Is the most recommended Mexican restaurant in Phoenix actually good?
Phoenix Hidden Gem: Mariscos Playa Hermosa – Budget-Friendly Mexican Seafood ✨ Search for Phoenix’s best eats, and Mariscos Playa Hermosa pops up almost every time! It’s a bit out of the way, and I almost gave up on visiting—until a friend tried it first and raved about how delicious it was. In short: it’s unique, and offers huge portions at great prices (especially for current U.S. costs). If you have extra time, it’s totally worth a visit, but no need to go out of your way for it. 🍽️ Dining Highlights & Pro Tips Complimentary Starters: Tortilla chips are served as soon as you sit down, and after ordering, you’ll get one tostada per person (Photo 6)—generous pre-meal treats! Must-Order Combo (Photos 1-2): Hands down the best dish of the day! The Spanish name is way too long to remember—just show the photo to your server. Choose red sauce if you like spice, or green sauce if you don’t. It comes with two large plates of veggies, beans, and ham-free Yangzhou fried rice. For groups of 3 or fewer, this combo is enough—no need to order anything else. Second Pick: Seafood Soup (Photo 3): Light and refreshing, with generous helpings of seafood. It pairs perfectly with the combo to cut through richness. Other Dishes: The rest of the menu is solid but unremarkable—skip them unless you’re still hungry. Critical note: Both food and drink portions are massive, so order cautiously to avoid waste! 🌟 Final Takeaway Mariscos Playa Hermosa wins over diners with authentic Mexican seafood flavors and unbeatable value. While its location isn’t central, it’s worth the drive for seafood lovers and anyone wanting a budget-friendly feast. Just remember to pace your orders—you’ll leave full without overindulging! #USA #USATravel #AmericanFood #WestCoastTravel #Arizona #ArizonaFood #Phoenix #PhoenixFood #MexicanFood #Seafood
