    Tacos
    Cassandra A.

    My new favorite spot! Tacos are 10/10 and it's convenient for those leaving the gym next door

    Al pastor taco & asada chico tacos
    Sierrah T.

    Just walked in after the gym to check it out and OMG the Al pastor is so good!!! That's always my go-to but it is incredibly flavorful here. The Asada was also delicious, I couldn't figure out which I loved more. The server was also super welcoming and nice. Recommended that those were his favorites. Will definitely come back!

    This place is super expensive, and not authentic food at all!! The owner doesn't give the automated receipt if you request it he makes up excuses to not give it away. Very suspicious!! Review on food... Tostada de Pata: super hard and no flavor at all Gordita de Chicharron: was super oily and hard masa shell, the Chicharron was not cooked the traditional way Tacos de Canasta: not good, super thick handmade tortilla and nothing like a traditional taco de canasta Consome: super watery and missing flavor Pambazo was ok Alambre: didn't come with tortillas they only put one hand made tortilla splitting in Little pieces the taste was reasonable Taco de chorizo was good

    Tacos de asada, pastor, chorizo

    This place is my to go spot whenever I want good authentic Mexican food. The service and people are great. The restaurant is always clean. I drive all the way from Lancaster it's about a 2 to 3 hr drive and it never disappoints. I love coming here for tacos burritos and tortas and anything I've gotten is always well proportioned. Thank you guys and keep doing what you're doing.

    Torta de pierna

    Their food is great. Everyone says their food taste good. Their tortas are huge and my respects to anyone who can finish them in one sitting. I love their tacos and gorditas.

    Carne Asada Torta...YUMMY & HUGE!

    Finally tried this little family owned Mexican restaurant in a local shopping center by our house. Wish we would have tried it sooner...we've had the street tacos & carne asada Torta and they were all so yummy!! Everything is so fresh & authentic. The cashier is always so friendly and a Dodgers Fan...YAY!! This is our new go to when we want to get authentic Mexican food to go!!

    So delicious!

    The tacos were really good I recommend the carnitas, pastor, and canasta tacos. The horchata was also very tasty

    Ultimate Nachos with Carnitas
    MyMy T.

    I love this place! First time here right after my scalp massaging appt next door at Hi Lite Hair. Decided to pick up some nachos. Couldn't find it on the menu so I asked the kind gentleman. Looked like he was a one man show. He asked if I wanted everything on there and of course I said yes! He hooked us up big time. It was so good!!! Thank you for your kind service and delicious food.

    A small little family owned Mexican restaurant located right next to a gym. I decided to stop by after a workout and Surprisingly the food was great! There was also complimentary chips and salsa if you dined in. Service was excellent and the food was delicious while being affordable at the same time. 3 Carnitas Tacos - $6

    Chicharron taco de canasta
    Victor M.

    Came here tonight after the gym. Im honestly glad i found this family owned spot! It's rare finding a spot that makes their own tortillas. Despite being short staffed tonight, they provided with top notch service.

    Carne asada and al pastor, delicious

Scotty took what was already a great date night and made it truly memorable. Not only was he the best server we've had since we started dining at Puesto, but I'd go so far as to say he was one of the best servers I've ever had anywhere. Scotty had a calm, understated demeanor that was part of his charm. He was genuine, attentive, extraordinarily kind, and somehow managed to keep my Diet Coke with lime full the entire evening. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and was always there at just the right moment. Best of all, he laughed at my dad jokes. While the food was outstanding, Scotty made the experience even better. His service elevated an already great meal into an exceptional evening. We will absolutely be requesting Scotty's section every time we visit Puesto Anaheim.

I usually have enough leftovers to take home and have for lunch the next day. Parking is a bit sparse, but there's residential spots available next door and within walking distance (as well as my favorite romance bookstore, Heartbound Bookshop). All their dishes are made to order, so please have some grace and be patient with their kitchen. As I always say, you can't rush perfection!

