La Mexicana - Pharr
by Sandra
This Mexican restaurant boasts of its Botana and we know why. The meat is very tender and it is just super delicious! But, even before your meal arrives, you are generously given a basket of tortilla chips and salsa. Their sweet tea is really the best! I have also ordered the Tlalpeno soup and it is so good - spicy broth with chicken and rice and topped with cheese and avocado slices. Yum!
You are taken care of by their waiters who know how to treat their guests.
And you will be entertained by a musician who regularly plays on his keyboard popular Mexican music such as La Cucaracha and Mariachi Loco. Certain nights, mariachis can be seen going from table to table asking if you would like to hear them. Be sure and ask them their going rate first though. It is a real treat if you have visitors from out-of-town visiting.
We have been going there for over 20 years; and while they were under another name back then, they have outdone themselves the past few years.
They are located on Business 83 in Pharr.
