   We took our waiter's every recommendation and it did not disappoint! The sweet potato dish was fantastic, as was the cornbread, the fresh tuna with fennel salad and the stuffed mushroom was unique and delicious. My husband LOVED the fresh fish entree and our son said the chicken was fantastic they "should stop now because it doesn't get better than THIS!" Literally every morsel of food was fantastic.

   The best meal I’ve had in a while. Exceptional service and just an overall great dining experience. The striped bass and the elote cornbread are a must try!

   We had a great dinner at Alteño with friends and were excited to try it after loving Alma Fonda Fina—both led by Chef Johnny Curiel. The service was fantastic—our server walked us through the menu and made great recommendations. Cocktails were excellent (the Avocado Margarita and Carajillo were standouts), and we shared a variety of dishes that felt well worth the price. Highlights included the Pan de Elote Jalapeño Cornbread, Camote Asado, Gringa al Pastor, and Chile Relleno with Huitlacoche. Every dish felt intentional, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Highly recommend for anyone looking for elevated, creative, authentic Mexican cuisine in Denver!

   Alteno is one of those rare places where every detail feels intentional—from the moment you walk in, you’re wrapped in warmth, flavor, and an atmosphere that’s effortlessly cool without trying too hard. The menu is inventive but deeply rooted, full of bold, layered flavors that showcase serious culinary skill without ever being pretentious. We had the tacos and the pollo a la brasa, and both were absolutely unforgettable. The tacos were bursting with flavor, perfectly balanced, and the pollo a la brasa had this smoky, tender richness that made it the star of the night. The tuna green apple aguachile was a bright, electric opener—refreshing and plated like a work of art. And don’t skip the jalapeño cornbread with huitlacoche truffle butter—it’s savory, earthy, and downright addictive. I paired everything with a whiskey sour that was sharp, smooth, and clearly made with care—simple done right. Service was top-notch—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. It’s clear the team takes pride in what they’re creating, and it shows. Whether you’re local or just passing through, Alteno is a must. Come hungry and leave already planning your next visit.

   I loved how right when we sat down our waiter walked us through the entire menu and gave wonderful suggestions on what to try. Each dish had so much fun, unique and incredible flavor.

   Everything was fantastic. Service was kind, professional and helpful. Very loud atmosphere, go early if that's not your thing but the food and service were good enough that it wouldn't stop us from going back.

    The new incarnation of the magical kingdom of chef Curiel is a great addition to the cherry creek dining scene. Food is complex and delicious. We did not like the push to “order everything at once” and this doesn’t fit a menu as diverse as Alteno. Also frustrating that so many dishes including vegetarian offerings use their “black spice “ which has fish ingredients. With a seafood allergy this severely limits the number of menu possibilities. Still the dishes we had were phenomenal.
