Pappasito's Cantina Reviews

We had a few hours to spare before our flight and wanted to eat at a restaurant with mixed drinks. Pappasitos was good choice. The margaritas were good and the food was good as well. Our waitress was very friendly

First the salsa and chips its complimentary with a meal great salsa fresh warm nachos. Super huge plate and great price I had beef enchilada. Sorry the meal didn't made it intact jeje

While waiting for our flight home, at DFW, saw Pappasito’s Cantina. Seated quickly and looked over the menu. Found some good adult drinks, margarita and Bloody Mary. Lots of good sounding food and settled on a burger with fries. Our order was brought out quickly. That was one of the best burgers 🍔 we have found anywhere. Fries were great also. If we’re back at DFW will be heading back for another burger. For airport food this is a must stop and have a burger.

A great place for a really good Tex Mex meal while at DFW. Actually quite a surprise that it is so much better than neighborhood Mexican. Tamales especially good.

We missed our connection at DFW so we had two hours to find something to eat. We sat down at Pappasito's in Terminal A and shared one order of chicken quesadillas and two beers. We were very pleasantly surprised by the size of our order as well as complimentary chips and salsa. Oftentimes you get very slim quesadillas, but not here. It was plenty for us to share. The service provided by Pete was excellent. I highly recommend stopping here if you have time to spare in DFW.

Wife arrived by wheelchair but we were both able to walk to chatting hostesses for a table. They indicated that it was a half hour wait for a table, but could sit at the bar on a barstool. No way could that be done. We just walked in. Their were three empty regular tables that hadn't been bussed, and the one we sat at that was clean and ready to go. Our waiter Jeffery, came right over to great us and brought menus. Our drink order was taken and he promptly brought natchos and salsa. Orders were taken and the food was delicious. Except for the seating, we were very pleased.

We went with the nachos with chicken , very good. Where I screwed up was not ordering the cheese enchiladas. The guy next to us ordered it and it looked like heaven. Only in Tex Mex restaurants do the use chili as a topping, Every where else they slop red sauce on the meal. I’ll be back

Very tasty Mexican and that too without cheese. Had the burrito and did enjoy it. The takeaway was prompt (less than 5 mins) and I liked the service, Do try if you are at this terminal.

Terminal A at DFW has upped their game at last with options like Pappasito's.. Tripping over the pathetic Subway really should not be a thing, however. Though the fare was tasty, the service was sorely lacking and quite beyond indifferent. Over $60 for enchiladas and weak drinks? Really?

We knew going in that Pappasito's is an ersatz version of a Mexican restaurant so our expectations were not great to begin with. However, we thought it would be fine for a cold beer and something to eat. The beer was warm and the service was appallingly indifferent. It the waiter could have thrown the plates down on the table, he would have. He had nothing against us but it was clear he didn't want to be there. Pretty much the wrong guy to be working in that business, and totally out of character for the service we typically get in TX or in the South. The food was just OK but what we expected from a Pappa's restaurant.

At the airport and the only restaurant actually open after 8. Of course it’s pricey, but it was delicious. The complimentary chips and salsa were very good. Chips were light and warm. We got the enchiladas and quesadillas and a couple of drinks and were stuffed! The wait staff was friendly and attentive. I’ll definitely come back when I’m at this airport.

By far the worst food I’ve had for a long time. Fish tacos are atrocious, margaritas are a joke and you have to ask for chips and salsa. Paid almost $80 for tacos, burrito, and a margarita.

We enjoyed our meal. The chips and salsa at the beginning are great. The chicken quesadilla was fine (large portions) and the tortilla soup with avocado and chicken was very tasty.

Waiting for our flight we stopped in for a quick bite and shared the batter fried fish tacos. Do yourself a favor and don’t order this. Aside from the heavy handed batter they tasted rancid as if the oil had been overused. The only redeeming factor was our server who was very attentive.

The food and service are just fine at DFW's Pappasito's Cantina, but prices are high, even by airport standards. You can get very good value by ordering the "Pappasito's Pork Tamales" appetizer ($7.49), which is large enough to serve as an entrée. It’s a taste treat and the two tamales can even be shared as an inexpensive lunch for two. Ordering a beer quickly escalates the cost. My Modelo draft set me back $9.95 plus tax and tip (gulp!).

If you want a great airport food experience with great service and drinks, this is the place to go. Being in the airport isn't always fun but with yummy food and a good margarita it sure makes it better

We really enjoyed our lunch. The fish tacos and salmon & mango salad were excellent! Best bloody mary's we ever had. Service was quick and friendly.

The good: fast, friendly service...great tasting food. The bad: things are a bit overpriced. Nice sit down restaurant.

Stopped here for a quick lunch in between flights. Sat at the bar and Ri was our server. He made me a wonderful Bloody Mary. We got the Pappasito's Salad which was HUGE so two of us shared it. We added chicken to it which was very moist. The salad was full of flavor. We also got the pork tamales from the appetizers menu and they were very good, with very tender pork. Pricey as you might expect, but you're in an airport . . . . Would definitely go here again.

Ignore the bad reviews. Or maybe I just got lucky. I found this experience outstanding. The Cantina interior was a dark inviting respite from the busy terminal. I was greeted cheerfully and seated promptly in a comfortable booth. The enchilada plate that I ordered with Verde sauce was outstanding. I noticed the following details. The chicken was shredded and not cubed. The Mexican rice was perfectly split, fluffy and flavorful. The refried beans were absolutely outstanding and you cannot find refried beans that good east of the Mississippi river. Once plated, the kitchen must run the entire enchilada plate under a flash broiler to finish it off - the cheese on top was melted to a slight crust. The plated food came out very hot - almost sizzling. My iced tea was re-filled without my asking. Service was attentive.

Food is great and good portions. Wife and I ordered fajitas for 1 and split! More than enough for us. The chicken fajitas were very good. Margaritas were good too! Service was very fast!

We stopped here while passing thru DFW for a late afternoon lunch. The cheese enchilada dinner comes with two enchiladas but we asked for a light plate with only 1 enchilada each and they were happy to accommodate. The meal was with rice and beans. It was fresh and hot and was a very good tex mex meal and a really good cheese enchilada. Chips and salsa were also served and the salsa was a very good salsa possibly made with fire roasted tomatoes. The young lady who waited on us was very polite and helpful and the service was good. Also the price was reasonable for an airport meal. I will be keeping this place in mind the next time that I pass thru DFW.

