La Playa Mexican Cafe

Hi guys, it’s me again with a new review of La Playa Mexican Café. We were SUPER excited to try this place because of the way it looked on the outside. Unfortunately I did not get pictures of the outside but the inside was pretty nice too! We ordered margaritas because it’s Mexican food, right? TOTALLY watered down and WAY TOO MUCH SALT!! So I talked to the manager about it and he said it was because of the ice, but if I wanted a different, more expensive margarita I could have that instead, so we tried it, and it was better. But when the food came, the rice and the beans were cold, AND the rice was crunchy … VERY unappetizing and unappealing. We will probably go back once more to see if it was just an ‘off night’ for them, I’ll let you know what happens. Have a great day!

The food was wonderful - fresh, hot and well presented. Our server was very nice but could have been more attentive. We were seated near the kitchen so it was pretty noisy. Overall, it was a good experience.

We visited late on a Wednesday night (the 1st of October) and pretty much had the place to ourselves. The staff was friendly, pleasant, and more than competent. The food was excellent. We had Queso Flamiado with beef for an appetizer. We did not have the server light it on fire. It was delicious and we enjoyed it very much. I had the fried stuffed avocado with chicken and my husband had the chile relleno. Both were wonderful. Presentation was very nice and the other food on the plates was as good as the entrees. Overall, we were super impressed and highly recommend La Playa.

As you walk up to the restaurant, the decorations are colorful and wonderful. The waitress, Elvia was so friendly. There were five of us at the table and Elvia was great at taking care of us. I had the seafood enchiladas and they were so delicious! The chips and salsa were very tasty as well! Thanks for a great meal!

This restaurant has never disappointed me, and this visit reminded me why. The food is always delicious, but what really stands out is the service. Every time I’ve come here, the servers have been fast, courteous, and genuinely attentive. You never feel rushed — if you need something, they’re right there and honestly they're always in a good mood naturally. This time was especially meaningful. We came in hoping to have a quiet place for Bible study while we ate, but the dining area was pretty noisy and it was too cold to sit outside. We mentioned to our server that we were just trying to find a peaceful spot to do our Bible study, and without hesitation he got the Manager and he said, “We have a private room in the back — you can use that.” Even though the lights were off, he turned them
