I love this place. Clean restaurant. The food is good. Everything I've had has been delicious. The staff is friendly. It's good all around.

Order a burrito and at first glance it looked small and skinny. I feel like they could have stuffed it a bit more. But it was delicious. Could use more cilantro and onion. The asada meat was high quality. They give you chips and salsa and its a very small portion size. I saw someone order coctel de Cameron, I'll try that next time. read more

$6 dollar for 3 tacos thursday!!!! Can't go wrong with that. The tacos were okay, wished they warmed the tortilla a bit more. The al pastor were okay, definitely need to drown them in salsa for my taste liking, They have my favorite drink Agua Fresca de Melon!!! 10/10 for melon. read more

We get our work lunches here periodically when we are craving some Mexican food. So far I have tried the tacos and my coworkers get burritos and quesadilla. All have been good so far, no complaints. We usually order to go or get our food door dash so I do not know much about dining in. read more

AVOID THE BREAKFAST BURRITO! Came in got the breakfast burrito. To my surprise it came with an extra crunch of egg shells. It wasn't just a little it was pretty noticeable. Will never go here again. Only reason why I came in was because I needed to use the bathroom. read more

Just happen to be in the area decided to stop by was looking for a four star and was just going to leave to go to a different four star and I'm glad I didn't. This Taqueria deserves to be in mid four star range. My only complaint was the size of the burrito if it could've been 30% bigger I would definitely drive out here to get a burrito. Which doesn't make sense because I live in San Ramon and I probably could just pay for extras in the burrito and make it that much larger for what I would have to pay in gas lol. Price point for the burrito was also comparable to 80% of Taquerias in the area. Every ingredient in the burrito was perfect. It came out piping hot as well. The carne asada was seasoned to perfection and also had a great char to it. The rice was moist. The beans were flavorful the guac, sour cream and cheese were all good as well. Perfect five star on service I was greeted by smiles from every staff member. The ambience of the restaurant was that of a nice Taqueria with busy orange walls and menus that are on LCD screens for easy reading. The staff is bilingual and I ordered no salsa on my burrito and got no salsa so no issues with the order either. I also got my burrito in just about four minutes and they had maybe six or seven people sitting at tables. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. read more

Food was delicious. It's a fairly typical taqueria setup with a far ranging menu (much more than you'd expect and more like a high end Mexican restaurant. The prices are between those two extremes. I think the counter attendant who took my order was having a bad night. She was distracted and I had to repeat and clarify my order several times. After I finished ordering, she was pacing and looking around outside the restaurant like she was nervously expecting something. It made me a little uncomfortable to be honest. read more

This place deserves more recognition! After noticing the price increase and smaller portions at another local Mexican spot, I decided to give this place another try--and I'm so glad I did. The carne asada fries were delicious and well-portioned, making it a great value for the price. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I have been back here a few time since my last review. This time I got the same Caldo de Albóndigas (Mexican Meatball Soup), still as good as the the last time. They a have a Taco Thursday Special every Thursday, 3 Tacos for $5. There are 4 meats you choose from, Chorizo, Gilled Chicken, Carnitas (Pork) and Al Pastor. I got 3 Chorizo tacos and they were good, not oily and they give a good amount, take a look at the photo. I say thats the BEST deal anywhere. read more

I went here for their Thursday Taco Special ( 3 tacos for $6) during lunch hour. This special is only for chicken, al pastor, carnitas, and chorizo. I tried the chicken, al pastor, and carnitas. All were delicious with sufficient salsa. I can see how if you take them to go, they might get soggy by the time your home. During lunch hour, there was about five people ahead of me. And the dining area was full with no seats. Despite that I got my tacos within 10'mins of ordering. Overall i do recommend this special is you like the meat selection included in this special read more

Casual Mexican joint in a small plaza off Dixon Landing Road Staff is friendly and accommodating. Chips and red Salsa 3.5/5 needs some lemon tang Orange Salsa 7/10 has some spicy kick and nice coloring but needs a little more flavor Pozole - 4/5 pozole broth is good - heavy with pork and chicken. Tried to get them to add tripe but they didn't understand and instead gave a sautéed mix of tripe and intestines. read more

3.5 stars. Their super burrito is delicious but I took away half a star because it doesn't come with chips, salsa, or any sauces. Usually that stuff is complimentary at a Mexican restaurant. Here you have to pay for sauce or salsa to go with your burrito. I wouldn't mind ordering from here to go. I probably wouldn't eat in again. They don't wipe off the tables fast enough in between customers and many of the tables have food remnants. Simple and casual ambience. Lady taking orders is friendly and efficient. read more

I've been coming here for several years and decided to get the shrimp cocktail. This was a mistake. The taste and size were good. But they did not devein any of the shrimp. It was nasty. Definitely not worth the $18. Hopefully they fix this since everything else about the place is good. read more

ooooooo come here!!!! so good. the flavoring is just right and oh my gosh if you love spicy make sure to get their salsa. it's spicy but so flavorful and so yummy, i could put it on anything. service was quick too. i would say the only thing is the smell outside of the restaraunt because well it is milpitas lol but other than that! wow! would definetly come here again and try other meats and other items on their menu read more

