Bodega Tavern & Kitchen - McAllen (TX)

5 /5 ma echeverria: Our server Taylor, was fabulous. She was very attentive, knew the menu, she was suggestive on things that we asked for. Came by our table many a time! This was our first time at Bogeda, great experience! Food: the New York steak with the herb butter and crispy fries were excellent! I was able to cut the meat with a butter knife. Afterwards, we sat outside, finished our wine…it was an experience. I think y’all will enjoy it.

5 /5 Brittney Marie: Spent my birthday here & it was wonderful! I had an amazing time with my friends! I wish I could remember our servers name because he was so attentive & did everything he could to make sure we were all happy and taken care of! 100% recommend you eat here! The food was also great!

5 /5 Syd C.: My goodness, where do I even begin with this place? We try to visit at least twice a month because it’s the perfect spot to unwind with dinner and drinks after a long day at work. We’ve been coming here for the past 2–3 years, and every visit has been amazing. Whenever we have friends or family in town, this is our go-to spot to bring them. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. As you can probably tell, I love their burgers. The only downside is that the menu and drink options change from time to time. It can be a bit of a letdown when you fall in love with something and it disappears, but I’ve come to appreciate the rotation—it gives me an excuse to try new things, and I usually end up loving those too. I still miss the Sweet Escape cocktail with the little flame on top—it was one of my all-time favorites, but it’s been off the menu for a while now. I highly recommend this place to any burger lover, but there’s so much more to enjoy. The meatloaf is superb, the chicken avocado Caesar salad is amazing, the fish sandwich is fantastic, and the calamari is super tasty. I’ll definitely keep coming back and recommending this gem to everyone I know!

5 /5 Nancy De La Garza: One of my absolute favorite restaurants in McAllen. They have an amazing brunch selection and their burgers are truly the best! The staff is always friendly and super helpful as well. This is one of my lunch go-tos. Try their greek salad with salmon. You wont regret it!

4 /5 Teresa: Even the simplest burger is amazing bc of the amazing bread and bc the beef tastes asada. The one with wasabi sauce was especially amazing and was not hot. Fries are solid. I did have to flag not staff multiple times both of the times i’ve been, they love to chat loudly with their coworkers and patrons rather than coming back on pending customers. Food is still worth coming for, but this food does deserve better service. Also, both times staff did not know what to recommend based on a specific question, they just said what they like, which was not my question. No training obviously not their fault. Third visit -The taste of the pizza was great, the texture of the bread was interesting…not the best. The burger with the goat cheese was alright. We tried the strawberry mojito and the pina/coconut drink, wouldn’t recommend either. The coconut didnt taste like coconut, the other one was really sour. Our server Alex was fantastic.
