LA PLAYA AZUL

La Playa Azul Café has been in business since 1976. The bases of our recipes were created long ago by my grandmother... Beatrice Rodriguez and are consider early California/Sonora style Mexican cuisine. Our red chile sauce is made from scratch using whole dry chiles just as women in Mexico have done for century's. Our chile relleno are as light as a soufflé and the beans we serve are the delicious pink beans just as my grandmother used... Over the years my husband and I have created dishes of our own from our travels to coastal cities in Mexico. Our visit to Zihuatanejo Mexico inspired my husband to create two of our signature seafood dishes Callo De Acha and Pescado En Salsa Verde. It gives us much pleasure to know that the food we serve is of the freshest and highest quality such as Wild White Mexican shrimp, Halibut and Mary's chicken to name a few.
