    Carna Asada
    Pras L.

    Service is VERY attentive. Did I mention very?? Though, good menu, a nice amount of choices for authentic and regular favs. Everything comes out hot, with large portions. Great for families and groups since it's casual and colorful.

    Our party of 4 were greeted immediately by the smiling host before being escorted to our table. The restaurant is sparkling clean and beautifully decorated. The waitperson came to take our drink order, put it in, before serving the margaritas quickly. They were perfectly tasty. She took our dinner order and was appropriately attentive throughout our meal. My carne asada tacos were generous, tender, and packed with flavor. My spouse got fish tacos (tilapia). They were lightly battered and perfectly fried. They were not drowning in sauce but instead it was served on the side -- exactly as he likes. The other 2 got steak tacos. Again, absolutely perfect. We all had beans, rice, and nicely chopped salad sides. The pico was fresh and so good. Personally, I was thankful my food wasn't drowning in sour cream. It was a wonderful experience and we highly recommend. I'll go again!

    Wide varied menu!

    I usually am not in this area but met some friends at a center point who were staying out at meremac state park. First visit and it was pleasant. All of the popular dishes, service was good and very friendly. I had the tamale lunch special as tamales are an item many Tex Mex restaurants don't have. They were passable (too much massa coating IMO). The guys has chicken enchiladas and fajitas which they liked. The ambiance was clean, if the theme and looked relatively new. If I was in the area again, I'd probably return.

    Chicken fajitas and veggies

    I started with a margarita. I had a choice between small, medium or large. I went with a small regular margarita with salt. It was a little heavy on the sour mix. I tried their chicken fajitas. When the fajitas arrived I noticed the chicken was sliced incredibly thin. I strongly dislike when restaurants do this. The chicken is so thin I had to put on my reading glasses to find all the chicken. The chicken tasted good and it was tender. The bell peppers and tomatoes were overcooked and limp. Everything arrived hot. Sat at the bar and received great service. The ambiance seemed more like a sports bar than a Mexican restaurant. Small parking lot and had to park in the larger strip mall lot.

    What smaller town needs three Mexican restaurants? Eureka! Altos Cantina is a nice addition to our options. We chose to eat here on a Friday after work a week after they opened -- so that explains some of the busyness. We arrived at 5:20pm and were seated right away at one of the last open tables. (By the time we left, there was a decent sized line waiting outside.) Chips and salsa were brought to the table right away, and our server arrived shortly after. (Salsa had some kick to it!) We ordered margaritas and dinner. The margaritas were just ok to us. (Be aware of drink prices. The menu only shows prices for the house margaritas. We had sticker shock when we got the bill because we had upgraded.) The food was really good. My husband ordered the chimichangas, and I had the Fajitas Alambre. The fajitas were SO good--a nice mixture of meats and veggies topped with cheese dip. The jalapeños add quite a bit of spice. I'd come back just for the fajitas. Service was great, the restaurant turned out nicely (a former Applebee's building), decor is understated but pleasant with agave farming artwork, and there's plenty of parking. Can't wait to try more of the menu! Welcome to Eureka!

    This is genuinely the nastiest and I mean NASTIEST Salsa and Guacamole I have ever eaten. Is there 13 year olds back there cooking??? Why are we scared of seasoning??? Why are we scared of spice??? It's Mexican?? I don't even understand how this restaurant is open and running. And I watched my waitress shove her hand in her mouth before grabbing our drinks.. I would have rather starved than spend my money here. If you are traveling and thinking to stop by, take my word... KEEP ON MOVING!

    Great atmosphere, very clean. Comfortable bar tables and chairs.

