Papitos Mexican Grill

I’d give it no stars if I could. Worst service I’ve seen in a long time. How bad, you ask? I arrived at ~3pm and left at a quarter til 6. There were only 3 tables seated in the restaurant and the other two walked out. Waitress was on some sort of drugs. «MManagement tried to give a discount for out troubles which amounted to a 5% off discount and an added 18% gratuity for a table of 5. Thanks for the help. Avoid it at all costs.

Food and prices were good. Sat at the bar and had good service. Will go back to try more things on menu. Also will try the outside deck if weather permits.

Papitos is a pretty good restaurant. I really enjoyed the sangrias and enjoyed the low price even more! The chips and salsa are all right, but the entrees here can be really great. This is a perfect place to meet your friends after a long day of work. Go eat here!

Totally disappointed. We have eaten here before and loved it. Our waiter could not answer our questions and quickly told us this was his 4^th day. Our food came out cold and at different times. We are not going back.

My friend girl and I went here for lunch… we enjoyed it… I had the tilapia and rice and she had the beef chimichanga. everything was good..

This meal was incredibly disappointing. The atmosphere was adequate. Service was very slow. They didn’t take our drink order for ten minutes.
The food was cold. We ordered queso and the Papito’s dip. Both were cold. The food we ordered came quickly but it was cold. Makes me wonder if their microwave is working. The food was bland; had very little seasoning. I had the enchiladas supremas and it was sad. My wife ordered the tacquitos. They were burned and the chicken inside was burned also.
We won’t go back there.
Overall a poor meal experience.

From Houston… the heart of tex-​mex… Really good salsa, very fresh! Ordered the lunch chicken fajitas. Pretty good. Hefty portion, good veggies, but the chicken could be thicker slices instead of thin strips. But good flavor. The tortillas are right out of the plastic bag. Their rice and retried beans are ok.
Overall as good as any run of the mil tex mex joint back in Texas. So pretty good for Jackson.

Great food and fun for the family!!! There food is freshly cooked with a tex mex flavor. Our waiter was very attentive to our table. And we have never had a bad experience! You have to go. Order the chimichanga they have beef chicken or steak I believe.

This is probably one of the worse places I’ve been in awhile. Waiters were not bi-​lingual; orders were all wrong and just an all around horrible experience!

The food was decent. It was far from the best, yet not the worst. I ordered the shrimp tacos and there were about 4 tiny shrimp in each taco! The ambiance is where it makes up. I would recommend coming here if you are more focused on having a good time with friends than eating a delicious meal.

I received the worst service I have every received in my life this past Sunday. April 12, 2015 around 3:00pm. Here’s what happened: After being seated on the inside, it took our waitress 30 minutes to come to the table. Her attitude was very horrible. If she didn’t want to do her job, she should have stayed at home or seek other employment. We asked her could we order our food at the same time as I drinks (to make the wait shorter). She insisted on getting our drink orders first. That was another 30 minute wait. We ordered the 2 for 1 margaritas and waters. (I asked for water 5 times over the course of our time in that establishment and never got it). She brought out our drinks and finally took our food orders (at this point we’d been in this place for an hour and still no food). After another 45 minutes, we see tables that were seated after us receiving their food and we still hadn’t received ours. She finally brings out a full tray of plates… only 2 plates came to our table and the rest went to other tables. When one of us asked what seemed to be the problem and why other tables that were just seated receiving their food before ours, she leaves and comes back with a plate and literally slings the plate at her. No exaggeration. What if that plate had been hot? We eventually get the manager to vent our frustration, and he has a horrible attitude as well. After he grabs the 2 plates off the table that we did get, he tells us that we can leave after we pay for half of those 2 for 1 drinks. We wait again another 30 minutes for the receipt to pay that we never got. Finally, we each took out $ 3 and took it to the hostess and walked out. The reason we did that was so that they couldn’t call the police for us leaving without paying. They had no intentions of printing us out a receipt anyway. The only reason that I am giving this establishment 1 Star is because there isn’t an option for a negative rating. I will NEVER dine at this establishment ever again.

I’ve been to place several times now and the food is always good. The waiters and waitresses always have a smile one their face. Great restaurant to enjoy a good Mexican meal.

Overall good place. Basic TeX Mex. I will say the guacamole was good. Most of the servers are Spanish speaking and either speak softly or little English. They do have 2for1 margaritas in a variety of flavors. The salsa was OK, nothing out of the ordinary. Service was good, speedy. Atmosphere of typical TeX Mex. Nothing bad to say.

A tex mex place with mediocre to average food. The ambience is nice although it can get a little too noisy. Ordered the guacamole which didn’t really taste like it was freshly made. At the same cost, I could have double the guacamole made table side at Babalu. For my entrée, I got the chicken fajita. The chicken was a little too dry and wasn’t the best. I don’t think I will repeat.

I was definitely skeptical about coming to this restaurant. However, once I got my food, I was pretty content. I ordered the enchiladas. They were pretty good! The flavor was cheesy and the chicken inside taste good. The salsa and chips were pretty good as well! There’s nothing like fresh salsa and warm chips

Service was perfect and fast, and the fajitas were wonderful. The drinks are also interesting. Came because it was the only thing open late, and was surprised at the treat!

There must have been a ½ chicken in the tortilla soup, it was very filling. The tomato-​ey salsa grew on me. The large homemade chips forced double-​dipping. My pet peeve — lot’s of ‘half price magaritas’ signs, with no prices on the menu — turns out not to really be a good deal. I got the fajitas, they didn’t come with enough tortillas, but my server did offer more. Service was average.

Solid Mexican place. Good food, good margaritas.
2-​for-​1 margaritas at the bar, seemingly every day all day.
Manager, Alberto, will fix any problem.
Warning — Thursday nights are Karoke nights — packed up full.

Excellent service and great food. The kids twisted my arm to get cheesecake to share-​wow! It’s a cinnamon pastry with cheesecake in the middle served with ice cream. Yum!

I guess I should not have expected to much and the server was great. But, over all, the food just did not deliver.
It has a great looking patio and I can imagine that when it is under 100 degrees, it would be a fun place to hang out and party.
I hate to give negative reviews when there is some effort, but the food was bland.
My suggestion is to fly in a chef from Los Angeles or San Diego and whip up some real Mexican food. The interior is great and the service is great, but you gotta have good food to get me back.
