Apparently operated by a renowned chef, we tried El Alto with great anticipation. It was very disappointing. Service was slow, the food took ages to arrive, and when it did arrive it was underwhelming and mediocre at best. Beyond that, one of the entrees (and there aren’t many to choose from) - pork chops - were sold out. Then we waited ages for cocktails and the excuse was they made the wrong ones and had to remake them. Things did not seem to be organized or running smoothly at all. To top it all off, the prices are an affront to a reasonable person’s intelligence.

Great signature craft cocktails. Food was amazing... Table orderedt all different things to try everything we could and it was all amazing right through this dessert.

Nice selection of tequila and mezcal cocktails, and all the sharables we tried were terrific - especially the queso dippy thingy.

Sadly I am giving this a 2 star review. After hearing rave reports and anxiously waiting to try this new restaurant in Los Altos - it has left me feeling disappointed. I even took the time to get “dressed up” for a fun date night with my hubby. Our evening started off by waiting for over 35 min for our cocktail to arrive , actually only one of them arrived . The other one we were told was incorrectly made and arrived about 20 min later - after my husband had already finished his. We ordered 2 starters , again , each arrived 20 min after the first ! When we were ready to order our main dish - we were told they no longer had it on the menu . My fish dish was pleasant . The salad below average - melons were powdery and soggy ! Most of our night we were wither waiting for our waiter to check in on us , or waiting for our food or drinks to arrive. However the bill arrived as we asked for it . For a restaurant of this stature , the food and service was overall disappointing . Cannot say that I will be back - as much as I love to support local restaurants .
