I ordered the mixta tacos and they just weren't my vibe. Looked like they had chopped up hot dogs in them. Creative points but I just wouldn't stop in again. You may like it though! Stop by for yourself and support a local business!

We came in on a weekday afternoon. My cousin had seen an ad on Facebook that they had some Mimosas…read morefor $2 and Kids Eat Free special advertised for the whole summer. She said she had called to verify beforehand. It happened to be one of the kid's birthday so we decided to check it out. When we arrived we were quickly greeted. Only one other table of people in the restaurant. We asked our waiter about the special and he said that it was not a current special. No further explanation, but maybe it was only available during brunch would be my guess? Asked about Happy Hour (because I saw it on their website) but he said no...my cousin said okay--any specials? He said oh, we have margaritas for $5. I decided to get one. They are available on ice and frozen (but comes out of the machine, not freshly blended). It was okay...def wouldn't have paid more than $5 for it though. Took us a little while to decide what to order since there is a variety of food available. I got the Patty Melt, my son got the Pepperjack Jalapeno burger, the kids got cheeseburgers, and my cousin got the Chicken Alfredo Pasta and mi tia got some Chicken Strips. They were out of Pepsi so had to choose something else. Presentation was okay. Burgers and pasta could use a little more seasoning. Fries were homemade, but needed to be parboiled before fried for a more thoroughly cooked end result and needed more seasoning as well. Our waiter was attentive and kind. He did well on refilling beverages and chips. It was nice to receive complimentary chips and salsa as they are hard to come by anymore. The salsas were good. Restrooms were clean and smelled fresh. The automatic gratuity was a little high. Overall experience was satisfactory.

This place has a bit of everything for everyone, the portions are filling and everything is well seasoned.

However, the food is overpriced and the service we received was dismissive. There were a lot of flies inside, and we found a fly in our margarita after a couple of sips. When we brought this up to the server, no apologizes were made and it was brushed over. We were told they replaced it with a new one, but the glass we received after was the exact same level it had been previously, which we were told was due to restaurant policy. Important to note, the "full" glass we were given not even a full glass. We returned the drink due to not feeling confident in the change. Would not recommend this place, and would recommend driving out to some of the other further restaurants in the area!

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.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The foot-long quesadilla blended tender carne asada, two cheeses, onions, spices and other flavors into a buttery, crispy tortilla. Absolutely delicious! The frijoles were also fantastic- great blend of lime and broth. The service was impeccable. My waitress was knowledgeable of the menu, kind and attentive. I also loved the atmosphere, they had the World Cup playing and it added to the good vibes.
