas with charro beans and an Ultimate Margarita. My wife had the #6 Combo with cheese enchiladas, puffy queso, and crispy taco. Shrimp Enchiladas are my usual order and it was great as always. The shrimp were crisp and fresh not rubbery or overcooked and the cream sauce and melted cheese on top was rich and flavorful. The Ultimate Margarita was amazing, not too tequila forward and didn't taste like premade mix. My wife loved the puffy queso and cheese enchiladas, I ate her taco and finished off the rest of her plate too. My final note, visit these old school tex mex places while you can because one day they'll be gone, or worse open a trendy rebrand. Then all that's left will be huge corporate chains like Gringo's.

This place reminded me of a hometown Mexican restaurant with quality food and drinks at great…read moreprices. We visited for a quick drink and bite and it didn't disappoint. We ordered nachos and margaritas which were really good. The service and the restaurant were unremarkable but satisfactory. I would definitely visit again.

Ever since Don Pepe moved to Stella Link Rd, It feels like a completely different experience than…read moreits former digs. (#1) The good news is that the venue is updated, it's far more spacious with outdoor seating, service is prompt and courteous, and more importantly, the food is still excellent. In the space that was the ultra divey, former burger spot (Lee's Burger & Mo), they've transformed the space brilliantly. There was a pathway at one point for a drive-thru, but I don't think this was retained. Instead there's more parking space, which in a place like Houston is already a luxury in itself. In the past they were known primarily for their tamales, breakfast tacos, and enchiladas, but the menu has since expanded to include more platter-based items such as carne asada and grilled fish. Naturally the prices have also increased, but has remained fairly affordable and the accept credit cards. Ordering in Spanish is always preferred, but much of the staff also speaks English. I still dream of their breakfast plates and despite the change I've still never seen it so busy that I couldn't find a place to sit. This still remains one of the most slept on places in this part of town. __________ (#1) Should probably be under a different Yelp listing as well.

I am so fortunate to live near Don Pepe. I just returned from Mexico City and having withdrawal from the lack of Mexican food in my kitchen. Don Pepe to the rescue!!! In their new location just around the corner, the menu is much more expansive and I'm on a journey to work my way through that menu. This is not TexMex if that's what you're looking for. This is authentic Mexican food like I enjoyed in Mexico City. The owner who is always present and most often working the counter for orders, is so nice and accommodating. I am a vegetarian and he, without fail, accommodates my request for no meat in any dish. I am addicted to Don Pepe breakfast tacos. Little did I know, there is so much more. I arrived home from Mexico City Tuesday evening. Wednesday I needed my Mexican food fix, so I went straight to Don Pepe for lunch. I had the avocado enchiladas. Outstanding! After eating healthily between Wednesday and today, I needed yet another Don Pepe meal. This time I had the papas con rajas with fresh corn tortillas. AMAZING! I'm not sure I can ever order anything else here. I was a little worried the charm of the previous location would be lost when they relocated. Nope! Charming as ever and stylishly decorated with much of the artwork from the previous location. Wish me luck staying away from Don Pepe! Oh and most importantly, they have quite an array of Mexican candy at the counter where you order! That was a very pleasant surprise and yeah, I bought a piece of candy to take home for dessert.
