" I recently visited La Altena and was very pleased with the experience. The ambiance is comforting, and the decor, while simple, really adds to the laid-back vibe. The shrimp fajitas I ordered were delightful, though the portion was slightly smaller than what I had hoped for. Service was prompt; however, I noticed some staff appeared rushed during peak hours. Overall, I would still recommend this place to anyone looking for respectable Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently took my family to La Altena, and we had a splendid time. The variety of options greatly appealed to kids and adults alike. I particularly enjoyed the taco platter that was loaded with different meats. The atmosphere gave a nice family friendly vibe, though a bit busy. Overall, a positive experience that we will repeat soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a lovely experience at La Altena! The margaritas were a highlight, and the fajitas had a great flavor, but my chicken was slightly overcooked. Nonetheless, the staff was attentive and helpful in addressing any concerns. The ambiance could be improved with better decor choices, but it was still inviting. We'll be visiting again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to dine at La Altena during a friend's birthday celebration. The food was fantastic, especially the fajitas, which were bursting with flavor. However, the restaurant felt overcrowded at times, making it less enjoyable. The service was good, but some delays occurred when it got busy. All in all, a great experience with delicious food. " (*Curated Review*)

" During our visit, the experience went relatively well. The food was flavorful—especially the pollo asado—and the service was attentive. I appreciated the fresh ingredients used, but we had to wait longer than I would have liked at the end for the check. Pleasant atmosphere with a few lively conversations around us. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Altena is high on my list of favorite Mexican restaurants. I have gone there multiple times and it's always a consistently good experience. The fish tacos are my go-to—they’re always flavorful, and the portions are generous. Perhaps the only downside is the wait time during busier hours, but I believe that speaks to how popular they are. Great food and atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about La Altena! This restaurant is a hidden gem with its amazing authentic Mexican dishes. The carne asada was cooked to perfection, with every bite delivering a burst of flavor. The portion sizes are adequate, and the service was quick even during a busy lunch hour. While the decor isn't extraordinary, the food more than makes up for it! I highly recommend this spot. " (*Curated Review*)
