“One of my favorite restaurants in McAllen”
“Loved the vibe! Great music and ambiance. Great service with Ricardo!”
“It’s not a large venue, but the atmosphere inside is very friendly and warm. This is my first visit but walking through the door, you can tell the distance a great place. Most of the tables were full of people laughing, talking, and watching the big screen my server was very prompt and I needed a little time to read the menu. I selected the Philly cheesesteak and I added jalapeños, which I literally really like. Also ordered the side order fries, but they had other more healthier options. I’m just a sucker for homemade fries. The food came in a rapid manner the sandwiches. Excellent the chicken tender, the cheese melody gooey the jalapeños have been sautéed with the peppers and onions, very tasty. The bun was a good quality with good texture and taste. The fries were hot freshly cooked and tasty as well. The service here is warm and friendly and very attentive to the guests. The atmosphere is very warm and neighborly as most of the patrons I saw seem to be regulars. if it had a bar I could’ve stayed all night, maybe it’s a good thing it doesn’t! I would highly recommend a visit. The menu has a nice selrction and I’m sure that all the other products are as good as one I had.
Parking: Park adjacent to the front door or in the multi tenant parking lot.”
“The food was amazing! Hannah was my server and she did a great job!”
“Delicious Korean food and the service was wonderful. I've been here multiple times and all the food I have tried has been great! The staff and chef are always friendly and on-top of customer service.
I recommend this restaurant and hope it continues to flourish. RGV needs more diverse food options and I'm glad this is available!”
“Want to thank Joe, our waiter, for great service and great conversation!
If you are in the area, stop by and sit in his section. You won't be disappointed!
Thanks Joe!”
“one of the best sandwiches I've ever had 10 out of 10 surely gonna recommend this to everyone”
“First time bringing my wife, very good presentation, really tasty, perfect portions, good service. I’ll bring my nieces next.”
“Very nice place for a fancy street food experience. Staff were very accommodating for a special request for pancakes in the evening for a kiddos birthday. The ramen was awesome, the bao buns. Pork belly all the way! We are just visiting briefly and are glad we found this place!”
“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!”

“Celebrated our anniversary with one of the best meals we've ever had. Everything was super delicious and Beto was a phenomenal waiter. Ambiance was perfecto❤️Thank you for a wonderful evening!!”
“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”

“The Santa Fe Steakhouse lived up to it's reputation as a 1st class restaurant experience. The interior very much is reminanicient of an o p New Mexico Adobe building with tasteful decorations. My wife had shrimp and a twice baked potato in a crust. I had calamari. Their's had chilies and a rather spicy sauce but was delicious. My main course was a rack of lamb, done to perfection with fingerling potatoes green beans and poached peaches. Truly a fine dining experience. Our guests both had ribeye steaks and they looked delicious. I finished up with a 10 year old port. Mario, our waiter, was very attentive but not obtrusive. Ask for him, he'll take great care of your party. My only reservation is that we came for our 20th anniversary. We did let the restaurant know on our reservation. They did nothing special. Had we gone to the Patio on Guerra they would have had a card and special dessert. Nonetheless this was a fine meal in a great atmosphere. We would definitely recommend it for a great meal.”
“It is a delight ? but it is very expensive ?? We have only visited the restaurant twice because our budget is not enough . But to be honest, the second time we went they changed the seasoning and the chef's hand was excellent ???. TOTAL DELIGHT 100% recommended.”
“Excelente noche y estuvimos muy relajados y festejando”
“We've gone to Bubba's 33 twice in the last 10 days and the food was excellent both times. The chef did an awesome job cooking the cod and the side salad is almost a meal in itself with a taste different from any salad I have ever had. This is our new favorite restaurant!”
“su atención del personal en general su variedad en platillos deliciosos y lo mejor de todo el lugar es confortable cálido y muy bonito felicidades”
“La Doble M is the bomb!! Great service, great food and the atmosphere has been excellent!!! Every time we have been for dinning it has been an amazing time!! Thanks Grupo Mendez for bringing a great project like yours to the valley. Much needed!! Looking forward for your next project, coming soon!!!”
“We cannot recommend enough! Chantelle & Ethan at the bar were so welcoming and made the absolute best recommendations for both food & drinks. The homemade pasta is something you dream of.”
“SALT is a go to for my wife and I. She loves the duck and the Mac and cheese, and I usually get the pork shank, fried chicken or the filet. We have never had a bad experience. We just went for our anniversary and the service was great! Highly recommend.”
“I understand that it's a mom and pop shop, so don't get me wrong. Food was really good, but I felt a little pricey. Definitely worth the food experience.”
“Came to BJ’s today and waiter Marco Gomez was the best. Manager Mr. Gonzalez came to create us at our table and that was so nice of him. Very good experience eating at this restaurant. Will highly recommend BJ’s to everyone.”

