What Brandon Kristofer Pinco Cabanillas doesn't like about Puesto La Jolla:
The tacos were great as always, but they put us in a table that was squished right up next to the bar. It was very uncomfortable for the waiters trying to get by and made the experience worse. View all feedback. What jana könke likes about Puesto La Jolla:
Absolutely our favorite place to eat when we visit La Jolla. Puesto takes fresh, delicious Mexican food to the next level. We’ve been dining here for years and every meal we’ve had has been top notch. If you’re looking for delicious, high quality, fresh food in a fun atmosphere you don’t want to miss it.

Birthday. There was a wedding party so noisy, but good.

Puesto's is a beloved spot for celebrations, with delicious food that consistently impresses. While some reviewers noted issues with service or minor food discrepancies, the standout dishes like coconut margaritas and vegan options keep customers coming back. The ambiance, quality of dishes, and attentive service make Puesto a top choice for enjoyable dining experiences in San Diego. Whether celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a great meal, Puesto delivers on all fronts.

Dry under cooked rice, beans have no flavor, 1 taco for $12 not worth the time Bunch of white college kids cooking could not be considered authentic in any way

Very good overall. Posted the bill though on the table whilst still in the middle of our food without asking. Felt a bit abrupt. Overall though very good
