- GGiovannaSan Diego •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agowe always love our time at Puesto, the food is very good and we very much appreciate their attention to food allergies! Everyone in the family can always find something delicious to eat! Often it is very energetic, so not the serious conversation type of place. Staff is very friendly and goes out of the way to ensure you have a great meal. Looking forward to going back!More infoPuesto La JollaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• La Jolla•4.6
- DDianeVIPSan Diego •14 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoManager Lisa was the best, most service-oriented manager I have ever seen. She kicked in when service was a bit slow, checked in on us every so often, comped us a drink when we waited a bit too long for our order, and just made a slow evening into a spectacular one. A great manager. Well done Lisa!More infoRED O Taste of Mexico - La JollaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Mexican• La Jolla•4.4