She greeted us with a warm smile and was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, Chrislin’s excellent service and professionalism were evident in every interaction. We left the restaurant thoroughly impressed and grateful for her exceptional hospitality. Highly recommend dining here and asking for Chrislin!”

“Wow, wow and wow to my favorite I-Hop Restaurant located at address 4321 N.10th St. McAllen,TX. 78504. I stopped by on the early Tuesday morning around 2:45am with a nice and delicious meal as I usually do in the early am since I work my job and workout at the gym afterwards of each of my shifts! This usually works up my appetite for breakfast or a light meal at my favorite place on earth at I-Hop! Anyways I picked this morning to order a burger and fries since I had only eaten one time early on Monday and was just some buffalo wings from the grocery store. So eventually my A1C blood sugar level dropped critically while I was waiting on an Lyft ride share to pick me up at the Denny’s just west of my side of town so that I can come eat at my favorite restaurant I-Hop where I was warmly and friendly greeted by the best little morning crew probably ever assembled in the history of I-Hop history! I was greeted by a young lady named Sayanne Rodriguez and the manager Kevin De La Sancha who were both so welcoming and pretty but sweet and very thankful for my visit and service! Which you really don’t get to experience in restaurants or the fast food industries now a day’s here the Valley otherwise known as the (956) area where folks are known for being extremely rude and disrespectfully impatient! Oh no this small crew were very friendly,professional and very knowledgeable of there brand and positions! I was very impressed with this young ladies knowledge of the menu and her ability to refer e to the best burger and fries that I’ve eaten in the last 10 year’s of my life! Kevin the manager is talented beyond his means and his knowledge because prepared my burger in record breaking time due to me being exhausted ,drained and starving after my Pre-Diabetes low blood sugar attack in which the management had to call 911 to come and check on me at a quarter to 2am before the night clubs. across the street from their establishment closed and let the usual intoxicated and impaired parties of people most frequently come in and get sick and cause them problems’ They remember me as a regular customer from back in the day until I discovered that I-Hop was much,much better and superior to Denny’s! However McAllen P.D my favorite and fellow Law Enforcement group supreme and everyone at the restaurant by responding with two of McAllen’s finest P.D in Blue showed up and and showed out so positively with concerned and respectfully realizing and recognizing that I’m an Veteran’s child of the Vietnam Nam War Hero! They responded in the best way possible by awakening me up by simply saying hello ma’am are you okay Mrs? I immediately opened my eyes and said oh yes, it’s just my A1C that dropped because I’m Pre-Diabetic and I’m also am Hypoglycemic which is when your blood auger )A1C drops often and is a really dangerous! So people what I’m really trying to say to you is please have respect for your neighborhood and community restaurants as you patronize them and have much respect for them and your local and state Law Enforcement when you interact with them because they are all so important and special to us because they really do serve and protect the community! Please do visit this I-Hop restaurant because it’s an experience that you have to come out and witness! You will never forget this type of customer service nor will you ever experience such delicious,delightful and excellent service as this young Lady Sayanna and Manager Kevin are a dynamic duo of a small team servicing McAllen’s Finest McAllen P..D and the whole McAllen Community and South Texas (956) Area also known the Rio Grand City or the Rio Grand Valley!So please Come on over and try some very nice delicious breakfast , lunch or dinner and witness what I did this morning! I am also proud to be one of I-Hop’s Rewards members!!’ Until next time people this is Mrs.Bridgett Lenel signing off!”
“Stopped at this location after a long shift, I can tell you I was just thinking of getting the pancakes. However, after meeting my brother at the location I decided on having the sirloin tips a favorite of mine that I have not gotten in a while. We placed the order and my brothers fish and shrimp was yummy! Mine though, I was disappointed. The portion was smaller than what I have been served in the past, but I didnt mind at all what I did not like was the flavor. It had a reheated taste to it and it some were well done or med well when I had asked for medium. The manager did allow for me to swap out my dish for something else. I truly appreciate the discretion and the quick turn out time. I am one very happy customer, will definitely return to this location.”
“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.”
“Honestly this is the best Whataburger I've gone to. Hopefully I don't jinx it. I've only ordered drive through or curbside but either way my food comes out hot and not a single item missed. Which says alot because other restaurants don't give the ketchups(the best part of the order). I even asked for pepper packets and it wasn't forgotten. Thank you!”
“Goto meal, of course! Number 1 meal came through. Fresh greens, perfectly cooked meat, grilled onions, and jalapeños. Perfect meal for the person that wants something that is great tasting and does not break the bank. Place does need some cleaning up more regularly, but it was not bad.”
“Place is nice, its clean and not too cold. Friendly enough staff. Says locally owned. Got my order correct, a sweet tea. Lots of single star got their order wrong commdnts so ...?
Seems to be very automated. Loud constant beeping the whole time I was their.”
“Alex took amazing care of us. I came with my wife, and my mom and it was just a Monday- but we had a BLAST!!! We felt taken care of at a level of care that you don't see anymore. Yes, the rolls were awesome, yes the Franz roll is delicious- this is obvious! But Alex showed care, and made us yearn to return. She offered personal favorites, and kept my guests happy. I love my momma and my wife and my homie Alex added a nice touch. I'll be back asap. Also try the Franz roll. Just do it. Do it.”
“Had a great experience here at Eddy’s & what made it even better was having Amarantha as our waitress! She has a friendly demeanor and was always with a positive attitude. When we come back we hope you take care of us again. Other than that, place is very clean and music was on point!”

