I love this place! We stopped here on a whim while staying in Port A, and were shocked at the prices versus the serving sizes. This is alot of food for not much money, and good. I love the chips, very fresh and light, and the two dips (red and green) were flavorful without burning my tongue off. Good sign right off the bat. I got the chicken ...

Awesome!

Best Mexican food in town, period. The beef fajitas have a great flavor. My wife really likes the Chicken Ranchero Enchiladas. Both the red and the green sauces are great. And the service is wonderful and friendly.

I really enjoy Happy Hour (Margaritas) and the FREE salsa and chips. I love the green salsa which I have been trying to recreate at home. It has a very nice atmosphere especially when they have entertainers!

I guess it depends on your taste but for myself and my fiance, La Playa leaves a lot to be desired. The rice is not good, period - it's hard and flavorless. The beans are okay but a bit runny and they leave a greasy feel on the tongue which tells me they use too much lard. The fried stuffed avocado was well, in a word, disgusting. The mixed ...

Best variety in town

This restaurant is comparable to some of the better Mexican food places in Houston. They have items you wont find on the menu anywhere else (stuffed avocado). I ordered the stuffed jalapenos and was shocked at how huge these things were- a large order could make a whole meal. The location on Saratoga is decorated nicely and the waitstaff are very professional and on top of things. It's very clean too.

Add more cheese...

I always have the same order, tacos al carbon. The beef fajitas are delicious. The salsa is tasty. The beans are excellent. Only the rice leaves a little to be desired. I always have the beef tacos and I add white cheese to them. They are too good to pass up!
