Puerto Nuevo Mexican & Seafood Restaurant

"Was in the middle of the afternoon I went in to look at their menu decided I'd try a beef enchilada with red sauce. I was disappointed. Sauce was like a brown bean gravy. Service was also bland. Maybe things are better in the summer when there's more traffic."

"Coming from a place that prides themselves for the Mexican food I have tried the very best. And I must say I was very impressed with the food here. I ordered the vegetarian nachos, chips, cheese dip, salsa, a side of warm tortillas and a sweet tea. I didn't receive my sweet tea or tortillas but I called and they offered to give it to me tomorrow when I come back into town. They were very sweet. The restaurant was clean and vibrant. They also had outside seating as well. I will definitely return."

"This place is always great. The food tastes fresh and there are multiple locations in East TN. We have been to the one in Roan Mt and the one in Newland (I think that's where it is). The queso is yummy and the chips are always crispy like chips should be. The loaded queso is not my favorite since the pieces of meat are huge and not bite sized so they break your chip when you try to scoop with a chip. The guacamole is good. My kids always eat the queso, chips and tortillas and love it. I usually get shrimp fajitas or something like that but sometimes I just get queso and eat that and chips for my meal. All the servers we have had are prompt and nice. We like to eat outside when we can/when the weather is good. The Roan Mt location has a big deck out front where our party of 10+ can sit. We always stop by at least once when we are in Roan Mountain camping at the State Park. We highly recommend it!"

"I just love this place! It's a few minutes outside of Roan Mtn. State Park, so every time I visit the park (a handful of times a year) I make a point of having dinner here once or twice during my stay. I can highly recommend the El Barco (my personal fave), Chile Colorado, Burrito Jalisco, Pollo Poblano & Pollo Loco! Not only do they give you a very nice bean dip with your tortilla chips, they have a salsa bar, where you can try several variety of salsa's, the White & Tomatillo salsa's are fantastic, with just a little "kick". The atmosphere is very friendly and the staff are attentive! There's a lovely deck you can enjoy your meal on as well."

"I enjoyed the food very much the portion size was good! Place is clean & the staff are nice. Prices are affordable. I was surprised to get bean dip I guess for the chips, but it wasn’t actually bad I liked it. I prefer salsa more so though!"