“We checked out the new coffee shop in McAllen. Staff is very friendly and helpful, the coffee was great, we really enjoyed our visit! Sweet spot with nice patio!”
“Excellent service, the coffee is at another level, it is truly premium coffee, you can see that they know about coffee! It's definitely not what you buy elsewhere, it's much better. I really like the Cezanne Chicken Sandwich and the frap mix and for dessert the banana bread, delicious, not cloying, very balanced. And if you want to meet local artists, go on Friday, you won't regret it!
If you are looking for great quality coffee, friendly service and a super cool and artistic atmosphere to relax or to work with your laptop this is it!”
“Just stopped because I was really hungry, they served! Absolutely amazing flavored meat with the tacos. I ordered the Matamoros for me and my spouse. It came with some beans in a small container and baked potato filling. Their red salsa is good ?. And they have aguas frescas.”
“Sus tortas que están deliciosas y todo lo que preparan muchas gracias ala cocineras que dios la bendiga”
“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.”
“Clean environment, amazing service and great music! I personally love coming for their juices and shakes but you can never go wrong with anything on the menu. 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.”
“Excellent food (snacks) and exceptional service! Fruit cocktails (cut up fruits) customizable. Lime, salt, chile, and/or chamoy. Nachos. Ice cream. Frozen paletas. Unique flavors. Mexican snacks. Drive-through or dine-in/pick up. Parking is busy on yoga nights/sessions.”
“Dropped my food on a table and was pretty bummed out that I did that. One of the workers there offered me to get me another meal for free since I just bought it I declined the offer and started to clean up after myself. Later they bring a free meal for the inconvenience. Customer service was on point and the atmosphere was great”
“Ordered a sincronizada and tacos de bistec. Do need to say, they were so good. Definitely will not be my last time there. Will say better than the two taco places near by.”

“Great place for downtown rock music as an alternative to the club scene. The staff is always helpful and interested in getting you what you need. The billiards area is small but if you get there early enough you get yourself a decent place to hang out with friends. Having three bars makes it easy to get a drink anywhere in this venue.
Parking: Don't expect to find parking near this place. Find yourself a parking garage or find some street parking nearby.”

“Went Mon. Evening to take advantage of BOGO Mom's meatballs & spaghetti special. We noticed wine bottles were 50% OFF & all 3 couples decided to order 1 bottle of wine each couple. We were shocked when Mario, Assist. Mgr., informed us we couldn't order under both of the specials. We told him we didn't see that indicated for wine special. He told us he would allow it this time. We were flabbergasted. Thankfully, our server, Oden provided great service & our meals & hot bread were EXCELLENT!”
“Nice & nostalgic visit, restaurant was clean and inviting the food was served hot and delicious. Only slight was the refreshments, all offerings on this day were flat and not refreshing - good thing for water & ice but hopefully better on another visit on a different day.”

“The manager is welcoming and recognized us the second time we came in. They provided the most amazing service and even exchanged my drink when a fly landed on it. The food was so tasty and the presentation is of a high caliber restaurant. We ordered multiple things and each had a very beautiful presentation as well as tasty. Good for date night it’s in a second story but it’s worth it. Wife and I had a good date night. this is a hidden gem.”
“They play and sing good music to dance to, Live music, salsa, cumbia and norteño banda (Friday) I don't know about the other days. The place is not very big but it has a dance floor. outside patio”
“It’s good and all but the service takes long when there’s too many people, I’ve waited around 30-45 min for the food, atmosphere is great people mind there business , it’s a good place to celebrate birthdays they allow you keep your personal cake or dessert in coolers never seen that before, definitely coming back soon !”
“The service was impeccable, with attentive and generous employees making the experience delightful. I couldn't get enough of the Tonkatsu Don; it was perfect. It's a definite must-try :)"”
“How is this place so good?! Seriously, how? Located in the middle of a grocery store, this absolutely kicks the butt of most barbecue I have ever had. If I had to pick two items to get again, it would be the Texas torpedo and the fatty brisket. Everything was delicious and fresh, and the ordering process was very simple.”
“Howling Rabbits Beerworks is one of my favorite places to visit in McAllen, TX. From the vast selection of craft beers and cocktails, the delicious and creative dishes, everyone is sure to have a good time at this business. Lots of space, TVs, music & good vibes all around. It's the perfect spot to watch your favorite team or fighter and any sports related events. Highly recommended for people who like to have a good time surrounded by good people.”
“Great service, they gave me a birthday card it was a nice surprise. The food was better than expected, the beverages were good, but I think they were a little smaller than normal drink size.”

