La Playa Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
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!!!
The pupusas and plantains are everything was very authentic. Great prices, friendly staff. Card machine was down.
Good seafood with a definite Mexican (Mariscos) flair. The decor, wall murals and food (along with wait staff talking in Spanish) reminded me of eating in a seaside town in Mexico. They have solid fare. Good food and pretty inexpensive for seafood. Off the beaten path on San Antonio's west side, but definitely worth a try when you're missing the seafood dives of Cabo or Cancun!
Great food! Excellent service! And the best bar in town!
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.
Great Homemade ice cream soooo yummy and big location to bring all your friends and family!
This place is really good. I really loved the salsa with the chips. I got the shrimp quesadilla and a stuffed crab. My boyfriend got the bean and cheese tacos and he said it was good and perfectly cheesy. I would definitely recommend coming here and the sweet tea was perfect.
Wow. Great Salvadorian restaurant the filet of Red snapper, shrimp and tilapia grill ,they are sooo good definitely we will comeback And for snack 3 popusas revueltas de pork skin and cheese, loroco and cheese
