“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.“

“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.“

“Great place to spend time“

“Vida made our entire experience absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we sat down, she radiated warmth, professionalism, and genuine kindness that instantly set the tone for the evening. She wasn’t just attentive—she anticipated everything we needed before we even had to ask. Her recommendations were spot-on, her timing was perfect, and her ability to balance attentiveness with giving us space was flawless.

What really sets Vida apart is her personality. She’s not just friendly, she’s magnetic—engaging in conversation with a natural ease that makes you feel like you’re her only table, even when she’s clearly managing everything around her with effortless grace. It’s rare to meet someone who can combine exceptional service with such authenticity, but Vida does it beautifully.

I’ve had great service before, but Vida redefines what “great service” means. She turned a simple night out into something truly special. Honestly, if you’re lucky enough to have Vida as your server, you’ll understand why I’m already planning my next visit. She doesn’t just elevate the meal—she elevates the entire experience. Vida is hands down the best waitress I’ve ever had, anywhere.“

“The staff is always amazing! Jorge especially is always so attentive and accommodating. Facilities are always so clean and the gaming is phenomenal. Not to mention athletic game days/ fight nights on their screens. This place is perfect for both children and adults to enjoy literally Monday through Sunday (AKA EVERY SINGLE DAY). Would recommend 100%!!!!!“

“My fav place. I visit from out of town often and here, there's always a good time. So much performing talent in mcallen! It feels like a non judgemental encouraging and lively atmosphere. Service is friendly and so are the patrons. Come here for a good time!!🥳🥳“

“Yes, it's Applebee's, but there's something nostalgic about the old interior that almost transports you back to the 2000s. And for that, it wins in my book. Even if the only thing I really enjoy is the pecan butter Blondie. It's a classic location and I like that they've kept the old feel. The staff is really nice too, which is always a plus. Good for some drinks and appetizers, the occasional dessert.“