Super friendly and very knowledgeable! True to Napoli's style, Service was top notch! Pretzel Bread service to kick things off, served with Spicy Mustard and Spicy Queso, both delicious. I'd have to say the queso was my favorite, but... we'll yeah it's cheese! Hayden let me taste the Sauvignon Blanc on happy hour and while it wasn't unenjoyble, I went with the non-happy hour Reisling for the win, which was delicious! Coastal Hour Crispy Rock Shrimp as an appetizer, which is about 1/2 the dinner size and perfect as a starter or even as a meal with a soup or salad. Really nice breading on the shrimp, not too thick. Good flavor on the sauce, not spicy. For the entree, Louisiana style Halibut with Crawfish and Cajun Sauce, Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus. The plate comes out piping hot, please don't touch. I even had to cool off each bite of food. Well balanced flavors, cooked perfectly. No room for dessert, so I settled on the Smores Martini which was an amazing dessert choice. You get all the flavors of a Smores treat in a libation. Truly enjoyed this Thursday eve!

I had been a few times in the past but it was my family's first time. I don't drink alcohol and they have a great mocktail section! I got the NOPE-rol Spritz, it was delicious! My family and I split the white truffle fries and ciabatta as appetizers and they all got pasta dishes that they loved. I got a pizza (the Arugula) and unfortunately I feel as though I ordered wrong (which was my own fault), I didn't really care for it. When you took a bite it was like all the toppings fell off on the first bite. I think they cut the pizza before putting the toppings on which just made it harder to eat. I think the best part of the night was the service. We had Grace as our waitress (she was training another girl, but unfortunately I don't remember her name). They did a fabulous job - Grace did a wonderful job training her! It felt like we were at one of the more elevated Napoli's like Napoli III. They were so attentive and gave us great suggestions. Get that woman a raise! Well done, ladies!

The food will be very familiar from the perspective that everything we had was excellent. We started with calamari, and to our surprise there were also a small group of onion straws on the plate. It was served with 2 sauces (one marinara and one aioli - both were excellent). Don't skip the fried lemons, they are an added treat. We then moved on to the Napoli salad, it is as described on the menu...crisp, and appropriately dressed. Then we had the special pizza of the evening, it was a black garlic base (not strong) with mushrooms and burrata on top - delicious. We also happen to be sitting next to the area with the pizza oven - a must see if you are there. We did sit inside, but outdoor seating was available. What might not be so familiar, but I thought was great, was a more casual atmosphere, and decor, I would classify is as upscale casual. Our server was very pleasant, the only thing that surprised me was the time in between courses seemed a bit longer than expected, but that gave my friends and I a chance to catch up. Overall, a very enjoyable experience and I will be back!!

Our…read morefirst cocktails were okay, the skinny marg was average and the New Fashion was a slow sipper, not as smooth as their traditional old fashioned. The classic marg and watermelon mint marg were both much better choices. The fajita filet was amazing, melted like butter in your mouth and the bone marrow was a great bonus. The wagyu flank came out overcooked the first time and was a bit tough. We sent it back and the second one was much better. The fries with it were average, better once soaked in the steak juice. Service was very polite and they comped one of our cocktails for the overcooked flank steak. But they only refilled our water glasses once and disappeared after that. The restaurant is very nice with multiple seating options, in the dining room, high tops, at the bar, and they have a great closed in patio that have garage style doors that can open in nice weather. The outdoor green space looked really nice as well. It is in the pricey side, which aligns with their Twisted restaurants. But the steak quality was at least great.

They moved to this location and friends had been and said how much they enjoyed it so we decided to give it a try. It was good - not our favorite Mexican restaurant by any means. I'd probably give it 3.5 stars if Yelp would let us do half stars! It was crowded and loud. We got one of the last available tables. We had to wait a bit for a server, but once she came over, she did a great job. We ordered cocktails and queso to start. I usually like a prickly margaritas but I didn't enjoy this one. It was way too sweet and something else that I couldn't put my finger on. My husband ordered the spicy house margarita and said it was okay. It's made from a mix and that's not his preference. He asked for salt on the rim and they put tajin on instead. Our server caught after she brought it over, but he just kept that one instead of sending it back. The queso was good. It had a little kick. I would have liked it to be a little thicker because it was dripping everywhere. The salsa is pretty good as well - it also had a little spice to it. We both liked our entrees. I got the pork and pineapple tacos. The pork had great flavor, but was slightly dry and there should have been more pineapple. By the time we left there were a lot of people waiting for tables! We'd probably go back!
