Mariscos La Costa

Shrimp cocktail with no tomato? Nombre no. Not good. Fried shrimp was good with seasoned fries. Fajita tacos were good. Lemonade was fresh. Over all not bad.

Excellent grilled fish and shrimp! Service was very good. Beer was cold with salt and lime. Two of us at for 30.00. Will definitely come back.

This place is your typical Mexican seafood place located in a VERY Mexican area of town. The food is yummy, it’s priced right, and the service, for me, has always been friendly. I usually go with a big group of in-​laws and we get the seafood platter. It’s huge and feeds a group.
A nice option for Mexican seafood in the Valley.

The fish was dry and small. For a 16 oz I think it was too small. The ceviche is terrible, like everything in the Valley very salty. Poor overall.

I cannot emphasize enough to people that I’m allergic to celery. I tell the waitress that am allergic and she even suggested dishes without it. Guess what the white rice with vegetables had celery. Couldn’t finish my dish Had to get up run across the street to a Walgreens spend 15.00 dollars for some Benadryl. Went back and they were smiling like if was funny. The food might be good but they really screw it up here didn’t even said we are sorry plus they still charge me for their error. First and believe me LAST.

You say you like Mexican seafood and chicharron de pescado? Then this is the place you want to visit. Hands down one of the best places to get some good fish in the Valley.
I was first introduced to the wonderful food in this place by a good friend and former client who brought a huge order of fish to my law office. Ever since then I’ve been in love with this place and always try and stop by when I go by the San Juan Shrine.
Even after it has been transported from San Juan to McAllen, the food retains its delicious flavor and you can just imagine what it is like fresh at the restaurant.
Try the chicharron de pescado! You’ll love the crispy fillets and the fresh tortillas. They have good salsa verde to go along with it, or a decent tartar sauce if that is your garnish of choice.
I give this place a great rating and recommend it to all my friends out there. You won’t be disappointed.
