Good quality Mexican food (that can be hard to find). Authentic food and friendly owner. The restaurant was nicely decorated and clean. I highly recommend. read more

This small business has the best ambiance in terms of decoration, setting, and color. The service was standard diner quality with quick food delivery and generous chips and salsa. The food is home made and done with care. I felt like my grandma had made this read more

Los Altos Mexican Restaurant - Entrance - Mexican Near Me - Stuart, Iowa

Friendly, fast, tasty. Driving across Iowa? This little gem is worth a stop. Tasty food in a fun restaurant.

Excellent food, quick service. Large portions for the prices. Happened to be there on a Wednesday night so we hopped across the street to the town farmers market which was a great way to end dinner. read more

Food was great. Service was friendly. A Bluetooth speaker somewhere in the kitchen had an open connection. I connected to it, and played like 45 seconds of a really dirty song before someone turned it off. Hilarious! Great restaurant all around. read more

Let me just start with the FOOD here is AMAZING! And we had the server named Rafael who was very helpful & friendly. He brought out our food & drinks super fast and WOW... my fiancé had the Fajitas De Los Altos with a bottle of coke. And I had the Burrito Bandera with Horchata. The picture is just my fiancé's food ONLY && you could image what mine came out to look like. DEFINITELY would recommend this place as it's small but definitely WORTH IT! read more

Food is very delicious! Tastes like homemade! Service excellent and welcoming! Beautiful restaurant, especially the large back room. Hand painted pictures of 2017 Mexican movie "Coco" with the little boy who wanted to play music. Has Mexican hand paintings of the mariachi band. Beautiful hand paintings of some of the business buildings down Stuart. I love this place! I always stop here when I travel East to visit relatives in Iowa and Illinois. read more

Just yum!! I've eaten at a lot of Mexican restaurants and this one is the best!! Warm tortilla chips and salsa. Great service! We both got the carnitas platter. It didn't disappoint. They don't give you a knife because the meat is so tender you don't need one! The meat had an incredible flavor and the beans and rice were delicious. The piña colada was the best I've ever had. Yum! It was so good, I got one to go and enjoy in our hotel room. For prices you use the QR code on the menu. They are extremely reasonable. read more

Got the fajitas and thought they were kind of bland. I like good Mexican food, but this was a little below average.

Are you kidding me?!? Unbelievably spectacular Mexican food in Stuart, Iowa. Who knew?!? Well, I know now. The pork chili verde was a bit on the spicy side, but I was happy to perspire through every single delicious bite. read more

Unexpectedly found on our road trip from Cedar Falls to Omaha. I got 2 tacos carnitas. Mom got 1 enchilada. With 2 waters. Carnitas was DELICIOUS! Meat was so tender and juicy not to fatty! Mom liked her enchiladas. Good chips and salasa. Our bill was a whopping $8. I left a $20. Well worth it!!! read more

We stopped here on our way to Colorado. It was Sunday and , besides the fast food places, it was the one of the 2 places open. While initially it didn't feel like we had a choice, since there weren't too many places open, it was the RIGHT CHOICE. The food was great! My fiancé loved the salsa, he usually doesn't care for it when we go to mexican restaurants. We had the carnitas and the pollo ranchero. We were surprised to see we had no forks, but you don't really need them, the meat comes apart easily. The server was attentive. I've noticed the restaurant has reviews from 9 years ago but it looks like maybe it's been recently renovated. I loved the murals! I'll definitely keep it in mind for next time we're doing the trip! read more

Cute family owned restaurant in the middle of a tiny town. I got the veggie fajitas and was amazed at variety and quality of the veggies. You can tell they cut everything fresh. My son got the kids chicken burrito with rice and beans and it was a generous portion. Husband got steak fajitas and it looked great. Other son got a beef burrito and said it was his favorite burrito ever. Overall, a solid choice for food really close to I-80. read more

Food and service was great. We all meet there for dinner and always goes well. Ppl r super friendly

Delicious food with amazing service. I recommend the Al pastor. Seasoned perfectly!

