We hosted our barbershop holiday party at El Comal Restaurant in Los Altos, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was top-notch.
David and Jaime, the owners, along with their entire staff, went above and beyond to make sure our group was taken care of. Everything was well-organized, welcoming, and seamless, which made the night even more enjoyable for our whole team.
We truly appreciated the hospitality and attention to detail. Highly recommend El Comal for group events, celebrations, or just an amazing meal.

El Comal Restaurant offers the best customer service along with outstanding food quality that truly can’t be compared to anywhere else. The environment is great—welcoming, clean, and comfortable—and the people are incredibly kind and attentive. From the moment you walk in, you feel valued as a customer.

This restaurant delivers the perfect balance between traditional Mexican home style cooking and a high end dining experience. Every dish was outstanding the beef and chicken fajitas were tender and flavorful, the pozole was rich and comforting, the quesabirrias were crispy, cheesy perfection, and the tacos gobernador (shrimp, cheese, peppers goodness 🤤) were absolutely next level.
One detail I’d highlight is that chips and salsa are not automatically served yet they’re still available if you want them. This intentional choice keeps the experience rooted in authentic Mexican dining, where the focus is on the main dishes, while also elevating the vibe by moving away from the typical “default appetizer” most local Mexican restaurants rely on. It feels thoughtful, refined, and culturally accurate.
The ambiance is just as impressive. Classic copper Comales and custom Aztec copper pipe engravings crafted by the owners/contractors themselves, give the space character, warmth, and a powerful connection to heritage. What made it even better was the family atmosphere and incredible hospitality from both the owners and staff. This meal genuinely felt like being transported back to my hometown in Mexico with the added bonus of a polished, classy dining experience.
An absolute gem that Los Altos desperately needs, Authentic, elevated, unforgettable. Highly recommend.

We ate here last week and loved it so much we went back last night. We have tried many of the dishes they offer and all of them have been authentic and delicious. My husband can’t stop talking about how delicious the mole sauce is. The owner and his mother who created the mole sauce stopped by our table for a quick introduction. Lovely people. I would highly recommend giving this noce little restaurant a try.

I just had the driest sad carnitas tacos without flavor.

Come here. Probably the best Mexican food I’ve had in the US. Definitely get the pozole and the beef stew. Extremely fair value too!
thrilled to have a higher end, healthy and delicious Mexican restaurant in downtown Los Altos. We had the ceviche, guacamole, and burrito bowls, which were all extends. Some of us had shrimp and some of us had chicken and they were all very flavorful. It was so good. We came back the next day.

El Comal delivers outstanding Mexican fare with exceptional service from David and his crew. They welcomed us warmly, checked in attentively, and made every moment feel personal and efficient. The carnitas stole the show—tender, slow-cooked pork with crispy edges, bursting with savory citrus flavors, served with fresh tortillas and zesty salsa. Paired with hearty sides, it was unforgettable. End with the coconut flan: silky, coconut-infused custard topped with caramel and toasted flakes—light, indulgent perfection. A vibrant spot with great value. Five stars—highly recommend!

Great atmosphere, good food. The place looks excellent and clean. Service was quick, and the whole experience was first-rate. If you're ordering tacos, get the Taco Gobernador, I order it every time. I'm definitely coming back.
