Los Altos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina — Restaurant in Billerica

This is tough, and I didn't necessarily want to rate them this low, but they didn't really give me many reasons to come back. To start with the food. The entrees were good. I got the carnitas and was surprised at how good they were, even without a sauce. I was disappointed that they charge extra for Verde, but they certainly stood on their own. My wife got enchiladas and said they were very good. As for drinks....my wife and I got margaritas at first. I don't want to say they were bad, but they were absolutely some in a style that wasn't expected. My wife, usually a big margarita fan, didn't want hers. I ended up having two and she got a churro martini, which she also said was underwhelming. Lastly, dessert. I have a rule. I see tres leches, I get it. I was disappointed again. It tasted like they just bought in a sheet cake and made it work. My wife got fried ice cream and again...it was fine. I got the feeling, prior to opening, that they were going for something a little different...but it ended up being very standard fare. It's fine, I might go back, but at best it's the third best option in the area for sit down Mexican. Oh, atmosphere....well if you're nostalgic for Rick's, it's nice. It's nice, bright, and clean in there....but once again...felt like their goal was to just do enough to make it work. My experience overall.... completely neutral...fine...not bad, not...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Must-Visit Mexican Gem!

I had an incredible experience at this Mexican restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The environment is lively and friendly, perfect for a night out with friends or a casual dinner with family.

The food was absolutely delicious. Authentic flavors, beautifully presented, and made with care. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor & fresh ingredients. The drinks were just as impressive; creative, well-balanced, and expertly made. Their margaritas are a must-try!

What really made the evening stand out was the service. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. Alejandra; the manager made us feel right at home and ensured everything was perfect throughout our visit. Jesse; our server was super attentive and always had a smile on.

Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing Mexican cuisine, great drinks, and a warm, friendly vibe. Can’t wait...

Very busy, but to be expected for a restaurant that just opened. Atmosphere is good, loud (people enjoying themselves) no music though. The environment is very clean. Tables clean. Food is pretty average, I got the Birria tacos. Minimal flavor, the consume that came with it was cold, again minimal flavor. The rice and beans on the side were dry. For the price of the food you’d expect it to be a little bit better, average Mexican food. I will say the queso was good!! Unfortunately the wait time between drinks, and food was exceptionally long. They’re very busy, likely not enough staff to keep up with the demand of customers. We were here about 2 hours- just placed our regular entrees and got the queso with chips, 2 margaritas! I didn’t like that they wouldn’t remove the chip basket that was empty and our empty drinks as well- it just took up space and made for a cluttered table. They’re alright, nothing special. I would come back again for...
