Be sure to try Pepe's in Harlingen, Texas. I'm originaly from north
Texas area, and I'm used to the Tex-Mex stuff.  
Pepe's has really great tacos, enchilada's, and carne guisada.
Large portions. You can also get the more authentic Mexican food
depending on what you like.  The service is great, but be
prepared to wait for a table, it's usually busy during lunch and
dinner. I've been in the valley for a over a year now, so I've
learned what not to eat.  Enjoy! Anonymous

I have to recommend
Marcello's in Port Isabel.
I wouldn't have guessed authentic Italian could be so great in a
place known for such great Mexican, but it's highly recommended
by this proud patron! Heather M., SPI

Bea Kraus says "Try the
Echo Hotel in Edinburg.  The have the
buffet, omelet station,and will also fry eggs. There is fresh fruit,
sweet rolls, etc. It is a great place to eat, very comfortable tables
and chairs.  Try it, you will like it!!!"

Hardy Pottinger says "
Texas Road House in McAllen is one of
our favorites. It's at 1224 E Jackson in McAllen. I like their baked
sweet potato and the 'road kill' (hamburger steak).  And it comes
with an infinite supply of hot rolls!   The service has always been
good too.  There's usually a bit of a wait though and it's on the
noisy side."

A few of us went to
Texas Roadhouse last Friday for dinner.
We used one of the tater skins coupons.  It was good!  I printed a
few off & gave one away last night as a bingo prize.

Gonzales Burgers on Silver Ave. in
Donna, has no sign on the front of the building, but a great many
Winter Texans do not need one! It is the best place for a burger
in the valley. Their  hours of operation are from 10:45 AM to 2:00
PM. If you go once I am sure you will go again! Go hungry!!"

Hardy Pottinger says, "
Angel's is a delightful little place where we
always feel like family. I've always found their breakfast and  lunch
menu items Wonderful as well as inexpensive. In the short time
they've been in business,  Angel's has quickly become very
popular with the locals as well as Winter Texans from nearby RV
parks. Well worth the drive. To get to Angel's, drive west toward
Penitas (west of Mission), then north on Tom Gill Rd. Turn left on
Mile 7 and you'll see their sign on the left. If you pass the school
or 'Whazzup' you've gone too far!"

Just to let you know she has moved to Business 83 and
Inspiration Rd." (anonymous tip)

Judy Olson says, "This little Mexican restaurant,
La Justicia, is
on 23rd St., just north of Nolana, in McAllen.  The service was
fast. The excellent authentic Mexican food arrived hot and very
tasty. I would highly recommend La Justicia."

"There is a new
Texas Roadhouse in Harlingen, just in front of
Lowe's at the Ed Carey exit off of Highway 77. It is scheduled to
open August 18.  Also, the new
Logan's Road House in
Harlingen is open. Take the Dixieland Road exit (especially while
southbound toward Brownsville).  If you headed from Brownsville
toward McAllen, take the Dixieland Road exit, and go to the new
Kohl's behind Target. You'll see Logan's from there."
