Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Finally made it into the Stuart Los Altos! Been to the Greenfield location several times. The food at the Stuart location was just as good - the menu is identical. The place doesn't have a lot of seating but we came late for Friday and got right in. We usually drive by at normal dinner hours and the place is packed. Had the Tacos de Carne Asada - very good!

First let me say, hurray for Stuart!! We have a Mexican restaurant, and not just a Mexican restaurant, but a really good Mexican restaurant!!! I really walked in not expecting much. Boy! Was I wrong. First, the place is clean, well lit and the ambience was happy and friendly. I had the Carnitas, which came with refried beans, rice and a small plate salad. The pork was to die for! Slow cooked, juicy and flavorful! My husband had the chicken Burrito Mexicano and 2 very large margaritas and he loved it! We also indulged and had the churro dessert! Super yummy!! They also have flan! Next time! The service was very nice! Our waiter, Luis, was polite and friendly and I was so happy to be able to speak Spanish to someone, I don't get to do that very often in Iowa! I highly recommend this place. It's definitely gonna be our go to place when I don't wanna cook and we want good Mexican food. No more long drives to Des Moines! Muchas gracias por traer su negocio a nuestro pueblito chico! Le deseo buena fortuna a este restaurante, y ojalá que se queden abierto por un largo tiempo!!

Fantastic food for a fair price and the staff is cool too. Not upscale... Not a dump... Middle of the road family restaurant. Clean bathrooms as well. Complimentary chips and salsa and a large selection of food.

This is a little culinary oasis in an Iowan prairie. Stopped here on a cross-country trek. The menu is expansive, VERY affordable, and the help helpful. Food was cooked perfectly and gluten-free options for my sister. I asked for a burrito to go for the morrow's ride and they obliged my request of half refried beans and half potatoes..and they threw in some chips and salsa gratis, which they didn't have to do. (Wine selection...for sis...was limited, but what Mexican restaurant has an expansive wine inventory to choose from?) I hope they succeed in such a small town.

Great! Yea for Yelp! Based on the Yelp recommendation, we stopped. Don't judge it by the exterior. On our lunch, we found everything quite wonderful. Our table included a tamale, a chimichanga, a fajita burrito and a burrito Los altos and the plates were quite clean upon our departure. We will be back!

Ugh....how is it that I have ordered a chimichanga from the Los Altos--specifying GROUND beef each time--and 5 times, out of 6, it arrives with shredded beef; however, when it came with GROUND beef once, it was only half and half. WTF?! Their nachos, which are delicious, are piled with ground beaf, after all.

We stopped here for dinner based on the Yelp reviews, as well as the hotel clerk's recommendation at the AmericInn. Everybody steered us to the right place, as the food here put the Mexican restaurant in Colorado to shame. So did the margaritas! We shared a double order of steak and chicken fajitas. Nothing too original, but cooked to perfection and the meat was not chewy or gristly. The free, warm chips and yummy salsa were a great starter. The churros dessert was WAY better here than in Colorado. The restaurant is not flashy, but very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we would recommend other travelers take a detour off of I-80 for this treat.

When you are driving on this area of the interstate looking for a place to eat--there isn't much around. We were all craving Mexican and I was glad to see the good reviews on Yelp. Yes, it doesn't look like much from the outside. Inside, it is clean and bigger than you would expect. The menu is huge and it was hard to make a decision. Chips and salsa were fine. We were starving though. They do have excellent guacamole, which appears to be homemade and is inexpensive for the serving size. My daughter got a ground beef enchilada, rice and beans. It looked (and tasted according to her) like your standard Mexican restaurant fare. She was satified. My son got the kids meal nachos which had ground beef and a white cheese dip on them. They were great. Loved the cheese dip flavor. Similar to something I've had in the past but haven't run across in Omaha. I got the beef fajitas. When the server (a young blonde woman) brought them out, she brought the sizzling meat, onions, peppers and tomatoes, and some wrapped tortillas. I asked for a plate to eat off of. When she brought it back, I asked if she would be bringing the sides. She said there are no sides. I told her yes, there is supposed to be a plate of cheese, sourcream, beans, etc. She said no. I asked her to go check. I then went and got a menu which confirmed that there should be a plate of sides. She acted very put off when I explained this to her. When she finally brought it, there was probably 1 tsp of shredded cheese, but 1/2 cup of sour cream. I did ask for a bit more cheese but was nearly done eating by the time I got it. Overall, the meal was good. We had been driving all day and were hungry and cranky. The service was fair and I was put off by the server's attitude. I think the place is pretty good but they need to train their servers.

Great food. We stopped there while on a long road trip and we're very happy we did. The food is authentic in that they do not smother everything in cheese. We ordered steak he does and the pork chili Verde Aunt both were excellent. Plus, the service was fast. A great find in the middle of Iowa.

We stopped at Los Altos in Stuart based on yelp reviews and we were not misled. The food was delicious and freshly made. Service was attentive. It was also quick which is important when driving cross country.
