    Coctel de camaron
    Kathy R.

    Food was delicious and service was good. They did not hold back in filling the plate. No complaints.

    Loved the food! The service was amazing and I honestly loved eating here 10/10.The prices are also very affordable and reasonable for the amount they give you.The ambiance was very lovely loved the way everyone would ask for help

    Huevos a la Mexicana
    Dulse Natalie M.

    I've been here before, food is good. I got the VAMPIRE tacos. Yes you read that correct Vampire tacos, which have cheese, the meat of choice, guacamole, cilantro and onions. See when they said cheese I expected the cheese they use on a quesadilla, stringy. But to my surprise it was a hamburger krafts white cheese! I don't know if they ran out or it's really made with that cheese but that specific cheese made the tacos a bit salty. The tacos were good but every time I bit into it and it had cheese it was salty. It's a good idea but maybe a different cheese would be better than a sandwich cheese. The tacos are small and priced at $2 each. 5/10 My mom tried huevos a la Mexicana and she said they were good and spicy. 8/10 This place isn't that clean. At first glance everything seems to be clean but as you sit there waiting to be served you start noticing that it's not so clean. Cleanliness 3/10 Service 5/10 Food taste 6/10 Price 8/10 Location 8/10 (inside a swap meet Aka flea market) Over all 5.6/10

    Shrimp cocktail

    Restaurant in the food court area. They have a good sized menu, but I would definitely recommend the shrimp cocktail since that is what I had. All food seemed good that everyone else had in my group.

    (Long detailed review) I had the worst experience today at this restaurant! I went to have lunch with my kids the lady who sat us seemed nice at first but as our lunch continued i noticed a few things that were kind of odd and dont know if it's me over reacting or if we were treated differently by this one server. So first off she asked what we would like to drink we order 2 waters and a sprite . Nothing was unusual until she brought us 2 warm bottled waters and a can of Sprite . No big deal, right ? Well, i was confused at first because everyone in the restaurant had Styrofoam cups with drinks in them . So i asked her for cups with ice she brings them, but what i want to understand is why she did not give us water from the fountain drink machine or soda from the machine . I saw a man come to the register with a cup asking for water, and she filled it up with the cold water, and he didn't pay he said, "Thank you to her, and leave ... so i thought it was odd that she gave him free water and us warm bottled water and charged us for it and not that guy... when we were dining in there and are paying customers? So i said forget it not a big deal until i saw her bring other customers their soda with a cup and ice in it for their bottled soda ! Like what? Am i overreacting for how she treated us ? I mean, i paid my bill, but after noticing those things and how she made us feel, i did not leave a tip at all and will not be returning. (Pictures are of the water she served the guy from the water machine they have sitting next to the aguas frescas) (another pic of what we were served) and another pic of the soda fountain.

    La verdad llevo 2 años trabajando en el Swapmeet y siempre que ordeno enchiladas me las dan con casi nada de pollo , es la pura tortilla casi y sin salsa. Que coraje! Y el pollo que le ponen trae huesos . Que horror la verdad.

Not just…read morebecause the food was delicious, as usual, but because we had the incredible fortune of having Scotty as our server. Scotty took what was already a great date night and made it truly memorable. Not only was he the best server we've had since we started dining at Puesto, but I'd go so far as to say he was one of the best servers I've ever had anywhere. Scotty had a calm, understated demeanor that was part of his charm. He was genuine, attentive, extraordinarily kind, and somehow managed to keep my Diet Coke with lime full the entire evening. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and was always there at just the right moment. Best of all, he laughed at my dad jokes. While the food was outstanding, Scotty made the experience even better. His service elevated an already great meal into an exceptional evening. We will absolutely be requesting Scotty's section every time we visit Puesto Anaheim.

I usually have enough leftovers to take home and have for lunch the next day. Parking is a bit sparse, but there's residential spots available next door and within walking distance (as well as my favorite romance bookstore, Heartbound Bookshop). All their dishes are made to order, so please have some grace and be patient with their kitchen. As I always say, you can't rush perfection!

