Welcome to Papagallo Restaurant, a delightful culinary gem nestled in Attleboro, Massachusetts. Known for its vibrant fusion of Latin American flavors, Papagallo invites diners to enjoy a diverse menu that spans salads, hearty appetizers, and indulgent desserts. From the moment you step through the doors, the inviting ambiance captures the perfect blend of classy and casual dining, making it an ideal destination for everything from a casual lunch to an elegant dinner.
At Papagallo, the dining experience goes beyond just meals; it’s about celebrating vibrant flavors and textures. Guests can delight in the house special Papagallo Nachos—a symphony of crunch tortillas topped with refried beans, melted cheese, jalapenos, and fresh pico de gallo, all elegantly served with a dollop of sour cream. Meanwhile, the Fried Plantains, crispy and perfectly paired with mayo-ketchup, pay homage to Puerto Rican comfort food, while the Calamari Crocanti introduces a touch of Italian flair with its light batter and spicy dipping sauce.
The salads are where Papagallo truly shines. The Papagallo Salad is a house favorite, featuring a harmonious blend of mixed greens, dried cranberries, fresh mango, and a special vinaigrette that dances on the palate. The addition of grilled chicken or shrimp elevates this dish into a wholesome meal. Alternatively, the Spinach Salad is a refreshing choice, offering a mix of walnuts, crumbled blue cheese, and raspberry lime vinaigrette—a savory treat that balances sweetness with richness.
For those seeking heartier options, the selection is equally impressive. You cannot go wrong with the enticing Fajita Salad served in a crispy tortilla shell, filled with sautéed peppers, onions, and your choice of chicken, steak, or shrimp—ensuring that every bite is packed with flavor.
For the adventurous palate, the Pupusas are a must-try, providing a nostalgic experience reminiscent of El Salvador's beloved traditional dishes. Served with a side of tangy vinegar cabbage and salsa, these handmade corn flour pockets invite you to savor a taste of Latin heritage.
Additionally, the restaurant’s commitment to quality is reflected in its use of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, which not only enhances the flavors but also underscores its dedication to sustainability.

Been there several times, love this place, staff is so friendly and and welcoming, there food is amazing, Highly Recommend go and check it out you'll be glad you did.
Came here with a couple friends. I've been here a handful of times but it was new to them so I was excited to share it. I've had good experiences here each time, including this one. The service is polite and pretty attentive. It was very busy on a Friday night, they probably could have used another person waiting on tables because we did wait a little bit for water at points and the food took quite a while to come out. It's a casual spot, ambiance screams business casual but no one bats an eye if you show up in a hoody or a t-shirt. Just not a sweatpants and gym shorts kind of place. Complimentary bread with some seasoned olive oil, nice touch (always a way to an Italians heart), and the bread was actually pretty good, served warm, fluffy and crusty. I went astray and got the carne asada. I'd usually get a more exciting dish but it's not often I order steak out and wanted something on the lighter side. I really enjoyed the puerto rican stewed pink beans. The potato, tomato base and the diced bacon in there was delicious. Having bites of this spread over the rice with the fresh pico along with a small bite of steak was a very nice and tasty combo. The skirt steak itself was honestly underwhelming. It wasn't seasoned well, could have used some salt. It was cooked how I requested, medium rare, but boy, it took a lot of chewing to eat this. Cut against the grain, small thin bits, with the grain, nothing helped make this feel more tender. It took me a long time to eat it. I certainly wouldn't order it again. I would likely get the Pollo asado next time since it comes with the same sides and instead of skirt steak, a half chicken. This skirt steak was definitely an inside skirt steak, which is super tough and chewy and takes more prep to tenderize. Unfortunately, they didn't do that extra work, evident by the tired jaw I had upon finishing my plate. Regardless, it's one subpar meal vs the several great ones I've had over the years. Plus, the prices here are so reasonable. $22 for carne asada. Most entrées are around the low-$20-mark, making the value here very good. Just be selective with your choices. My friends tried the Mofongo and the Steak tips. Both really enjoyed their dishes and would order them again.
The place was ok, there is parking but not a lot. We waited about 5-10 minutes for someone to greet us at the front door. The place was clean, the waitress was really nice. The food was ok not great or amazing but just ok.
We met up here with a group of our friends. It looks like a hole in the wall, but looks are deceiving. This place is a little gem. Extensive menu, energetic and polite staff and the food! So delicious.
I have to say, everything I've had from Papagallo has been surprisingly solid especially considering it's a bit of a hole in the wall in Attleboro. Came to try the Mafungo, a somewhat hard to find dish, and was not disappointed. I will say it's definitely better tasting eating there vs takeout (2nd time had takeout and wasn't as enjoyable).
My husband and I stopped here for the first time today for lunch. It was very quiet on a Tuesday at lunchtime. The service was super quick and the server was very friendly. My husband got the chicken tortilla soup and he loved it! I had the lunch portion of the chicken fra diablo. It was honestly the best fra diablo sauce that I've ever had!! My only complaint is it's not closer to home so we could go more often. Everything was fresh and delicious!!
The service was excellent! We also thought all of the food was fantastic and will be back. We tried the clam chowder, chili and shared the vegetable burrito.
Wonderful food, courteous service and unique menu. Reservations recommended. Family friendly atmosphere.
We stopped for an early dinner and enjoyed a sizzling fajita plate and Salvadoran enchiladas Great service and nice ambiance. Bathrooms could be cleaner
