Had the Enchiladas Rojas de queso plate and it hit the spot. Thanks to Ivon service was on point as well. Kudos to management for hiring employees like her.
Atmosphere was nice.

This place is not good at all. It's almost insulting to us Latinos. They messed up my drinks. Which is okay, I really don't care about that. I think I ordered a Campechana, the flavors were not blended together. Seems like they just got a cup and threw in some seafood and added some clamato. It was very bland. I then ordered a taco, it was the weirdest taco I have ever seen in my life. I know this restaurant can do better. Just need a little bit of standards.
Loud and expensive for what you get. Also server we had couldnt understand our request for straws with our drinks. Rediculous!!
Wont be back!

We visited Mariscos La Playita in Concord on a Sunday. The service was good, very attentive and friendly staff. There was live mariachi music, which gave the place a fun, family-friendly atmosphere. That said, if you’re not used to loud environments, you might prefer sitting toward the back of the restaurant, where it’s much quieter.
As for the food, it was just okay. We ordered the shrimp a la Karky (I believe that was the name), and they were pretty watery. They might work better with a drier preparation, maybe something closer to shrimp a la piedra. We also had a shrimp and octopus cocktail, and it literally had just four shrimp in it—not what you’d expect. The tostada with shrimp and octopus was also a letdown. The octopus was overcooked, rubbery, and not properly cleaned.
Honestly, it felt like whoever is in charge of the kitchen might not have much experience with seafood dishes. The quality of the food was quite poor overall.
On the bright side, the atmosphere was lively, there’s plenty of parking. So while the ambiance and service were solid, the food definitely needs improvement, especially if they’re aiming to serve authentic, well-prepared seafood.
I used to like this place. Last week I went in (totally different staff) and ordered my usual--blended margarita, una enchilada combo. I got a margarita over the rocks and doss enchiladas. Of course, I was charged the higher rate (nearly double of what I had ordered and what I was used to paying.

Watch your receipts when you go to pay. They don't give itemized receipts for the food you order. I ordered two wet burritos for dine-in for myself and my wife. When I went to pay, the waitress only printed a merchant receipt. I built the same order from their website as I did when I dined in on my phone right after we left the restaurant. It was 10.00 dollars higher. When I went back into the restaurant to request an itemized receipt, the waitress claimed she threw the receipt away.

It’s a terrible place to go eat at them surf rice shrimp and the staff is so unfriendly and unkind. I went with my four friends and they didn't sit us down for like five minutes and then it took half an hour to get away to come to our table, and the place was not packed. There was maybe four or five tables there and about three staff members and bartenders and they did not give us any serviceIt is a very disgusting place and the people are very bad, they are not very professional and the food they make is not cooked at the temperature they describe it and it is a very horrible place. I hope that no one has the tragedy of trying to eat here. I warn you not to. You're going to like it and you're going to be treated very badly. Customer service doesn't exist here.

The price was fine for the food but the tax was insane. The service rate was 18% for a table of 6 people and over and we were a table of 7 so our service rate was $20-$40. Plus tax so our tax in total was $50. The only food I would recommend in the fried fish and rice because everything else made my family's stomach hurt. The overall price for 7 drinks, 6 tacos, shrimp cocktail, 2 fajitas, and 2 tostada's was $270+.