I had an hour before my flight to catch a bite for lunch. Traveling solo on a business trip, I selected a seat at the bar. I was VERY PROMPTLY greeted by Pete and he immediately asked how much time I had so he knew how quickly I needed to be in and out. A very nice touch. After hearing I had an hour, he advised I had plenty of time. He asked how hungry I was and gave me several suggestions. It took me about 5 minutes to decide what I wanted. The menu is not huge, in fact, it's reasonably straight forward. I just did not know what I waned. They tout Fajitas as their specialty and I must say, the shrimp wrapped in bacon looked to die for when delivered on steaming hot plates to other patrons. After I arrived, 4 others came to the bar and ordered before me. They received their plates in under 10 minutes which was impressive. I was not so lucky. Somehow, something got mixed up and I found myself enjoying a reasonably priced ($10) Chardonnay and a small basket of chips, for much longer than I hoped. Pete, the waiter realized I had not been served after 25 minutes and went to the kitchen without bringing me into the drama. He returned advising a mix up and that my meal would be on the house. I declined another glass of wine fearing no time to enjoy it. Another 5 minutes and the worlds best cheese enchiladas' were delivered to my seat with Spanish rice (held the beans). I so wanted to enjoy but only had time to eat one of the two and down a glass a water. I received my check quickly at the same time a manager came by to apologize for the wait. I expected a comp meal when she apologized and said everything was on the house, but the check I received still had the wine on it. No time to complain, I paid for the wine and handed Pete $10 for a valiant attempt to save the day. It was just a few minutes too late. So, the food, or at least my enchiladas and chips were amazing. There dishes were ample in size and appeared to be delivered quickly. The restaurant is very clean and the bar staff hustle to get folks in and out (except me). Prices are very high in my opinion. The average plate is $18-26 which is quite a bit for lunch with a few more affordable options via an appetizer. Food is delivered as it should be and that is on a hot, heavy duty plate and it has all the right stuff to make your belly happy. I think my issue was an isolated one and I would go back when and if I want to spend $35 for an airport lunch and glass of wine. Prices are similar in DFW for all other sit-down options. Service at the bar great overall despite my mishap. The situation was handled extraordinarily well but I do think the full meal should have been comped. Did I say they had great cheese enchillada's?

Wow, great TexMex in Dallas/Ft. Worth airport! This bar/restaurant is a great place to get good food and it comes fast if you're rushing to a flight. They have good margarita's and service is fast and friendly. Worth a stop for some good Mexican food while traveling.

Passing by when I had another 1.5 hours before takeoff. Food smelled great so I ventured in. The young man that served me did a great job. Told me that the best and fastest dish was fajitas. So I went with the chicken fajitas. They were great and he was right it was quick! You could taste the freshness of ingredients. Chicken was still moist and flavorful. Veggies were cooked well. Topped it off with an excellent strawberry lemonade. Truly top shelf. May be a little pricey but hey it is an airport restaurant.

Nachos were delicious. The milkshakes were insane and what didn’t fit in glass the brought in the metal milkshake container. Great service. Terminal A.

Had eaten at Pappasito's in Houston and was thoroughly impressed, so I was thrilled to see this when we got off the plane at DFW. Limited menu, which is common at airport locations, but still a good selection. Tamales were awesome, also had a combo with tamale, chicken enchilada, and awesome (like best ever) steak taco. Even the sides, chips, and salsa are great. Oh and don't forget the prickly pear margarita (a little small for the price, but yummy nonetheless.) Plus great service! Almost makes me want to fly on American Airlines again just so I can go through DFW and eat here.

There are a few good choices in the terminal A area to eat. If you dine here. Choose the to go window. They have a more extensive menu than the service side. My service was really slow. I waited several minutes to get my menu and even longer to place the order. When it came time to pay I had to wait 10 minutes for a different server to get my bill. Not ideal when trying to get to a gate and board a plane.

I had a long connection time at DFW and pleased to find Pappasito's. All the Pappa restaurants are known for consistent quality. It had been a long week and a well crafted margarita was a pleasant start along with chips and salsa. I remembered having shimp brochette wrapped in bacon at Pappadeaux. I ordered a similar dish, but with Mexican seasoning and was delighted. The service was "ehh", not rude, just not very attentive. It is an unusual to have a good meal at the airport, but DFW has some excellent offerings.

We were surprised at the quality if the service and food here. Very good! Yeah... a person has to put up with airport prices....however, yhis is a really good spot!

We had the fish tacos and steak/chicken fajitas. They were very good for airport food. We were really surprised. If you need food and your in Gate C we recommend checking them out.

Worst food and service tonight. I had to get out of my chair three times to get them to come to our table: to get my tortillas for my fajitas, get silverware for the dessert and refill out water. They did not bust the table between appetizer, meal and dessert. Shrimp was raw. Ordered beef fajitas and got beef and chicken. Did not refill water and my 91 year-old dad had to drink our water when he chocked on his food. Wrong kind of beans delivered. Even though our waiter appeared to be running around, trying to attend tables, he couldn't do it alone. There were four workers in red shirts, standing around joking with each other at the tortilla machine. Others sitting around us complained too, not an isolated event.

Prices are kind of high for a Mexican restaurant. The salsa was good but our guacamole didn’t have a lot of flavor. The cheese dip is good and our fajitas were very tasty. Seated quickly even on a Saturday night and we were with a big group. They don’t take reservations but will put you on the wait list early if you call on your way.

Just outside of gate A28, get the chips and salsa. Very good. The chicken burrito is large and good. Sure beats fast food. Good service but noisy only as an airport may be.

Made the mistake of stopping here for dinner when transferring at DFW on my way back from Guadalajara, Mexico where I had been enjoying some terrific Mexican food during the previous week. The food at Pappasito's was tasty but pretty average and was very much in the fast-food category.

The burrito was really good!! The beef was very tender. The staff was extremely friendly and the service fantastic. It was so good I forgot to take a picture!

we got worst food poisoning from shrimp at papasitos, i only had one bite and am still on antibiotics 10 days later, health department in dallas should be fired omg bad

This airport location has a limited menu ... quick service and quality food ... tight spacing between tables but the staff does a good job trying to spread customers out as much as possible ... great alternative to other food service in the A Terminal

After being abroad for a week getting some good Mexican food was a welcome treat. As soon as we got off the plane we could smell the food and couldn't help but go in for a meal during our layover. The tacos, quesadilla and enchiladas were good. The bad was the cheese sauce and salsa. Both had way to much black pepper. The kids nacho was a flat corn tortilla with melted cheese. My son refused to eat it so it went to waste. Overall the meal was good and the waiter was very quick and polite.

