Really enjoyed my visit to Papi Chulo in Dún Laoghaire. The Mexican street food was fresh, full of flavour and really well prepared. There’s a great choice of burritos, tacos and nachos, and the staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The service was quick and the atmosphere was lively and relaxed. A great spot in The Pavilions on Marine Road for lunch or dinner, and definitely one of my favourite places for Mexican food in Dún Laoghaire. I’ll definitely be back!

We ordered a burrito bowl and a Tijuana mucho box. I wasn’t expecting the box to be that spicy, I got a stomachache the next day 😬 it tasted good tho

Response from the owner

Hi Alba
Thanks so much for your feedback! 😊 We're really glad you enjoyed the taste.
Sorry to hear the Tijuana Mucho Box was a bit too spicy for you and that it gave you a stomachache. 🌶️😬
it's definitely one of our hottest options!
Next time, we'd be happy to recommend something a little milder that's just as tasty.
We hope to see you again soon! 🌯💚

The food is sooo good and really fresh. The staff were all very friendly and they had a little space to try the sauces with chips before ordering. I got the nacho bowl and my friend got the tacos and it's safe to say we smashed them both. Definitely worth it to pop inside. The price is definitely reasonable as well.

Response from the owner

Hi, Thank you so much for the fantastic feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the fresh food, friendly staff, and the sauce tasting experience. Sounds like you and your friend had a great time smashing those nachos and tacos! We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
