Description:
While employing a style of décor known in interior decorator circles as Contemporary Latino Pool Hall, La Alteña features fluorescently backlit photos of its entrees that work on a more practical level. But we’ll leave it up to you to determine whether these seemingly late-Nixon-era images cast the La Alteña line of fare in a positive or decrepit light. Conveniently located adjacent to several storied booze houses, so it’s a popular spot for famished inebriates. And if you’re in the market for some sturgeon or perhaps a bucket of sesos, simply exit via La Alteña’s back dining area and into indoor Mission Market.