We had a quick drink here as we had a short flight connection .Very friendly and helpful server ( Sean) who also offered us chips and salsa on the house with the drinks but we declined as body and mind not in ‘hungry’ mood due to time differences . However we saw the food arriving for other people and portions were huge and looked delicious . Will definitely eat at one of these in the future

We had an early flight and 3 hour layover at DFW. I have eaten at Pappadeux before and been impressed, so we decided to try the Cantina. Oh my. The egg-chalada platter is exquisite. You know if you wish for some more of the sides, they are doing it right. Whatever you get, make sure the breakfast potatoes are on the side. The quesadillas were quite good also, just a little more tame than the enchiladas. I will eat here or Pappadeux every time I’m in DFW airport.

My daughter keep telling us that she wanted tex-mex when we stopped over at Dallas Fort worth airport. To my surprise, we found Papasistos a short walk from our plane in Terminal C. We all had some type of fajitas which were made fresh, tasty and filling. Also, we chose to order and pay before we got our food as we had less than 1 hr. To spare, but they also offered waitress service. The only thing I.was disappointed in was they charged me $1.29 for a small amount of sour cream for my fajitaswhich I felt should be included. Otherwisa I know we will eat there again should we find ourselves in DFW airport!

I ate here 2 weeks ago while on a business trip. The food was okay, the service was okay, just nothing special. I am not sure I would eat at this Pappasito's again.

I had a quick quesadilla and chips with guacamole and I was pleasantly surprised. The guac was very fresh and so very good; chicken quesadilla was great too. It was late and I needed to get something to eat, so ate light. If I ever fly into DFW airport again, I intend to eat here; hopefully a full dinner. Again, the guac was great !

Stopped in for a quick app and drink. Good news, they have large margs that are pretty tasty. Bad news, don’t order the nachos, they were rather soggy. I mentioned it to my server and he was more than willing to get me another set. Manager even came out to apologize which was very kind. The second plate was better but still not the best nachos I’ve ever had. #GreatService #GoodDrinks #OkayFood

Food was just OK. Chips and salsa were good, it was different to get warm salsa, in the Northeast where I come from the salsa is usually served chilled or room temperature. Got beef enchiladas, although there was a lot of beef in the enchilada, it was not seasoned, and, I found a big bay leaf in one of them. Dining partner's meal was just OK as well, although his margarita was delivered in a big glass, he liked that :) Service was good, they understand that you are on a tight time schedule while waiting for a flight. If given the choice, I would not eat there again.

The atmosphere was inviting. The service was impeccable. Our waitress even asked our flight time. The food was.... spicy but tasteless. We both had the Laredo plate. Tamale....too spicy for me. Chicken enchilada... best of the three. Taco....too much cumin! (And not much other flavor except spice). Won't be back.

We ordered two of the large "reserva" margaritas, with tip it was $40. With the price and "reserva" in mind we were expecting fresh juice and a generous pour - what we received was cloyingly sweet, sugary mix, no fresh juice taste and barely detectable trace amounts of liquor. I'm glad we didn't have time to order food ! Very disappointing - typical chain / mall quality. Not recommended.

Delicious breakfast but huge! I could only eat half of it. They use fresh herbs on everything. Very nice and service is adequate. I would suggest it to friends.

This is in terminal A by gate 28. Menu is somewhat limited compared to an outside restaurant but still easy to find something good. We had the nachos and then split an entree. Everything was very good. Service is very fast so people can make their connections. Prices are much higher than at an outside restaurant but that is likely true of most of the restaurants in the airport.

Airport food generally falls in two classes: fast and mediocre and slow, expensive and mediocre. What an unexpected pleasure to find Pappasito’s was fast, moderately priced and very well prepared. I ordered the Pappasito salad with grilled chicken breast. The server inquired about my departure time and noted it on the order. In very short time the salad was delivered, the greens were fresh (that is always a challenge) big chunks of perfectly ripe avocado and the lime vinaigrette was tasty without tart. Such a lovely salad! Pappasito’s is busy and noisy, but the service was polite and friendly and it provides a well-above airport experience for a moderate price.

I arrived early for a connection at DFW Airport. I scoped out the restaurants on the A Concourse where my flight was scheduled to depart. I chose to go to Pappasito's. However I have a number of foods that I cannot eat due to a digestive condition. The waiter, Ben, was extremely helpful and involved the restaurant manager, Stephen, to assist me in my menu selection. I was also served by Ashley. Not only was the food outstanding but the service was above and beyond. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

In between flights I hit this place up. Grabbed some tacos, guacamole, and a coke. It was great!! Much better than I expected for airport food. Andres at the counter was really nice and did more than just “what do you want, gimme ur money” he was genuinely happy to be at work and it showed!! To the staff- the food rocked and you guys were all great!!! Thank you!!

Went to Dallas for a family wedding, and had the rehearsal dinner at this cool spot... the Mexican food was fantastic and the drinks hmmmmmm..... a bit pricey but was worth it... atmosphere was great

This restaurant chain consistently serves high quality food and hires good people. The Superior combo was very good. Skinny margarita excellent. Service from J was outstanding! Great airport choice.

Stopped in for fish tacos. 35 minutes later, still no meal. And no apology. And no explanation other than “it takes a while.” I finally just had to leave without a meal. Avoid this place as there are too many other good options at DFW airport.

Wonderful atmosphere and great food. We ordered so much food, and everything tasted awesome. We ordered way to much for 4 people. The portions are huge! Great variety of food including seafood. The service was great!

We stopped because we had a 2-hour layover. We split the Chix fajitas for one ($22.99) and got a beer on tap (large $9.95). Chips and salsa are free, so there was plenty of food for the 2 of us. The waiter gave us separate plates/shells since we were splitting. It was super loud inside this super-sized restaurant. We may be back if we have another layover.

It was very crowded the evening I chose to dine here. Food was ok. Drinks a disappointment! I ordered one of the speciality drinks. The waiter said it could be served frozen but after a long wait the drink was served on ice (which was filed to the top) not crushed as he said they could do. I was able to get four sips out of it! The waiter apologized but did nothing to correct it. It took a while to get our bill. Not sure if I would come back to this place.

I stopped by this restaurant for an adult beverage to help calm my nerves for my missed flight. Needless to say, it was just what I needed. I ordered the platinum margarita and it was everything. The quesadillas were delicious as well. Michael, my server, was extremely nice and provided great customer service.

