“My husband and I come here at least once a month (if not more) for the quesabirria, spicy queso and margaritas! Gina is our server everytime and she is the absolute best, we absolutely love her. She always knows our order my heart and checks in frequently to make sure we're stocked on chips, drinks & have everything we need. Everyone here works as a team helping deliver chips and salsa, salt and pepper, water and napkins from the moment you sit down. You walk in and they're so welcoming and excited to see you! Gina invited us to the salsa night they had and it was an amazing experience! I literally tell everyone I know to come here and they always tell me how much they loved it.

When my husbands grandmother passed away, we started searching for a place that could replicate her cooking and this place was it. Authentic Mexican recipes made with love & by amazing people. This restaurant started as a tester and ended up our favorite place for food, company, service & date night.

“I have been to plenty of Mexican restaurants over the years, but Papa's & Beer stood out because of the combination of great food and friendly service. The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived, and the entire meal was enjoyable. It is easy to see why this place stays busy.“

“We frequent El Jalisco at least once a month after church on Sunday. Jose and his family always remember us and chat it up. You don’t find that kind of atmosphere anywhere anymore.“

“Food was good. Plenty of it!“

“Stopped in on a whim... Very happy with food, atmosphere and service. Order the Jalapeno if you're REALLY hungry. Excellent service, Spider!!!“

“First time trying Qdoba today. I must say everything was great! I got a steak quesadilla and queso with chips. They give you way more food than Chipotle plus guacamole comes with your meal. I have enough leftover for my lunch tomorrow. Customer service was excellent as well. I used the app to order and my food was ready in 10 mins. Will definitely be back!“

“Came here the other day the food was great. It came out quickly and the staff was efficient. But one thing that was not right was the rude and explicit rap music that was playing very loudly.“
