Great service, many options on the menu and portions. I liked the beans a lot, they tasted authentic. Not big fan of the rice.
Our waiter was great.

They always make me feel welcome and being a woman of color I can sometimes feel unwelcome in some Spanish restaurants. I love every single person that I come in contact with so very much and this is my favorite place to get the LOVE BACK. Today I ordered the El Pollito & it was amazing! I have created my own special drink from the mango berry burst, and it is breathtaking. Definitely make your way to try some of their items.. don’t miss happy hour until 3 o’clock.. come try some of the best food you’ll ever have and enjoy the company you keep!

Got catering for our office meeting yesterday and our staff LOVED the food. Constantly saw folks going back for seconds, and later for leftovers!
Hilda was incredibly kind and thorough as we went over the catering order, and the portions we received were incredibly generous for what fit our budget. The food was absolutely delicious, and the fajita quesadilla was incredibly popular amongst our staff. One issue was that we were missing the taco shells from the order, but we called the restaurant and they were quick to send someone to our office to deliver the missing tray. The quick timing to remedy the situation and the quality, price, flavor, & amount of food easily makes up for that. :)
HIGHLY recommended for catering and for casual dining. Thanks!

I'm from San Diego; used to live in Tijuana. It's really hard to find great Mexican food up north here compared to what I'm used to growing up in San Diego but this place is pretty good and I don't mean to sound harsh. Great vibes, good food, service was just okay... Maybe they were super busy. I'll update if I go here again. It definitely feels like you're in a Mexican restaurant in Mexico somewhere.

I've been going here for over 30 years. Favorite Mexican restaurant by far
Massive portions and refined flavors. Atmosphere is vibrant and the staff goes out of their way to help. Seasoning is more balanced and exciting. Decor is stunning. Highly recommended for high-quality food lovers!

Ate here with my cousin I guess this place has been there for many years and his family owned. She here has a teenager a couple decades ago. The food was really good and authentic tasting. I was surprised at how large my taquitos were. My son got nachos which did not honestly look very impressive but my daughter got chicken tacos that looked good and she enjoyed them.

Just had a fantastic meal at La Costa on California Ave in Palo Alto. Seriously, the portions are huge – I got a massive burrito and it was still plenty. The staff were so friendly, it felt like a really welcoming place. It was busy, but moved quickly. They automatically bring out chips and salsa, which was a nice touch. I’d probably order a little less next time, but honestly, the food was incredible and worth the drive.

Took my family here for dinner on a Friday night. The service was fantastic, the atmosphere was buzzing with other happy families. Complimentary chips salsa and bean dip. The menu offers all the classics of a family Mexican restaurant. La Costa met all of my expectations and more. I can’t wait to go back again!