Pretty delicious for the airport. I had the breakfast platter with jalapeño cheddar sausage, eggs, beans, potatoes and tortillas. Don’t get too excited about the scrambled eggs but the sausage and beans were great. Portions were good and the price was perfect.

Got $12 meal voucher from airline and spent it here. Had baja fish tacos and ice tea and even after $12 voucher, meal still came to almost $13 plus tip. Sigh. Food was fine and service was good. Grilled fish tacos were good - no complaints.

How refreshing to have good food at the airport. We had pecan pancakes and the Pappasito platter. Both were excellent. Cesar was our server. Very polite and courteous. Great service and food, clean too. Best food we had during 2 days of travel madness.

I came in here to have lunch. I waited on my meal, then inquired about my order. The guy preparing the food said that he was sorry and he would get my food to me soon. But, he continued to prepare other people’s food & was never making mine. These other guests had come in 15 to 20 minutes after I had ordered my meal & they were already eating their lunch. Since I was at DFW airport & didn’t have more time to wait, I spoke to the manager, who issued me a credit on my food order & didn’t seem to mind losing the business or seeing a guest leave hungry.

I opted for the beef burritos and they didn't disappoint. The side of salsa was a nice addition of flavor as well. Good spot for airport fare.

Had lunch here while waiting for flight. Shared an order of guacamole and tacos al carbon. Shocked when the bill came and they had charged us $5 for a glass of ice water and $15 for a Diet Coke!!!! Prices are outrageous here for what you receive!!!

Time to kill at DFW airport and I love Pappasito's from my residency in Houston area. Started with the Pappasito's Reserva Margarita and added an extra shot of tequila! Corazon Reposado barrel-aged tequila, with Grand Marnier and organic agave nectar, fresh lemon and lime juices, shaken table side and served on the rocks. Followed up with table side Guacamole. Fresh chunks of avocado, tomatoes, toasted jalapeños, and onion. Outstanding guacamole!!! Main course ordered the Baja fish tacos - corn tortillas filled with fresh tilapia and jalepeno cream sauce. Another Winner! Finished off with the Honemade Tres Leches dessert- a rich Mexican vanilla cake soaked in three milks, and topped with meringue. The meal was Outstanding! LOVE the food. Service was very slow and it wasn't even a busy time.

This was a nice treat to have at the Dallas airport. Nice ambiance and the menu was very appealing. There were two locations to choose from and the access was very good via the skytrain.

Had a layover here in Dallas and it was dinner time. I had the beef and chicken fajitas, my wife had the macho nachos. Service was fast and friendly. My wife said the nachos were fantastic.

My husband and i ate grabbed lunch at Pappasito's before our departing flight on Memorial Day weekend. We were very pleased with the service, the food and the very accommodating wait staff. I have certain food allergies and they made every effort to make sure that my dish was free of allergens. My grilled chicken salad was fresh and delicious – my husband was happy with his meal as well. And the tortilla chips were awesome and addicting!

This review is for the Terminal C location, which apparently is a much lesser fast food version of the terminal A restaurant. Still, I must admit, this was much better food than I expected for a fast-food type of restaurant. We had time to kill before a flight, but not quite enough for one of the full-service restaurants. So, stopped in Pappasito's Cantina. The process was a little confusing and there was no one there to help. Went to the counter to order and the person there said we needed to grab a table first, just leave some of our items or suitcase at the table then come order. Well, we were not about to leave something at a table unwatched in an airport. Isn’t that against the rules anyway. So, my wife went and sat at a table while I took care of ordering. But, what is a person traveling alone to do? After ordering, it took between 5 and 10 minutes for the food to come up, which is not bad. I tis not delivered, your name is called and you go to a counter over on one side. Again this leaves items unaccompanied if traveling alone. Food was good. Better than a typical fast food, but as expected less than a table service restaurant. Unfortunately, the prices are full-service restaurant level, so not a value at all. Also, no drink refills, which one would expect at fast food. Will not return as there are so many more affordable or quality level to match the price in the terminal. Rated just two stars due to the flow and drinks, food could rate an ok at level 3.

This is a great airport destination. The margaritas are excellent and they have a great selection of beer. Mexican food isn’t always pretty when it’s served, but the plates are - well pretty. Wish I had thought to take a picture. And the service is great.

I ordered through their take out window as the restaurant part was closed. They were super nice taking my order. I had a chicken quesadilla and it came with jalapenos, pico, sour cream and lettuce. It was the perfect crunchiness and the order came up really fast. I would absolutely eat here again.

Pappasito’s is a must anytime we are in Dallas. The food was delicious as always. The drinks put one of our girls halfway out 😆

Wanted something other than what is at home. Service was extremely quick. Server was polite and attentive. I really enjoyed the chili rubbed ribs, excellent flavor. The chips and salsa were very good. The alcoholic drinks are small and over-priced.

This is the best Tex-Mex food I have tasted. Friendly staff. Nice place with a wide menu with several plates to choose from.

A nice and very agreable tex-Méx restaurant in the departures terminal of the busy airport of Dallas.Meat was tender and juicy and service was quick and professional.Certanly a place to recommend before the long trip over the Atlantic

A great spot to eat at particularly if you are in transit at the Dallas airport. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and of course the food was excellent

Small lunch- $60 for two- the only saving grace was it was right next to our gate. When I got the bill I was shocked.

Great place to sit and chill between flights. They have the BEST chips I have ever, ever, ever eaten. I ordered a taco (a la carte) and it was almost a meal for me. We sat toward the back of the restaurant but if you want to people watch, grab a table up near the front. We were in between flights and had time to kill and since they were not very busy they did not mind us sitting there. I wish they had one in CA.

If you want a meal with substance and taste, drop by the pappasito's. Counter seating was available for those of us in a hurry. The chips were light and the salsa was warmed. I had a steak quesadilla and a mohito. The serving was generous and I had enough to pack later. They have great little to-go containers by the way. The mohito was refreshing. Fresh lime, fresh crushed mint, all in perfect proportion; it wasn't watered down at all.

No rush while at DFW Airport, so stopped in at Pappasito's. Enjoyed a great margarita with some of the best chips ever! Thin, served warm and do delicious! Ordered the chicken quesadilla and was not disappointed. I thought the service was outstanding as well as the food and margarita. Danny was my server and he was awesome! Will return next time in DFW Airport!

