“So far I have tried different dishes and all of them are so good! The ceviche so delish, it has a kick of spice, but enough to taste the flavor of the fish. If you are fan of octopus, as for the one that is grilled, so tender. What you see here is a Leche de Tigre that the wonderful chef Efren made for us. You can not miss this spot at McAllen, TX”

“Came here for the first time and tried the pork belly ramen—it was really good! The pork was super tender and juicy, and the broth was in its point. I can’t wait to come back and try the pizzas a la leña. The place was nice and clean, and the staff was very friendly. The only thing I’d suggest is to offer more options for drinks like lemonade, tea, aguas frescas! ✨ not a big fan of bottled drinks, but having the Mexican sodas was ?”

Indian • $
“The server was a really nice and kind of shy, but really sweet and polite. Ordered two samosas, and they came with a nice chutney. The mango lassi was really thick, creamy, rich. The butter chicken I ordered was also very flavorful and rich gravy. ORDER THE GARLIC NAAN! It's really great! I like that on the other side on the building there's a store with all kinds of south Asian groceries and things you wouldn't find in a regular store. It was a great opportunity to stock up on frozen parantha, frozen samosas and lots of spices. The prices are a bargain that you won't find anywhere else. It's far from where I live, but worth the drive 100%. I'll always come back here for the great food, friendly people and great prices!”

“The staff was kind, the restaurant was a vibe and man, the food was so good!!!!
I tried
the cucumber salad- very flavorful (but still very refreshing!)
The veggie crispy spring rolls - crisped to perfection!
The lettuce wraps- so good, it was completely eaten before I could get a pic! Definitely my fave appetizer of the night! 10/10 highly recommend!
As a plant based girlie, I tried the fried rice (without egg/ green onion). I did add some of the sesame sauce from the cucumber salad on top, which made it chefs kiss to the power of 2! This was my first time here and I’m obsessed.
For 3 people, 4 appetizers, 3 drinks, 3 entrees, and 2 soups, it was $101! That’s not bad pricing at all!! (Yea, we’re big backs)
Vegetarian options: Pretty good vegetarian menu, with three different entree options. Most other dishes have the option to have tofu as your protein. I got the tofu fried rice and it was delicious!
Parking: Located in McAllen
Kid-friendliness: This particular location seems a little up scale, which felt find for a teenager, but I didn’t see a kids menu personally.
Wheelchair accessibility: This place is wheelchair accessible!”

“If you’re in McAllen, TX, SALT - New American Table is an absolute must-visit! Knowing Chef Delgado’s dedication to the community and his efforts to support local food banks, I was excited to try his renowned cuisine. Dining there with my daughter was a unique, unforgettable experience—a true journey of flavors from start to finish.
Each dish, from appetizers to dessert, was crafted with incredible attention to flavor and presentation. Sitting by the kitchen was a treat, allowing us to watch the team work and interact closely with our amazing server, Hugo. We were well taken care of by the chef and his team, who ensured every moment was special. I’ll be making the 2.5-hour journey back to McAllen soon for another visit!”

Desde hace mucho tiempo estaba buscando unos tacos muy buenos y los encontré, excelente servicio desde que me atendieron en el teléfono, súper accesibles, me hicieron delivery a mi casa y de igual manera el chofer nos atendió excelentemente bien (Héctor) y llegó calientito todo. Tienen un sazón delicioso muy difícil de encontrar en el valle! Denles una oportunidad y no se arrepentiran”

“I recently visited this IHOP and it was an amazing experience from start to finish!!! The staff was welcoming and friendly, and the service was quick and attentive. Management was AMAZING. The menu offered a wide variety , making it tough to choose LOL , but I went with their pancakes they were heavenly! fluffy, golden, and perfectly cooked. I also tried their chicken and waffles a separate occasion and again PERFECT. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed breakfast or brunch. I will definitely be returning and I highly recommend coming to this specific Ihop.”

“Houston Taco Palenque was awesome! Great food, but for being almost empty, they took so long to serve the food. And at this location, you get a vibrating disc to let you know when to go pick up your food, unlike the Macallen location you have a seat with a number and they take your food to the table. The 4 stars for service is for the time it took for them to prepare the order.”

“We were immediately greeted by the manager and wait staff upon entering the restaurant. The restaurant is very clean and well organized. As for the food it was fresh and tasted great!

“It was a great day, Until.
I woke up the next morning.
The service is really nice and the food must have some drugs in it, otherwise why is it so addictive?
And it was funny how the poster came down hitting just the outer plate of a customer's meal while he stood still enjoying the show in slow motion. I was surprised he didn't jump while eating his McNuggets.
Kid-friendliness: I went with my wife and our five month old. They have electric connections at most of the tables, so we even hook our kettle to boil some water to feed our baby.”

“Dave's Hot Chicken is an absolute must-visit! From the moment you step into the location, you're hit with the mouth-watering aromas of fried chicken, and the excitement only grows as you peruse their menu.
The star of the show is undoubtedly the chicken. I tried the two-piece tender combo, and I was blown away by the flavor and the perfectly crispy texture. The chicken was juicy, succulent, and packed with just the right amount of heat.”

