- CCarlosCorpus Christi / McAllen •1 review5.0Dined on 18 May 2025Last night’s dinner was a true delight, full of comforting flavors and satisfying dishes. We started with crispy provolone—golden and gooey, with just the right crunch—followed by a fresh crisp Caesar salad. The main course was classic Chicken Parm, tender and savory under a blanket of rich tomato sauce and melted cheese. A Margherita pizza brought fresh basil, mozzarella, and tomato together in perfect balance. To finish, we cooled off with a refreshing strawberry sorbet, sweet and light—a perfect end to a delicious meal.More infoFelicePrice: Moderate • Italian• Weslaco•4.6