We were pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. On a Friday night, we had fast, friendly, and attentive service at the bar. Shelby was very nice and helpful. Loved her recommendations for drinks and our food was the best Mexican I've had in a long time. I expected more chain-food type cuisine and it was much better than that. Queso dip is the best!!

I should probably give this five stars by airport food standards; it's at least four outside. Possibly the best tortilla soup ever. And a lovely grilled salmon and mango/avocado salad. Chips fried in an oil that gave them a slightly strange favor to my taste...but amazing smoke-flavored warm salsa, so they didn't last long anyway. Good draft beer selection including some locals. Fast and friendly service. Mid-range prices. Wow.

Well inside the DFW airport inside the cantina waiting for my flight. If you like a Margarita blended no salt yum yum. Great chips and Salsa and the Guacamole is very good. Great way to kick back relax before your flight. Don't drink two margaritas, if so tell the your gate departure time and flight before you do. I'm heading home and sometimes that's a great thing. I miss my three little dogs and cannot wait to see them. Great way to end your trip. Been very long three days of business. Stop by enjoy some chips and Salsa and a Great Margarita.

On December 27, 2018, I was stuck at DFW due to delays and cancellations. I decided to have dinner at Pappasito's Cantina as I wanted a nice sit down place that wasn't too noisy. I was pleasantly surprised - even though the airport was packed and the restaurant was very busy, I got great service, a good meal and a great margarita. I chose an appetizer, chicken quesadillas, instead of an entree as I didn't want a heavy meal. I also got a margarita - one of their specialties. The waiter was attentive and food was good, especially for airport fare. I recommend this place - it's worth taking the Sky-link if you are in a different terminal. The prices aren't bad, either.

Pretty good TexMex 803828039 Very prompt and friendly service. Decent airport prices. Limited selection but good quality. The enchiladas were substantial and flavorful. Creamy refined beans and fluffy rice. Huge crispy tacos. Two is too much for one person. Good find

It isn't easy to find really good food in an airport, and this place confirmed that truism. Pappasita's Cantina is a Tex-Mex themed restaurant owned by Greeks (according to their menu). It has a nice atmosphere and friendly waitstaff, and the tortilla chips are thin and crispy and the warm salsa really tasty. Unfortunately, the main dishes we ordered were both so salty as to be nearly inedible. My friend ordered chicken enchiladas and I ordered the beef enchiladas. Both were salty, but the beef enchiladas were the saltiest and I couldn't eat but a few bites cut with rice, before I had to give it up. We didn't take the time to try to send it back as the place was really busy and we didn't want to take the time...it's an airport after all. With no real concern for repeat business, we weren't sure it would matter any way. Perhaps my tolerance for salt is low--perhaps not, give it a try. Unless you are a frequent flier through DFW, you, like we probably won't be tempted to make it a repeat experience.

Found this amazing food in Dallas Fort Worth Airport today and it was freakin delicious!!! Fajitas and shrimp wrapped in bacon!!! Guacamole was freshly made! Salsa is a smoked flavor! Top that off with a watermelon margarita! A must stop for this airport!

Great fajitas! Recommend steak fajitas! The cheese dip is good too. It was a bit pricey. They were quick.

Well I was just pleasantly surprised. Stopped in with an hour before boarding - got a smoking hot plate of chicken and beef fajitas for one split with my wife and was out of there jammed, delighted, and with like 30 minutes to spare! ✈️ Great food. Friendly server. Good price. Gotta go to DFW? Then you gotta go to Pappasito's!

We get it, it’s an airport restaurant, but these prices are out of control. My wife and I ordered the $30 plate of fajitas and three shrimp that was supposed to feed two people. The flavors were “meh,” and the portions were small by Mexican food standards. My daughter had $14 bowl of soup and my son had a decent $15 burrito. Even the quesadillas were over $15. Mexican food should not cost this much. On the bright side, the service was really good. If you’re on a budget, but up a fast food joint.

Even though I can’t have my favorite, beef fajitas, anymore due to soy sauce (wheat) used in the marinade, I asked for and was given the GF menu. I had very tasty cheese enchiladas made with corn tortillas. The waiter answered every question I had. I noticed the salsa was listed as gluten free, but there was no mention of chips. The waiter said that the chips are fried in the fryer where non GF items are fried, so they don’t consider them GF. So many restaurants and staff don’t know that or don’t bother to know it. Great server and delicious food! It was a happy find, and we all know how tough airports are for gluten sensitive people.

Wow! This was the best airport food I have ever eaten. And amazing craft cocktails. The person sitting next to me enjoyed his food so much he had to share that it was also the best food he has ever eaten at an airport restaurant.

What appeared to be a good option at DFW turns out to be massively over priced spot.The service is fair and I am kind of disappointed with the offerings here. Better places to eat st DFW.

This is a surprising find in DFW. The food is authentic, tasty, big portions and of course big prices for Mexican Cuisine. Nevertheless it's worth the $$$. The service was prompt. The food served hot fresh and with very good presentation. (It tastes as good as it looks). I found the chips very light and the salsa authentic but I still like it hotter for my taste.I had a long unexpected layover in Dallas so this place raised my mood.

We purchased the chicken fajitas for two and it could have fed four. Chicken had lots of flavor and super tender. The salsa that they brought out with the chips was warm and delicious. Ceaser, our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. He was very attentive and made sure that our drinks were always full and that we were happy with all of our choices. Glad we stopped and ate here on our flight delay. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We ate here during a layover after 7 day in San Pedro. The food was fantastic. The shrimp was plump and full of flavor. The hard shell taco and enchilada was also delicious. Others in the group had adult beverages and they looked great. Chips and salsa were very good.

It was the first menu I saw with pancakes so tried it. They were huge but a bit dry. The butter and pecans on top were awesome but they just crumbled to pieces because they were so dry. The service was not the greatest really so overall it was an average breakfast.

On a long layover and had heard the brand, so decided to give it a shot. This place features a full bar and several tables. While they may do take away, not sure why you would wish to do so. Once seated, the server was at the table very quickly armed with water, chips and salsa. He clearly knew his menu and had several recommendations. We went with the fajita special featuring the shrimp. The shrimp and chicken was good, but the steak was outstanding. The rice was not dried out and the guac was oh so fresh. The pinto beans were a nice touch, but we were pretty full up by the time we got that far. The serving sides are very generous, but you do pay for them. The fajitas were excellent and you will pay 20$+ for any combination you might choose. Given the meal is enough for two and you likely can't take it with you, you may want to bring a friend and share. Definitely recommend!

