Loved everything here especially their cauliflower! Great seating options and usually never crowded on the weekdays it seems. The owner is also very down to earth and friendly. The servers are very nice and cater well to groups. Highly recommend their watermelon appetizer and cauliflower. They have a really good selection of alcohol and non alcoholic beverages. Will definitely return!

Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious — both dishes we picked randomly and those we chose based on others' reviews. The service was also excellent. A wonderful dining experience overall. Highly recommend!

I am so happy I found this place! This is how I want to eat every day! Service and Cadillac Margarita were wonderful. Mahi Mahi fish tacos with watermelon salad are to die for! After that, the hazelnut crunch square with delicious light berry sauce, strawberries, and whole toasted hazelnuts was heaven. I will definitely be back for more of this! Came back today and had another Cadillac Margarita with the King Ranch Enchiladas and Roasted Beet Salad. So freaking delicious!

We went to Posa Alta Cocina on a late Saturday afternoon. We were celebrating our anniversary. We were greeted and seated immediately. The restaurant was busy. There was a large table at the back of the restaurant and a table of 6 celebrating a birthday. There were also several tables for 2 that were dining as well but the very professional waiters handled the crowd with ease. We started with Cadillac Margaritas... delicious!! We also ordered Chicarones. Oh my, they were so good accompanied by an amazing cheese sauce with corn. We shared the beef fajitas, also very delicious. All in all it was an amazing afternoon of drinks and eats. We are looking forward to paella night on Monday! Can't wait!!!

Review for Posada Alta Cocina Posada Alta Cocina offers a wonderful fine dining experience with a beautiful ambiance, both indoors and outdoors, that’s perfect for a quiet family meal or a romantic evening for couples. We started with the guacamole shrimp appetizer, which was fresh and flavorful—a fantastic way to kick off the meal. The fish tacos and beef steak were well-prepared, rich in authentic flavors, and left a lasting impression. The only downside was the Posada special drink, which wasn’t strained well, affecting the texture. However, the staff quickly replaced it with an excellent Margarita, showcasing their commitment to customer satisfaction. Overall, a great spot for a refined Mexican dining experience!

Scheduled wine tasting in the area and searched the area for fine Mexican dining online — to not taste with an empty stomach. Read positive reviews at this restaurant and set a 12 pm lunch appointment for two. Was greeted courteously and seated promptly. The place was smartly decorated with warm Mexican embellishments with a wine room. Ordered the grilled shrimp guacamole appetizer and paired it with the burgundy Chardonnay. Very nice! The grilled shrimp was perfectly seasoned and grilled. The guacamole fresh and tasty. Ordered for my main, the amazing chicken enchilada paired with Albariño. Super delicious pairing. Will definitely come back again and taste the other dishes.

The food here tastes fresh and delicious. The staff are very friendly and happy to serve the customer. It’s a bit pricey, but it’s nice to treat yourself every once in awhile. I always order their house Sangrita and King Ranch Chicken Enchiladas.
