The food here is great. This is the first time that we ever ate at this particular Pappadeaux restaurant. We were able to get a seat within 5 minutes which is great for this eatery. The food was good. Try the Alligator as an appetizer for something a little different. The Lobster Bisque is also wonderful. The portions are huge.... More

You feel very comfortable in a suit or shorts and a shirt...every is just there for good food. I like to bring new acquaintances to this place...the food is flavorful and... More

Pappadeaux is our overall favorite restaurant in the Grapevine, TX area. The restaurant's atmosphere, people and of course its menu are all fantastic. We particularly enjoy the activity around the bar on weekends!

First, let me start by saying, I have been going to the Arlington Pappadeaux for at least 15 years, as I grew up in Arlington.