If you are a French toast fan, you have to try it here served with the applewood smoked bacon. Three generous sized pieces of toast are served.

Had a stopover in Dallas Fort Worth Airport and OMG, I found a quick breakfast place that made a fantastic breakfast burrito. I mean they stuff this thing, with sausage or steak, with bean, potatoe, cheese, eggs and the spice was just out of sight. Please if you're hungry and get a layover at DFW, eat at Pappasito's and enjoy yourself.

Checked it out on a long layover at DFW, expecting a place where I could have a watered down margarita and chips, but this place surprised me. Great service, excellent food (maybe the best guacamole I’ve had). Check it out when you want to enjoy a great dinner in an airport!

We made a good choice by stopping here to eat. The food was really good! We had the tacos and the salmon salad. The chips and salsa were also very fresh and tasty. Prices are good and food and service excellent! Watermelon Margaritas are also a very good choice!

Great breakfast… in the air! We visited Hawaii for our summer vacation in 2018 - the Big Island, Oahu and Kauai. We departed St. Louis for Dallas around 8am and were hungry by time we arrived at DFW. We soon found our gate and looked for food and quickly discovered Pappasito’s. Our daughter and I ordered, and enjoyed some of our food on the ground before push-back, and then in the air over Texas. Our daughter enjoyed the hyenas rancheros and I enjoyed a breakfast burrito. We were all-smiles and nicely filled and that made for a great flight from DFW-KOA. Thank you, Pappasito’s!

I had the shrimp tacos which were good. The service was great. The served warm tortillas with salsa complimentary. Drinks were ok. I would go back if I was in the mood for a taco prior to my travels.

Good stopping point for a quick meal when in Dallas Fort Worth airport. I had the Huevos Rancheros and they were very good

My flight was cancelled, I lost my luggage, I didn't have an overnight bag and I was hungry. I was offered a seat next to the kitchen which of course I didn't mind. Honestly, I am super nosy....I want to see the interaction between the team members & I want to see if the floor was clean. ): I thought it was the best seat in the house. I was served by either Tiffany or Ahsley, I don't remember. Nonetheless, she was a very conscience and polite waitress. It was a welcomed break away from the busyness of the terminal. I buckled down ordered the salmon salad. (Healthy Lifestyle) It was good sizeable portion of protein and spinach. My waitress saw me picking the mangoes from the salad and then offered me more. That is what I am talking about! I would recommend this place again simply because of their attention to their customers. I noticed a guy named Ivan and he really cared about what his customer need. He talked with them as though their were family. Great team dynamics and wonderful food.

Had some time between flights so checked out this restaurant and it was pretty good. The service was friendly, the food tasted great and was served quick, and they didn't push us out when we were done eating even after sitting there about 15 minutes during a busy time of day.

This is what airport Mexican food tastes like. Everything was bland and roughly below average. My wife gave her tacos a C-minus. My chicken burritos were similar. I'd skip it.

While passing thru DFW and having just over an hour to spare until my next boarding, I stopped in here to sit at the bar to enjoy breakfast. The bartender (I believe his name is Riyad) was excellent! He immediately greeted me, asked if I wanted coffee, made a couple quick suggestions and checked in how much time I had until my flight… all expert ways to take care of diners in an airport! I went with one of his suggestions, the Huevos Rancheros… OMG, it was amazing! It had a perfectly cooked (medium temp) steak inside of some corn tortilla with an outstanding Rancheros sauce on it. The beans that came on the side were so tasty and fresh and then there were the breakfast potatoes underneath… it was a very well assembled dish! It tasted great too!! They have a full bar here and can prepare anything. One more pro move he made was to immediately create the check and sit it on his side of the bar, in front of me, allowing me to prepay, without having to wait later, as they did get busy pretty quickly. I’ll definitely stop back in here on my next connection thru DFW!

Fajitas for 2 $35. drinks are $12-20 each. Decent food but pricey. Corn tortillas instead of flour upon request a plus

So I travel through DFW on a consistent basis and this place has the BEST breakfast in the whole airport. Some genius thought of taking two nice cheese enchiladas and topping it with a meat sauce and 2 sunny-side eggs! That with the fried potatoes and beans make a hearty meal! You must come to the gate A28 location and not the one in the C terminal (although, they are only one stop apart on the Sky-Link) for this particular dish. Service is also great with a full bar to quench any thirst!

This Pappasito's Cantina is located in the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. We ordered beef fajitas and beef tacos, both dishes were exceptional. This restaurant serves the best Mexican Food I have had in an airport. The restaurant has a bar and TV to watch sporting events. It's expensive even for an airport, but the quality of food was worth eat.

Grabbed a quick bite while waiting for boarding. The chicken and spinach quesadilla was quite good but I always forget how bad their margaritas are, they taste like pure sour mix.

Friendly staff, nice restaurant. But boy oh boy does this place come up short. Ordered the chicken burrito. It came with a hard cold tortilla filled with chicken and beans. Looked fancy from the outside, but landed like a rock in my stomach. Prices are way over board for what you get. They call this Tex-Mex. They should be ashamed. Food is not cooked fresh. It is just microwaved. Plate was hot and food was cold. Does this make sense? Plenty of other restaurants in the terminal avoid this one like the plague.

My wife and I had time between flights so "popped" in for lunch. We expected typical ugly, overpriced airport food....but, what a pleasant surprise. Great service from all the staff, and the food was incredible! We look forward to our next visit!

Delicious reasonably priced food. Service was great! Didn’t really expect this at the airport. We will definitely remember this place when we travel!

This visit was definitely hard to rate. The food portions were a bit larger than expected. The service was efficient and wuick. The staffc was friendly. The meal was a bit overpriced and the food quality was a tad disappointing. Hummmmm.

Nice little place, well actually, nice little places in terminal A around 30 something. We had the fajitas for two and had a hard time leaving being so full. LOVE the salsa.

I was skeptical coming in, just because I didn't know if I wanted Mexican food. The restaurant is very nice, my waitress Telea was very cordial and talked me into the grilled fish tacos. They were absolutely amazing and huge, well worth the money spent. I hope to be in terminal A again so I can have this wonderful food again.

It was a pleasure to be able to stop here again (a regular thing for me!) and enjoy the good food and good service. My server, Savannah, could not have been better and my crispy beef taco dinner was delicious. The chips and salsa are always a favorite as is dining here any time I pass through DFW and Terminal A!

Had quick turn near gate A28 and had top notch chicken quesadilla. Waitress Brooke was excellent. Average ambiance.

