Playa Blanca Restaurant

Very good food and nice beach!!

it was nice

The food, service, and atmosphere were excellent. A quiet and exclusive space. Suitable for families with children.

The fish and chips and crispy tuna rice were excellent, the service was great, and the overall atmosphere was very pleasant and quiet – not too crowded, ideal for eating and relaxing.

Highly Recommended

The food and service was very good - our waiter was super friendly and attentive to our needs. The prices for the food are reasonable and delicious. They close at 6 PM so we made an early dinner reservation but we easily could have walked in/not had a reservation. It's on the beach, so we had a lovely beach view. I think a lot of people come here for drinks / lunch but we really enjoyed our dinner and would absolutely come back / recommend! *Pictures are of the mahi mahi sandwich, Cesar salad, and prosciutto / arugula pizza.

20 minutes sitting and no service ever came to us

⭐ 1/5 — Shameful and completely misleading policy A truly shameful experience in Playa Blanca. We arrived at 3:45 PM and had to wait 45 minutes at reception due to their disastrous organization. As a result, we didn't get access to the beach until 4:30 PM. At that point, we were forced to spend a minimum of $50 USD just to access the beach. Already borderline excessive, but the most outrageous part was that they didn't explain at all that the restaurant closes at 6:00 PM, leaving us barely an hour and a half to "enjoy" the beach and order drinks under pressure. Instead of having a relaxing time as planned, we were constantly stressed about having to order quickly before closing time. It makes no sense. If we had known how things would really be, we would have definitely gone somewhere else. We had planned to stay until sunset and have a leisurely dinner, but that was impossible since everything closes early. This minimum spend policy makes no sense when you let customers in so late without clearly informing them. The worst part was the payment: an employee confirmed $50 USD for two people, we deliberately ordered for that amount, and then when it came time to pay, we were suddenly asked for more, with unexplained taxes and surcharges. In the end, we paid $75 USD for two cocktails and a tiny six-piece shrimp cocktail. The problem isn't just the price; it's the shameful way the terms change depending on who you speak to. We truly felt ripped off from beginning to end. Between the endless wait, the hidden hours, the late-night minimum spend requirement, and the inflated final bill, this experience felt more like a tourist trap than a high-end establishment. I strongly advise against it.