“Loved the pork ribs and everything else, friendly atmosphere, the peach cobbler is the best and homemade ice cream”
“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.”
“This an excellent spot. The drinks are done well. The tacos are delicious. The Bartenders are great to talk to and are attentive. Nothing but love comes from this group of people. The manager is a cool cat and works hard. The owner pours his heart and soul into this place with all he has. Come check it out!”
“Great service, we were offered a booth and I loved the the waitress thought about my kids, we were given fruit because my youngest was being fuzzy. The Alfredo pasta has been the best I’ve ever tried. Definitely will be back again. ♥️”

“Thank you so Much had a Great Birthday Celebration we were a Party of 10 and had Great Service and Our Cook made it even better Loving what he does which is giving People Great Service”
“I wish I could give 5 stars, but I believe that constructive criticism is necessary for modern businesses, especially in the restaurant and food service industry. While I wasn’t particularly impressed with the food overall, it was good, and others may have different experiences.
The BLT sandwich was excellent in my opinion, with a good portion and a generous amount of bacon. However, the Caramel Macchiato was disappointing—essentially just milk with a lot of caramel and whipped cream.
I will come back and try other items because the place deserves a second chance. However, please put a little more effort into the coffee; many people will appreciate it.”
“Me llevo una muy grata experiencia, la comida excelente, traidicional sabor mexicano, el servicio muy bueno, personal muy amable, un lugar limpio y agradable donde pasar un buen rato familiar, las margaritas son de lo mas destacado, aunque todo esta muy rico, para mi opinion personal, el mejor restaurante de comida mexicana en todo el Valle de Texas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“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.”
“I love ceviche and had never tried the ceviche pacifico. I should have just ordered the ceviche de pescado since the pacifico was just cucumber and mango. There was hardly any fish and shrimp, if any at all.”
“El mejor pollo asado Del Valle sabor inigualable”
“While there was a mix up on today’s order, I spoke to Helen and she was able to help me out resolve the issue. Today’s visit was much better than the other times. The female manager and staff were very welcoming. I placed my order and within 5 minutes my order was ready.”
“Aaron is a phenomenal employee and does whatever he can to take care of us every time we come. The store as a whole really takes care of us every time we come in to watch the UFC PPV. The food is great, but Aaron and the rest of the staff keep us coming back. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to watch the UFC fights.”
“The food was excellent, just like the menu photos. But the atmosphere feels empty or half-old and the waiter hardly stopped by the table to see if anything was offered.”

“Great food! Great service 😊 Marcos the manager was very helpful!”
“Went Mon. Evening to take advantage of BOGO Mom's meatballs & spaghetti special. We noticed wine bottles were 50% OFF & all 3 couples decided to order 1 bottle of wine each couple. We were shocked when Mario, Assist. Mgr., informed us we couldn't order under both of the specials. We told him we didn't see that indicated for wine special. He told us he would allow it this time. We were flabbergasted. Thankfully, our server, Oden provided great service & our meals & hot bread were EXCELLENT!”

“Came to eat their turkey dinner before Thanksgiving day. It was superb!! All the trimmings were delicious. Hillary and Leslie were wonderful, catering to all our needs. I would highly recommend this place. The atmosphere is so relaxing. Souvenirs are cute.”
“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.”
“Omg, these guys always show up when we're gettin our truck loaded & the hunger is just kicking im. A quarter leg of perfectly cooked & seasoned chicken & pasta with a cold coca cola & slice of garlic bread for $12...delivered by always cute ,cheerful & polite workers....& the food is on some gourmet level, even in my book! 10 stars, all the way!”
“They have the best Reuben sandwich available. Their current summer special of two medium sandwiches with drinks and chips is a bargain.”
“stopped in for lunch after arriving in town. Delinah was exceptional. She had a smile and attention to detail for menu items was pleasurable. It is nice to see someone excited to be working and enjoy the surroundings.”

“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.”

“First time here yesterday and I was a little nervous. Since it’s completely different food than what we are used to. BUT ITS DELICIOUS!!! I loved it!!! I’m literally going back today driving back from San Benito!!! 10 out of 10 highly recommend, and to top it off the staff is great!”
“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!”
“One of my favorite restaurants in McAllen”
