Taqueria la Playa: Reviews & Ratings
I really like this place. They have carnitas all the time (not always out of them like other places) and they are flavorful and not all fat. Their salsas are nice and spicy which I love! Most places give you that unflavored watery tomato stuff. Tortas, quesadillas, rice & beans are all good!
Love the food! Very authentic fresh and and always good! Service is great! Love the artwork on the walls tacos are bomb best you're going to get this side of Mexico. The pico de Gallo is exceptional it's our go-to from Mexican food
Está bien rico. Food is delicious service is great and ambiance is chill. I must say that molcajete is my favorite.
Excellent Mexican food. A neighborhood favorite . Serve yourself salsa bar. Casual dining with Mexican decor. Dine in or take out.
I only downloaded Yelp to add this review. We love this place. The food is yummy and consistent! The employees are ALWAYS friendly and the main reason we continue to go back. There's nothing fancy about it, and we love that! I had a surprise baby shower for my sister there, and they were so accommodating! Just a wonderful place!
Definitely coming back! Small parking lot shared with other businesses. Very friendly staff and lots of choices We had the fried fish. Comes with rice and beans. I had the combo with enchilada and taco. Everything was delicious, hot and good portions. Try it, you will not be disappointed
Was on the hunt for enchiladas and found this place nearby. If it wasn't for Yelp I would've never found it because it's hidden in the back corner of a small strip mall behind a gas station. They have plenty of seating and are open for dine in a rare find during COVID!!! The salsa bar has a sign advising that it is closed and to ask for chips and salsa from the counter. Prices are not bad for combos, a single combo enchilada with rice and beans is $7.99 Next time I'll go and dine in!
