I came here on my lunch break and let me tell u the fish tacos were amazing the flavor was definitely on point the red salsa and cream took it to another level of deliciousness I highly recommend them. I also ordered a shrimp cocktail and it was the best one I've tried in a while. They prepared my food so quick I was amazed how fast the cook was. I will most definitely come back and recommend this place to my Acquaintances. My new favorite spot.

OK we can't say enough about how much we all lived this place! Mariscos La Playita are open late, the woman we met (who we believe to be one of the owners) that took our order and was absolutely lovely, and then the food came out... Wow, so yummy! Every thing was on point! We will definitely return any time we're even close to Lynnwood and try more items off the menu. Also it's good to know in the fall if you love tamales they have another restaurant that specializes in them named TAMALERIA Maria's. From the taste of everything we ordered we can pretty safely say their tamales are gonna be 100% on point as well and the service couldn't be any better either! 5 stars

I had some ceviche here it was a little small portions wise but to be honest I eat a lot so take that for what it is and the flavors of the food I got was really good better than expected and the service was super quick and friendly

*** good spot for lunch in Lynwood, CA *** ENVIRONMENT Mariscos La Playita has it's own building on Atlantic Ave near Imperial Hwy in Lynwood. It's a bit run down, but there's a makeshift order window facing Atlantic because they weren't allowing indoor dining even though the place is fairly small. There are a few picnic tables and chairs outside under shade. The pick up window is just to the side. I got yelled at by the cook for not realizing the order window was on the other side. Eff, sorry! SERVICE The female server was cordial. The old Spanish-only speaking man cooking was a grouch. Geeze, if y'all would clean it up a bit and have legit signs directing folks that might help. (I wasn't the only customer who walked to the wrong window.) Otherwise, take that chill pill already. MY FAVORITE PART... The flavorful asada. Also, the free drink with a Yelp checkin. NOT SO FAVORITE PART... Lynwood. Lol. The grouchy cook. THE GRUB I don't recall having an asada plate ($14) with the steak only sliced into two portions. Usually it's all cut up, but whatevs. The asada itself as very flavorful, but not quite as tender as I expected. The rice was fine. The refried beans were a bit runny. I enjoyed the three soft flour tortillas. The salad was mostly fresh. While I enjoyed the separately bagged sliced radishes and limes, they could have been more fresh. There were three small containers of salsas - verde, rojo, and an avocado blend. The avocado salsa was the spiciest and had the best flavor. For my drink, I chose Jamaica. It was super sweet! PARKING Free parking on the side and around back. TIP Check in to Yelp for a drink (as of 3/27/21). OVERALL If I went back, I'd probably be more inclined to try some shrimp tacos and/or ceviche. Heard better things about those items. I'm not rushing back any time soon, though. | Food: 4 | Service: 4 | Environment: 3 | Price: 3 |

I love burritos. Why because they are convenient and a way to eat something on the go. It's perfectly packaged for a person on the move. This burrito has everything protein ( my favorite al pastor) rice, beans, cheese, and sour cream. The burrito game is elevated by their preparation. They lay the flour tortilla on the grill and put the shredded cheese down so it can melt like a cheese quesadilla. They the fill it with the all fixings. Once rolled into the burrito package is topped with more cheese and avocado slices. Then on the side the best avocado salsa I have tasted in awhile. I will definitely be ordering a burrito from this place again. P.S. look at the picture!!
