" As a taco lover, I’m pretty picky about my food. I was excited to try El Alteño after hearing so much about its authenticity. I ordered the al pastor tacos and was not disappointed at all! They were juicy, flavorful, and came served with some fresh radishes on the side. The prices are fair considering how good the food is. Service was quick, and I appreciated how much effort they put into the presentation of each dish. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful experience! From the moment I walked in, I felt at home. The atmosphere is delightful, and the staff treats you like family. The sopes I ordered were rich in flavor, and the prices were quite reasonable. El Alteño is a place I’ll happily return to! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve become a regular here because the quality never disappoints. Every time I visit, I try something new on the menu and each dish has its own unique flavor! Definitely a hidden gem for those craving authentic Mexican food without the fluff. Their super affordable prices don't hurt either. Highly recommend their tacos and burritos! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was recommended El Alteño by a friend and it lived up to all the hype! My family and I tried a variety of dishes, and I must say, the tacos were the standout. Everything about them was delightful. Service was quick and accommodating, making the experience that much more enjoyable. Wonderful establishment over all! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely the best Mexican food I've ever had! I brought my family here for the first time, and they were blown away by the incredible flavors and the authenticity of the tacos. We tried the carne asada and the lengua tacos, both were cooked to perfection! The staff treated us like family, making our visit even better. We will definitely be returning soon, especially for Taco Tuesdays! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great family business with authentic food! Very smoky taste which I love, and the portions are very fair for the price. Tacos and burritos were amazing! Would recommend the sopes if you want something hearty. The staff was super friendly too. The only minor issue was there was quite a wait to get our food, but once it arrived, it was well worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've heard so much about El Alteño and finally decided to check it out. The food was undeniably tasty and had the authentic flair that I was searching for. I ordered the sopes and they were delightful! The only downside was that it was a bit crowded, and the service felt a tad slow, but the wait was worth it for such great food. I can't wait to go back and try more menu items! " (*Curated Review*)