Service is extremely fast and my order is always correct. HIGHLY recommend this place over Tropical Smoothie. If looking for my recommendation for a Shake. My go to is the Marble Chip with cold brew base! Delicious and energizing shake that I love to pair with their cran-pecan energy bites.”
Food Court • $
“We have been here a few times, mostly we go for Ronin Noodle, their ramen is pretty damn good. Usually I get the Minato Spico Miso (ribeye ramen with a spicy kick), opted for the Osaka Fried rice this time which is also a winner with its ribeye mixed fried rice.
In combination we like to get Spicy Edemame from Sticky Rice Sushi, which has been by far my favorite edemame in the 956 area, as well as their Passion Tea which has hibiscus, orange peel, rose hip and of course passion fruit for a sweet refreshing drink.
Lastly, if youre craving pizza try out Pizzeria di Soria. You cannot go wrong with a classic pepperoni with that pizza oven toastiness that just brings an added flavoring you typically dont get from fast food pizza places.”

“I love coming here with girlfriend. The rolls are the best but the two times I have had to order to go have not been great. Once right as they were open for about 30 minutes already I was put on hold for 15 minutes as I waited for someone to help. The second time being today I ordered online and when I arrived an item was missing due to being out of stock. Instead of calling and letting me know so I can replace it, they just deducted it. So I had to order the replacement there and wait another 20 minutes as the other food grew cold. Please work on this.”

“Fajita & sausage, 2 meat plate with 2 sides is my favorite. They have Ribs, chicken, beans, rice, potato salad, you can't go wrong nor will you regret picking up a meal to take home.”

“If you live in the Rio Grande Valley, you have probably been to this restaurant. It is local food at relatively low prices, and it is open 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. Remember that this is a small town, not a big city, so staying open all night is unusual. We tried it a couple of times. We ordered bean tacos, egg tacos, and coffee. It was good Mexican food. They have a breakfast combo that is very popular: 2 tacos plus coffee for about $5. We went through the drive-through window. The service was friendly and relatively fast.”

“Steak was cooked perfectly. Brussel sprouts were very good! Service was top-notch. The only negative was that the light fixture sconce at our table was filthy. A little deep cleaning, and I'd give this place 5 stars.”

“It is a place for adults although they allow minors to enter, the place is not suitable, since the girls who serve are in very little clothing.
The food was very good, I really liked the green sauce, I ordered the chicken tacos, the salad and some nachos.
It has many screens to watch the games.”

“Came to celebrate a huge party weeks ago almost a month w/ 20 people, didn't expect to have all of our friends to show up & service was awesome! Ms. Tabatha, I think her name was , she's the server with a full sleeve tattoo. She was on top of all of our drinks and didn't stress one bit! This woman was all smiles and cracking jokes making us feel welcome for such a big party on her own.”

“My burger was delicious. My wife's chicken sandwich was delicious as well. Only bad thing was the chips for the spinach artichoke dip. They were way too salty. Only have Pepsi products. Kind of disappointed. Service could have been better as the young man got my drink order wrong. Atmosphere was nice. Table was sticky even after we cleaned it. Rest of restaurant appeared to be clean.”

“I really like biscuits and sausage gravy and I like omelettes. But the concept of an omelette containing biscuits and gravy - WOW! With sides of great hash browns and fresh fruit. Mmmmm..... . . . . . . Best breakfast I can remember. As a bonus, easy in and out at 4100 N 10th st McAllen, with lots of parking.”

“Big suggestion for the owner of this restaurant:: You can entice more patrons to rent the back room for an event with the occupancy at least 50 to 60 if you fixed the rest room and make it look decent, clean and new because it's was too dingy when I attended an event in that area. I'm sure you'll make more money if it's clean and descent. I bowl didn't even flushed and as I opened, it's full of floating stool that made me nauseous and won't flush. No wonder the person I followed could not flush even if she tried because "it's out of order". From then on we used the restroom outside. I almost vomited the food I ate. Please renovate it so it will look like new.”

“I live in Alice, I went to this place because I saw their place in u-tube, I am glad I did because their tortillas are almost as good as the ones my mother used to make. My wife ate nopalitos and cheese cordita and she said it was the most delicious she has ever tasted. I just hope the owner realizes the kind of cooks that he or she has because these are the best kind of chefs, they learned either from their parents or grandparents or both. My compliments to the cooks and if I were your boss I would give you a raise.”

Chicken • $
“Dave's Hot Chicken is an absolute must-visit! From the moment you step into the location, you're hit with the mouth-watering aromas of fried chicken, and the excitement only grows as you peruse their menu.
The star of the show is undoubtedly the chicken. I tried the two-piece tender combo, and I was blown away by the flavor and the perfectly crispy texture. The chicken was juicy, succulent, and packed with just the right amount of heat.”
