In Short
Brace yourself for the noise, circus-like atmosphere and, during peak times, a long wait for a table. None of which has discouraged diners who have made this chain popular in Houston. Who can fault sizzling platters the size of manhole covers, great value and seemingly indefatigable service? Tortilla soup, Pappasito's famous fajitas and shrimp diablo are all worth a try. If strolling mariachis who sing "La Bamba" every five minutes get tiresome, escape to the pleasant patio.

Good food, but there can be a wait

by Anonymous

The food is good here. Fresh and tasty authentic Mexican food, but I have to say that there could be a long wait around lunch time. The buffet is good also. I like that the food is always hot and freshly made. I could highly recommend this restaurant, but you could wait a while.

The food here is very good and freshly made, also are there fresh waters. They have a good service and are always with a smile on there faces. They also have a good buffet everyday, it's never the same the food on the buffet but it's always good what they have there and on sundays they have the brunch where you can get alot of food.
