Alto Restaurants

Those who have never been to Alto, New Mexico, may be unaware of the sheer culinary joy of an entree smothered in green chile. The Alto area is home to many family-owned Mexican restaurants where hungry customers can find a variety of authentic and modern takes on regional Mexican classics like tortas, chiles relleno and burritos. If you like your food a little less spicy, Alto also has several classic American diners and even a chuck wagon eatery where you can find "Wild West" staples like beef stew, barbecue, and baked beans. Alto residents and tourists can beat the heat with an iced coffee or frappe from one of Alto's corner coffee shops.
