We were touring the beaches and wanted to eat some Mexican food. Some places didn't rate too well. We were also looking for a dog-friendly patio. I called ahead and we decided to meet here. Party of 9 and 2 dogs. They have a large patio with picnic tables to the left of the restaurant. It was mostly dirt because of the large trees shading the area. They told us they were going to add a deck there as soon as they can get approval. The food and drinks were hand-made and really fresh. The staff was super friendly and polite. They brought the dogs water too. They did a great job handling our large party and it was dinner time so the whole place was full. Prices were decent too. read more

Service was sub par, all the waters stayed empty for about 5-10 min during our meal and she only checked on us maybe twice during the hour+ we were there. Very disappointing. Tacos, actually pretty good. But overshadowed by a poor experience. And the tiny guac was definitely not helping. read more

La Plancha - This... Is a $5 side of guacamole. Not even one avovado. - Mexican Near Me - St Simons Island, Georgia

Authentic Mexican Food in Brunswick! They have a dish that's Chicken Fajitas with Queso all over the top. Sorry we devoured it too fast for pics We like it so much we both order it Not a Fan of their Margaritas Most of their clientele is Mexican and most of them drink beer or soda. (I guess they aren't fans of the margaritas either) The TV is in Spanish along with the music read more

La Plancha totally satisfied our taco craving! It's a funky little spot on St Simon's with a great variety of drinks and Mexican fusion flare. I loved their complimentary salsa. Unlike regular restaurant-style salsa, it is a roasted tomato salsa, which was different and yummy. I started with the Paloma, which was a delicious blend of tequila, grapefruit juice, and club soda with a grapefruit garnish. I love their happy hour idea; they have happy hour from 3pm-5pm. When you come in, they punch a time card to show you what your drink price is. For example, if you come in at 3:00pm, your drink is only $3! For my meal, I ordered two tacos: the vegetable taco and the fish taco. I actually really enjoyed the veggie taco! It was a mixture of corn, sweet potato, zucchini, and guacamole. My only complaint was that the tortillas were really thin, which ended up in a soggy broken taco mess. However, the flavors were good so I would still go back for tacos in the future! read more

It was a busy Thursday night. The food came quickly, and the portions were more than I had expected. Friendly staff too

We had a wonderful time at LaPlancha! Wonderful Service, wonderful food and amazing drinks! We loved the vibe, we ate outside, it was a perfect evening. We will definitely be back! read more

Weather was cool enough to sit outside. Cute patio. Great fast service. We had salsa and chips, and brussel sprouts for apps. Both were fantastic. Veggie burrito, tacos, and veggie nachos all excellent. read more

I am blessed to have La Plancha right around the corner from my neighborhood. I can literally walk there, which is an added plus since they have the very best Margaritas in Georgia. Great Manager, Tanner, works diligently alongside his excellent and friendly staff to keep everything running smoothly. read more

I would've given an extra 1/2 star but not perfect. The shrimp diablo was the best I've ever had minus the undercooked rice. In fact, all the rice that came out was al dente. The chips and salsa app that comes complimentary was yummy but very different from other salsas I have tried. This was almost creamy... a thicker consistency maybe cooked peppers ground up? In the taco trio the grilled chicken was the best. The ground beef tasted authentic to Mexico and the fish taco was good too. The Colombian "favorite" actually wasn't our favorite but it came out in great presentation! Once again, the rice was undercooked. The refried beans however were on point and very flavorful! I love supporting these local businesses. read more

We had a great evening at La Plancha. Delicious, fresh food and super service. We tried the queso fundido and almost all of the menu tacos plus the special shrimp taco. Yum! We sat at the bar with Gabby. She makes wonderful margaritas and provides excellent, very friendly service. We will be back!! read more

Friendly service and wonderful food. I had the best quesadilla I have ever had. It was a veggie quesadilla and had sweet potatoes, which I love, included with other veggies. It was delicious. We will definitely eat here again when we return to SSI. read more

Totally dissatisfying. My gal pals and I who were vacationing in SS read all these awesome reviews. So we ordered pick up. First off something simple, like salads and burritos. They forgot part of the order. The steak burrito was ok. Nothing to write home about. The shrimp burrito was very tasty. My companions were a bit disappointed with their food. I will not be coming back. read more

The food at La Plancha is exceptional. Not just the entrees - even the side of beans has great flavor and complexity. This place really stands out. Every dish is well thought out and well prepared. And the service is attentive and top notch. La Plancha is also doing a great job with their social distancing protocols. The tables are spaced well apart, the entire staff stayed fully masked the whole time we were there, and a high level of hygiene was maintained. Really well done! read more

