La Costca Mexican Restaurant Burien WA by Lucille B. at InsiderPages

La Costca has been in the same location in Burien for many years and I have eaten there more times than I can count. The food is consistently good, with huge portions. The servers have always been pleasant. We've usually had combo plates that include your choice of entree, beans and salad. Chips and chips always come as soon as you are seated and they make a mean margarita. They have live music on Friday and Saturday nights.

just GOOD Mexican food!

Nothing fancy, just good! The place has a nice, homey feel, and there are lots of regulars. The crowd is always a mixture of Latino families and locals who appreciate really good Mexican food that isn't tarted up for the gringos. The service is great, and many of the servers have been there for years. The margaritas are potent and the jukebox in the bar is full of Mexican pop tunes. But go on Friday nights before 8 pm and you'll catch a fabulous live Mariachi band!

• Pros: great food, live Mariachi
• Cons: weekends are busy
