" We were excited to try Puesto as it came highly recommended. The aesthetic of the restaurant is undeniably charming. The tacos we had were flavorful, but I felt there was a heavy focus on presentation over portion size. For the price, I would expect a bit more. Overall, a beautiful spot but pricey. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our group had quite a feast at Puesto! We tried a variety of tacos, and each one was delicious, packed with flavor, especially the octopus taco! Service was friendly and swift, though I did think the drinks were a bit expensive. Still, a great place for good vibes and excellent food! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos here are sensational! Especially loved the tamarind shrimp. While the prices are higher than your average Mexican place, the creative combinations and fresh ingredients make it worthwhile. I also appreciated the accommodating staff, who answered all our questions about the menu. Perfect for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a good meal but was not as wowed as I'd hoped. The atmosphere was nice, but I feel the prices didn't match the portion sizes given. I loved the flavors, but I expected more bang for my buck—particularly with tacos being around $10 each. " (*Curated Review*)

" Puesto has a beautiful layout and a welcoming vibe. While I enjoyed my meal, I felt that the taco selections were less traditional than I had anticipated. While the food was creative, if you are looking for authentic Mexican flavors, this might not be your first choice. Service was excellent. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Puesto is fantastic; it's energetic and lively. We had a great server who was knowledgeable and attentive. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the hype for me. The tacos were good but not extraordinary. And at those price points, I expected more in terms of portion sizes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to love Puesto, but my last visit was a disappointment. The service was slower than usual, and the tacos seemed smaller than before. My favorites, the quesabirria and potato taquitos, were still decent, but the price kept rising while the quality felt stagnant. I hope they can get back to their earlier standards. " (*Curated Review*)
