“riquisimo vale la pena visitarlo“

“I had ordered a slush, and it came out wrong 2 times. The male carhop with long hair however was extremely kind and apologetic and offered to pay it for me but I declined. While, I can’t deny that it’s a bit troubling at times to order, the service and staff are undeniably trying their best.“

“One of my favorite restaurants in McAllen“

“Friendliness and respect is not common among most diners, yet here at Dennys San Juan, Texas of The Rio Grande Valley Of Southern Texas it’s very much included! What’s the best way to start,A meal? I would say is to be included and made felt like family! That’s what you Shure would find- here at Denny’s, along with a hot, ready,made meal just the way you order!“

“I’ve been coming to Siempre Natural for the past two years, about once a week, and during that time the service has consistently been excellent. Micaela, in particular, has always been incredibly pleasant and helpful with our orders. Her personal attention and warm demeanor have truly made each visit enjoyable. That kind of customer service is rare and has always set Siempre Natural apart.

However, I’m writing this review with mixed feelings. In the past, our order was called out by name, which added a warm, personal touch. Recently, we've noticed that orders are now called by a number. That personal, attentive touch that Siempre Natural was known for seems to be fading, and I hope that’s not the direction it’s headed.

The food is still great—no complaints there—and I appreciate the opportunity to share this feedback. I’m only pointing this out because I’ve genuinely enjoyed my experience over the years and would love to see that special attention to the customer return.

Thank you for reading.“

“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.“

“I recommend La Eloteca when you’re craving that “elote en vaso” fix. I like that you have several topping options to enjoy that treat. However, folks.. Please have your food prep staff/workers change gloves after handling money or touching the checkout screen. The same checkout screen your customers touch. I was so turned off that I had to remind the female worker to change her gloves after she handled cash, the screen, then touched the opening of the bottle where the crema and mayo come out of. That’s cross contamination. She needs to retake that food handlers course again.“

“Awesome place and you need to try it. It's an expensive place, but it doesn't have to be. If you go on Mondays, you can get several appetizers for not much money. Mario, the guitar player was incredible, his style made it such a great, chill/vibe/mood. The bartender, Brandon, also made it a really enjoyable evening, he's a very talented young man. Everything we tried was phenomenal and I look forward to coming back!“

“Muy bueno y lugar agradable“

“comida rica y productos de calidad en su tienda“

“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 will definitely visit again. The service, food and cocktails were all outstanding.“

“Muy rico, tranquilo, la atención excelente por parte de nuestra mesera Lety.“

“Absolutely loved it, can’t wait for the next time I go back“

“Ok. So we went to Red Lobster to try their new seafood boil bag. We've been loyal Mr Crabbys seafood boil bag customers for 5 years. Finding really great seafood outside of NH is hard. So hard..... Until now. The RL boil bag is far superior. Here's why: 1. The seasoning is just right. Choice of garlic & butter or Cajun. Got the Cajun- because that's the only seasoning in a proper boil bag that's acceptable. 1a. The seasoning is far better as it's not drowning in oil- causing constant crab splatters. 1b. The seasoning does not overpower the taste of the seafood like Mr Crabbys does. You can actually taste the lobster- shrimp and crab. 2. The bag comes with 6 more shrimp (12 total) than Mr Crabbys 6. The lobster tail is split fully in half rather than just slashed down the top spine- making it difficult at Mr Crabbys to pull the meat out in one swipe. (That's what she said) 3. The bag does NOT come with sausage if you order the Mariners Bag. However it can be added. Here's the closer- it's REAL Andouille sausage- not kielbasa. Me Crabbys has been using kielbasa the last few times we went. If you know the difference in flavor- you'll understand why this matters. 4. I wore my bib cuz I'm accustomed to having the food drip all over me as I crack and work for my reward. It was not needed. Even with dumping the bag into the tray- it was not over saturated in oil- but rather delicately seasoned with butter. Over all- we have a new Sunday Boil Bag date location. I never thought I'd stray from Mr Crabbys- but shockingly- Red Lobster has become the affair worth having. They did good with hiring this new CEO who brought this brain child to my beloved Maine lobster Locale here in the Deep South. If yall see this- please- from this coastal New England girl trying to get a nut in the RGV.....don't ever drop this from the menu. Sincerely Your newest fan.“

“But not the drive-thru... it's always been a good restaurant, but the morning drive-thru is disappointing. It took 32 minutes for a sandwich, I had to move to the parking lot and go in and get it. (The sandwich and coffee were good, but cost $13.10.)“

