What People Are Saying About Don Pablo's Mexican Kitchen

In Short – Bright colors and big booths make this quick-service, sit-down Mexican restaurant a cheery choice for group outings. The traditional menu--including classic enchiladas, soft and crispy tacos, mesquite-grilled shrimp, sizzling fajita platters and made-from-scratch salsas--features lunch specials, create-your-own combinations and to-go options for more fast-paced patrons. Tequila makes its appearance in house margaritas and cocktails. Bringing the little ones? They're catered to with a kid-friendly, Tex-Mex menu.

Reheated enchiladas?

by truce57

Are you kidding me? Stuff you buy in your grocer's freezer will taste better. It's prepared the same way: comes frozen on a truck and gets reheated. Even the enchiladas. I can't think of anything more disgusting than thawed enchiladas. Taco Bell has more authentic food.

  • Pros: Nice river view

Absolutely Average

by r_b_r

Typical franchise restaurant at its worst. The service is totally dependant upon which high school waiter/waitress happens to be working your table. The wait is too long for bland psuedo Mexican food. Order a beer and it will arrive well after you've received your appetizer.

What a joke

by snowrooster

This is not, by any stetch, Mexican food. In fact, it's not even good food - mexican or not. I am always amazed how the masses will flock to sub par food and service just from some flashy advertising. How people can continue to think it's good after eating there, well, I'm just plain dumbfounded.

  • Cons: Bad Chips, Poor Service, Bland Food
