Solid Mexican food with standout appetizers and a great atmosphere!This spot inside La Plaza Mall offers decent Mexican food, but what really shines here are the appetizers. The grilled panela cheese served with fresh corn and flour tortillas was absolutely delicious--melty, flavorful, and a perfect way to start the meal. Their selection of fresh salsas and crispy chips also stood out, adding great variety and spice to the experience.When we visited on a Tuesday night, there was live music, which made for a lively and enjoyable atmosphere. Plus, the restaurant has plenty of seating, making it a great option for large groups. If you're shopping at the mall and looking for a good bite in a fun setting, this is definitely worth checking out!

Ambiance is awesome. Staff is attentive. We ordered the potatoes for an appetizer and they were flavorful and cooked to perfection! The chips and salsa with a side of refried beans, amazing. I order the costillas and they were like beef jerky. But to be fair, I ordered them medium well. But they were more like super extra well done. Charro beans were delicious. We got the sampler for dessert and it was amazing! Also ordered the cucumber agua Fresca but it wasn't fun in appearance and was just okay. Won't be ordering this again.Overall a great experience!

SOOO sad I didn't take any pictures, but this place was amazing. I tried the poblano pasta with chicken & their lemonade, I loved it. Decided to sit outside and it was wonderful. The waiter was great. Overall really great spot.

Having eaten at the location in Laredo a few times, I was eager to eat at this spot during May 2024. This establishment is located inside the Las Palmas shopping mall. We sat at the bar and had some excellent service. We started with their chips, salsas, and dip. The standard setup is some smoky red salsa along with a bean dip - the beans have somewhat of a chorizo flavor to them and are absolutely delicious. I recommend asking for their avocado salsa to have, as well. That magic green sauce, though. I had my usual order of Enchiladas Callejeras, which were amazing as always. They enchiladas are stuffed well with Mexican cheese, and heavily topped with the same. It gets a little loud in here as the place fills up with mall shoppers and kids, but it still would be nice enough for a date night. It is a bit more elegant inside than most mall restaurants. Definitely it is a great place to check out when in the area.

The food was good except the Fajita meat was tough and hard to cut and eat. Costa Messa has the best Fajitas. Our server, Baruch, was excellent. The hostess could have done better. At first we were offered a table by the kitchen door, it was 3 pm and the place was empty, so I pointed to another table and we sat there. Prices were about the same as other places. Didn't see any specials though. I'll go back but I won't be in a rush.

Our company had a large dinner here with 15 or so employees so we reserved a private room. We probably had 6 different servers taking care of us and they were great.We ordered family style and basically had multiple large platters of tons of things to share. I'm not even sure what it was because our manager ordered in Spanish and the food and drinks started coming!We had a pile of meat that included ribs, steak, and shrimp. We had large bowls of rice, tortillas, and chips.The drinks were pretty good and large enough for the price. The mariachi band was fun to enjoy and they had multiple large TVs around the restaurant. Overall, clean dining room, friendly staff, and authentic food. We will be back!

We make it a point to come here whenever we're in McAllen from Houston. There's always something new and creative to taste. We've had exceptional experiences with the great food. Mole is off the chain with a bit of kick (spice) and the Caldo Tlalpeño is flavorful and plentiful with chicken. Our server Ramon Martinez was very attentive to our service needs.
