My wife and I had to be down the valley in Weslaco today so we decided to drive on down to Harlingen and eat at La Playa. We haven't eaten there in over a year and we love the fajita stuffed deep fried avacadoes. The place is still there and was still real good. I have a lot of favorite eating places here in McAllen, but La Playa is good eats!

I live in East Texas but travel to the valley every 4-6 weeks for business. If you wouldn't mind sharing, what eating places in McAllen do you like?

Other than the normal suspects that are available in most cities, I suggest that you try Koko's. It is on North 10th and is a Tex-Mex favorite. The brothers that own it are long time friends... (I was an assistant principal at McHi and so I know a lot of the "kids" of that time). They also have my favorite waitress in town. If you are hungry be sure and order the "Botana".

I would second Koko's.

I love Koko's, it's the best Tex-Mex and priced like the best too.

On a different note, I have been really impressed with Tower Burger in Alamo.

I would also recommend the Republic of the Rio Grande for out of towners.

We eat at Koko's just about every week too. Love that place.

Oh and the Patio on Guerra is a good place and I think they are open for lunch now.

OVR - Googled KOKO's and see two locations - is there a difference between the two? It seems like you are referencing the "Uptown" location
