There's both indoor and outdoor seating with a homey feel. Ended up taking our food to go. The waitress answered all of the questions we had about the menu and after ordering, the food was ready quickly. We got the fajita burrito and texana quesadilla. Both were tasty, came out hot and promptly, and were perfect when we got home to eat. The green and red salsas were tasty. The red which is the spicier of the 2 had a little heat but not too much. We will definitely be back.

They offer a wide variety of tacos (since I was in the mood for tacos I didn't pay much attention to other things), and I was especially excited to see nopal as an option--such a rare treat! The staff were incredibly friendly and patient as we browsed the long menu. I asked for a horchata with no ice and fully expected it to be about 2/3 full (the cup was huge), but to my surprise, they filled it to the top. And it was delicious! My partner ordered a torta that looked amazing... though I didn't get a photo because he devoured it too fast! Definitely recommend this spot and will come back.

DIOS MIO !!! Who…read moreknew I'd travel all the way from Los Angeles, CA to Hillsborough, NC to find my favorite Mexican Restaurant!?! Okay, I can't take credit for finding it - my sister, who really knows how to find the best spots anywhere and everywhere told us this is the one! Muchas gracias, mi hermana ‍‍ Well, let's be real, I do have other favorites for different reasons, but everything here is fresh, authentic, and on-point! I would make a trip to Hillsborough just to eat at Tacos Los Altos. They have a great menu, the place is super charming (both inside and on the patio in front), plus they have really good margaritas served in glasses that add to the party vibe. Mom and I really enjoyed our food, then my niece and nephew found us and they loved theirs as well. My nephew was the only one to finish his meal, however. The portions are huge, so be ready for leftovers. I had the chicken breast enchiladas suizas and was amazed at how flavorful and moist the white meat was. They don't skimp on the cheese, either! Our server was kind and attentive, and none of the staff seemed annoyed that we were there a little late in the afternoon when they probably could have been taking a little break. We parked near the Colonial Inn and walked along the super charming street to this gem of a restaurant. I want to go back there right now. Let's hope this family-owned and operated business thrives for generations.

Tiny interior, but feels cozy and makes you feel like you're in a little taqueria in Playa del Carmen or something. Highly recommend. These folks know what they're doing and are a major asset to the community.

We ordered the 1/2 order of fried banana peppers, dry rub wings, a bacon jam burger and tots. Oh! and beer! The star of the night was the banana peppers. Tangy and delicious, the small was huge! The wings were def done right and although I'm a blue cheese fan, the ranch was better. I'm knocking off one star for the burger. It was $16 (with tots) but it was tiny! It had one slice of red onion, a few shreds of lettuce, maybe a teaspoon of bacon jam and I'm not certain it had cheese at all. It tasted great, and the tots were perfect, but for that price I expected a burger that was bigger and more substantial than a $4 burger from Jimmy's. With all the other stuff (we shared) we were full but on its own, that burger would've been a disappointment. I'll go back for those banana peppers and wings, but I'll skip that little bitty burger.

Not very fried, but crispy. Eventually a whole 6 person family got sat in the window and were having a fun time.
