    The Jamaica Drink. The real stuff with real flower used to make. Not too sweet. Not the powder. Excellent.
    Li J.

    Literally everything is super fresh and clean. I was awestruck at first. They even look to cut their own potatoes for the fries if you get an item with fries like I did. Review of the items I got: -Asada Fries: was hoping to get something similar to what I'm used to in SoCal. I got mine with Carnitas and no pics de gallo. Generally in SoCal we don't put pico de gallo on ours. Although this did not taste like the SoCal kind(that classic so heavy and rich heart attack flavor), it was still awesome. It had all the otherwise same ingredients, slightly less cheese but a more good quality type of cheese, but still was missing the heart attack flavor. The flavor was still with the same depth, just not heavy/greasy sensation on the stomach and taste buds. I think its because as I noted everything is literally made same day and even the fries they do fresh. The carnitas were also very juicy and overall the portion for everything was very large. I will get this again def. -birria taco: i like that they dont overcharge on these and again the fresh aspect is really good. -flan: better than most I've had. Very smooth and just right amount of sweetness. -Jamaica: Im very excited to say they do make the real Jamaica with the flowers themselves. They do not use the powder a lot of places do. It tasted perfect and not overly sweet so yeah I loved it. One mistake I made was I got so starstruck by the freshness and care of the ingredients that I didnt grab any salsas to try. Next time I'll do such so I can see if they have a super spicy one to my liking. Last note: the service was excellent. Everyone polite and helpful.

    Second time here. This time by choice. We had the chicken tamale plate. Very very delicious!

    This is my go to Taqueria when I'm in the North end of Mountain View, Ca. You have multiple food options. My favorite is #2 Burrito. You can choose what meats you want with all the added ingredients. Flavors is very good as well as their many other Mexican dishes. Lots to choose from. You can tell it's top notch by how many Latinos patronize this place. Service is very good but friendliness is not exceptional. I don't mind this at all and really I look forward to the food more. This leads to the next subject, ambiance. There is indoor dining but don't expect a restaurant style experience. More like a sandwich shop table and chairs experience. Still, not bad. If you're wanting to impress that special someone, this might be something to go to on a third date.

    Today, I'm in Silicon Valley. I've seen this more than a few times on late Nights. And today is the day, I check-it-out. I'm here at Los Altos Taqueria in Mountain View this Friday evening. I went with the Chile Relleno again, and I had a Large Cup of Fresh Juice, Agua fresca, but this time Tamarindo. This is one of the better Chile Relleno I've had so far. The Batter is delicate, but holds up well, it soaked up all that flavorful, and savory Sauce, the Sauce is more of the consistency that I'm used to. The rice, is Bright. Everything is fresh. And it wasn't greasy at all. I was thinking this was going to be a 3.7/3.8 to 4.3 stars, but I give this 4.2/4.3 stars out of 5 stars. This taste authentic, and like a Fiesta.

    Enchiladas plate

    Been here a few times now and it's always solid. Many options on the menu. This time I had the enchiladas plate which came with 3 enchiladas and you could choose what kind of meet you wanted.

    Burrito Regular

    This place is fire. The menu was a bit large, they have tacos, burritos, sea food, but I actually presos chorizo burrito. This place must have a good butcher because the chorizo was flavorful, it didn't cheapen out with too much rice, well balanced burrito. The place is decorated with pictures of San Jose de gracia jalisco , Telemundo or Univisión on a tv and friendly staff, de f yall looking for a place to eat in Mountain View this Mexican Independence Day (9/16 no it isn't May 5) this is your spot !!!!!

    Super Nachos
    Allan K.

    I always get nacho cheese fries whenever I can at a taqueria. This one definitely did not disappoint. Super heavy in weight but surprisingly tasted really healthy! Got chorizo as meat but it wasn't greasy at all which was probably better for my health. Would definitely come back after a full day of labor work.

They were not to crowded tonight but it was the day after the Labor Day weekend. Once seated, they brought us chips and salsa (green good flavor not too spicy and a red sauce that had some kick according to my wife- I didn't think it was too hot).I had a 2 item combo and went with 2 Tamales (one beef and the other chicken) served with rice and beans. Both tamales had good flavor and I enjoyed the Rice & Beans that came with my dish. My wife had the California Burrito with Steak. She liked her burrito. Nice size serving.

