Playita Mariscos

Mexican food at its best … outstanding mariscos There is a plethora of Mexican restaurants in LA, and even an abundance of really good Mexican food, but there are a handful of standout places (from the high end to the food truck). And when it comes to mariscos -- various fish dishes -- Playita Mariscos in Silver Lake is one of those in the top tier. At the southern tip of Silver Lake, on Sunset Blvd, this is a small place, with a couple of outside benches, but the food is outstanding. The Aguachile is really good with big meaty shrimp, though it is also certainly not skimping on the chili -- might be a bit spicy for some. If that is the case I would have the ceviche (ideally the mixed one) and probably both of the tacos (shrimp and fish). You will get amazing food, full of flavors
