We all love tacos, but if you're looking for a change Cheesters is a great family run restaurant. One of its best features it that it's not on 5th Avenue. The meals are a little pricy, but the portions are huge! We recommend sharing.

Playa also started a bicycle system with bike stations all around the city. It's very easy and cheap to use with the app 'Bici Playa'. You can get a daily, weekly, or yearly pass. It's a great way to see the city, get some exercise or go where you need to go! We are happy to answer any questions you may have about it. We use it every week.
