    It was my first time dining in the cantina version of this restaurant chain and I was very pleased. The food was actually very good and service was superb. I wish I remembered the gentleman's name that helped us out. He was fabulous I would go to sit at his section... big white dude with a beard... maybe Adrian. He was great and super helpful with the menu. Great service really makes a difference. The margarita flights were delicious and We had a mixed grill which was peefectly portioned, we even took some home!!!Definitely a good to when in the area!

    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!

    Enchiladas and Shrimp Brochette
    Lisa J.

    To me Pappasitos Cantina has always delivered some of the best Tex Mex options in Htown, with consistently good food in multiple locations here. Tonight , I visited the one in Humble off of FM 1960, and once again it did not disappoint. I ordered a very good enchilada combination dish called the Coronado that came with shrimp brochette and enchilada, and a crispy beef taco, but I had them take off the taco and add me an extra enchilada, which they did with no problem. It came with rice and beans and I ordered a side of pico de gallo to go with it. It was piping hot , cheesy, and delicious. zero complaints. And my brother even let me try some of his quail, which I had never tried at any Pappas restaurant before and it too was very good. Super tender, smoky and welled seasoned. Now the reason for the 3 stars was the service. We had two servers and they were both very much in their own worlds.. Messed up my drink order out the gate, inattentive to whether or not we needed things, never once's asked how we were coming along with our meal, ( until the very end of both our meals and our dirty plates were still laying there in front of us) and never asked either one of us if we wanted another drink, and we were sitting at the bar! And these were bartenders!! Thus only the 3 stars

    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.

    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!

    Chicken flautas
    Aurelia A.

    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.

    Watermelon Margherita

    The wait staff is very attentive. The Watermelon Margherita was delicious! I had the Barria Tacos and Chips with Queso! Was delicious! The portions were enough for two. Great prices too! I will be back!

    Happy hour
    Tiffany M.

    Happy hour and Fajita Wednesdays are my go to. The bar is always live and the team is very attentive to your needs. I recommend them.

    Cheyenne was our waitress being a previous owner of three restaurants in California. I am so…read moreimpressed. I cannot exaggerate how good her customer service is sometimes when I go into restaurants, people do not want to explain the menu she pleasantly and happily explained every thing on the menu because this is my first time and she did it with care and kindness. I really appreciate this! If I had a restaurant again I would want Cheyenne working for me.!! she is a true asset to this restaurant. Thank you so much to our beautiful waitress! Now let's talk about the food. Again, being a previous three-time restaurant owner everything from the sauce the quality of the fish the pan seared fish, the fried fish, the fried shrimp, the calamari! The aïoli. The butter scampi the honey mustard sauces are top-tier. I've never had sauces that tasted so good in a very long time! The presentation of the plates is magnificent and exquisite. This restaurant deserves five stars hands-down everything we ordered My Son ordered salmon I ordered the trout and shrimp. My other son ordered fried catfish and shrimp. Everything we ordered was 10 out of 10 and I really truly appreciate spending my money here me and my family will be back.!! Also the fresh baked bread they give you when you come in with that delicious butter is delicious! I just wanna thank the owner of this establishment for having such an amazing place

    As far as buffet goes, especially Chinese/Asian this one is above average for sure. Very clean,…read morewith great table side service. Parking can be tough. Favorites that you don't see often but done very well here, frog legs, cold seafood salad, sashimi's, sushi and some cookie and cream mousse creation, chicken wings, Ramen and full hibachi. Impossible to leave hungry. Over 20 tables of abundant food. WAY OUT IN HUMBLE Y'all so took us over 60 minutes from Richmond. Will make the trip again.

    Take this review with a grain of salt because I'm not a buffet person…read more Went on a Friday around 11:30 am and they was a steady stream of customers. Parking is shared in the plaza and was smaller than expected. The restaurant is fairly large - wide and the buffet bar is pretty big. There are the standard buffet options fried rice, lo mein, beef and broccoli, orange chicken, chicken wings, dumplings, egg rolls, spring rolls, etc and a good assortment of seafood - shrimp, fish, clams, mussels, and more. The usual battered and fried stuff. And of course pizza. There is a separate section of sushi - rolls, nigiri, etc. There is also a few soups and a small salad and sauce bar. They had Chinese bbq buns, custard buns and the Chinese style sticky rice (wrapped in banana leaf). There are dessert options too like ice cream, fruit, pudding, cakes, and slushies. They also have a hibachi grill and what they called a hot pot (but was more like a bowl of noodle soup). The hibachi grill noodles were good. There aren't a lot of options but plenty of meats. The hot pot soup (spicy) seemed to use a Sichuan style chili which altered the taste of the soup a bit. Get regular and add your own spice. The staff were friendly and attentive. It's a very far drive for us because we are in the city so not somewhere we'd go often but not against trying it again.
