Finca Altozano: Reviews & Ratings
This is one of my most visited places in the Valle de Guadalupe. Consistently good. Last visit during January, they had plastic up and propane heaters. Comfortable, and as always, excellent.
Wonderful service and wonderful food! It was well worth the visit. I've wanted to eat here for years and was able to finally dine here for a late lunch. We came here with our awesome tour company, Baja Wine & Dine, so the dishes were all selected in advance. Every dish was delicious. So many good vegetarian options too but my favorite was the moist tender chicken with roasted potatoes and the crispy skin stuckling pig. I've read a few reviewers complain about the dogs roaming around. The dogs do not bother or beg from the diners. They walked around the tables and never went under them. There were about 4-5 when we were there and they were all respectfully friendly. I was surprised at first to see dogs there but soon got used to them. The diners are discouraged to feed them.
This was a kind of exotic outdoorsy spot. They have some interesting dishes like quail, lamb (cooked two ways), beef ribs. My husband got a beef rib and it was loaded with meat that fell of the bone. Super savory! I got the lamb cooked Japanese style. It was super tender and had a great taste, but I tasted a friend’s lamb that was cooked on the grill. That was awesome! The scenery and the rustic setting made it exceptional! The service was excellent! We will definitely be returning!
Go for the food and you won’t be disappointed, but once you take a look at the place you will fall in love. This restaurant is a complete package, food, service and the location make the great experience.... You will go back for more. This place is pet friendly and it’s so close to nature that you will see little wild creatures around the restauran. Restauran has plenty of shade to protect you from the sun. If you go you will have the last word. Hope you get tempted by the pics.
Great food, excellent customer service, awesome ambience. Expect to pay a bit more.
Great little hidden gem in the heart of the Valle de Guadalupe! The service was impeccable, the ambience perfect, and the food nothing short of amazing. 100/10 recommend.
Can’t say enough about this place. On arrival there are fire pits and the decor is cozy and amazing. The lamps are made of sticks and woven materials to look like nests. The service was impeccable, our waiter spoke great English and helped make suggestions. We loved the Brussel sprouts, seared tuna, sourdough bread and kale salad. The mushroom risotto was a great main. Wonderful and rich. By the time dessert came around we ordered one of each. The cornbread was surprisingly amazing and the churros were my favorite.
Absolutely amazing. I could go on and on about what I ate, but I do recommend everything on the menu.
