Food was amazing. Service was really subpar.
Food was great and beautifully served. Great service. I will definitely be back!
Food is different and wonderful. Staff are attentive and sweet. Lovely experience.
Prior to pandemic, we frequented the Park Place location in Irvine. this was our first tie at Los Olivos Puesto....it was fantastic. Great ambiance, great service, food as good as it was last year. So happy this is our new, 'neighborhood' location.
Went here on date. Good food and good atmosphere. The outdoor seating was nice. The potato taquitos were delicious. My date really liked the place.
Always love going to Puesto!
I made a reservation earlier in the week but didn’t get sat in the actual patio dining area of the restaurant. We got seated in their overflow seating outside of the patio dining so we felt like we were eating in the parking lot.
Went for my friend’s birthday as noted on reservations. The food is always great. But the outside dining can be loud with the traffic on jamboree. The night was not especially busy but sadly on this night the service was missing and mediocre.
Always great tacos. They’re doing their best with limited outdoor seating. A bit over priced for the amount of food but always great consistent service and food quality.
Service was exceptional. Food was great. Drinks were good.
Great food, nice place
If you enjoy Mexican food that is not the typical fare, then this is the place to go! The taco choices are great and the food is freshly prepared making for a great meal. Margaritas are very good along with other drink options.
I recommend making reservations! Their patio seating is very cute. Best thing on their menu is their amazing tacos! They are ALL exploding with flavor! Fire pit table seating available. Best for date nights and group dinners!
Food was excellent. Our server was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere on the patio was nice and relaxing.
Service has been slow the few times I’ve dined here. Never get drink refills. Food was average for the price paid
Maybe we will try again post-covid. Service left a lot to be desired. Food quality and value was not what it was the first few times we visited.
Birthday dinner with friends. We are in love with the tacos - especially the Quesabirria and the Verduras! And the mango margarita was delicious! One of our favorite places to dine.
It was great.
We were celebrating a birthday however the server seemed less than enthused and did not acknowledge the birthday at our table.
Amazing food and service!!
Always good food and good service! Great place for weekend lunch as the outdoors is fun and pleasant.
Food was good, but menu was limited. Very expensive for was I got. Service was not good. Had to wait even though had a reservation.
Food is always great!!!
My first time trying Puesto. Met our team from work for the first time in almost a year. The location, outdoor seating, food and drinks were amazing! I only wished they had a little more to offer in terms of Happy Hour drink/food specials. I will definitely be back.
My wife and I took her sisters there for the first time since its a go to spot for us. Our waiter Lawerence was very rude and seemed he was new beacuse he didnt know much. Everything we asked for they where either out of like Flour Tortillas( how do you run out of tortilla's you serve mostly tacos). They messed up our order and when they did get us our food it was completly cold. The Manager Cathy i believe her name was came over and didnt seem to care when we told her about what happened she just started to take the plates of food away which we where still eating. She said "you said you didnt like it so im taking it away and than came back and brought us our check. Also i dont think they care about Covid-19 regulations anymore cuz they where just reaching and grabbing as they please hovering right over us and didnt seem to care about being distant. This a place My wife and I go to once a week since we live right down the street but the last couple times it has just got worse and worse and this time was just extremly horrible. Never again will we be going there.
Puesto is one of our favorite restaurants. Do yourself a favor and get the Filet taco, Lobster taco, and Sea Bass ceviche.
Nice outdoor patio and it’s nice they don’t squeeze us in like sardines. The service is always nice and never pushy. Great margaritas.. be prepared for over priced tacos but I get why prices are higher these days. I’d rather pay more than have them sacrifice my own space. Make a reservation - saves time.
First day open but they were great
We LOVE Puesto! Always top notch friendly service, great food, and atmosphere. We go there virtually every Friday. Location did a great job pivoting and managing covid rules and still delivering an excellent experience. We'll continue to support this restaurant with takeout and delivery. thanks Puesto Los Olivos hand in there we're with you.
Spent the last evening before restaurant shutdowns in Orange County at Puesto. Our server was warm and friendly. The margaritas were tasty and flavorful. The taco of the month chicken mole was outstanding. If you’re a vegetarian try the verduras taco it’s delicious. Can’t wait to dine here again.
Mole was not what I had hoped for. Very strong in red pepper flavor and lacked the complexity of dark chocolate and other spices. Mushroom taco had more red onion then mushrooms. Shrimp was great.
Service was terrible. Food was terrible
Not at all impressed with our dining experience. I understand that we have to be outside but that was the least of our worries. The heat lamp did not keep us warm and we were basically sitting in the parking lot. The food was terrible. The prawns were awful that were in our bowl and had to be tossed out, the guacamole tasted like soap, and everything else was mediocre at best. We spent $140 on three meals since my husband and I shared, and we didn’t even order drinks. Absolutely will never be back again. This was our third visit… Not sure why we continue to go back.
Love the selection of tacos. The verduras taco is my favorite. Dining outside here is so relaxing and enjoyable. Get there ASAP before outdoor dining is prohibited.
Patio heaters made it a comfortable experience amidst the COVID requirements.
It was a great and pleasant experience. Great cozy friendly place. Great food and drinks.
This place is always amazing. Excellent service and the food is FIREEE!
Puesto is always a favorite of mine. I’m a San Diego native, so I usually hit up one of the locations close to home. My family was in the Irvine area so we decided to go to the Irvine location. This restaurant is always so consistent with how great the food and drinks are! I always order the puesto perfect margarita. It’s super refreshing and delicious. The tacos are always out of this world! I ordered two filet mignonette and one mushroom taco. I dream about these tacos. Always a pleasure to visit Puesto.
Great food and good service!
Service is awful! But the food is amazing.
