If you've been waiting on a sit-down spot at Liberty Station, El Punto is nearly here. sandiegomagazine says it opens Monday, Nov. 9. SanDiegoVille notes the date isn't officially confirmed, and the restaurant's website still advertises a fall 2026 debut.
It's from restaurateur Gerry Torres, who opened the original City Tacos in North Park in 2014, and chef Eduardo Baeza. Expect ceviches, tiraditos and oysters, plus the most popular City Tacos tacos.
El Punto fills about 8,800 square feet at Liberty Station
