"There are tacos on just about every corner in San Diego, but Puesto stands out because of its costra. They add a thin, pan-crisped round of Oaxacan cheese to their tacos, which wraps around the fillings and gives a bit of gooey structure to each bite. Think of it like a blanket, swaddling crispy battered shrimp tossed in sticky sweet tamarind-chile sauce or mushrooms dressed up with stone fruit serrano salsa. This is a fun place for a night-out-on-the-town dinner, so kick the evening off with their classic margarita or a dark Mexican-style lager." - sabrina medora
