Pablo's Mexican Restaurant

Very pleasant experience! Although the restaurant was busy the food was prompt and delicious. Server was very conscientious of possible sources of gluten cross contamination. Food was very reasonably priced and serving was generous. Lots of gluten free options on the separate gluten free menu (can be found on the website as well). Make sure you don’t eat chips until you ensure they are the gluten free ones. We couldn’t have the queso due to some cross contamination concerns and server suggested the six layer dip and we were not disappointed! No issues after. Would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone with gluten allergies or celiac disease.

Lunch was amazing. Shrimp bowl and a margarita. And don't forget the salsa and chips are a favorite while you wait!

I The food and atmosphere were absolutely wonderful — everything came out hot, flavorful, and well-prepared. The restaurant itself has a great vibe and we really enjoyed the overall setting. Unfortunately, our experience with our server did put a bit of a damper on the evening. Our waitress (taller, on the thicker side, blonde hair) seemed somewhat disengaged and gave the impression that she was annoyed to be serving our table. There was only three of us. Each time we tried to answer her questions about food or drinks, she would walk away before we could finish responding, which was frustrating since we were planning on ordering additional items a few times. Other than that, the food was fantastic and we would definitely consider returning — hopefully with a more attentive experience next time

Pablo's has quickly become my favorite restaurant in Shakopee. Helpful, friendly, and attentive staff (big shout-out to Cassandra S today!), and delicious food. Even better: delicious gluten-free food! They have gluten-free chips! And an entire gluten-free menu. I ordered the enchiladas (lunch with one side pictured). Absolutely hit the spot! The restaurant is a little dark, which is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. It does make for an intimate meal, though, whether a date or group or dining alone.

I love the atmosphere. The staff is friendly and efficient. The food is awesome. Pablo's is our favorite place to eat. Try it. You will be glad you did.

First time here. Greeted and seated quickly even though lots of patrons already there. Chips and salsa within a minute of being seated. Our server Jes R was friendly fast and anticipated our needs. I had Jalepeno Cilantro margarita. Good taste, nice balance of jalapeños and mix. I ordered chimichangas, entree includes two. I asked to hold rice, beans, and tomatoes..it came out perfect. Great taste. Big portions. Super place.

I grew up eating here for family meals quite frequently as my grandparents knew Paul. The fried ice cream was always my favorite as a kid. The decor is bold and playful. Excellent mexican food. Try the Seafood Cancun on the weekends. It is AMAZING.

I’ve been coming here for over 25 years. Every single time my food is delicious and has great flavor. I usually order the enchiladas and a margarita.
