First time here! The restaurant is pretty inside and the staff are very friendly. The mango salsa is incredible. My bf ordered the chicken tostada, which was a generous serving. The tostada shell was light and flaky and he loved it. I ordered the sopes with carnitas. The carnitas were tender and juicy. The sopes had a sauce that had a little kick to it, which I liked. Definitely not your ordinary Mexican food (and I'm Mexican, so I know what I'm talking about). Had a frozen magonada that was delicious. Can't wait to try the mole!
I had an amazing experience at this place! The tacos were incredibly tasty, and the salsa bar was a delightful surprise. We also tried the Cadillac margaritas and they were exceptional! The atmosphere felt genuine, with an indoor water fountain adding to the ambiance. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. This restaurant has quickly become a favorite of mine and I will definitely be returning whenever I am in town.
Their vegan food was great, however one of our dishes was much better than the other. We ordered their vegan taquitos (amazing! and their vegan burrito (subpar . We suspect they might be under new ownership as some things tasted different compared to before COVID. Their margaritas were delicious as well! We definitely will be returning here and trying out their other dishes and hoping for the best!

My girlfriends and I really enjoyed this restaurant. The owner was so polite, attentive, and prompt to take care of all of our requests. He was very outgoing and made our visit very comfortable and welcoming. The food was delicious. They also have a Vegan menu, which is awesome since it's so hard to find a restaurant to go to with our Vegan friends. We will definitely be back!
When you arrive and enter the restaurant, you are greeted by stunning tile work and mouthwatering smells. I was pleasantly surprised to find out they offer a full vegan menu as well as a happy hour. The margaritas were fantastic - you don't want to miss out on them. I particularly enjoyed the mole, albondigas, and tostadas. The staff was friendly and attentive.
This was the first time I had been to El Papagayo Restaurant. That have a mango salsa that was really good. I ordered the shrimp super wet burrito and it was big for two people I highly recommend this place. I like the atmosphere. Old people are very nice. Places very clean. And I like the salsa bar many different kinds of salsa. I give them five stars .
I went to a vegan tamale-making class and they shared their delicious secrets on making amazing tamales. They have a vegan menu in the restaurant. This is such a huge plus to go to a nice place, with great customer service and eat great food.

I actually went to the vegan pop up Crazy Rabbit vegan cuisine and it was fabulous. Even the salad dressing was homemade. I will be back. Thanks for the great food and service.
We had a company party at this place. Good size space. Food selection was great! We were pleasantly surprised. Shrimp in mango-pineapple salsa. Great host.
