"Playa Amor is inside of a never-ending shopping center in Long Beach and, from the outside, looks like a knockoff Chevy’s. But Playa Amor is much more than just sizzling fajitas and whisky limeades. This modern spot serves fantastic Mexican/Southwestern food in a low-key party atmosphere that’s great for having one-too-many margaritas with your friends. There’s a wrap-around patio facing a not-sad pond, live music on the weekends, and mole tater tots you’re going to want to get involved with." - brant cox
