-Pleasantly surprised at the flavors of our dishes, and the amount, my God! My wife received the largest Burrito I’ve EVER seen served at ANY Restaurant (she said the same, and she’s a former bartender & restaurant server/manager of several bars & restaurants), their Deluxe Burrito. She got to bring home half of it & get a second meal out of it. AHHH! Leftovers! Look-Out Paraisos! (in Smokey Point). Our guest had the #25 (I think), a burrito & an enchilada combo, which was equally Huge & he enjoyed. My Spicy Shrimp Salad (featured on a menu insert) was great, tho could’ve been bigger & contain a bit more Other Vegetables replacing some of the iceberg lettuce, just to go with that former theme. Edit:Oh, and watch out for the pico that comes with the chips, it’s HOT! I’m a pepper-head, so I loves me some Heat, but this stuff is ON FIRE! *or maybe I was just overly sensitive on this day, which has happened before.

When travelling to American, a Mexican meal is a must, and Playa Bonita did not disappoint me. I am travelling with a group of 7 and we all love the food.

I ordered a deluxe burrito it was very good and it came fast. I didn’t care for the chips and salsa the salsa was way too spicy for me and the chips didn’t seem freshly made like many Mexican restaurants have and are for me one of the best parts about the whole experience. The sevice was slightly too casual or maybe ive just been spoiled by some of my favorite Mexican restaurants.

I come here every time I visit the area. The staff is always amazing. So friendly and so efficient. They have the takeout order service down perfectly. Carne asada plate is usually my go-to, and the burritos can fill a large stomach with ease.

3.5⭐️ For $21.99 their Pork Carnitas plate was okay. Not bad but not great either. It was loaded with too much onions in the pork dish. If their intention was to cheat to make it look fuller then it actually ruined the experience.

I went to Playa Bonita for the first time yesterday. I don’t eat Mexican food much, though I do like it very much. Being new to the area, I haven’t been to many Mexican restaurants; only La hacienda and taco time. I can say for certain that Playa Bonita is the best Mexican food restaurant I’ve been to (comparable to my favorite Mexican spot back home in Boston)! The restaurant was colorful and bright, a huge building right in the heart of Arlington. Nice and clean table, bathrooms, etc.

Not a huge fan… Obviously. The food was good. I had carne asada with some bacon wrapped shrimps. Tasty and cooked well. Not my favorite… I’ve had better Mar y tierra plates.

Good food and the bartender can be a hoot. They actually have a pretty good selection behind the bar and a few high-end flavors of booze the boss didn’t go that crazy he was only taking $25 shots of tequila. I had the Chili Colorado which was awesome and Dos Equis on tap .
