La Playa Mexican Grill is a restaurant recognized for its warm hospitality and delicious Mexican cuisine. The manager is praised for his attentive service, ensuring every guest feels special. The menu features a variety of dishes, including nachos, shrimp cocktail, Charro tacos, fajitas, chimichanga, stuffed avocados, and a family platter that offers a sampling of different meals like ribs, fish, shrimp, and quail. Desserts such as ice cream are also available for special occasions.
The restaurant has a bar serving margaritas and provides chips and salsa upon seating. The stuffed avocado plate remains a favorite, showcasing a moist and juicy chicken filling. Guests have noted that the tortilla soup can be a bit salty and the refried beans may be too thin and flavorless, but overall, the dining experience is positive, with quick seating and friendly service. La Playa Mexican Grill is seen as a hidden gem, ideal for both casual dining and special events, such as company Christmas parties featuring mariachi performances.
