Great experience! Very good food for a fair price. The salsa (with chips) was mild, and I really could enjoy the flavors of the ingredients. The bathroom is very nicely cleaned. The staff overall was super friendly, as well. If there’s something to change, they could use some extra napkins available on the tables. Today I had the chicken fajitas lunch and it was delicious!

The mango margarita was Devine! Mushroom lovers will really enjoy the arroz con camoerones. The La Playa seafood was delish. Huge servings, so come hungry.

Went with a party of 4. Had steak tacos, fajita chimichanga, and shrimp ceviche. Drinks were margaritas and beer. Everything from the time we stepped into ths door to the time we left was superior service and great food and drinks. We love ths ambiance as well and they do have a kid friendly menu as well as authentic Mexican food. Loyal customer here.

We have never had a bad meal here but last night was a bit different. My husband and I split the toriado and there was no cheese and the meat was super dry. We were babysitting and orded Mac and cheese for her and it was so dry and stick she asked to pour queso on it. I understand places have rough days but there were only about 5 families in there. May be a while before we try it again. Plus waitstaff was just talking and giggling and not waiting on tables like they should.

The pastor tacos were delicious! Such wonderful flavors – and came with a excellent hot sauce. I order it often and this was the best! Husband had the shrimp tacos – also wonderful. I had the house margarita on the rocks – Perfect. The wait staff were all wonderful. Pastor tacos were safely lactose free for me. Excellent dinner on a Sunday night. Very grateful.

Best Mexican restaurant in town. I love this place, but their online ordering page sucks.

Great food. Extremely reasonable prices. They can accommodate big groups too because it’s a huge restaurant. Margs are on point and again, the marg pitchers are a great deal.

Absolutely phenomenal! The art there is gorgeous and one of a kind so we absolutely loved the atmosphere. The burrito spanned the width of my husband’s chest and two of three tacos were enough to fill me. The flavor was out of this world. They got their liquor license today so we were some of the lucky firsts to try their margaritas and it was great! Everything was far above reasonable price as well. What stood out the most though, out of all these amazing things, was the service. Everyone was so kind and attentive. Never a long wait and eager to make sure we were happy and satisfied.

Went with a friend for dinner at 5:30.art work was beautiful, ambiance was nice! Loved that margarita glasses and shooter glasses. Got a made to order margarita, a Don Julio 70 shot to sip while eating. Friend got a margarita shaker. Was all very good! Ordered guacamole, shrimp ceviche, chicken enchiladas, and carne asada. The meal was very good! Huge portions and beans and rice were spot on. If you need hot sauce they have both green and red available. Food was great and made for all. Not spicy until you make it as such. We vacation in Mexico and the ceviche took me back there. Great service, attentive staff, relaxed and warm atmosphere! Everyone was laughing and having a great time at the other tables as well! We will be back! Way to food Boone!!!

The food was delicious (especially the sauce on my beef burrito), the service was excellent (and patient as we talked long after we finished our food) and the setting was perfect for me (downtown in my hometown — just felt right for a town I left in 1977).
