Disappointing they won’t take orders one hour before closing time. Maybe modify hours of operation??

Just had an unforgettable meal at Maria Cruz Restaurant & Bar, a beautiful plant-based spot in the heart of Downtown McAllen, Texas! Their Plato Casado was next-level — tender plant-based bistec with potatoes in rich tomato broth, served with rice, beans, a fresh lime-dressed salad, and sweet plantains topped with queso fresco & cream. Every bite was full of Southern Mexican flavor!

Huge thanks to Angela for the amazing service and warm hospitality — she truly made the experience special. At Maria Cruz, you can taste the passion and love in every dish. Can’t wait to go back! 🌱🌮❤️
