    Was back in town this weekend to visit the family, so we hit up Hector's so I could get my fix. Regrettably, I am going to have to knock them down one star to four. To begin, the chips and salsa were still on point, but for not being very busy, the bus boy/waiter did not come around often enough to keep them full. Not poor service, but not the standards Hector's has accustomed me to. Normally, I get the fajitas, but wanting something different, I tried the seafood enchiladas. It's three enchiladas packed with crawfish and shrimp, covered in a white wine cream sauce, and white cheese. The description of the dish had my mouth watering, but honestly, it was a 3 star dish. IMO, it was way too heavy! The white wine cream sauce was delicious, but if you look at my picture, there also spots of orange. I can only assume this was butter or lard. If you're already covering the enchiladas with cheese and a cream sauce, you don't need to add a lot of butter/lard. The crawfish and shrimp also didn't taste fresh and were small, so I assume they were frozen. Again the sauce was good, and I see a lot of potential in the dish, but it needs to be just a bit lighter and have fresh ingredients. My parents also ordered enchildadas (chicken), and they appeared to be 3 stars as well. Might just have to stick to only getting fajitas here.

    I wanted to love it here, but could not. Had a burrito and enchiladas -- the beef tastes like dog food. (dont ask me how i know how dog food tastes). On the bright side the chips were good an the queso was delicious. Customer service is top of the line.

I went around lunch time and it was not too busy or crowded. Sat at the bar, which appeared clean and was very cozy. It was not loud, but also great for families as well. Good price for what is offered.

    If you're looking for Tex-Mex that delivers bold flavors, sizzling plates, and generous portions,…read morePappasito's Cantina in Humble is always a solid choice! The atmosphere is lively, vibrant, and full of energy. From the colorful décor to the aroma of sizzling fajitas coming from every direction, it feels like a true Tex-Mex experience. Whether you're celebrating with family, grabbing dinner with friends, or enjoying date night, the upbeat ambiance makes every visit feel fun. Everything tastes fresh, and the portions are huge, so come hungry because you'll definitely leave full--and most likely with leftovers. The sizzling chicken and steak fajitas are a must-order. There's just something about hearing that hot skillet hit the table that builds the anticipation before the first bite. They're tender, juicy, and packed with smoky flavor. Don't skip the quail--it's incredibly flavorful and one of my favorite dishes on the menu. The taquitos are perfectly crispy and make a great appetizer, while the chicken and shrimp tacos are always a great choice. If you enjoy a little heat, you have to try the Shrimp Diablo. It's spicy, rich, and full of flavor. No Tex-Mex meal is complete without the sides, and Pappasito's delivers. The rice is flavorful, and whether you choose the charro beans or the refried beans, you really can't go wrong. The food is consistently excellent, but the service can be hit or miss when they're busy. Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are their busiest times, and the restaurant can be an absolute madhouse. If you don't mind the lively crowd and a possible wait, it's worth it. For a more relaxed dining experience, visit during off-peak hours. Overall, Pappasito's Cantina in Humble keeps me coming back this place never disappoints. Bring your appetite--you'll leave happy.

During the pandemic the menu shrunk drastically they took many popular items off the menu and are no longer there. One of them was veggie enchiladas to name. I get the situation that was happening but the items taken off, some should've came back onto the menu. since my last couple of visits I spread my time to visit on certain occasions and I didn't feel the same way as I did years ago the chips were warm and felt like as they were not fresh. I like the jalapeño dip is the same flavor but I feel like the last couple of times that I've gone it was bit watery not sure who's making the batches of sauces but are watered down. Also, on my last visit, I heard overheard servers talking about other coworkers which is not cool if this issues in the restaurant, let it be between yourself on text email or outside of the restaurant not for customers to hear. Maybe it's just this location that is going downhill but I will not be back here. I sure hope this works out.

I had a job interview there and the interviewer was so rude I almost considered never giving this place my business again. When I met her she was late to the interview, had a McDonald's drink, she accused me of a criminal history because she had the wrong application (and didn't believe me when I told her I didn't have a criminal record), and told me my clothes were unprofessional. I came in wearing the same stuff the servers wear to a T . Then she acted like she was doing me a favor by scheduling me another interview, but told me she'd be "too tired for 11 am so let's do noon". When I showed up at noon the next day she wasn't even there. I know it's a weird complaint but again I almost am considering never giving my business to this place again if that's the standard the owners of this place are okay with. I'm pretty sure her name was Ashley. She had dark hair and glasses if I remember. Terrible lady
