Tacos, tacos, and more tacos, each more delicious than the next. If you enjoy Taco Tuesday (or tacos any day really), tacos with layers and layers of flavor, try the innovative creations at Puesto Restaurant in Mission Valley.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Tacos are the specialty here. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Every month a Taco of the Month is highlighted. December is Chile en Nogada, which features chipotle seco, rehydrated and wrapped around ground beef picadillo (containing roasted poblano, dried cranberries and sunflower seeds). Top this with a traditional Nogada sauce of Mexican Crema and walnuts, pomegranate seeds and parsley.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Besides the taco of the month, the regular menu offers a fun selection of unique tacos which will not disappoint. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A Filet Mignon taco topped with avocado and a spicy pistachio serrano salsa or a Grilled Tamarindo Shrimp taco topped with a Tamarindo Chile sauce and classic guacamole. They recommend three tacos, which is a lot. Start with two and see if you want one more.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Another favorite is the \u201cEsquite\u201d corn side dish. Mexican corn drizzled with cotija cheese, accented with a slice of lime if you so desire- best! You could make a meal out of this and a taco.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At Puesto, even the guacamole is elevated. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Nogada Guacamole is a classic recipe with pomegranate, mango Pico de Gallo, Chile de Arbol and candied walnuts. That sounds crazy. But the layers and layers of flavor are an absolute delight.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Did someone say Margaritas? They are insane. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mango Margarita, Cucumber Margarita, Watermelon Margarita, or even try the spicy Hot Sauce Margarita. Others include Passionfruit, Fruit Cart (mango, pineapple, watermelon, cucumber, chamoy and Tajin), or the Good, Good Cadillac Margarita. So many tasty options.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a Tequila or Mezcal sipper, they offer Blanco, Reposado, Anejo and Extra Anejo Tequilas and four different Mezcals.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The perfect ending to a fabulous meal is a single-origin Oaxacan coffee. Bold, and flavorful, not bitter.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This contemporary restaurant has stunning decor with bar shelves that go up and down on a pulley system. Beautiful bottles in a honeycomb formation line one feature wall. Another feature wall has a wooden design interspersed with soft lighting that changes colors.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
