About Pappasito's Cantina

Pappasito's Cantina, located in the airport, serves delicious Tex-Mex cuisine. Their menu offers a variety of options to accommodate different tastes, including cheese quesadillas with a side salad and pulled chicken burritos with a mesquite flavor. The food is made to order and cooked fresh in front of customers. The staff is friendly and efficient, known for quick service and a willingness to refill drinks. With a cozy atmosphere and plenty of seating, Pappasito's Cantina is a great spot to grab a bite before or after a flight. Recent reviews highlight the fast service and flavorful dishes, such as the juicy steak and egg taco, which surprised many with its taste. The chicken fajita platter is moist and well seasoned, and the Cancun burrito is a favorite among visitors. Some diners have mentioned that the food quality is on par with other Pappasito's locations, always very tasty. While service can sometimes involve waiting and food is served in styrofoam, the staff remains helpful and knowledgeable. However, the tap water has been criticized for its poor taste. The Fajita Platter with chicken and corn tortillas is a popular choice, especially for those with allergies, as it is considered a safe option. Though the ambiance is a bit pedestrian as customers order at the counter and find their own tables, overall, Pappasito's offers quick, tasty Tex-Mex meals suitable for travelers in a comfortable setting, making it one of the best airport restaurants for many.

la atención rápida, el servicio y la higiene del personal... por esta época de Pandemia que estamos viviendo ... de antemano... muchas gracias.....
I visited Pappasito’s in the morning on 9/30. I have celiac disease, and the staff were so knowledgeable about it and friendly. I was overjoyed to be able to eat hot food at the airport for the first time! I really appreciated it that I didn’t feel like an inconvenience. At the same time, IAH is one of the cleanest airports I have visited and I ate my food by a window watching planes. Thank you dearly Pappasito’s!
Didn’t grab his name but the man with the glasses on the register/ bar was awesome! Drink perfectly balanced and the food was good too, quite surprising for being in an airport!
