We frequent La Puesta whenever my family comes to town to visit. It's always great food and drinks and wonderful service. Taylor was our waiter last night and he was lovely as were the rest of the staff who helped serve our table. I waited at the bar for a bit for my family to show up and the bartenders are always friendly and fun.

Our food was good. The beans were cold but other than that it was good. Service was super nice and friendly just a little slow (but it was kinda busy and we were in no rush so we didn't mind). All the drinks were tasty. We had the Tijuana Ceasar and Cantina Chopped Salad which both were fresh and had good dressing. we did several mix n max street tacos to try a lot of different options our top favorites were Cochinita, Ranchero Shrimp, and Pastor The carne asada and viva...

-La Puerta is a gem in San Diego! The food was very good, but what really stood out was the ambience and the service. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, and the staff went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food paired with an even better vibe.
