Papa's Mexican Cafe

A colleague and I were passing through and both really really loving Mexican cuisine decided on Papa’s. The salsa was delivered in the tiniest condiments containers- ok, strange but ok. Chips were not stale- so ok. The salsa was red- thats as far as I go with calling this salsa. A can of Rotel would have been way better. Young kids would have liked this, I guess, very insipid. We each ordered Fajita Chicken Chimichangas, rice and beans came on the platter as well. The chicken had zero seasoning- couldn’t see or taste any salt, pepper, or any seasoning mix at all, it was just boiled chicken. It even had the just boiled chicken taste- IYKYK. The chimichangas were not fried in the least- they were just rolled up tortillas, boiled chicken with no seasoning mix, no onions, no peppers, no flavo

I can not recommend Papa's enough, they truly are the most amazing place to eat! The staff is absolutely amazing and the food well that is just top notch everytime. The environment is like one big family coming together to enjoy dinner. Nice environment for all occasions. I absolutely love this place and all the wonderful staff!!

12/21/22: Back again to have a wonderful meal. I had the delicious burrito with fajita meat and sour cream on top. Hearty meal. Excellent service as well by Sara. Highly recommend this place. 12/2020: My cheese burrito was perfect. The waiting staff is so kind and with multiple take checks. Worth a stop for any Mexican/American food lover!

Everytime we eat here, both mom and me feel sick later. Service is the slowest service, so if you're in a hurry, or don't want to wait over 30 minutes for your food, then go elsewhere. There was not a wait for a table, just for our drinks and food. I hadn't been there in quite a while, so my husband, mom and I decided to give it another try. Same problems occurred. Extremely slow service (and there wasn't even very many people there, so it wasn't busy. There was no reason for such slow service.) And of course, later that evening mom and I both felt sick to our stomach. I won't go back to Pappas.
