We hosted a meeting here with 13 people, and the staff was incredibly accommodating and kind. They handled our group very well.
I ordered the shrimp taco and the fish taco, and both were really good. I didn’t get to try a lot of the menu since we were meeting, but what I had was flavorful and fresh.
The atmosphere was great. I loved the open area that lets fresh air in, along with the greenery and natural vibe. It made the space feel relaxed and comfortable for our gathering.
One thing to note: gratuity is already added to the tab, so just be aware of that when you receive the bill.
Overall, a very nice experience and a great place for small meetings or group gatherings.

Came here excited to try it after reading positive reviews online. The visit started off well—we were seated swiftly, and our drinks, chips, and salsa arrived right away. Unfortunately, that was the only positive part of our experience.
After the initial drop-off, our server basically vanished. We had to wait a long time to order our food and were never once offered a refill on our drinks or the chips and salsa. The food itself was underwhelming, with both our dishes being bland and lacking flavor. The saddest thing is that the restaurant was not busy at all, so the inattentive service was inexcusable. It was a very disappointing visit, and we will not be back.

This is a nice change from the traditional Mexican restaurant. A lot of different food options. Ate the grilled shrimp taco and it was very good. Liked that I could order single taco so I didn’t have to have a whole meal. The restaurant was very clean. Prices were very reasonable. Server was very friendly. Checked on us several times to make sure we didn’t need anything extra during our meal. Great find in an area that is full of restaurants.

Came here to wait for my daughter and her friends to eat at the KPOP bbq spot. I was just walking in the parking lot and happen upon this place. Walked in and the the vibe was really cool and chill. And they close 11. They have BOGO house frozen margaritas. Thought it was gonna be ass. But surprisingly it was very good. Margaritas had that brown hue u wanna see. That lets u know it’s gonna be on point. The bartender Kiya was super cool and pointed me in the right direction. Staff was super cool and didn’t rush me out when I was waiting for my daughter to finish up. If u in the area try them out and get the BOGO Margies and the fried shrimp tacos

La Costilla Grill was our Saturday dinner date pick of the night.
I ordered the steak fajitas with white flour tortillas and a strawberry lemon drop. The waiter was super nice and attentive the only thing was he could’ve spoken a little louder since the music was on the louder side.
My friend ordered the fried snapper. He thought it lacked a bit of seasoning, but I tried it and thought it was fried nicely and tasted good.
Overall, I’d rate La Costilla Grill a 4/5. I’ll definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

Five stars all around, showed up with family and we were sat and had chips in our face before we even got menus . The server SARAH was very helpful, knowledgeable of the menu, and very funny. My nieces had grilled chicken dishes and it did not disappoint and I had the AGUACHILES. Very happy with this restaurant

I have visited this restaurant every week for the pass 7 weeks the food has been consistent but the service has not. This evening 2/10/26 I had a terrible experience, the waitress greeted my wife in I with. ” I’ve waited on you before…we told her a couple of times. We have always been pleased with her service. This visit we we ordered the exact same as usual…instead the order was now more than the week before, the food was incorrect and what I asked for was told I couldn’t receive. I only asked for rice instead of salad. I had received it t he week before. I would have gladly paid whatever the uncharge was, instead was told I couldn’t have it. Pretty much food is Med so service should be exceptional. I want be back over lack of proper service. Hire Better!!!

Service was awesome only reason food didn’t get 5 stars was the steak in the fajitas was over cooked and tough as leather and you ask for extra napkins you get drink napkins pic below.
