Customer Reviews
Great restaurant! We absolutely loved it from start to finish. The menu is very extensive and offers an excellent variety of traditional Mexican dishes, so there’s something for everyone, whether you’re craving classic comfort food or want to try something new. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering how generous the portions are. We ordered the chicken soup, and it came in an enormous bowl that was easily enough to share between two people. It was only $11, which felt like an amazing value. The food was fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of authentic Mexican sazón—you can really tell it’s made with care and true respect for traditional flavors. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a great place to sit back and enjoy a proper meal. Our server, Miguel, was outstan
Puerto Nuevo Mexican Restaurant is a great spot with a fun atmosphere and excellent food. The salsa bar is awesome, with plenty of fresh and flavorful options to choose from. The drinks are huge and well made, and the food menu offers a wide variety of great options. Everything we tried was delicious and came out quickly. Overall, it’s a fantastic place for good Mexican food, strong drinks, and a lively dining experience. Highly recommended.
The food was amazing, and they gave us some queso bean dip right when we sat down complimentary. Our waiter looked like bad bunny, and they also had a little salsa dip bar that was different than most Mexican restaurants. Overall the place was high end, which is hard to tell from the outside but once you step in it’s very beautiful and eclectic inside. I got the taco salad which was more meat then lettuce but I’m not complaining and my partner got the burrito deluxe and I wish our stomach were bigger because we couldn’t finish the servings we got and on top of that realized we got a medium margarita and was huge and very sufficient! We went to this place because the original place we planned was closed and I’m glad because we were happier with this experience honestly. The vibes are 10/10,
I love the margaritas I have that day. love the food and the service. important fact is a good restaurant and it gets full remember to book before
Lovely ambience and interior decor with beautiful mountain views. Authentic food presented very well, excellent flavors and taste. Salsa bar was topnotch. Picture of corn ribs that was out of the world. Plenty of vegetarian options as well. Enjoyed our lunch.
