"In perhaps the most picturesque setting in all of Mexican wine country, chef Javier Plascencia offers a grand campestre experience. Diners feast on local oysters, suckling pig and lamb roasted in cajas chinas, and seafood tostadas you can dress with an array of colorful salsas served in small jars. The bread and tortillas are made by artisans on the premises, and the produce comes plucked from the garden. Seating areas on top of massive old wine barrels, acquired from the Santo Tomás winery, act as amusement parks where visitors share Mexican wine, laughter, and selfies until the cows come home." - Bill Esparza

"One of the area’s best-loved chefs is Javier Plascencia, who set up in the valley in 2012 when it first turned heads. His Finca Altozano now encompasses the original outdoor grill restaurant, a tortas truck, an ice-cream shop, and the pop-up dinner series Animalón under a 100-year-old oak tree."

Wonderful service and wonderful food! It was well worth the visit. I've wanted to eat here for years and was able to finally dine here for a late lunch. We came here with our awesome tour company, Baja Wine & Dine, so the dishes were all selected in advance. Every dish was delicious. So many good vegetarian options too but my favorite was the moist tender chicken with roasted potatoes and the crispy skin stuckling pig. I've read a few reviewers complain about the dogs roaming around. The dogs do not bother or beg from the diners. They walked around the tables and never went under them. There were about 4-5 when we were there and they were all respectfully friendly. I was surprised at first to see dogs there but soon got used to them. The diners are discouraged to feed them.

Can’t say enough about this place. On arrival there are fire pits and the decor is cozy and amazing. The lamps are made of sticks and woven materials to look like nests. The service was impeccable, our waiter spoke great English and helped make suggestions. We loved the Brussel sprouts, seared tuna, sourdough bread and kale salad. The mushroom risotto was a great main. Wonderful and rich. By the time dessert came around we ordered one of each. The cornbread was surprisingly amazing and the churros were my favorite.

This is one of my most visited places in the Valle de Guadalupe. Consistently good. Last visit during January, they had plastic up and propane heaters. Comfortable, and as always, excellent.

The food is great - don’t miss the suckling pig and other roasted meats - and view is lovely. Service was not as attentive as it could have been, though servers were lovely. Note that kitchen and bar close early (8p) on weekdays so reserve early so you have plenty of time before last call. They have relatively large local wine list, local beers including fave Agua Mala and G&T was especially refreshing cocktail.

Came for dinner with another couple and shared some Aquachiles, and a few drinks. These were pretty good, but the ribeye steak was fantastic. Very rich, but the chimichurri cut it well and complemented it perfectly. Others in the group had the beef rib and squid ink pasta which were also good. Fantastic service and atmosphere for a great dinner.

Great spot for lunch overlooking to Guadeloupe Valley. Pretty upscale. Lots of wine tours seem to swing by here

Someone else mentioned this, but I also needed to point it out. There are a ton of dogs roaming in the restaurant while you are eating, the waiters and servers are also petting them in between serving food! This is not an appropriate setting and I don’t know how the owners of the establishment permit this. (I am from Mexico and even restaurants in the hood do not allow dogs to annoy patrons) But aside from that, the food to price value was not there for this region. You are paying top dollar for mediocre taste. However, the drinks are definitely some of the best I’ve had in a while! I’d definitely recommend the specialty cocktails they serve. Also enjoy the view from the oversized wine barrel that has stairs leading to the top of it.
