Las Playas

I use this place mostly for takeout. Always good and consistent. Very good shrimp quesadillas. Prices have increased some but still good value.

Cheese dip is good. Asked for spicy salsa and was charged for it. I would not complain about it other then alot of places i go it is free to get spicy salsa and when I asked they should of told me it cost. Dishes are nothing spectacular.

I ate here last week. pretty good food cheese sauce very good. The salsa not very good very bland. I had to add habenro sauce to eat so it taste better.

If you are like me and dislike El Maguey due to their tasteless boiled gr beef and cheap ingredients then this restaurant would be considered several notches below that. I ordered the $ 9.99 Platter with 2 enchiladas and 1 taco with Rice. The «enchiladas» were tasteless boiled ground beef with a soggy — yep soggy almost ready to fall apart — flour tortillas covered in a red sauce. The taco was the same ground beef in a taco shell with a good handful of grated cheese. The «Mexican Rice» was a very overcooked and tasteless white rice with a pinkish hue. That was IT. No lettuce or any other side. $ 9.99. Then I ordered a queso cheese dip for the chips which arrived warm in a small cup with my meal. It was so thin that it ran off the chip and didn’t stick. I tried to pour a little over the «enchiladas» and again it ran off in a pool. It was about the consistency of milk. I have never experienced a cheese «dip» like this before. It actually should have been served warm in a cup.
The big surprise was the charge on my bill for the «dip». $ 3.99! I asked if it was a mistake and was told no. I get that it costs for overhead and labor. But really? About $.75 to $ 1.00 (at most) in ingredients that was poorly prepared. My bill with tax was $ 15.00 for 1 person and the meal really wasn’t worth eating. I drive by this site almost daily and seldom see many cars there and often none. Should have been my hint.

Wow u must have the pulled pork soft tacos… I can’t decide if it needs BBQ or salsa but wow… O and a few black margaritas

I tried this restaurant out about two years ago and wasn’t very impressed. The food was very bland and tasteless. I decided that it was time to try it again and see if it had improved. The salsa that was brought with the chips was very good and tasted fresh. I ordered the chicken enchiladas and was impressed with them. The enchiladas were full of chicken very flavorful. The service was quick and friendly.

We have been driving past this place for a long time. We went to warrensburg a couple weeks ago and I saw the name on the menu at copper coyote So I saw some good reviews and we tried it today. I got the burrito Azteca with smoked chopped pork, beans and smothered in their green sauce and guacamole. I got the sauce on the side since I am always aware of heat but this came out and was great. The meat was tender, it had a huge portion if quac ample on it and was not soaking in cheese. The sauce was amazing and so flavorful with the right amount of heat. Husband had the ribs, said they were a bit salty but still good and his French fries were double fried nice and crunchy. Their chips and salsa were also great. We will be going back for sure!

I eat at this place frequently with friends. Every time we have the owner/​manager as the server, he seems annoyed. Last night, it took over 5 min to get drinks. Once we were ready to order, he seemed irritated like he didn’t want us there and rushed us through our orders. The food is good and the restaurant is clean. But it offsets the owner being rude. They don’t have much service as it is. I would hate to see this place close because the owner is a douche.

I have been wanting to try for a while now, since it was in Blue Springs. Tryed the pulled pork taco and a burito overall I liked the pulled pork taco best. It was good. They do charge 1.00 a bowl for the extra hot sauce but was worth it. The service was great almost enough to raise overall score to 4 stars but I usually rate on food so 3 stars. Will come back to try their ribs.

Went tonight with the girlfriend to celebrate cinco de mayo and the atmosphere was average compared to any other Mexican restaurant. Drink specials were nice, 5.00 dollars for a 27oz margarita (lime only) or a pitcher of bud light for 5.00 dollars. Food specials were just as good; 3 beef hard shell tacos, rice and beans for 5.99÷3 beef enchiladas, rice and beans for 5.99 as well. The service we received was great, although the kitchen took about 35 minutes to get our food out which we both had the special. I had the tacos and the meat wasn’t anything special but overall a good experience. Will be back for the cheap prices.

Stumbled upon this place while looking for a place that was open for lunch on a Sunday. Very good food! The seafood enchiladas were smothered in white cheese sauce and were delicious. My husband had the steak vera cruz and he said it was delicious as well.

I’ve been driving past this place for years and was never all that curious to check it out. When a dining companion put it on a list of possible places to go, I hopped on Unilocal and decided to give it a try based on previous reviews.
I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t see that much on the menu that made the crossover from barbeque to Mexican (the pulled pork tacos people have mentioned were not available), but it was tasty authentic Mexican. The salsa was good, the chips were fresh. My biggest complaint was the margarita, which tasted like old-​time, original Gatorade, with no hint of tequila. They were cheap, but they weren’t that good.
The entrees, on the other hand, were great. I had the chile verde, with chunks of nicely cooked pork in a spicy tomatillo sauce. The rice was fine, the beans were really really good. Like so much better than beans you’ve had elsewhere.
My companion had a combo plate with a burrito and a taco, and loved them both.
The service was good, and other than not having a beer listed on the menu, everything was fine. I’ll definitely be back to check it out again.

My wife and I have frequented this wonderful establishment on several occasions, and have yet to be disappointed. I have found a favorite, the Azteca Burrito! an amazing, flavorful, smoked pork stuffed bite of deliciousness! Every bite was soooo good! I personally enjoyed the salsa and the chips, maybe not the best thing in the world, however they are freshly made and again they are chips and salsa that taste very good… anyway, I highly recommend Las Playas, very reasonably priced (lunch time) great service, great food, and I/​we look forward to our future visits!
With my experiences of Mexican food restaurants in the Blue Springs area this place certainly deserves 5 stars!

I’m upping the stars tonight for 1 reason and 1 reason only — Smoked Pulled Pork Tacos. Oh, and the $ 2.99 27oz margaritas didn’t hurt either.
Since this place offers a full BBQ menu and Mexican menu I figured it was worth a shot, and it was. The waitress was more than happy to accommodate and I may have a new favorite taco.
I made the mistake of trying a fish taco this time which was not worth it. I will admit they’re not packing much into their tacos, especially compared to some of the Mexican street tacos you can get in KCK, but if you stick to the pork and particularly the smoked pork off the BBQ menu you won’t be disappointed.
