    This is Abrianna, Julia and Romeo. Abby had gone home by the time I took this picture.

    I sat at the bar because they were very busy. Typically, I do not like to sit at the bar because you never know what kind of service you will receive. Well today, I was very happily surprised. The team consisted of Romeo, Julia, Abby, and Abrianna. They worked as a team and my glass was never empty, my area was always clean and they always had a warm smile and a kind greeting. They were amazing. I ordered the combo that had a taco, tamale, and enchiladas. The taco and tamale were OK but the enchiladas were awesome. If you're near humble Texas and you're looking for some good Tex-Mex, Papasito's will answer your hunger call. The service was definitely five stars the food rates four stars.

    Delicious Tex-Mex!

    Thank you for a great lunch date! My husband and I visited this Saturday, and it was such a nice experience. Although it was busy when we arrived, we were seated within five minutes, which was impressive. The food was pretty tasty. I ordered the shrimp tacos, and my husband had the beef and chicken enchiladas, we both really enjoyed our meals. The service was good as well, which made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back!

    I love the specials but usually stick to my regulars.

    I called to schedule our lunch gathering for coworkers. They were very accommodating for our party of 16. It was during the week and first thing in the morning. Kandra and Jonathan served us and did a wonderful job. I ordered chipotle shrimp, with double rice. Jonathan brought me a roasted jalapeño pepper which really helped kick up the flavor of the meal. I also got their mango and peach flavored tea. You have to ask for it and they will combine flavors. We ordered guacamole but I don't like the pepitas that they add. I always forget to exclude that. I love the chips that come with the guacamole but their other chips are delicious too. The queso with beef was a big hit. I had to force myself to stop so I would eat my meal. We were in and out in an hour and a half. I love the fact they seated us in the corner and out of the way of any crowds. The place was not busy yet and that was a plus.

    Fajitas
    Nicki M.

    Tex Mex is basically a food group when in Houston area and Pappasito's is definitely worth a visit. The service is good and prompt. The vibe is always chill and laid back. The queso is delicious and fajitas are tender. If you like your beef a bit more done, be sure to request as it typically is served medium rare. I really love that the salsa is served warm- it's next level over typical cold salsa!

    Came here for a friend's birthday and had a great time. Service was really nice and everything came out fast. I probably ate two baskets of chips myself and I didn't need any of the salsa or quac (which was great). My margarita was terrific and my shrimp quesadilla was gigantic! It really could have fed two people. The parking lot was completely full so we parked at the credit union next door (it was late on a Friday night so they were closed) so if you can't find a space, check there. This is a very popular location so make reservations if you can.

    This place is always packed and most of the time there is a waiting. However this time we were seated immediately despite alot of parties and graduations our service went well and the food came out fairly quick. The ambiance is casual nothing fancy however if your looking for a place to host a group this place definitely accommodates. The only downside I would say is that they are a little pricey. However this was our second time and we enjoyed it.

    Fajita Wednesday Special
    Daniella L.

    Truly the best pappasitos i've ever been to! Our server Desiree went above and beyond and was extremely attentive. From the moment we walked in we were immediately seated and taken care of. The entire team was so sweet throughout our visit. The whole atmosphere is great from the get go. Our food came out quickly and was not only completely filling, but delicious. The meat is always so flavorful and tender, and cooked to perfection! The floor manager Jade also came out to check on us and our experience. She helped me with getting exactly what we wanted when she truly did not have to! I was beyond happy and thankful for the service. Jade and Desiree you really made my day with this visit! It meant so much to me and thank you for your impeccable service! Wednesdays are usually our favorite time to visit for the amazing Fajitas, but now it's a must!

    Except for the fact that it is over priced, this place is great. We have been there multiple times and the food is very good.

    This is damn good crab! Damn good crab! Smash down the king crab twice in 2 days. Both times go…read morewith all the seasonings light on the spice. Talk about full flavor! The king was fantastic in that seasoning just made it blow up with flavor. For, as much as you spend on the crab, you shouldn't have to buy more potatoes and corn, but it is what it is. Hard to get a 5, but this is a great place to get your crab on!

    If I would have rated this place my first time here two years ago, it would have barely received…read moretwo stars. This time was a completely different experience. As we walked in, we were immediately greeted by Eric and seated. He sat us in a private cozy nook but we asked to move to the booths with tv viewing access. Eric took the time to explain the menu and offered his suggestions. He greeted and checked on everyone. As he spoke to people, he would thank them for coming back and converse as if he was speaking to old friends. The customer service was superb. My husband ordered a michelada with Michelob Ultra. He said it was a few degrees shy of having ice in it, who doesn't love a cold beer! For dinner we ordered the gumbo with sausage, red beans and rice, and the twin lobster rolls. The gumbo had a dark roux. It was decent but the spice level was a bit much for me. After about four bites, my husband took over. He enjoyed it. Next was the red beans and rice with sausage. The flavor was good. My only complaint was the sausage pieces were too big for one bite. Lastly was the twin lobster rolls with Cajun fries. The fries were crispy and I'd compare them to Charlie's. The roll had generous portions of delicious lobster. We chose a hot roll but they do serve it cold if you prefer. The basket is served with a 2 oz helping of melted butter for you to drizzle on your rolls. The flat top rolls were buttery, soft, and grilled to perfection. Overall, we enjoyed them but they were missing just a touch of something, maybe a spice, I can't pinpoint it. I would definitely get them again though! The food was all hot and fresh. I overheard Eric telling another customer they don't have heat lamps and everything is brought out as soon as it comes off the stove. The location is in the center of booming shopping centers. This is a great lunch or dinner spot that welcomes casual family friendly dining. I'm glad we returned, we will be back.
