    Excellent food and excellent service. Our server Jose made the Strawberry Jubilee at our table. The beef was grilled to perfection, tender and delicious. We will definitely return for another meal.

    We enjoyed our early afternoon Sunday meal at Palominos. We chose this place because the menu looked delicious and they have a kids play area inside the restaurant on Sundays, which kept my little one happy! I recommend you call ahead for a reservation and request a table near the kids area if that is what you need as only 4-5 tables are within view of it. Otherwise, the main room has more tables and better ambience overall. We ordered the aguachile ceniza y fuego, short ribs, grilled veggie side and two cocktails. The cocktails were wonderfully presented and delicious. Not too strong, 8.5/10. The food overall was good 7/10. My favorite were the aguachiles. The short ribs were tasty but came out almost cold and not as soft or flavorful as I would have liked. The service was 10/10, no notes! Everyone was wonderful. The ambiance was fun and lively, upscale. It's not a place for a quite intimate dinner imo. I can't wait to come back here and try more of the menu

    Decided to go here for our anniversary. Staff were great. Food was delicious and the ambiance was also really nice. They bring out the steak to cut it to size right in front of you. Then add some fancy post searing on certain items. Really interesting touches. Only knock I would have is there were quite a few gnats. Usually happens where cocktails are served with all the fruit but I'm sure there is something that can be done about it. .

    For anyone that has been to Sonora, they know how good the food is. Palominos has great steaks and great service. Because it's new it seems they are still working out some of the kinks. The place looks very modern and they offer some very good Sonoran dishes.

    I had high expectations of this place . I'm very harsh on food and especially when you can't get your medium , well done correctly . They pushed the parillada which was over $300 for 3 meats . Total waste of time . You're better off at taco Palenque for skirt steak!. Beautiful place nice atmosphere but food was sub par and the manager didn't do anything to address the problem. Wanted to remake it . But I don't go out to remake food I go out to eat because I'm hungry now I'm just Angry ! Fook this place ! Go to Wine Cow instead. Thank me later !

    This was a great date night location! The lounge was very beautifully decorated from the red carpet…read moreentrance to the seating at the bar. A James Bond kind of theme, dark, mysterious and sexy. We made reservations and received a call for confirmation. As we sat at the bar, we were served by the bartender, Diamond who was helpful, attentive and willing to answer questions. The three different martinis on Happy Hour menu were excellent, especially the espresso and dirty martini. The empanadas were filled with great flavors of chicken and cheese. The Bond fries we recommend, fries topped with caramelized onions, animal dressing and sprinkled with Parmesan cheese. The spiced mixed nuts, were okay. The charcuterie board was filled with 4 different meats, 4 different cheeses, olives, tomatoes and toast. If any constructive criticism, I would put a few crackers on the board, however it was a great treat! We will be back. Things to be aware, you need a reservation and there is a dress code.

    Drinks and ambiance are amazing, cost of drinks are like Vegas prices which is wild since this is…read morethe valley, but it is a really nice upscale, romantic and chill place to go. You do have to have reservations so don't just walk up they will not allow you in just with anyone, which is good because it keeps the downtown kids out, older, more mature and professional adults! Nice place!! Great for a girls night out as well!!

    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 love…read moretrying new and unique dishes and the Salty Pear pizza was the perfect item on the menu for me to try. It was amazing! The cheese, pears and balsamic glaze all joined together to make a fabulous dish! My husband had the Pepperoni Pizza and he said it was great. Btw, they make their own dough for the pizza and it is perfect. Our friend had the Shrimp Scampi and he thoroughly enjoyed it. The restaurant is clean and offers comfortable and spacious seating and pleasant decor. The staff were extremely friendly and efficient. We will be back and we hope you will go, as well. They have 2 additional spaces for groups and special occasions and they have a step down lounge adjacent to the bar with tvs going - perfect for watching the game! Please go! You won't be disappointed!

    I saw this restaurant on an Instagram post and the food looked really good so we had to try it…read more We started with the spinach artichoke dip and that was delicious! We also ordered a regular pepperoni pizza. The pizza was really cheesy, which I loved but I think it could have stood to be in the oven a couple more minutes because the center was a little too soggy. But the outer crust was nice and crisp. I ordered the tortellini bolognese. The pasta was cooked nicely but the sauce did not taste like traditional bolognese sauce. It tasted like regular meat sauce. That being said, I enjoyed the taste of the sauce but it was not worth the 20 dollar price, especially since it wasn't even bolognese. The service was nice. Our waitress was attentive and since we were the only ones there at the time, our food came out pretty quick! The space itself was clean and felt homey. Would have loved some Italian music but we enjoyed ourselves either way. All in all, this place was ok, not great but definitely better than some other Italian places I've been. With a few improvements, their food could be really great!