We stopped in for lunch between flights -- excellent service -- in and out in less than 30 minutes. Chicken tamales, chips and queso, chicken burritos were all great quality (fresh, delicious and flavorful). Service was fast, friendly and they accommodated special requests!! Loved it 😁

Seated promptly. Complimentary salsa & chips. Drink refill n/c. Fast attentive service. Had grilled chicken sandwich-excellent.

We love the actual Pappasito's but the airport restaurant is a poor substitute. The hostess was unfriendly and took us to a center table, bypassing a million comfy booths. When someone else asked her if they could have a booth, she replied that she would see if she could find any. Well, we could see them. I understand that there is a system so as not to overload any servers but geez. We ordered guacamole and it was so bad we couldn't eat it. Our other food, a salmon salad and a bowl of soup, were okay. The salad did not say it had cheese all over it and my child doesn't eat dairy. I will say that our server was as lovely as she could be, taking the guac off of our bill and offering us to go cups of our iced tea. We were grateful for her kindness and tipped her accordingly even though we were unhappy with the food. A good server is a good server.

A group from work stopped in here for lunch yesterday. Asked to see if they had a lunch menu. Nope they do not have one. I ended up getting the chicken nachos. My cost for ice tea and nachos was 20.00. I could have gone across the terminal and had many other options for alot less. I won't ever be visiting this airport restaurant, nor will I tell anyone to lunch here. Sorry, but you could introduce some lunch items, ala carte options... I really would have given you a better review, but I just can't.

Breakfast quesadillas and a buttermilk pancake were served quickly, just what you want in an airport meal. Large portions on both.

If you fly into DFW Terminal A be sure and see Ri! He is the BEST bartender and sweetest man ever! He took care of me and made me feel like a special person after a really bad day! Plus the margaritas and shrimp and crab cocktail are the bomb! I even stopped by on my way back through DFW to see Ri, but he was serving in the restaurant. Well word got to him that I had stopped just to see him and he came into the bar and gave me the great big hug!! I can't thank him enough for his kindness!!

I had an hour wait between connecting flights and was able to get a great meal with quick service. The salsa had an excellent smokey flavor and the chicken and spinach quesadillas were the best I've ever had. The food was served quickly and the service was terrific.

Never expect much from airport restaurants.... this was a pleasant surprise. Good Mexican food - very good service and a comfortable environment. Whenever I am in the DFW airport and have time to kill.... I will be going to Pappasito's Cantina.

We were stuck in the airport for over 6 hours due to a mechanical issue with our plane, so I felt a margarita was warranted! We did not eat here, but the food looked quite good. Margarita was outstanding & hit the spot!

Ate at Pappsitas on our layover on or way out, and just hoped we were going through Terminal A on our way back. Bountiful enough food that we split a meal on our way back. Great distinct seasoning on all the dishes, with especially good tamales. Surprised by the wonderful service in an airport restaurant. Will be glad to have a sufficient layover to come again.

We stopped here as the restaurant looked very colourful and busy. We were looked after a lovely young gentleman called Felipe who was most charming. We had the most amazing long Margarita's the best by far 😁 Along with chips and dips. After 2 of these drinks I was ready a snooze they were that great. Thank you

Pappasito's is an upscale Tex-Mex chain restaurant in the DFW area. I was happy to see it inside the security area of Terminal A. It's located near gate A28. There are three different areas to the restaurant. As you look at the restaurant from the gates, the right side is mainly a bar with a few tables. The center area is a grab-and-go kiosk. The left area is a larger sit-down restaurant. The same kitchen serves all three area, so the food quality should not vary. Decor is very well done. They brought the upscale feel to the airport with the wood panel walls, arched ceilings and robust decor. I chose the restaurant from the gate area because of the look of the place. I enjoy Pappasito's menu. The flavors are very good, and my Chicken Enchilada was no exception. The salsa verde sauce on top was spicy. The chicken was tender. Great dish. The free chips were served with a warm salsa. They have a large pot that keeps it warm. It's served from the pot and directly to your table. Yumm! Service during my lunch was spotty. The place was empty, but the meal took a very long time. My main knock on Pappasito's both in the airport and elsewhere is their pricing. Two enchiladas will set you back $17. Specialty platters run $25-27 a plate. A shrimp taco place is $23. If you had a drink and then add tax and tip, you have a very expensive meal.

We had a 3 hour layover in Dallas so a friend told us about Pappasito’s Cantina. This was our first time eating here and we have to say the food was great. The service was also great our server kept checking on us to see if we needed anything. She gave us tips on what to order. We had the carne asada fries and they were delicious. My wife and I ordered the Steak & Chicken Fajitas and they were super tasty we were not disappointed with it , our friends had the fish tacos. So if you want a great place to eat at the airport and have drinks stop by Pappasito’s Cantina.

You can get great fajitas and srimp at DFW airport - Terminal A around gate 30, right in front of the Information Center. This is Papassito’s Mexican restaurant. Good for fajitas, margaritas, you named. Ben Mog the server did a good job. Keep up the good work. Safe travels!

This is pretty pricey ($12-15) but is very fast and very good for airport food. Staff is very friendly and helpful. A positive experience.

Gate 28, quick and easy and good food. Made a quick stop over easier. Staff helpful. Lines forms in hallway

You’ve been there, right? At the airport, flight delayed, need something to take up the extra time. Right. In my case, it was Dallas’ Pappasito’s to the rescue. The bar staff was very pleasant. (And entertaining!) The food looked good, but I only had a few minutes left until my flight was ready to roll. (It some time to decide where to go...) So the Mosaic IPA was the answer. Delicious. Got a few extra minutes at DFW? Give them a try!

Great breakfast tacos. I like egg, cheese, and bacon. Cooked fresh and quick. Friendly and fast service at the bar.

For breakfast had the Eggchiladas and Breakfast Quesadillas with side of Avocado. Best food I have had in an airport.

This airport standout is exactly that. It’s not fancy, the service is decent, but it gets 5 stars for the food. This is one of the few places where the grilled fish tacos are actually better than the deep fried fish tacos. The food is outstanding for DFW. I’ll be back on another stopover.

Review for the C19 Location. I was reluctant to order from the restaurant thinking the breakfast would be mass produced and have that “mass produced” taste. Like a lot of airport restaurants. I asked the waitress if the eggs were powdered she answered “they are cracked then scrambled on the grill”. I took the chance and had a great Potato, Cheese and Egg Taco With Bacon. The accompanying salsa was a bit spicy to taste but was a perfect compliment to the taco.

