    The food was really delicious. For me the alcohol drinks were too strong, but for my husband, they were not strong enough. The rice is really good, andI hope that you like black bean, because that is all that they serve, they were very good with the rice combo. The short rib enchilada was good, the sauce was what made it taste good. All of the tacos were very good. The kids meals were good too. We dined outside, it was very comfortable for a seating of 10 people. Overall, we had a fun time there , it was my first time dining at Puesto in Concord.

    I sat at the bar and waited and was not greeted for 26 minutes. It was not that busy . There was one bartender and she was on the phone and also helping and talking to the same couple for a long time . Then I ordered food and they forgot the food order. So I ordered a drink and she was busy with another table so after 45 minutes they sat me. They never brought the food or the drink.. after 50 minutes I left after only having water

    We visited Puesto after a team building activity nearby. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of food, as I figured this may be more of a fast food place given it's location and the ratings on Yelp, but was convenient to the group. We sat outside so noise level wasn't an issue. The flavors of the food were very good, Mexican food with a healthy kick. I ordered the grilled shrimp bowl which included, rice, beans, corn, guac, salsa, pickled onions, and well the shrimp with a side of blue corn tortillas. Everything was great and looked pretty too. Unfortunatley, I did not get any pictures before devouring my plate.

    They wanted to charge $10 for a side of extra cheese sauce. Tried to charge me extra for a drink I had already paid for at the bar and some rice that never showed up. Our waitress seemed to actively ignore us when we were trying to get the check, after 15 mins we ended up asking someone else. The tacos were great but its like 9-11$ per taco (single tortilla)

    Overpriced for the amount of food you get, definitely huge markups to pay for the space and lease of the building. Drinks were great, but food was mediocre and service was lacking.

    Waiter was great. Drinks were average: margarita was too sweet. Food is overpriced for what you get. It’s basically an overpriced Chipotle! Feel free to skip as you’re not missing much.

    Food was great, but drinks didn’t come out until after everyone had finished their meal. Asked two different servers and were blown off both times, “sorry sir, the bar is really backed up”. Seriously? We ordered the drinks before appetizers and main course 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Hostess got us seated early for our reservation which was much appreciated! Food was delicious - lots of options, flavourful. Drinks were also tasty but overall this spot is very pricey. Our server was friendly but the poor woman was slammed. Not enough staff or so it appeared but we enjoyed the experience on the whole.

    The water they served us was room temperature, also all of our sodas were FLAT. The food was subpar to say the least for the price that you pay you would assume the food would be better however, it was not. I will definitely not be going back to this restaurant.
