Edit - came back 2 days later because it's so good. Got the birria quesadilla today ... Holy cow it was awesome! Not on the menu, but ask for them. Delicious! 3 for 12. I think they come with rice and beans, but I did but want them. Wow, great experience at Las Playitas! I wish I had this place at home. Started out great with a huge basket of chips and salsa in the little vase thing so I can pour out more. Ordered a la carte 2 beef soft tacos and 1 chimichanga. Normally I order 2 tacos, but the chimichanga was such a great price a la carte that I had to try it. Boy I'm glad I did! It was very tender chicken and juicy. Probably the best chimichanga I've ever had. Then the tacos were absolutely huge. Very unexpected but very grateful and they were delicious. You definitely need to try this place out and I plan on coming back even though I'm only in town a few days. Staff was great, and prices were really great! All my food was 10.

The experience was great. The manager even came by to ask how everything was and asked if we needed anything. So.ethong rarely done at restaurants today. I recommend the special dinner. It's wonderful.

This was first time to go. It was very clean and spacious. There is a great variety of selections. The food was very good. I had the Playitas Parilla. There was so much food which I was not able to finish. The portion size was amazing. Also, my favorite salsa in town.

Food was delicious, portions were huge, and prices were very reasonable! We arrived an hour before closing, so the staff was also cleaning around us and other diners. I did not love smelling fabuloso while eating.

Not much to say other than it was some of the best Mexican food we’ve had all over the country! Super flavorful which is not always the case. On top of that, portion sizes were huge and we were shocked the prices were so low. Beer was super cold, and the margarita was fantastic. Service was perfect too, they aren’t just sending anything out of the kitchen- I think the Hawaiian fajitas had over 8 shrimp along with every other meat. Check this place out if you are in the area!
