7118 S Padre Island Dr, Corpus Christi 78412 • 361-980-3991 |

Description:
SOUTH CORPUS CHRISTI. From the outside, La Playa looks like your standard Mexican joint, and its brick facade and palm tree-heavy landscaping differ little from other nearby eateries. Inside, however, it's a whole different story, and the hot pink motif tips you off that this place is somewhat different. Indeed, regulars laud La Playa's unusual, stuffed-then-fried avocados. More substantial items like fried Gulf shrimp, Texas-style fajitas, and zesty fresh fish also get extremely high marks. |

Recio's |

3150 S Alameda St, Corpus Christi 78404 • 361-888-4040 |
|
|
| |
Description:
SOUTH CORPUS CHRISTI. A classic South Texas taqueria, Recio's stands out with cooked-to-order taquitos, which are widely considered some of the tastiest in Corpus Christi. In addition to famous stuffed-then-folded shells, the casual eatery serves homemade fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, and burritos that are so good, you'll swear they came right out of some sweet abuela's kitchen. As for the scene, a pleasant yet subdued decor highlighted by local artwork sets the stage. |