    I visited today because we were in the area and were craving menudo. The restaurant was busy, but…read morewe were seated right away, which was a plus. The agua de melón was delicious, and the side of beans was excellent. We also ordered a plain quesadilla, and it was surprisingly really good. The menudo itself was just okay--not bad, but nothing special. The reason I'm giving 2 stars isn't because the staff were rude, but they definitely weren't friendly or welcoming. My biggest concern, however, was what I witnessed with the condiments. When you order menudo, they bring a plate with limes, onions, and chili. I watched two employees clear tables, throw away some items, but keep the unused onions and uncut lime wedges from customers' plates and take them back into the kitchen to be served again. Even if I didn't use all of the onions or limes, that doesn't mean I didn't touch them. Reusing food that has already been on a customer's table is unsanitary and unacceptable. After seeing that, it made me wonder whether other items, like leftover chips, might also be reused. Whether or not that's the case, what I witnessed was enough to make me lose confidence in their food handling practices. Unfortunately, I won't be returning

The restaurant is located in the middle of Downtown Disney, with the entrance tucked off to the side. Just make sure you don't mistake it for Centrico! The service was amazing from start to finish. We were greeted by a hostess downstairs, who then had another hostess upstairs escort us to our table. Since the dining area is upstairs, you can either take the stairs or use the elevator. Our server, Alyssa, was incredibly attentive and helpful. She gave my fiancée some great recommendations and helped her make a few choices. The gentleman who brought out our food was also very informative and took the time to explain each dish as he delivered it. The food and drinks, from the appetizers all the way to dessert, were amazing. We started with drinks. My fiancée ordered the Maya-Tai, while I got the Sangria. We both enjoyed our drinks, but we ended up ordering two more glasses of the Sangria because we liked it that much! The first food item to arrive was the half-dozen oysters (not pictured because we were too impatient!). They tasted incredibly fresh, although we did encounter some shell debris in a few of them. We also shared the Pulpo Enamorado, which is grilled octopus served with tuna aioli, salsa macha, and pickled vegetables. This was one of our favorite dishes, and I highly recommend it as a shareable small plate. My fiancée ordered the Enchiladas de Pollo--shredded chicken wrapped in corn tortillas and served with salsa verde, avocado, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and queso fresco. I ordered the Lamb Barbacoa, which was slow-cooked and served with a pinto bean purée, mint jocoque, sweet pickled jalapeños, and a side of corn tortillas. Both entrees were absolutely delicious. The flavors were well-balanced, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Overall, we had an amazing experience. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere all impressed us, and we definitely recommend giving this place a try. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu--and, of course, getting the Sangria again. I highly recommend getting the pitcher if you're dining with a group!

Came in for a little date night on a Saturday evening. The whole staff was friendly and accommodating, always quick to refill drinks or clear empty plates. We started off with some delicious and spicy oysters which were topped with a shrimp! We also had to try the Chori-brussels which are flash fried Brussels sprouts with chorizo, balsamic reduction, and Oaxacan cheese. For drinks we got a Santo Dia, a whiskey based cocktail with watermelon, lime, and fizz served over ice. We also ordered the Spicy margarita which had watermelon habanero, lime, and hibiscus flavors. They were both delicious and refreshing, the spicy marg had a good kick to it. For dinner we got a caesar salad, the ribeye plate, and the Urbana burger. We both loved the dressing on the caesar, it's made in house and it shows. The ribeye was cooked perfectly with a delicious herb butter on top, a really good steak sauce on the side, and thick cut fries. The ribeye wasn't the highest quality but it tasted good, the fries were perfect. My fiancé got the burger which had chorizo, melted queso Oaxaca, and an egg on top. Not gonna lie it was absolutely delish! I want to come back just for the burger. All in all we had a great time and I would definitely come back for some other menu items, especially to try more of their margs and specialty cocktails. Thanks Urbana!
