“We had such a wonderful experience here! The sushi was fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Our waitress, Emily, made the visit even better. She was extremely kind and attentive, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. She was also so sweet to our baby Scarlette, complimenting her and making us feel so comfortable as a family. Emily is such a nice and generous person, and her service really stood out. Thank you, Emily, for making our dinner special! 🩷”
“This is one of the finest if not the best deli in the Rio Grande valley. Their food is top notch. I've been there multiple times, had different subs each time and never had one i didnt like. The atmosphere is excellent. The service is polite attentive and keeps the drinks cold. I will always stop in of I'm in McAllen Tx.”
“I stopped by for the first time around 8 and had an amazing experience! Anthony provided outstanding service — he was friendly, knowledgeable, and made great suggestions for proteins, sauces, and toppings. Thanks to him, my bowl turned out perfect. Definitely coming back!”
“Great steak house with lively atmosphere. Lots of people. Piano playing and tgd best steaks. I had th filet wellington, cooked to perfection. Calamari excellent. Fried steak tips with guacamole not so good. Cesar salad not so good. Service very good.”
“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”

“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.”
“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!!!”
“I have lunch here periodically and today I came again. To which the restaurant manager asked, was I here 2 days ago, I said, Yes and they returned my AirPods, which I forgot about. I didn't even notice that I lost it. So many thanks to the waiter who saw this and returned it and to the manager who remembered me and brought my headphones.
Roy and Maresa thank you so much”
“Delicious food and great service. We had a child in our group with Celiac's disease and the server and kitchen staff were so helpful to assure us there was no gluten or cross contamination in any of the dishes we ordered. Very much appreciated!”

“No suelo calificar negocios, pero este lo amerita. 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 tend to order a large amount of tacos here and unlike other stores I have never gotten a mean look and my tacos are made full and fast. This store has become my go to when traveling to work in the mornings. Addedly, Carolina the store leader was awesome for taking over due to a lack of employees and had my order ready rapidly. Thank you.”

“Just had a fantastic lunch at Wa Gabose Korean Restaurant with my family! From the moment we walked in, we felt the warmth of hospitality. Kyu, the owner, was super attentive, stopping by our table to make sure we were enjoying our meal. 🥰 The staff was friendly, adding to the great vibe!
We kicked off our feast with delicious Korean dumplings, and we couldn't get enough of that amazing dipping sauce! For our mains, we savored the Chicken Ka Su, Beef Dolsot Bibimbap, and the mouthwatering Beef Korean Style Ribs. Each dish was packed with flavor, and the sides were fresh and tasty!
If you're looking for a cozy spot with delicious food and excellent service, I highly recommend Wa Gabose! Can't wait to go back!”
“Love the yummy food! I totally recommend for new, fresh food that is good for you! Kinda healthy, not heavy food. You must try!!! Always take my nieces and sister and everyone leaves super happy 😊 😋 The Valley totally needed a taste of delicious, Mediterranean food 👌”
“A very welcoming place for new customers. Imagine a small town where everybody knows each other like in Life Is Strange True Colors. That’s the type of vibe it gives. Loved the personalized quote they gave me with my cup !! Incredibly nice and genuine people. Gabe, Arianna and the owner, Ms. Kris. 10/10 customer service and tasty food, THEY ALSO HAVE CATS !!”
“Walked in right at closing (3pm) we started to leave because I hadn't realized when a server came out and said to come in, that it was 5 til 3pm and they would love to have us :) I've always loved their breakfast (if u visit must have their breakfast potatoes!) But today we had a light lunch; a tuna melt and a reuben with fries. Both are very generous portions. I was surprised to find they serve their tuna melt with a side of housemade, honey mustard. I tried the combo and loved it! For dessert, we had the apple crumble pie super delish! Don't sleep on their muffins soooo good! Service is always top notch, cant beat it!”
“Where are the music videos? I love this place but I don’t like to watch only sports. Bring the Music Videos back 😊”

“This is my first time visiting Texas and we decided to try this place out for breakfast. I can honestly say this place did not disappoint. To start the cafe de olla is amazing. I was going to ask for creamer to add in but the server told me to try it first then think about adding it in. Thank god he told me to try it first because it was delicious on its own and they serve it in a traditional Jarrito Mexicano. The food was amazing. I got the breakfast torta and it was delicious. My family got the enchiladas, chilaquiles, and omelette and they were very pleased. I also recommend the cucumber lemonade. Our server Enrique was extremely helpful with our order and very attentive. Overall his customer service and the food was amazing. I cannot recommend this place enough. If you are ever in McAllen you should stop by.”
“I will definitely visit again. The service, food and cocktails were all outstanding.”

