We decided to eat outside although we were cautioned that it was very warm. The food was as usual excellent although my partner felt the Ibérico Pork was too greasy for her taste. We started with the Octopus which Perfectly COOKED. THE SIDE FUSHES IF CORN AND MUSHROOMS were BOTH EXCEELENT.

The corn masa cakes they serve at the beginning of the meal are worth the trip alone. Food was very good and service was excellent. Free valet parking in front. Very easy and comfortable dining experience. Would like to see less ala carte as far as the entrees go. Bill escalates quickly when you start adding on side dishes and appetizers.

Picked as a spontaneous dinner spot before dropping off our daughter at SDSU the next day, we enjoyed an amazing dinner, which compared to other high-end restaurants we have eaten at is very affordable and offers superior value.

We live close to the Park Hyatt. We haven’t dined at Ponto Lago for 2 years because the food is too spicy for us. Thanks to our server our meals came with the sauces on the side. The swordfish was delicious as were the scallop crudo and lobster taco. We can’t wait to return. The patio is lovely.
