About Puesto

Puesto offers a beautiful atmosphere, both indoors and outdoors, with great service and delicious food. The shaded patio provides a lovely spot to enjoy good music while dining. The ambiance is enhanced by a fantastic location at the Veranda, featuring large and open tables, a beautiful bar, and colorful decorations. The guacamole and chips are smooth and warm, though some reviews mention that the chips can be a little stale. The pazole tacos are a must-try, alongside fantastic options like chicken, carnitas, and filet mignon tacos, which have received fabulous reviews. The tacos are delicious, and favorites include the Baja Fish, Filet Mignon, and Carnitas. The vegan asparagus taco is also a good choice for large groups with dietary restrictions.

While some dishes, like the chilaquiles, may not impress, as they can lack flavor, the overall experience is usually enhanced by the attentive staff, including friendly servers who provide quick and efficient service, although service can be slow on occasion. Prices may be steep, starting at $10 to $12 per taco, with the carne asada plate around $45, but the upscale ambiance and quality food make it a great spot for special occasions. Highlights include the Short Rib Birria Plate, mushroom taco, and Cali bowls, though it’s recommended not to mix the bowls as the guacamole can alter the flavor. Overall, Puesto is a great spot for lunch or dinner, with excellent food, the best margaritas, and a family-friendly kids' meal option featuring 2 tacos or quesadillas, avocado, rice, and beans.
