• Mexican • La Jolla
Booked 72 times today
Mexico City born. California raised. Puesto brings the vibrant soul of CDMX through a Southern California lens-bold, modern Mexican with an edge. Seasonal menus, creative takes, and the best ingredients in the hands of better chefs. Every tortilla starts with organic blue corn, made in-house like it's been since 1200 BC. Puesto is family-founded by the Adler and Lombrozo brothers, first-gen Mexican Americans raised on tamales and tradition. It's a love letter to the flavors they grew up with, reimagined with Mexico City energy and SoCal spirit. Made by food people. For food people.

Inspired by an Italy road-trip Chef Ryan and I (Arturo) took back in 2008, we’re pleased to introduce Catania, the newest member of the Whisknladle Hospitality family. Here, we’ll be featuring simple, seasonal and authentic Italian Coastal Cuisine (None of the Italian version of TexMex you see most other places). Our commitment to authenticity will be evident in our use of wood burning ovens and grills, an all Italian wine list as well as an exclusively craft Italian Beer program. (Yes, Italy has an amazing craft beer movement nobody’s heard about.)

    Always a great experience when we visit. The food is fresh and cooked to order every time, and the Mai Tai drinks were on point. Also, shoutout to the guy at the front desk for helping my guy out with a hammock when he started choking lol. Overall, a great experience — definitely a spot we’ll be visiting again.

    A little pricey but the ingredients are exceptional! I usually expect excessive salt with restaurant dining…. But not this time. No hiding bad ingredients here. Lovely restaurant.