Everything delicious...! I order burrito and my fajitas everything is so delicious. We will come again here. Nice job! read more

Horrible service. No knives , even after requesting one. Server didn't refill empty glasses or ask how things were. The retreated to a booth as their phones were more important. The food was good but no prices on the menus . Music was too loud. Not all food was delivered with the meal. read more

This Mexican restaurant is a favorite for many locals! The flavored margaritas are our favorites when we eat here. The inside of the building may appear small, but can seat a lot of people. The staff works super hard and is very polite. On our last visit, it was a Friday night before a home football game, and the crowd all arrived at once. The staff was cool under pressure, and moved people very quickly, while also being respectful of those who waited. There is a lot of nice variety on the menu. We enjoy the enchilada souzas, but you are sure to find something that everyone will love. read more

Good Mexican food & drinks served here. I recommend the Carne asada. They have several combination platters to offer

Great food. I would eat here again when ever I pass back through. Worth the stop. There was an honest mix up when we placed our order and our food was delayed. When we asked about our food they corrected the error. It was fresh and delicious. They apologized and made it right. Can't ask for more than that. Even with that said, I would eat here again read more

Right off the highway and an authentic Mexican restaurant. Enchiladas jalisco and chicken taco salad were very fresh and tasty. If you are up for a refreshing mouthful...a must try read more

We stopped for a quick dinner while traveling east on I-80. Surprisingly good Mexican food in a small town in Iowa! I had the arroz con pollo which was delicious. I recommend this place if you're driving through Iowa. read more

Got street tacos, they were amazing. Came with a bean a sausage soup, which was also really good. Salsa was perfect and to our taste.

food was fine, the rude treatment we received was miles below par. the host and hostess at the Panora location treated our table of four terribly, from being seated through paying our bill we were treated this way. read more

Great find on a long haul drive. Get take out and eat in the nearby baseball dugout :)

Long, long, time ago this used to be the Cyclone in Stuart. For the few that have the pleasure of those happy days you wont be disappointed on your first visit to Los Altos. The inside is shockingly well done and they had an artist paint Stuart murals on the wall. The staff is very friendly and the place picks up and gets really busy about lunch time on a Sat. Are party of four was sat quickly and we were helped right away. I got the chimichanga and asked for the beans on the side cause I am not a huge fan of beans. The beef was nice big beefy chunks and not ground beef. The guacamole and sour cream on the side was delicious with the overall meal. Everyone ordered something a little different from the next. We all really enjoyed our meals. We even had a little fun and got a cheese cake desert. Nom! If you have picky eaters they carry a great selection of American food..like hamburgers and fries and such. Also daily drink specials. If I was in town I think this would be a regular spot. There was even outside seating which we should have taken cause it was so beautiful out. If you live in Stuart and haven't tried, they are worth the try. With limited options in town this little stop really has raised the bar and is doing a great job. read more

First let me say, hurray for Stuart!! We have a Mexican restaurant, and not just a Mexican restaurant, but a really good Mexican restaurant!!! I really walked in not expecting much. Boy! Was I wrong. First, the place is clean, well lit and the ambience was happy and friendly. I had the Carnitas, which came with refried beans, rice and a small plate salad. The pork was to die for! Slow cooked, juicy and flavorful! My husband had the chicken Burrito Mexicano and 2 very large margaritas and he loved it! We also indulged and had the churro dessert! Super yummy!! They also have flan! Next time! The service was very nice! Our waiter, Luis, was polite and friendly and I was so happy to be able to speak Spanish to someone, I don't get to do that very often in Iowa! I highly recommend this place. It's definitely gonna be our go to place when I don't wanna cook and we want good Mexican food. No more long drives to Des Moines! Muchas gracias por traer su negocio a nuestro pueblito chico! Le deseo buena fortuna a este restaurante, y ojalá que se queden abierto por un largo tiempo!! read more

We stopped here for dinner based on the Yelp reviews, as well as the hotel clerk's recommendation at the AmericInn. Everybody steered us to the right place, as the food here put the Mexican restaurant in Colorado to shame. So did the margaritas! We shared a double order of steak and chicken fajitas. Nothing too original, but cooked to perfection and the meat was not chewy or gristly. The free, warm chips and yummy salsa were a great starter. The churros dessert was WAY better here than in Colorado. The restaurant is not flashy, but very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we would recommend other travelers take a detour off of I-80 for this treat. read more

Fantastic food for a fair price and the staff is cool too. Not upscale... Not a dump... Middle of the road family restaurant. Clean bathrooms as well. Complimentary chips and salsa and a large selection of food. read more

3rd time stopping while on a road trip. Go to stop. Great food. We both enjoyed the meal

Passing through on a cross country road trip and stopped for lunch. Definitely worth the few blocks off I 80. Great food, quick service and very reasonable prices! We had the lunch menu chicken burrito and steak fajita burrito. Very good chips and salsa, not too hot. read more

This was a great surprise stop. Fabulous food, great salsa, and a great peach margarita.

Hands down good food, good prices and good customer service. My waiter was attentive and food was delicious. Keep up the good work Los Altos

Very good/fast service, plus delicious food! Will definitely be stopping by again when I'm in the area. Who would have thought just a small little place could be so good, right off I-80? read more

Fast service, good salsa and chips, huge burrito with beans and rice for only $6.50 at lunch!
