Colorful dining room with views of the Hudson River
George M.

Nice venue with very good service. It's a " go-to" in Stony Point. Had the fajitas which were some of the best I've had. Will definitely return when I have the hankering for Mexican which is rare.

Beautiful day to sit out and have a nice dinner. They have a great all you can eat brunch. I opted for the chicken ,shrimp and Steak fajita. Was good. Nothing crazy. Rice was fresh. Waitstaff was on point Prices are great for the food they give you Plenty of parking.

One if my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. I was hesitant at first as i never really had an authentic Mexican food. My parents and sister told me try this one time. And OMG why did they not told me about this place sooner?! Aside from food they also have a very mice view! Just a heads up go in earlier or weekdays as weekends it tend to be so full and parking is so hard! Going back to food, it was amazing, service was exceptional and our server was the best!! He was standing outside and cater to our every need! Will definitely be back!

Playa Cancun Margarita

I only went in for a drink and some appetizers with my husband. The place is beautiful, surrounded by water. Definitely a nice vibe. The staff was very friendly and welcoming as well. They accommodated to our preferences and how we wanted our quesadillas. The only drawback is that they don't really have any happy hour specials. Everything is the same price prices are a bit on the high end. But I don't mind coming back and trying their dinner.

Guacamole

If Mexican food with panoramic water views is your vibe, I advise you come here pronto. Every bit and bite of our experience was scrumptious. This includes nachos + guac, fish tacos and chicken tostadas. All made to perfection. Friendly chatty servers made our visit even more enjoyable. Can't wait to come back!

Two friends and I stopped in after hiking at Bear Mountain. We were grateful that they accommodated us at an outdoor table after a small wait. At our request they turned on the propane heaters which we really appreciated. The tables could've used a little more spacing but by the time we were escorted to the area, other diners had already left so we got the full 6+ feet of space from other diners. Playa Cancun's menu is substantial! All types of enchiladas, burritos, tacos etc. and all of the food was well spiced and large in portion. They also have some epically sized margaritas. It is really good Mexican food. Unfortunately the service was a little uncoordinated. Each stage of dinner was struck with some sort of delay. The waiter seemed to be slightly confused or forgetful about what drinks we ordered and then it seemed like the bar took a while to make the drinks. One of my companions asked for a spicy sauce. It was forgotten so she had to ask again. Another server stopped just short of handing us another table's order. I couldn't help but notice the glitches pile up. Bottom line: I would still go again but I'd be wary of the service timing and teamwork.

Seafood soup
Gabriel D.

Love this place!!! The drinks are fire (best margaritas in town) because they actually use fresh limes. The service is great and the ambiance feels homey. I'm in love with their seafood soup, chicken nachos, guacamole, steak with onions, and many more. I will say that sometimes the yellow rice is a bit cold and not fresh but apart from that this is my go to Mexican spot.

Nachos
Shivani S.

Such a cute spot by the water. We came here and sat outside as it was a sunny day out. The virgin piña colada was delicious. The nachos with jalapeño were really good. The vegetarian combo platter was also so yummy. Everything is shareable. Service was a little slow but overall we enjoyed.

Decent food but we waited over 1 hour for our food. Nice ambience but they can improve the quality and also the timing of the service.

How's the brunch?

Our brunch consists of a variety of all you can eat small plates of Mexican specialties made to order. It also includes bottomless mimosas of various flavors including mango mimosas, pomegranate mimosas and so much more. It is truly a unique brunch… 

Anyone know where you can find menu online?

I'm looking also. They have a FB page. Maybe ask them.

The Rib Eye Gratinado was flavorful and satisfying, with the melted cheese, sautéed mushrooms, and roasted potatoes all working really well together. The Steak Chimichurri con Papas was just as good, with a nicely cooked steak, crispy fries, and a homemade chimichurri sauce that brought everything together perfectly. Both dishes were packed with flavor and felt like standouts on the specials menu. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you want hearty, well-made food.

Taking a look on Yelp, we found this place to be one of the highest rated in the area. We arrived and remarked on how lovely and clean the restaurant and bar area looked. We sat at the bar and we were greeted by our waitress/bartender. After reviewing the menu, we ordered iced tea and a side of guacamole to go with the complementary chips and salsa. For our main course, I ordered their house garden salad, adding blackened salmon rare while my wife asked for their chicken tacos. It seemed to take a little longer to get our meals. There were only two other tables taken during our visit. When our meals did arrive, they were well presented and delicious! If we were in this area for an extended time, we would probably visit again; however, we depart on Thursday.