I got 2 of Lengua and 1 Asada... what can I say about these tacos.. I picked them up and they ripped apart.. they used white tortillas that were soggy.. the meat was very regular with not much flavor... if you want to go on "taco Thursday" they only have meat flavors like chicken, pastor and some other meats no one orders.. no salsa in my bag, no limes, no radish, and no napkins... the ladies look good and that's probably the only reason they have a crown of all men but the service is below average.. I won't be going back to this place.... read more

I think they need to review their own menu. My husband and wanted burritos for our movie date, he gets a regular burrito with not much detail however, I love a super burrito with everything! This place put what they wanted on it, I didn't have sour cream, guacamole and barely any meat bug lots of rice and I said light beans but it was plenty beans I guess to camouflage the meat. So of course had to eat it while at our movie and I was hungry. Plus spending $16 for it. Was almost done and no sour cream or guacamole in site! Just very disappointed, we live close but will not support them again. read more

The albóndigas had a great flavor, like everything I added salt but the flavor was there. I also ordered two carne asada tacos, the salsa was good and the flavor of the taco overall was 7/10. I appreciated the meal but the service could have been more welcoming and the food just wasn't worth the 20 minute wait. read more

Not good food,I got a pastor burrito but I think they just gave me soggy skin nasty!!!!!

3 for $5 tacos every Thursday!!! You can't beat that. Meat options are limited to: pastor, chorizo, carnitas, chicken. Workers don't speak much English so it's a little hard to communicate. They do offer free chips and salsa (no refill) but my only gripe is that they are really stingy with the chips - it's maybe 10 chips they give. Also the salsa they give might as well be ketchup/tomato sauce - it's not really salsa. Pro tip is to ask for their "spicy sauce" which is actual real hot salsa. read more

3 stars now, the quality of the food has been going down and they are charging for chips and salsa. That's never a good sign.

I ordered a super burrito with steak. PROS: * Price seemed fair-ish for the size * I ordered on Yelp, my food was ready within 10 mins * Free chips & salsa... they asked if I wanted more at pick-up * They were NOT greedy with the sour cream or guacamole CONS: * In my opinion, my burrito was a bit salty & the salsa tasted weird read more

I ordered the carne asada super burito. The burito was delicious! The only thing that I'm disappointed with is that they charge for the salsa! 50 cents each! And no free chips! read more

De Los Altos Grill - Carne asada super burrito - Mexican Near Me - Milpitas, California

Big portions and great flavor. We do take out and the order is always correct and ready at the given time.

Review is for the couple things we grabbed for breakfast, still exploring local-ish for a kickass breakfast burrito and saw De Los Altos had something similar to what we were looking for. We also like how they are open early, we rise early for the kids and can't wait till 9 or 10 to get Breakfast at some of the closer places. We door-dashed our order and it came well packaged, everything was still warm despite how cold it was in the morning. Everything was also very well labelled so we knew exactly what was in every package without having to open it. The good: I liked the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito and would get it again, I got a little of everything in every bite and it tasted great on a cold day. Everything worked well together, noting the weter scrambled eggs and chorizo were a good combo. We did not like the packaged salsa that came with the Breakfast Burritos at all, you can see it in the picture with the Ham Breakfast Burrito. It was really watery and tasted heavily like Tomatoes, it reminded us of the salsa's that don't need refrigeration that are sold near the chips at grocery stores. Weird thing is the Asada Fries came with yummy Pico De Gallo. The Ham breakfast burrito did not work so well with the weter scrambled eggs and there was too much ham inside to the point where it was overpowering. Asada fries were made w/ fries about the size as McDonald Fries. Carne Asada was OK as well as the toppings. Did not like the fries, they tasted a little chalky and some were pretty dry. read more

It's my first review in awhile and also my first new restaurant since the quarantine started. We have been eating at home or places that we are familiar with. Time to try something new! This place was actually really good. Good portions and good quality. I had the shrimp burrito and honestly it was fantastic. Everything we tried was really good. This is the time to support the smaller businesses as best as you can and we did our part today. This place rocked and hopefully I'll try it when things get a bit more normal. read more

2/17/25 - came here and ordered Nachos paid by cash to go. There's a sign about paying cash and get 4% discount, the lady working the counter told me it was for card use. I would have argued but I really wanted my food. Has anyone paid cash and received a 4% discount? The food is always on point but the workers need to be educated. I hope the owner responds to this post read more

Been there twice, both times had a great meal. Personal favorites are the meatball soup, quesabirria, carnitas burrito, and steak quesadilla. read more

The first time I ate here, I ordered a super burrito, and I gave it a 4 out of 10. I didn't like it very much. So i decided to give it another try with grilled chicken fries, and it was a waste of money. The fries were not cooked all the way and soggy. Anytime you put toppings on fries, they should be cooked crispy so they won't become soggy. Never again will I spend another dime there. read more

