After a three-year hiatus the South Texas Food Festival returns

McAllen Chamber of Commerce is bringing back Taste McAllen from 6:30-9:30 p.m. on May 3, 2023 at the McAllen Convention Center Oval Park.

Taste McAllen is the premiere food festival of South Texas where guests can enjoy mouth-watering signature bites from over 20 local chefs, top rated food trucks, independent and chain restaurants unique to our region.

Taste McAllen’s mission is to support and highlight the restaurant community by showcasing the diverse culinary talents of the region. The restaurant lineup includes 5A Ronda, Bella Mia, Bonhomia, Costa Mesa, Curry Box, Joelen’s, La Jaiba, Macaroni Grill, Ronin Ramen Noodle Bar, University Draft House, Wing Barn, Palenque and Fazoli’s, along many others.

Individual tickets are $75 each. Attendees can enjoy signature bites from all the participating vendors, along with beer, wine, and soft drinks included with General Admission access. Live music, photo opportunities and other activations will also be available.

VIP Sponsors will receive access to a special designated area with a food presentation by award-winning restaurateur Chef Larry Delgado from House, Wine & Bistro, SALT-New American Table and Salomé on Main. Delgado is also serving as the Chair for Taste McAllen 2023.

Those interested in purchasing tickets can do so by visiting http://bit.ly/2023taste (service fees will apply). Individuals can also purchase tickets at the McAllen Arts Performing Center Box Office or the McAllen Convention Center with waived processing fees.

“We’re so excited to bring back Taste McAllen after the long hiatus due to COVID-19 pandemic and other factors,” Vice President of Economic Development Jorge Sanchez said. “It took a lot of moving parts and people to bring it back to life and we are thrilled to showcase the community’s culinary diversity.”

Sponsors include City of McAllen, McAllen International Airport, L&F Distributors, Ruby Red Hospitality, Clark Chevrolet and supporter Explore McAllen.
