La Playa - Pacifica
La Playa
Description
La Playa, a beachfront eatery, offers a vibrant atmosphere ideal for sports fans and families alike. While the food garners praise for its generous portions and bold flavors—especially the carne asada and tacos—service and cleanliness issues detract from the overall experience. Diners report dirty tables and a lack of staff leading to slower service, which hampers enjoyment. Despite these shortcomings, many visitors rave about standout dishes like skirt steak nachos and freshly made margaritas. It's a lively spot with potential, but improvements in hygiene and staffing are essential to elevate it to its deserved status.

A lovely authentic Mexican restaurant on the beach. Delicious food especially fajitas that you can order with veggies, chicken and prawns. A little bland but could source it up with delicious salsa. The spicy one is really hot, so much it up with regular salsa to normalize the heat. The portions are quite big and may be good enough for two to share. Side of chips and salsa is offered for no cost. The drinks are mostly variety of margaritas and mojitos. Mango chilli margarita is the best which was served with a 50ml of Don Julio dripping in the glass. Very strong drink that is perfect for hot dinner days. The service is impeccable. Pedro is a cashier and a server who has worked here for 33 years. That reflects that this is a home business which cares about it's workers. I appreciate such restaurants and will always recommend visiting them. La playa is a must visit in Pacifica. The devil's is traditional Mexican which reflects authentic Mexican culture and vibe of a decent restaurant great for families and friends alike Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Vegetarian options: No vegetarian food since rice is also cooked in chicken broth.
Just ok if you are a bit hungry.
My friends and I always order the veggie fajitas, customized to be vegan and dairy-free with extra guacamole. They are absolutely delicious and we enjoy them alongside their special house skinny margaritas. The restaurant has plenty of TVs for watching sports and has a lively atmosphere.