“The dulce de leche coffee is delicious! Best option ever. Coffee pound cake is a good combo with house blend. I love that it is organic and the service is great. Vanessa explains all the options in a very professional manner and Alex is extremely helpful. Over all 100 percent responded.”
“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.”
“Great experience, mostly thanks to Frida my server, she was very attentive, and helpful with great recommendations. Knows her menu as she explained the questions I had. Tried the san manuel shripm tacos and a Patron taco as per suggestion and they definitely did not disappoint. The shrimp and ribeye were done great not over cooked and the miche with my seafood was savory and delicious. Well definitely be back soon. Very impressed ?”
“I ordered a combo with no fries, substitute cole slaw and a coke zero to avoid blood sugar issues. I was given a regular coke, so I went back and changed it out. Later I opened my box and saw no cole slaw and extra fries. Cane's is always so good and rarely screws up like this.”

“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.”
“Sever was a little rude but I don’t care, food was good! Except the pizza was a little soggy due to the amount of oil they used for it. But drinks and every else was good.”

“Service is friendly and fast. The food is good, it's a standard bar menu but it's good. I had their red ale which I enjoyed. As far as atmosphere, friendly, nice, clean, but OMG it's loud.”
“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!”
“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!”
“muy bonito lugar para visitar en mcallen la comida esta muy rica todo lo que provamos esta delicioso sus salmoin con vegetales super recomendado y steak tambien lo recomuiendo muy buen servicio superrrrr recomendado ;)”
“El Divino is one of our very favorite places to eat. The food and drinks are consistently excellent (since 2013!) and the restaurant is beautiful with a separate room for private functions. The fillet and Brussels sprouts are the best in McAllen and the burger is very good - it’s the dish visiting friends remember when we take them there. Make sure to ask for Jess, our favorite server, for a great dining experience. She always remembers our drink order, makes us feel so welcome, and is a huge part of why we keep coming back.”
“Todo delicioso, menudo y caldo tralpeño y excelente servicio al cliente, olvidamos el telefono y salieron corriendo entregarlo. Muchas gracias🙂”

“Huge fan of all the Asian markets in McAllen. It's nice to have access to something uncommon in most of the RGV. This is a great addition to that library, and has been so for a handful of years now. A nice stock of snacks and meats, with miscellaneous items that may pique your interest. Sort of a hidden gem, just across from the de dios store. Again, more of what we need, and more of what I want to see stay in the RGV forever.”
“It is expensive to dine here but worth the money! All the meat you can eat and the sausages are delicious”
“😍great food I eat here all the time food is always good. never disappointed”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”
“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.”
“Empezamos muy bien nuestro domingo, Nos encantó el lugar, muy limpio, acogedor, agradable. La comida deliciosa y muy sabrosa. Tuvimos muy buena suerte con la atención del mesero, felicidades Roberto y gracias por estar al pendiente. 100% recomendable”

“One of my friends decided on this spot and it couldn't have been better. Food was great, the atmosphere was very inviting, and the service by a young lady if I remember correctly her name is Jordan was just terrific.”
“Last night we had dinner. First we got there without reservation and the smiley hostess asked us if we wanted to sit on the bar, we said yes. The bar tender is a great guy, he works like crazy, smiling and taking care of business and customers. The food took a little long to come but it was delicious, we had Alfredo pasta and lasagna, both great taste. At the end tiramisu to go, it was really good. Clean, friendly and tasty place, We’ll go again!!!!”
“We had a great experience for my mom’s 84 birthday! Food was delicious and customer service was fast and friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant for everyone!”
“Come by and ask for Alondra for an above and beyond experience. Alondra's patience and friendly personality paired with the freshest food is worth every cent.”

“I popped in to watch NBA basketball and I'll be damned, Deportivo Toluca F.C. is playing Club America for the Liga MX Championship. To my surprise the Football ⚽ game was much better than the basketball. Predominantly Hispanic patrons obviously because of location but damn this is a fun place. The woman working are hot, the drinks are cold. Gentlemen, and ladies this is a must see if you are in the area, Viva Mexico!”
“the environment is not the same since the live band DKDA on Thursday is not there anymore they have some dude djing and he suxs they need to bring back the live band DKDA that would sing and make it great I won't be coming back anymore!!!!”
“Chill vibes. True 80s music ( some 90s). Great crowd.. girls just wanna have fun (boys too) kind of crowd. Cocktail drinks are $10. Not sure if they offer food. The staff was nice and attentive . Happy hour on Sun-Thurs 5-8 pm. Definitely recommend and we will be back .”
Latest Reviews
“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.”
“Pizza never disappoints but an even bigger Thank You to our delivery guy Nathan who not only delivered our pizza but also helped run after my furbaby as he ran out the door as I was opening up the door to get our pizza and Nathan did not hesistate to take off and run after my furbaby and have him come back to my apartment to bring him back in safely … so very thankful for this young man’s assistance this evening :)”

Thanks Grupo Mendez for bringing a great project like yours to the valley. Much needed!! Looking forward for your next project, coming soon!!!”
“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!”
