La Playita is known as the best authentic Mexican restaurant in the area, offering a wide range of traditional dishes. The restaurant's sauces, beans, and rice are handmade daily by Abuelita, and the chips and salsa are always fresh. Specialties like chicken mole are not commonly found elsewhere. The portions are generous, and the staff is attentive and friendly, often recognizing regular customers. While the chile relleno and salsa may be inconsistent, the Chile Verde is praised as the best in town. The atmosphere includes a garden-like patio for outdoor dining, and the interior features nice artwork and decorations. Though some have noted that the decor could be improved, diners appreciate the family atmosphere and reasonable prices. La Playita is a small, family-owned business that provides a taste of traditional Mexican cuisine and has been a favorite for decades.
