    Short a sweet review here. Just flew down from New York..This place is right down the street from the airport. What a beautiful restaurant!! Spacious, lovely decor, and the food was very yummy. Our server Maddie was super sweet and attentive...she told us about some great Happy Hour promotions..so they may very well see us again before we return to NY. I think I may have reviewed Carlos O'kellys ( which is across the street ) on my last trip down..they are good Mexican too..but for a little "higher end", This is the place. Come in for a cold Beer or a Margarita and a great meal. Enjoy!!

    The branch on the east side closed so Chris and I thought we'd drive to the west side to satisfy our craving. The place seemed bigger and has more seating area. It is bright and festive. We sat at the bar and placed our orders. We had the Bacon Wrapped Shrimp for appetizer. We've ordered this all the time and let me tell you this. It was way better than the ones we've had at their east location! The bacon, wrapped tightly around the huge shrimp was cooked perfectly! Chris said, "Wow!" Of course I had my Australian Sea Bass with Guerrero sauce and Chris had the same fish but the tomato based sauce. He said he likes that sauce the best among the 3.

    Chip, salsa and guacamole was good! Our meals weren't totally good but ok. Server was nice, he kept up on the chips for sure. Restaurant was clean, well lite. No my favorite

    Some of the worst Mexican food I have ever had. Didn't expect much being in Kansas and it definitely was bad.

    Food was mediocre. Not like it used to be in the past. Service is hit or miss too. Adult beverages…read morewere just ok. Place needs an update especially the tvs

    Let me start by saying in the past I've loved Playa Azul. I haven't been to Playa Azul in over 4…read moreyears (I don't live in Wichita anymore and decided to stop in). My sister and I went on Labor Day (Monday September 1st of 2025) for a quick bite and break from being at St. Francis Hospital. This was around 4pm. It was just a couple of other tables there so it wasn't super busy at all. Our waiter was nice and friendly. Food was delicious. I'd give it an 8.5/10. I had the Chile Relleno Mexicanos. It's fried and topped with steak, white queso, and pico (8/10). Comes with rice and beans. Their rice was definitely a 10/10. Some authentic Hispanic restaurants lack flavor in their Mexican rice but not Playa. Refried beans were cool, standard 7/10. The chips and salsa are 6/10 and pretty mid in comparison to some other Mexican restaurants I've been to. My sister had a combination plate with rice and beans, that she enjoyed. We ordered margaritas, mango and strawberry, 7/10. All in all, food was great and it has been in the past. My issue comes with the customer service experience AFTER dining in. Both my sister and I were charged TWICE. We only ate at this restaurant once. We were charged for the amount of the original menu items plus tip we left. Then charged once more for menu items without tip. My sister noticed it on her bank account Wednesday, so she called and spoke with a lady who wasn't rude. She just mentioned if both charges went through (no longer pending) to come in and they would review. Today (Thursday September 4th of 2025), I noticed that both charges went through, and were no longer pending in my account. I called and spoke with a guy. On the first call he asked for the last 4 digits of my card and my phone number. Said he'd look into it and call me back. Hours later I called him back to follow up. He said that the "system doesn't double charge." He was antagonistic and definitely lacking customer service. Apparently your system does double charge as it happened to two people who ate at your restaurant. Either that or you all, who work there are entering in information incorrectly! Also, when was he going to call back and inform me that he looked into it and "their system doesn't double charge," and that I'd need to come in and show my account statement so we can "look at it together?" As you can see in a photo I uploaded below, I was charged TWICE! No one needs to scam or lie for some food! I paid and TIPPED! I WILL NOT BE BACK! How you talk to and handle people matters.
