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!

Great food, service, and atmosphere. Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. Get the shrimp or prawns. It's so good.

You'd think finding a Mexican place in Burien would be the easiest thing to do as there were at least a dozen choices that I've never frequented.
So, I fell back to a recommendation the home inspectors wife suggested as has the best margarita's. La Costa is the typical atmosphere you expect with the pink colors, music, booths and all the Mexican flare. You'll feel relaxed as you settle into the booth and are warmly greeted.
The menu has way too many choices as you look and see dozens of choices for each area. They must have at least 75-100 entrees you can choose. Now let me be sure to pick the regular ones that are typically ordered??
To start with a Carta Blanca and it came with a frozen glass and the beer literally froze in the glass it was that cold. The starters are some chips and salsa and some warm bean dip.
I got the tortilla soup and it was really pretty tasty on a cold rainy Seattle day. The portions here are very large and you'll not come away hungry. Another disk tried was the chili verde and the pork was perfectly cooked, lean and not too spicy.
I liked this place and found the pricing just right.

I recently visited Wa 98166 at 206 SW 152nd St in Seattle, and it was a delightful experience. The place exuded a warm and inviting atmosphere, making me feel right at home. Despite being on a weekday, the restaurant was quite busy, which is impressive for an off-peak day. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming; everyone seemed to know each other by name, creating a friendly environment. Portion sizes were generous, and the food tasted as amazing as others had mentioned—so good that we all fell silent to savor every bite. Parking was a bit of a challenge due to limited spots, but once seated, it didn’t really matter. A small suggestion might be to offer a few more vegetarian options for those like me who are not big meat eaters. Overall, I highly recommend giving this place a try!

We love La Costa! Delicious food, friendly staff & strong drinks! I suggest trying the carne asada, it's so tender and flavorful, it's my favorite thing on the menu.
