vitaminka · 02-09-2008

hey guys just browsing around the forum and taking note of some good places to eat. planning on traveling to playa next week an cannot wait to get away from the cold weather here in the states. When my wife and i travel we like to go to the most local place possible. I personally have a passion for real authentic mexican cuisine and do not mind paying the buck for it. if anyone has any suggestions on where we can eat and at the same time enjoy a real local atmosphere it will be greatly appreciated.

Plenty of good eats - local and authentic... Doesn't cost you the big bucks either.

Search around and you'll find a LOT of suggestions. Start by reading this thread from the start!

El Fogan on 30 Ave was fantastic! Their grilled onions were to die for! Local, cheap annd good!

their el pastor is extremely good! We were pleasantly surprised at the service here, as we speak Spanglish.

This guy made all the waiters just break out laughing when I took his picture.

The food was excellent. Modelo is OK, but Sol would have been sooo much better.

Great place, with nice clean washrooms.

We can hardly wait to get back!!!!!

Imperial Shrimp at La Pesca are the best.. El Fogon was fantastic as well. Definitely on the "must eat at" list.

Very clean and appointed place, with outstanding service.

Why was this place kept a secret from me for so long???

are you sure it wasn't pheasant...faisán?
