La Playa - San Andreas

I grew up in this area and I visit this place every chance I get. Best fried fish and rice made with saffron. You never know who your going to see, parish priest, lawyers, tats and somebody selling something. 'Alls good in the hood '. Culture and home grown charm.

True salvadoran flavor! They also have Mexican, fried yucca, platos tipicos, riguas, etc. It's so delicious!!! Closed Wednesdays and expect to wait but it's well worth it.

I Arrived looking for Ceviche and Fried Fish and Discovered Papusas. Clean, friendly and a Surprise. I came to this restaurant after I saw that Trans Am Razz had been positive about this place. I was looking for some fried fish and some ceviche but I saw that people were eating papusas with cabbage and bits of carrots that came from a container on their respective tables. This, and the prominent Salvadoran flags in the place told me that I wasn't at the usual seafood place. I ate the papusas with the interesting sides as well as had a Salvadoran beer. It was wonderful. A surprise of flavors. On another subsequent visit I had fish with garlic, olives and onions on top with I believe a drizzle of olive oil. Heaven. I liked that they had security outside the place for our sense of security, but none seemed necessary.

Seafood and more served hot and fresh. Unlike other restaurants the shrimp cocktail is served with fresh shrimp not frozen. It was great. I also ordered the fried shrimp plate which comes with fries. It seemed like the fries were also battered a little. It was different but in a good way. Sweet tea was also good. Service was great. We will be back.

Went today for Valentine’s Day dinner with my sweetie. Everything was excellent!!! Things have changed since the last time we were here. They didn’t have the beer I liked anymore REGIA I think it’s called but they added onion rings and they are GOOD!!!! Shrimp cocktail is amazing and we got frog legs with our plate #27 it was all delicious!!!
