The food at La Costita reminds me of the food I have eaten in Mazatlan. Everything I've had here is really good. All of the shrimp dishes are yummy, but my normal dinner seems to be the Chicken Fundido. I love all the cheesy goodness!! The staff is always friendly and the service is always good.

We eat here often and love the food. Like all places some ok servers and some great servers. I am not sure about the bad reviews. I am quite picky.

We went here for dinner my husband got the combo plate with 3 items. It was a pretty good deal and the food was really tasty. I got the pollo asado which seemed a little pricey for what it was. The service was slow, we had to ask another server to send our waitress to take our order. They might... More

Found in a strip mall flanked by an Albertson's and equally crappy Chinese Restaurant. Happy Valley is a "DEAD ZONE" for most quality food and it's a shame. I "LOVE" Mexican food and really hoped for this place to be at least DECENT. This place is the perfect definition of the words "Waste of time and space." I've been here... More

you know you eat here a lot when the staff remembers you. My wife swears by the fajitas and I always mix it up and always enjoy what I get. salsa is the best. coupons can always be found in local papers/magazines.

It is such a disappointment when a menu details something that sounds terrific and you're served a plate that looks like it was someone's leftovers. This was our second time trying La Costita and only returned because the manager comped us a free meal because our first experience was such a disaster--we put in a to-go order and literally every...

Got very sick right after eating here and so did two of my family members who ate the same food. Heard people talking about mice or rats in the garbage you walk by. Will NEVER go back.

This is my favorite place to go when I'm craving Mexican food. The chili rellenos are incredible, the salsas are so fresh and their margaritas are incredible. My family eats here quite often, my son (who is one of the pickiest kids EVER) loves to come here and chow down. I definetly recommend this place to any fan of good... More

we have been here several times as it is just down the road from our house. the service is generally good and the chips and salsa are great. drinks are good, food is okay but over priced and not what the menu says...once I ordered a taco salad and it was almost all shredded lettuce, barely any meat, tomato, cheese,...