Chevy's could never! LOL. The shrimp ceviche was fresh; however, we wished it had more of the citrusy juice and was a bit dry. The cubed mangoes were a nice fresh addition to the ceviche. SERVICE: 10/10 The nicest staff to stumble upon. We were helped by 3 different people, and each of them was so kind and attentive. AMBIANCE: 10/10 Their ambiance is everything, whether it is inside or outside. Outside, there is a lot of nice seating to enjoy the weather. I can only imagine how it looks at night with the twinkle lights on. Inside was so beautiful and eye-catching. There was color everywhere, and I truly loved their rainbow-pattern theme, papel-picados and mariposas displayed all throughout the restaurant. The mixed colors and patterns of chairs per table were beautiful. Their bar area looked so cute and fun to be at. They definitely had so many different types of tequila brands displayed, which makes sense, but I thought it was nice. Parking was fine, thankfully, but it was very small. I wonder how it would be at night or when it gets packed. Overall, this is a great place to stop by!

The place is spotless like usual, very friendly and attentive staff. I like all the decorations that they have up. Makes you feel like you are in Mexico somewhere. We arrived early and the outside and main dining area were jammed packed. I took pictures of the back room where the rest rooms are so you can see the great art work. By 7pm, it was complelty full. Had the Mole Enchilladas and it was very good. By the time you have the tortilla chips and chile and whatever you are drinking, you get filled up.

    Very solid taqueria featuring some of the best pupusas in the area…read more Today I had a pupusa revuelta (cheese, chicharrón, and beans) and another with carne asada and cheese. Both are hand-made to order with fresh masa and come out so hot you're gonna want to let them sit for a minute before digging in, if you can restrain yourself. The revuelta pupusa has a soft and flavorful filling that comes together kind of like cheesy frijoles charros. It's kind of the classic pupusa filling and I think for good reason. The smooth and well-mixed filling ensure every bite has masa, each element of the filling, and ideally a healthy pile of curtido and salsa. The asada pupusa is a little bit more of a novelty, but the asada itself is solid and I like the variety of having different feelings to work with. If this is your first time here, I recommend going with the asada. My only critique of these pupusas, which is a critique of pupusas I have in general, is that they could use a little more filling, particularly around the edges where the bites can be kind of masa heavy. Pro tips: they just got kiosks for ordering and you won't see a pupusa with asada on there as an option, but you can do so if you order at the register. By default, pupusas come with a traditional thin tomato sauce that isn't spicy, but I always ask them for the salsa they bring out when you get chips instead. It's chunkier, spicier, and slightly more acidic and I think it pairs better with the pupusas. I ask for this and plenty of curtido when I order takeout from here.

There were a lot of complaints about service but no complaints about food so we decided to try it out. Ordered 4 chicharron pupusas and one carnitas taco. Just ordered the taco because I am a deep deep lover of carnitas and I wanted to try it. Under $25. The place was packed with all Latinos ... first good sign. Lots of the complaints were about timely-ness, and I say to those people, relax. Everybody was working super hard and fast, and it is just really busy at lunch. It takes a little time to get your food, but it was absolutely worth it. these might be the best pupusas I've ever had. They brought out three salsas for us, and I was partial to the green. The pupusas were chock full of cheese and chicharron to the rims. Fried perfectly. The carnitas taco was amazing! The pork was so crispy and delicious. As to the service, ours was great. The tables were all full, but a couple of guys said we could sit at their table because they had two empty seats. Thank you! A young person with bleached hair wearing a baseball cap (sorry I should've asked your name) was really attentive. He cleaned our table and brought us ice water. I can't wait to go back! I will be getting more pupusas, and my mom wants all carnitas tacos all day.

I chose to eat at the Palo Alto location because it is closer to my final destination. I tied up my "FrankenBike" on the sidewalk beside this fine eatery and sat in a 2-seater table where I could see the pole/pennants from my machine--just in case...! The waitstaff were very accommodating to me, though they have NO responsibilities for my parking there. Fortunately, there was no foot traffic and only three peds passed by during my 2-hour stay, possibly exhibiting some interest in my much modified CruzBike.com + the added ebikekit.com 48V direct drive eSystem. Anyway, I ordered the weekly (Sunday) special, the Fajitas supremas (steak/chicken/shrimp) something a carnivore like me cannot resist. ¡I certainly was not disappointed!
