The food was okay. Nothing special! As much as you pay for drinks a food the food should be wonderful! I had a miscommunication with a staff member because I couldn’t understand what he was saying and he seemed like he had an attitude because I told him that was not what I want it. Once I see the receipt and clarified with him what I wanted, his attitude got kind of nasty.

This place is on the ocean with a gorgeous view. That’s pretty much the end of the nice things I’m going to say. The food is overpriced- it’s a resort. Sure. But the quality and taste is abysmally sad for what you pay. Three of the most tiny, dry, and bland fish tacos for $25 while looking out at the beautiful beach seemed almost comical. We also had tostones that begged for more chimichurri, a salad with a vinaigrette that was fine, and a wrap which was unremarkable. Service is a bit slow but friendly. Gratuity is included at a forced 20% here. Hand for scale in tiny taco photo.

Great location and food, but not too remarkable. As mentioned in other reviews, the service was very slow. If you are looking for a quick bite to eat, I would not recommend going here.

My wife and I are in dat two of a four day stay. We’ve enjoyed the Playa Beach Bar and Grill VERY much! Not only has the quality been excellent, the employees are very pleasant, and professional. Shoutout to our hostess Latoya who is awesome!

The hostess literally took my husband’s phone to write her own review and give herself 5 stars, stating they’re compensated based upon their positive reviews. Although we remember the name, we won’t state who. Writing this review not for the hostess, but rather, to urge the establishment to stop incentivizing in this way. Reading the other reviews, it seems obvious the same has happened to others as well, and it’s extremely uncomfortable

I LOVE this resort and will be back. However, the service needs major improvement. I’ve been at the beach now for 3 hours and the waited only dropped a menu off, only after we asked for it. He never came back!? Like we’re thirsty and hungry!!

Absolutely tasteless food. They made me hate fish tacos forever. The shrimp ceviche made from frozen shrimps – the most terrible one I have ever had. Not worth the price.

The service at Playa is really fantastic! Marcella at the bar made sure that my drinks were right, the Hotest Latoya always made us fell welcome and Ronald made it a point to come check-up on us before, during, and after we received our meal. Very pleasant service personnel, lovely and peaceful atmosphere right here next to great beach here at The Diplomat Hotel, in Hollywood, FL.
