Puesto Los Olivos

“We had an amazing experience at Puesto Los Olivos! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, stylish, and welcoming - a perfect mix of modern and upscale Mexican vibes. The service was outstanding. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious. The tacos, especially with their fresh handmade blue corn tortillas, were full of flavor and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The margaritas were also excellent and perfectly crafted. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended if you’re looking for elevated Mexican cuisine in Irvine! 🌮🍹”

“Are the tacos expensive? Yes. Are they worth it? Absolutely. Some very creative and delicious gourmet tacos that really hit the spot. The appetizers go well with the tacos, and every taco was great. The interior is super nice with both indoor and outdoor seating. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.”

“The food is delicious but super expensive. Customer service is the best . We had dinner (8 people ) they automatically added an 18% tip. It’s ok because the tortillas were delicious 🤤 shrimp 🍤 bowl was amazing. This is a really good restaurant. The waiter was very friendly and he was checking if we needed anything.”

“I highly recommend coming with a reservation when they open on the weekend. The restaurant ambiance was perfect since there weren't many parties. The interior was green and enhanced the experience. The Hero Taco had good flavor with the exception of the lobster. I would probably just get a steak taco next time and hope to add on saucy onion strings. The Wagyu Brisket Taco was also a good one. It was very spicy but kept you coming back. The meat on the Wagyu Brisket was a bit tough to chew. The Pina Colada is a good drink to get. A good amount of sweet without overdoing it. The bathroom is clean and has multiple stalls. There are free postcards at the hostess stand. There was a 4% surcharge added to our final bill for our party of 4.”

“I really liked the concept here, but the menu feels a bit limited—I was surprised by the lack of popular Mexican staples. The pricing is also quite high for the quality of the entrees; $13 for a single beef taco felt steep, and the $19 lobster was unfortunately mediocre. That said, the guacamole flight was excellent, and both the cocktails and mocktails were top-notch. Great vibes for drinks, but the food value wasn't quite there for me. Service is always good here”