    I visited today because we were in the area and were craving menudo. The restaurant was busy, but…read morewe were seated right away, which was a plus. The agua de melón was delicious, and the side of beans was excellent. We also ordered a plain quesadilla, and it was surprisingly really good. The menudo itself was just okay--not bad, but nothing special. The reason I'm giving 2 stars isn't because the staff were rude, but they definitely weren't friendly or welcoming. My biggest concern, however, was what I witnessed with the condiments. When you order menudo, they bring a plate with limes, onions, and chili. I watched two employees clear tables, throw away some items, but keep the unused onions and uncut lime wedges from customers' plates and take them back into the kitchen to be served again. Even if I didn't use all of the onions or limes, that doesn't mean I didn't touch them. Reusing food that has already been on a customer's table is unsanitary and unacceptable. After seeing that, it made me wonder whether other items, like leftover chips, might also be reused. Whether or not that's the case, what I witnessed was enough to make me lose confidence in their food handling practices. Unfortunately, I won't be returning

The restaurant is located in the middle of Downtown Disney, with the entrance tucked off to the side. Just make sure you don't mistake it for Centrico! The service was amazing from start to finish. We were greeted by a hostess downstairs, who then had another hostess upstairs escort us to our table. Since the dining area is upstairs, you can either take the stairs or use the elevator. Our server, Alyssa, was incredibly attentive and helpful. She gave my fiancée some great recommendations and helped her make a few choices. The gentleman who brought out our food was also very informative and took the time to explain each dish as he delivered it. The food and drinks, from the appetizers all the way to dessert, were amazing. We started with drinks. My fiancée ordered the Maya-Tai, while I got the Sangria. We both enjoyed our drinks, but we ended up ordering two more glasses of the Sangria because we liked it that much! The first food item to arrive was the half-dozen oysters (not pictured because we were too impatient!). They tasted incredibly fresh, although we did encounter some shell debris in a few of them. We also shared the Pulpo Enamorado, which is grilled octopus served with tuna aioli, salsa macha, and pickled vegetables. This was one of our favorite dishes, and I highly recommend it as a shareable small plate. My fiancée ordered the Enchiladas de Pollo--shredded chicken wrapped in corn tortillas and served with salsa verde, avocado, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and queso fresco. I ordered the Lamb Barbacoa, which was slow-cooked and served with a pinto bean purée, mint jocoque, sweet pickled jalapeños, and a side of corn tortillas. Both entrees were absolutely delicious. The flavors were well-balanced, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Overall, we had an amazing experience. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere all impressed us, and we definitely recommend giving this place a try. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu--and, of course, getting the Sangria again. I highly recommend getting the pitcher if you're dining with a group!

Came in for a little date night on a Saturday evening. The whole staff was friendly and accommodating, always quick to refill drinks or clear empty plates. We started off with some delicious and spicy oysters which were topped with a shrimp! We also had to try the Chori-brussels which are flash fried Brussels sprouts with chorizo, balsamic reduction, and Oaxacan cheese. For drinks we got a Santo Dia, a whiskey based cocktail with watermelon, lime, and fizz served over ice. We also ordered the Spicy margarita which had watermelon habanero, lime, and hibiscus flavors. They were both delicious and refreshing, the spicy marg had a good kick to it. For dinner we got a caesar salad, the ribeye plate, and the Urbana burger. We both loved the dressing on the caesar, it's made in house and it shows. The ribeye was cooked perfectly with a delicious herb butter on top, a really good steak sauce on the side, and thick cut fries. The ribeye wasn't the highest quality but it tasted good, the fries were perfect. My fiancé got the burger which had chorizo, melted queso Oaxaca, and an egg on top. Not gonna lie it was absolutely delish! I want to come back just for the burger. All in all we had a great time and I would definitely come back for some other menu items, especially to try more of their margs and specialty cocktails. Thanks Urbana!
