Great little gem that felt hidden away. I went after a friend recommended the place and I was not let down. They even have a pretty decent wine selection. On Wednesday they have a special for any wine, $5 a glass. The food has most local Mexican restaurants beat hands down but the food want the only reason to go. The staff was friendly and attentive. Hope you enjoy as much as I did!

I have never eaten here first time. WAS NOT IMPREST!! We ordered two Mexican cocktail shrimp. Which were not Mexican cocktail shrimp. It was cocktail sauce out of a bottle. My sons chicken strip were burnt. Service was bad. We had to ask for everything. Only one table was in use. Time to check out was asked about the service I was honest. Didn't even get a discount offered. Definitely not coming back.

I absolutely LOVE this place. The food is consistently good..I mean, very good. The margaritas are the best I ever had, for a price that you will not find anywhere around Austin. Erica, the waitress has provided us the best service I've experienced. My family and I look forward every week to go to La Playa.

Changing my five star review to if I could, a zero star review. The slowest service I've ever received at a restaurant in Georgetown. They messed up our drink order and charged us the amount that we did not order because we ended up having to drink or drinks because the amount of time that the server came between them serving it to us was about 45 minutes. The owner was walking the tables introducing himself, seemed completely in genuine and possibly even drunk. He was no help to the staff that was getting killed. Our server was pleasant, but when you're that badly in need of help it's hard to deliver any type of decent service. And at the end of the night when I asked them to adjust our bill for the mistake and drink, they told me that they couldn't. Unbelievable. Worst decision making for a manager or owner to Delight there guests. We're never coming back and we've been to this place many times. It took at least 50 minutes just to get our food. The kids meals we ordered took about 40 and we had to wait another 10 to get ours. Apparently ownership has changed, talk about Crash and Burn.

My wife and I have been going to La Playa for a few years now. Our last visit was a new experience. The salsa was extremely lacking. I asked our waiter what happened and he responded that the cooks left and took their recipes with them. My wife had carnitas and they were overcooked and dry. I'd like the owner to know that his responses to these reviews are also poor and need guidance from a marketing director. Really need to shape up quickly or your business will not thrive. Take this criticism and learn from it not respond with negative remarks. The person that left a 1 star review that you responded that you weren't open that day was uncalled for. Don't you realize most reviews aren't posted the same day of service? Aside from the changes our waiter was nice and responsive to our needs. Before serving your introduction to your business aka salsa make sure its spot on as that sets the tone for the meal. There are so many recipes online there is no reason for poor salsa.

We were really surprised at how good the food was here. It's a mom & pop place which is great but the decor made us wonder if the food would be good. It's AMAZING!!! I had the Chipotle enchiladas and they were SO good! Definitely give them a try. They also have live music on the weekends.

This Mexican American Food has a great set of Owners. I look forward to tasting their menu's. I'll be going to test it out for Valentine's Day meal I hope. I also hear they have made up flavor Margaritas during holiday's. The next flavors going to pucker my lips!! Can hardly wait. I've ate many places but this place has a great set of workers and great locations. I can hardly wait to try it and re-rate and give another review. Everyone please go here for your next holiday! You won't regret it!!!!

First time here. We ate a late lunch and the restaurant was not too crowded. The margarita on the rocks, salt, that I had was perfect in strength and taste. Our food was fresh and prepared as requested (no cheese on my companion's). I would go again.