“I've never met them, but through some business dealings I learned that the owner of this place is, I think, a 2nd generation restaurant owner and from everything I've seen and heard, they are really good people. The food is great quality and the prices are totally decent. This place is definitely worth a try.“

“Me encanta y es muy saludable y aparte las chicas son muy amables. Todo en excelencia.“

“This is my new favorite snack place, they don't gouge you on prices the food was fresh and tasty , I ordered a he nachos with extra jalapenos, small elote cup, and a cherry rasps fornall three it was around $8 but i left a tip because the service was that good. Highly reccomend.“

“Go there all the time. Desserei always takes care of me. Never fails to be attentative to me and my friends. Always there when we’re ready to order another round. Pool is always a blast there and the music is always on beat to get the crowd going.“

“The fideo soup does not taste how it used to. It has too much chicken in it now and taste very sour like Old chicken or too much onion ??‍♀️. I think the soup sometimes is from the day before because it forms a jello consistency. I hope it gets better because its my favorite salad place when I visit the valley.“

“Ranc House Burgers in Mission is the best place to unwind and eat great food on a friday night. Famous Amos is the best server and we look for him everytime we come here. Great service, great food and the best Margarita drinks and Palomas available. Famous Amos makes our experience here 10x better and the live music is awesome.“

“The service was excellent, Tony was great. The atmosphere was top notch. The food was outstanding. It was our anniversary and they treated us with a card, sprinkled hearts on the table and a complimentary piece of red velvet cheesecake. We will be returning.“

“Felicidades Rodolfo y a tu esposa , es para el publico o solo socios del club“

“This is our third time here. The wait to be seated was 15 min, which was fine. The waiter and I couldn't hear each other. There were so many tvs going with different programs. One is enough? The service was great, and the food came out in a timely manner even though it was a busy Friday night.
We ordered:
1. Queso dip - good, but order with no tortillas and more chips.
2. Burger - good as expected
3. Cobb salad with shrimp- good, but the shrimp were overcooked.
4. Lava cake - the best“

“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.“

“las alitas bonnles el sweet habanero“

“Rudy’s serves good BBQ with juicy brisket, savory turkey, and delicious sides. The green chili stew is my go to on cold days. It’s a hearty stew with potato and beef. Huge baked potatoes. The ambiance is casual and welcoming. Highly recommended for satisfying BBQ cravings. Drive thru is available.“

“I would only recommend the burgers . Everything else didn’t even have a morsel of salt . Onion rings were too greasy . Fries bland. Corn dog was just a boiled weenie with batter . Fried chicken was juicy but AGAIN bland , But the burgers were definitely 10/10“

“Best Reuben I’ve ever had!!“

“It was so delicious, thanks and God Bless You!! ✌🏼😃👍🏼“

“Amazing food and service!!!“

“My daughter and her school went on a field trip to main event pharr and while at the location she and her friend were approached by a man and asked my 12 year old middle school daughter if a little girl that was running around by herself was her daughter and was kinda creepy about it. After he approached them he was always about 2 games down from them and kept watching them. My daughter called my wife and told her about it and I called the location and spoke to a manager told him what was going on at his store and got my info and my daughters info and that he was going to get in contact with my daughter to find out who the person was. With in 15 minutes our daughter called my wife that she was already spoken to by the manager and as soon as my daughter hung up with my wife the manager called me and told me that they had already made contact with this person that was with his wife and family at a birthday party and that he was being watched by security and staff. Thank you to the management and staff that were on duty and took the matter seriously to keep my daughter and others safe and being quick to respond to a potential emergency situation.“

“The food was excellent and our server was awesome! Celebrating me with a few friend. May is my birthday month. so I should be there with other friends celebrating life.“

“Muy rico café y la atención muy bien“

“I love this Italian restaurant. A little pricey but food portions are so generous, fresh and delicious. Their bread needs a revisit. It does not match the rest of the menu for flavor or freshness. I have several favorites but love the Pancetta Carbonara.“

“Every visit never disappoints. Food is great and so is the staff! Mike Leo checks on us to make sure everything is going smoothly, and our bartender Juan is amazing. He’s attentive and the service is fast. I strongly recommend spending your happy hours here or a little weekend night out. You’re guaranteed to have a fun time!“

“the valentines tacos were so good and the heart churros as well. Our server Cynthia was kind and her service was a 10/10 😮‍💨 had such a good attitude🫶🏻“

“I was very disappointed so many items have been removed from the menu , my favorite chicken fried chicken is gone & the mashed pots, no more gravy, what??“

“Food and service is good!“
