We ordered the fried shrimp and for the amount of food we got, it was such a great deal! I've seen their Facebook and Instagram posts and they have great specials certain days of the week! Our waitress was a sweetheart, we really enjoyed the service, food, and prices! Will definitely return!

I'd still eat here if I'm craving fried, but will go elsewhere for grilled.

They were the best fish tacos I've ever had! Made with perfectly grilled flounder. My son had the shrimp tacos and hubby had the seafood plate with fried flounder and calamari . All very good and service was great too. They were very welcoming and friendly with my dog and provided a bowl of water for her on their patio seating.

The interior offers plenty of seating as they have two large dining areas. They also have a display of their "fresh catch". Overall, good but not excellent seafood. I did enjoy their ceviche.

A Hidden Gem for Mexican Seafood -- Don't Sleep on This Place!…read more As a traveler from California in town for a swim meet, I was on the hunt for good Mexican seafood and stumbled upon La Costa Grill. Based on the reviews, I had decent expectations -- but this place blew them out of the water. The ratings honestly don't do it justice. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was warm and genuine. We were greeted by the hostess and seated right away, even during the lunch rush. Then came a wonderful surprise: our server brought out a mini skillet of the most incredible black refried beans for dipping, alongside four salsas ranging from mild to hot, all served with tostadas -- compliments of the house. Back in California, you're lucky to get one salsa, let alone refried beans as a free starter. It immediately set the tone for the meal. Our server was knowledgeable and genuinely helpful with recommendations. We ended up sharing a lunch portion of paella, an octopus taco, and a fish ceviche tostada -- and every single dish delivered. The octopus taco was a standout; served over a layer of refried beans, it was a flavor combination I didn't know I needed. The ceviche tostada was fresh and bright, and the paella was satisfying and well-seasoned. I also have to give our server extra credit for her transparency -- she mentioned upfront that the paella leans heavier on rice than seafood. That kind of honesty is rare and really appreciated. We ordered it anyway, and we were glad we did. If you're visiting McAllen and want authentic, flavorful Mexican seafood with outstanding service and hospitality, La Costa Grill needs to be on your list. I'll absolutely be returning before I head back home.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I always go to Istioneria Michoacana on Dive and 10th and the whole red snapper is like $38, and the special, with six delicious grilled shrimp is like $42. Really, never going back to La Costa. Have never paid $65 for a small fish! Don't go there, go to Ostioneria Michoacana. I was so mad but it was my fault for not asking the price before ordering. I still think it's a ripoff!
