User Rating: 4 out of 5 starsSome of the best authentic Mexican food I have tasted in St. Louis. Excellent tacos de chicharron. Excellent caldo de meatballs. Very good horchata. Clean bathrooms and very friendly atmosphere. Margaritas sucked however, as they were watered down big time. If not for the margaritas, I'd give them 5 stars.

I was surprised, and very pleased by the great service from the wait staff. Good food is best served with good humor. We had some great laughs accompanied by excellent, really excellent food.
We'll be back -- Again and Again. -

Hello,
I work for the St. Louis Post dispatch. Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience at Pueblo Nuevo, during my visit. In fact, it was a very short visit. A colleague and I (a Latina) decided to try out this restaurant on our day off.
We walked in, I made eye contact with the girl in the kitchen that waved her hand for us to sit anywhere and we walked to a table where a waiter was cleaning off in the front, next to a 2-person table. We looked at the 2-person table but it looked too small, so we waited for the waiter to finish cleaning the 4-person table and proceed to sit.
The waiter then asked us to sit at a 2-person table and I told him "it was too small," then he proceeded to address me and telling us "well, it gets crowded in here on Friday's" looking at the door, where no one was waiting. We looked at him and I told my colleague, "Letâs go." Then we left the restaurant with a "bad taste" in our mouths.
If we were given the choice to sit down by another person, someone else shouldn't have told us to sit at another table in front of a crowd of people in the restaurant.
So with that being said, we will publish an article about this experience at this restaurant on âHow a Latina was discriminated at a Mexican restaurant.â How ironic!
Needless to say we will NEVER return there again!Comments (3)

What does it matter that you work for the St. Louis Post Dispatch? Does that have any bearing on this story? NO!! Yes, most of the time you can sit whereever you want, and that is what the person in the kitchen was telling you. But then the servers who know how crowded it can get recommended that you sit at the 2 person table instead of the 4; big deal. My husband and I have sat at the 2 person tables MANY times; no big deal!!!!!! We LOVE Pueblo Nuevo and have been going there for almost 20 years. The food is awesome and very reasonable. My kids even love it now too. My daughter was upset cause we could not go there today on her birthday. And just like "Mr. Sauce" my husband orders the sampler platter almost every time we are there. Keep up the good work; and do you think you could open on Sundays, Please!!!!

Oh, and also "Latina-Girl" you were not being discriminated against because you were asked to sit at a 2 person table. You are nuts!! Go ahead and write your article, we all know the truth of how good Pueblo Nuevo is. The reason you left with a "bad taste" in your mouth is because you did not even eat the food; so YOUR BAD!

Latina-Girl, I would hope you would know that the plural of the word Friday does not need an apostrophe if you were actually capable of writing for the Post-Dispatch. And please stay away from Pueblo Nuevo--my favorite restaurant anywhere--if you are the sort of clientele who would unnecessarily occupy a four-person table. I'm glad you didn't try the food, as it would have forced you to return.

Went back a second time and the food was consistantly good again. Chiliquiles in salsa verde were very good. Black bean soup was delicious. Tacos de Chicharron were great. Tacos al Pastor were pretty good. Margaritas were again watered down. Service was fast and friendly and the restaurant and restrooms were clean. I'll give them 4.5 stars, but with the watered down margaritas, they'll not get the whole 5th star in my book. If they served maragaritas like those as Los Tarascos, I'd give them 5 stars.
