Playita Mariscos brings casual seafood to Silver Lake

Playita Mariscos sits on Sunset Boulevard in Silver Lake and has built a steady following, which you can see in its 4.5 stars across more than 600 Google reviews. At those prices, that kind of rating over a large number of visits means people keep coming back and telling their friends.

The setup suits the neighborhood. There is outdoor patio seating, which matters on a good LA evening, and the place handles groups without much fuss. They also do cocktails, takeout, and delivery, so it works whether you are sitting down with a few people or grabbing something on the way home.

For a budget seafood spot with a patio in Silver Lake, Playita earns its reputation the straightforward way: consistent food at a price that does not make you think twice about going back.
