El Alteno Reviews
We always order our takeout from El Alteno! They have the best tacos in Yerington, and if for some reason they are closed, we don’t go somewhere else, we just wait until they are open again! Their prices are amazing, and all of their employees are super friendly and great representatives of their company!
Excellent food. We've been trying the specials, trying things we would not normally eat. We've loved every plate. I still have my fall back meals... of street tacos which I love.
Best in town and the closest to our house. 😀

El Alteno is a hidden gem in Yerington, offering some of the best Mexican cuisine around. The restaurant may not have the fanciest decor, but the food more than makes up for it. From the flavorful el pastor to the delectable shrimp soup, every dish is a delight. The service is friendly, and the prices are great. The place is clean, cozy, and comfortable, with nice booths and seating throughout. The salsa served with complimentary chips is delicious, especially if you like it on the somewhat spicy side. Customers can enjoy Mexican bottled Coke, horchata, and also beer, wine, and margaritas. The staff is super friendly and fast, making the dining experience enjoyable. Popular dishes include street tacos, wet carnitas burrito, enchilada, tostada, and flautas with chicken. The large menu offers a variety of tasty options, and portions are generous—sometimes even more than ordered. Overall, El Alteno is a must-visit for authentic Mexican flavors and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
