- OTOpenTable DinerLos Angeles •3 reviews5.0Dined on 1 Jan 2023Had a wonderful time celebrating my husband’s birthday with close friends. Service and quality of food was good. The salsas weren’t too impressive but guacamole was good. Sad that tortillas are extra cost but they do give you 4 of them which are kept hot inside the aluminum wrapping. Drinks are good and worth the price. Overall, we had a pleasant time. Thanks to the servers being so patient while we waited for a couple friends to arrive.More infoPuesto Mission Valley$$$$• Mexican• Mission Valley•4.6
