My family and I celebrated a birthday dinner at Puesto. As soon as we were seated I liked the atmosphere, it was a calm Wednesday so i’m unsure if other nights may be louder. Our server was very attentive and gave us some nice recommendations on desert and tacos. The tacos were good, but the star of the show was definitely the mango and passion fruit ceviche. The flavors were amazing! We ended our dinner with a choco flan that was delicious, it was soft and crunchy on top. We will definitely be back!

Great experience! I went for my birthday last night and the service went above and beyond. They hand wrote me a card and the staff had all signed and I thought that was very sweet. They stored my cake in the fridge and sliced it for me and even provided a candle. I will definitely be coming back in the future! Thank you guys!