Their chicken quesadillas and chicken tacos are really yum. The tacos they come with rice and beans which are tasty too. They are pretty quick in preparing the orders. The chips and salsa are extra though. read more

Check this place out today as I was in the plaza for the laundromat... Order a super burrito and a medium mexican drink. Total was $15-16 The burrito was huge. It was ok... Plenty of beans and rice and some carne asada... But mostly beans and rice.... The free chips was free... And the thing that sort of surprise me was that after using up 3 small cups of salsa they started to charge $0.25 for each additional salsa ... This is the probably the first time ever I had to pay for salsa... Even though it was a quarter... Well, that's certainly a negative. Think I will just go to las vegas as usual if I ever want mexican.. better fresh chips and unlimited salsa... Actually unlimited chips and salsa and even get free refills.. I didn't bother to try and ask for refill. Figure since they charge for salsa I didn't want to bother... read more

This review is for the tacos only. I've been craving tacos for awhile and have been disappointed with the other taquerias in town. I was pleasantly surprised how tasty my al pastor tacos were when I came for lunch recently. The best part is that I recently discovered they have a Taco Thursdays (3 for $5) special. Can't wait to come back for more tacos. read more

Horrible horrible horrible. Food was completely tasteless. Chips were almost stale, beans and rice were very plain tasting. Pupusas were a joke and also tasteless. We literally took two bites of each thing and left our plates full on the tables. We were very disappointed and saddened that $80.00 of our money went to the trash. We are a latin family who knows good Mexican food when we taste it. This place will highly leave you disappointed. Needless to say, we will NEVER come back. read more

Nickel and dime you for everything. No complimentary chips and salsa. 4% extra for paying with anything other than cash. Girl at the register was not very friendly and had vacant expressions. Food was good though. Though my burrito had already exploded when it was wrapped in foil so that made eating it difficult. Had to knife and fork it halfway down. This place is a basic hole in the wall joint...just order at the counter and they bring you the food. You bus your own table. Super burrito was almost $16. read more

A solid Taqueria that's only a short drive from my house. The menu is vast, portion sizes are large and the food is delicious. What more can you ask for? I went last week and was pleasantly surprised to see customer dining-in, as the county moved into the next tier. They had 3 or 4 tables available for dine-in and they were all taken. It's nice to see these local restaurants getting back to some normalcy, as we continue to deal with this pandemic. I enjoyed my Al Pastor burrito. The meat was flavored well and as usual, they aren't shy with the size of the burrito. Per usual, my burrito was delish. My wife ordered the chicken Super Nachos and added chicken. This is a meal in itself! Of course, I helped polish them off, since my wife can't eat that much food. The service here is always quick and the staff are friendly. Parking is plentiful as well. read more

Round 6 of the bfast burrito challenge is in the books! Good sized burrito filled with nicely spiced chorizo, eggs, potatoes, and salsa. The potatoes could use a bit more seasoning, though. Two salsas and chips accompanied my To Go order. Definitely use the yellowish sauce/salsa on the burrito as it has a nice kick and good flavor. The pico version should be used on the chips as the chips could have used more salt on them. As previously said, it was a good sized burrito for around $12; I ate half at bfast and the rest for lunch. It is now close to 4pm and I am still kinda full! read more

Great food great service large menu awsome breakfast burritos opens early, nice employees

Bright, colorful, friendly Mexican food place. We ordered the: Chorizo taco - good flavor, not too oily Carnitas taco - crispy and flavorful meat without being overcooked. Asada Fries - lots of fresh pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole, cheese and shoestring-type fries Tip: Comes with a free small bag of chips and salsa Taco Thursday!! 2 for $3 tacos or 4 for $5 In a small plaza easy to get to off of the 880 freeway. Easy to find at night with their led-lined windows. We will be back to try their Taco Thursday! read more

I hate leaving bad reviews, but come on!This is by far the worse Caldo de Albóndigas I have ever had in my entire life. It doesn't have any flavor, they basically boiled some water threw in some veggies and meatballs. It is not edible.... I tried, I really did, it cost me $17.** of my hard earned money. I have eaten here before and their tacos are ok and the burritos are good. Maybe they should stick to that. Just my humble opinion. read more

I've had De Los Altos Grill bookmarked for a long time. There aren't too many good taqueria's in Milpitas so my expectations of this place was pretty low. Boy was I wrong though, S/O and I like this place! It's spacious and clean. The staff are super nice and the food is pretty damn good! As Dan C. wrote: "Taco Thursday's. Four tacos $5.... Nuff said! Taco Thursday's. Four tacos $5.... Nuff said! Taco Thursday's. Four tacos $5.... Nuff said! Taco Thursday's. Four tacos $5.... Nuff said!" So yes, we came on Thursday and 4 tacos for $5 bucks is a steal. My S/O ordered a burrito and that itself was pretty cheap for what you get as well! I should also mention that they have a nice selection of salsa's at their salsa bar. I love that they do this. I'm a salsa queen and love my Mexican food with a nice kick to it. Will be back soon! read more