Best margarita and very reasonably priced. We had the chicken taco's with roasted peppers. Very tasty. Peppers were grilled to perfection. A little charred with the perfect 'kick' to excite the palette. Also ordered veggie quesadilla. When the friendly server saw my reaction to her explanation that sweet potatoes were in the dish she suggested a cheese quesadilla with roasted peppers. Wow! Amazing lunch. Great service and fun atmosphere. Definitely recommend! read more

My party of 6 stopped in for happy hour margaritas, but they weren't running happy hour specials. That didn't stop us! I had the Sweet Hot Rita. SOOOOOOOO good! It was definitely spicy, but delicious. I love spicy margaritas and the addition of cucumber really balanced the heat. I loved it so much I had to go back the next day for another one! We also had the salsa, queso, guacamole, and fundito. My favorites were the guacamole and fundito. DELISH! The salsa was good but my hubby thought it tasted like marinara sauce. Queso was good but a little runny when we had it. Can't wait to go back and try the rest of their food and have another margarita!! Not much seating inside but they offer to go and some seating outside. Highly recommend! read more

Hands down, these were the BEST steak tacos I have ever had anywhere. The steak was tender and it was clear that La Plancha deals in quality cuts of beef and knows how to season meat. Whenever I'm in St. Simons, I will be returning to La Plancha. read more

Small Mexican restaurant near Sea Palms neighborhood. Large selection of margaritas and different tequilas. Ordered three tacos with rice and beans. Chicken was moist and seasoned well. Pork taco with pineapple was great sweet and savory. Shrimp had a fair amount of shrimp. Great server and host. A lot of locals, good vibe. Will go back. read more

Outdoor area is dog friendly! Amazing margarita and great tacos and salsa. Ordered the spicy marg and Brussel sprout, shrimp, and chicken tacos. Dip trio was great too read more

I don't understand how this place can be rated 4.5 stars based on food. Our bartender was great, the guacamole really good, but the tacos are truly sub par. I mean WAY sub par. Pastor-dry. Short ribs-flavorless. Ground beef-bland. And they are pricey - $5 - $6 each and stingy portions for the price. My companion had chicken fajitas-it was OK, nothing special, but again, pricey. There are 5 other Mexican places on St. Simons. Only Bubba Garcia's is worse. read more

What more can you ask for? Good food, great service and pleasant atmosphere. Ordered some sort of giant enchiladas and enjoyed every bite.

Food has been excellent everytime! Maddie was our server and I can't say enough good things about her! Atmosphere has always made us feel welcome and laid back. The manager even came to our table to check on us. You just don't get this kind of service anymore read more

This was hands down my favorite mexican/Columbian place! There was no wait time, we were seated as soon as we came in. Our server Chelsea was amazing! Very courteous and very pleasant! Best service I've had in a long time! The food came out very quickly and was presented in a very nice way. The food and the service were amazing!!! Definitely will be returning when I visit again!! read more

In my case I had to re-download Yelp to place a review of this place it was that good. For an unassuming place the service is great and the food is second to none. I had the steak fajitas and they were the best I've had, hands down. Their trio of dips with corn chips is well worth it to get a great selection before your meal. We will be making sure we come by this place again! read more

So I'm speechless ! A man by the name of JJ served me , my mother and father . I'm back at home after 10years. Visiting from Alabama and my Goodness !! The service is amazing . It's a small feel good style restaurant with wonderful service JJ was very attentive and thorough. I had the tacos and street corn . My parents had 2 different types of quesadillas. Needless to say this is their new favorite spot as well as mine when I'm in town ! read more

Delicious carne asada tacos! Great fish tacos! The best guacamole! Amazing salsa and great drinks! They have REALLY come a long way since they first opened! read more

Hardly ever in the mood for Mexican/TexMex when we visit the area... but this time, we thought we'd give it a try. Glad we did... just goes to show you you can't go wrong visiting one of the Halyards group of restaurants. They really care and it shows in the little things and the big things. To start, the salsa is awesome... as is the guacamole. The food is fresh, tasty and bold. The service is very good and the drinks are even better. Bravo! read more

Street tacos were great! Guac is fresh and tasty, chips were warm & service was quick during busy lunch time. HOWEVER I'm a big salsa fan and theirs had zero flavor, zero spice to it...probably the worst salsa I've ever had. That being said, I'd go back for the tacos and guacamole! read more

1/2 off drink special is a draw, but the food is extremely expensive for what you get. $4.50 per taco and they are TINY. Cheese dip was delicious, but was small for $7. We dont plan on eating there again, but may go back for drinks & a cheese dip. read more

Came for early afternoon nachos and margaritas. Was so tasty decided to go back the following day for take out tacos. The tortillas were on point!!! And so were the fillings. Had the chicken, steak, shrimp, pork and ground beef. All of them were delightful but the shrimp and steak were outstanding. Rice and beans were flavorful and well made. Awesome little place in St Simon, give them your business. read more
