    We always have a great time and enjoy the food at Playa. Rafael and the entire staff make us feel like old friends every time we're there. Highly recommended!

    I loved everything about this place. The setting is beautiful with sea views. The decor is really chic and the music is good. I received a really warm welcome, and attentive service. The food quality is really excellent. The best tacos I have had outside of Mexico. Flawless. Would highly recommend the shrimp tacos. I will definitely be back!

    Beautiful restaurant, beautiful view. Food was just ok. Small portions for the price. Staff was nice. The bartender was hard at work and looked to take his mixology as an art. We have been looking for a good Mexican restaurant for a long time. Still looking.

    The food and the location were good, but the service has been terrible. We ordered a natural orange juice, but they served supermarket juice because it was very liquid, and there weren't the pieces of the orange. When we noticed it to the waiter, the guy half bald with moustache, he refused to admit the juice wasn't natural. Also, the other waiters were rude. They have not been welcoming. When you are in a place like that, you expect a better quality service.

    I went to celebrate my birthday with my family and we have a delicious evening. Everything was so yummy, my favorite the salmon ceviche, the margaritas and the manga cheesecake. We loved the concept, you can try a different kind of mexican flavors in many dishes perfect to share. Thank you, we will come back!
