| - There's some places that you go to and you can't help but be like "Damn! This is why
Yelp exists!", and I mean this in the best possible way! I'm half tempted to go see if I've rated anything else 5-star, and lower the review, because they likely don't compare.
Clearly I'm not the first person to discover the Playa Cabana Cantina- I went on a Wednesday evening, and this place was PACKED, and for good reason! From the friendly staff, to the hip decor, to the inventive cocktail menu, to the delicious food - I've got nothing to gripe about, other than I didn't discover it sooner.
I'm a pretty big fan of Mexican-inspired dishes, and am definitely not difficult to please, but his place really raised the bar! Hands down, the best salsa I've ever had. As a vegetarian, I opted for the veggie enchiladas suizas and I was blown away by how flavourful the food was. No boring beans and rice here. Our server offered us some really excellent HOT sauces to accompany that even further enhanced the flavour (be prepared for some serious heat, boys and girls)!
Despite how busy it was, it was well staffed, and we were well attended to throughout our visit. The servers made us feel like old friends, and with the lively Spanish music, it's pretty hard to resist the tequila ;).
I can imagine this place is off the hook for Cinco de Mayo!
I really can't rave enough about the Playa Cabana Cantina, and am already planning my next visit! There's a large menu that demands to be explored, and cocktails that demand to be sampled. Some people may find that it's a little on the pricey side (it's no Taco Bell), but you definitely get what you pay for.
