I was here in McAllen working and was told by everyone that I had to have it while I was here. A friend invited me here and assured me this place was the best place to get it. He was not wrong! I am a fan for life and will be coming back here as soon as my job sends me back. The meat is tender and seasoned perfectly. Stop what you are doing and go here if you are in the area. If you come by here take time out of whatever you are doing and come here. read less

We live in San Antonio and each time we visit my husband's family I beg him to take me to get a Botana. I enjoy the caldo, the Botana both chicken and beef fajitas, and the enchiladas. Also and a huge fan of the music they play (Los panchos style). read less

Living out in Louisiana has got me missing all that the valley has to offer including one of my favorite restaurants, Casa de Marisco. My family and I drive out from McAllen to eat dinner here because of how affordable the platter is (how TENDER the meats are) and the delicious seafood soup. Of course, the salsa and pico de gallo is perfectly spicy. You wanna know how special this place is? I visit home maybe 1-2 times a year and the day I visit home my parents take me here. This is a family run business and it's heartwarming to see the number of families who share their meals here. Few things are better in the food world than seeing a local star get the support they deserve. read less

We had great service from the moment we walked in. The manager came to the table to welcome us. The food was excellent and more than we expected. I 2ould return there in a minute. We had the Bonata for one and it fed us both with lots left over to bring home. Great place. read less

We were seated right away, not too full on a Thursday night. Mariachis were nice but a bit too loud since I was trying to catch up with a good friend. We ordered cheese enchiladas and the Mar y Tierra for two (fries, tostada chips w/beans covered with cheese topped with beef, chicken, shrimp, fish, stuffed clam). Omgsh it was enough for four and delicious. read less

Maybe more, and they are always courteous, attentive, reasonably prompt with the food. Oh and everything is of course delicious. If you're looking for a place to eat avlnd you're near Weslaco, do yourself a favor and visit this place. Plus you get to support a local small business. Just be aware parking is limited somewhat. read less

We usually come as a group of four and order a Botana for two and still can't finish the plate. The food is great and, sooo good. You have to check this place out, it's always busy so you can also park across the street at the Other restaurant if you can't find parking. read less

The old man waiters, big ass cups of tea, and fat yellow cheese are staples at this unassuming establishment. If you order a botana for 1, make sure you can eat for 4 because their portions are gigantic. My favorite day to visit is Wednesday because the special of the day is fried catfish and a huge glass of tea for $6.99...again, make sure you're hungry because it's enough to feed a stoned fat guy. Don't let the weird parking lot, old exterior, and folding chairs fool you...the food, the service, and the prices are excellent!I can't even read the negative reviews...like, really? You're mad because you got one quesadilla? B!tch, you got 14 pieces of fish and 3 pounds of fries! Sit down! Lol read less
