I was first introduced to this restaurant when on vacation in Arizona back in 2012. I've been back to Arizona two more times since, and always made an effort to stop at Pappadeaux with whoever was traveling with me, and every one of them have loved the experience!
The food, drink, and service has been fantastic every time, that I would probably consider it my favorite restaurant. It's unfortunate that there aren't any closer locations to me, but perhaps that helps keep the quality exceptional and my visits more memorable. For the record, the alligator bites are a must for an appetizer!