Looking past the fast food options, we found this restaurant (across from gate A28) and a GREAT server, Ivan. Food was great, TVs on wall for news, coffee and tea always topped off. Right next to terminal restrooms. Enjoy!

What a pleasant surprise. Airport food that is absolutely delicious. Margaritas that are out of this world.

By far the best "airport" restaurant ever! I was here for a couple of hours after a delayed flight. Helen owns the front counter and is an incredible host. She is so personable and extremely professional! Celeste who works the bar is equally amazing - customer service is awesome here, and the food is great too! Very impressed! Managers, take care of these ladies, the are great ambassadors of your business.

I'd been in and out of DFW 5 times recently. Pappasito's didn't particularly look special but it really is pretty great! The grilled Baja fish taco's I had where juicy and delicious - I'm still thinking about them 3 weeks later. The also made a decent Margherita, the service was snappy and the price was very cheap. I'd also explored 2 other Mexican restaurants in the Airport but this blew them both away - i would happily take the airport train to the right terminal (C and A i believe) to eat there again.

This is our place to eat when we have some time at the DFW airport. I personally love the chicken and spinach quesadilla. It's yummy and cooked perfectly. Large portions! The rest of my family usually end up with cheese enchiladas or crunchy ground beef tacos a la carte. Each single taco is virtually the size of two regular size tacos from other restaurants. Enjoy!

The most disgusting burrito, it was filled with watery cheese and could not even hold it. No flavor, salsa for chips was hot and to salty . That was the worst burrito for $15.99

Airport food usually is very bad but the food here is good with the guacamole getting the five star rating for freshness and taste. its always seems we have enough time to get some before connecting out of Dallas or back through Dallas to Austin

We were delighted to find Pappasito's near our gate and stopped in for a fast lunch. They told us that most people can get in and out in 25 minutes, and that was great for us. We loved the Mexican atmosphere, colors, pictures and lights, and they had a number of good choices on the menu. I ordered the taco dinner and my wife at the enchiladas, and we received them on our table in 6-7 minutes- Fantastic service! They were really tasty too- especially the enchiladas- really delicious sauce. I wish we had had time for dessert, but had to run for the plane. But, we'd love stop by Pappacito's again on our next trip.

Visited hoping to get the taste and experience I recalled at Austin years ago. Relatively good food, but not quite the same. A bit pricey, especially beers at over $10, though at the airport. Excellent service, though, and large portion of food consistent with the Pappasito's I recall.

I dine at Papasito’s Cantina a lot, when passing through DFW airport & I always like to get their cheese enchiladas with chili con carne, rice & refried beans with guacamole & chips. The house salsa here is really good too. This restaurant is far superior to most airport restaurants anywhere. Always good service & fast, which is important, when passing through an airport.

Challenge: four hours in DFW Airport Solution: Texmex at Pappasito's Food: fantastic fresh fish tacos and endless cups/ salsa. Fresh grilled tender and moist fish. Copilot (server): Ri with great suggestions, prompt friendly service, and attention to detail. Rest of the flight crew was great as well. Conclusion: I'll return great food, service, cold beer, and atmosphere.

Fast and good! Just what I needed at the airport before taking off for a business trip. Too bad that the chips & salsa are an extra charge - but oh well. That’s a very important part of eating TexMex for me!

Popped into here between flights with a friend who knew the drill: order at the counter (but there are menus to peruse that the tables before you order) then they call your name when ready. Ordinarily this would drop the rating a star but this is based on it being great airport food. And it is. Large portions, fast service and great flavors! I had chicken quesadillas and we had guacamole and queso for the table. I loved the texture and flavors in the quesadilla - best one I've had. The sides were also large and flavorful. Wish I had one of these places closer to home. Will just have to travel via DFW when I can!

I can't believe I'm actually reviewing an airport restaurant however I was pleasantly surprised at the nachos I had at this place. Now, maybe it was because I was really hungry and waiting for a flight but I ordered their nacho Supreme and was just blown away by how tasty it was. They use this sort of cheese sauce that appeared to be made from real cheese, not that can crap you get it AM/PM gas stations. Like I said, it was really pretty tasty. This was slathered atop a pile of very thin, light, deliciously crispy chips with their version of ground beef, refried beans, Etc. The service year was absolutely astounding and fast. I received my order within 5 minutes! Unheard of in an airport I can't vouch for the rest of their food as I didn't even get a chance to look at it but, should I go through this terminal at DFW I wouldn't hesitate have these nachos again.

Fast, friendly, efficient service AND good food at an airport restaurant! Our server, Danny, was outstanding. We had classic food, chicken burrito and taco dinners. Both were very good. A bit spicy, but not overwhelming, flavors were well blended. Margarita made with fresh lime and lemon was delightful. Lots of beer on tap. Give it a try. I will stop back by next time I have a layover at DFW.

Fast service, nice seating restaurant, chicken burrito was deli and chips and salsa too! Service was fast too and the topo chico sparkling water was refreshing 😀

Decided what the heck as I had been eating Mexican all weekend in New Mexico. Ate at several quality restaurants in NM, and really thought this burrito would pale in comparison, but to the contrary it may have been the best of the entire weekend. Honest. Delicious. If I’m ever in Dallas again I won’t hesitate to return.

I travel alot and have never been to an airport restaurant with such friendly and helpful staff. The food was very good as well which is also an exception to the rule. I highly recommend eating at Pappasito's Cantina at DFW airport.

Our regular location is in Georgia but I was pretty stoked to see a Pappasito's in the DFW airport today. It had a streamlined menu but still many of the favorites, such as fajitas and the bacon-wrapped shrimp. Delicious! Definitely a highlight for a long day of traveling. Bonus - VERY quick turnaround, so I was in and out in a hurry.

DFW has plenty of choices when it comes to eating on the run....My gate happened to be close to Pappasito's so I popped in. The margarita and shrimp cocktail were just what I needed to fill in some time before my connection to Austin was ready to board. As far as airport eateries are concerned, this was a great one! Friendly waiter, lots of choices to suit various cravings, and it was really good!

Love Pappasito's, especially their fajitas, so made the long trek for a quick bite inside the airport. Due to terminal remodel, restaurant is half the size it used to be. Didn't have much time so ordered steak nachos thinking it would be quick; however, took quite some time to get and the meat was a little on the burnt side. Not sure I'd go back, quite a few other restaurants and if you do have plenty of time, can go to one of the other terminals for an even bigger selection.
