El Puerto Mexican Seafood - Carlsbad

Pretty Good food. The street tacos on Friday and Saturday nights are really good but do not order and sit down...wait for your tacos or they will take forever.

Plentiful Mexican bites abound, including carne asada fries, menudo, and drinks like micheladas and horchata. There?s a small parking lot, credit cards are accepted, and they have indoor dining (not outdoor options) as well as takeout available during covid. Came here on a Sunday around 1pm and there was no wait. Some people did come in and out for takeout orders, but as a whole, the place was pretty relaxed. There?s a bathroom but it?s only available to wash your hands. There?s also a large screen TV that was playing soccer in the background. Food-wise, the carne asada fries were a bit smaller than I expected, but still good for two people to split. They put a lot of sour cream on it as an FYI. I?d recommend putting the green salsa provided for more flavor/spice. The burritos come with rice and beans, and I did like the adobada meat (the red salsa goes well with this one). Keep in mind the red salsa is also the spicier salsa, for those who are a bit more sensitive to eat. For the menudo, you have the option for corn or flour tortillas, and it?s a good serving size for the soup.

Recently Ive been coming to eat here with no issues , but just today I received a fish burrito with spoiled rotten fish , it smelled and tasted awful. I had evidence to show the restaurant but refused to accept. It took me one hour and thirty minutes toget my money back. they couldn't accept that my food came contaminated so they fought to keep their money. The point is that myfood was contaminated , and therefore a restaurant should be able to give back a full refund no matter how much you ate from themeal or dinner.

This place used to be good. Now they just in a hurry. Raw egg

Had carne asada tostada. The carne left for something to be desired,?. like Meat! Tiny, thin gristle. No bueno. Not a soul in the restaurant so they could?ve afforded to offer sweet portions that will otherwise be thrown out and customer service was not so great. at all.
