Reviews for Papi's Mexican Restaurant and Bar in Lexington, KY
Went with a large group. Had a room all to ourselves. Wanted separate checks for each family group, none of which were... sitting together. Waiter was a trooper and never skipped a beat. Best service ever. Food was outstanding. Highly recommend!! Read more
Papi?s on Harrodsburg Road is excellent. This Papi?s is not. Avoid it. Restaurant was dirty. Order came out wrong? twice. Then... part of it didn?t come out at all. Then the AC was leaking on our table so they moved us (and just sat someone else at our tableso the AC can leak on their food? why??). Absolutely understaffed, even for a small restaurant like this. Next time I?ll stickto the other location or avoid Papi?s altogether. Not a good experience. Read more
As usual good Mexican food and lots of it. Great service. Just a flight of stairs above the street.
We used Papi's to cater our wedding (100 people). Gracie, catering manager, did a superb job working with us to have exactly... what we needed. The food was on time, delicious and well within our budget. The chip bar for cocktail hour was a huge success.Everyone loved the food. Papi's does a great job for large events Read more
I recommend the chicken enchiladas with mole sauce. I love them. The rice and beans that are on the side are really good too.... The frozen margaritas are also good. On top of that they have a pleasant staff and you don?t have a long wait for your food. Imoved here from Texas two months ago and needed this place in my life being so far from home. I have been there 3 times so farand plan on returning again soon! Read more
Pretty typical Mexican restaurant selection Less choices than some. Restrooms are super tiny.
We came here on a Saturday for lunch. First it was frightening, we were the only people in the dining area, ONLY people! But we... stayed. Chips and salsa and queso pretty basic but salsa was fresh and chips were hot so we were happy. We got the quesadilla,and the fajita tacos plate which luckily came unassembled just as fajita anything should! Quesadilla person was disappointed inthe size of the quesadilla but said it tasted pretty good. The fajitas were also good, pretty basic, Americanized Mexican food,no different than every other place in town. The steak was a little dry and and salty but it was good. My only complaint was thevegetables were sparse and tasted so much like the meat you couldn?t tell so that cheapened it a bit. All in al it was okay. I?deat here again because the service was great and the have a happy hour on margaritas during the week. Read more
My experience with Papi?s was awful! On a weekday night, not even during prime dinner hours, we waited 45 minutes to order due... to a broken speaker in their drive thru. Upon getting our food, it tasted disgusting. My taco shells were soggy and theseasoning tasted weird like stuffed pepper juice. My quesadilla?s had a slimy texture and were under cooked. The beans wererunny and avocado dip had too much seasoning that tasted stale and salty. Not one thing I ordered from this restaurant wasedible. In fact, I ended up just cooking another meal at home. However, the worst part was this was my stepdaughter?s birthdaymeal that cost $60 dollars, just to go in the garbage. I don?t know if this place was just having an off night, butunfortunately I wont be returning and can?t recommend. Read more
