About Altiro Founders
“Mexican slang for being on top of it / on it!”
Former professional soccer player of Mexican teams, Executive Chef Roberto Avila went from real estate guru in Mexico to restauranteur in Illinois with his wife, Erika Villanueva who is the interior designer and special events coordinator of Altiro's restaurants.
Roberto has been successful in every journey that he has embarked in. What is the key to his success? It is simple. Erika says, "The motto my husband lives by is Love and Passion."
This motto is reflected in the culture at Altiro's restaurants, from their interior decor, dish presentations, menu development to their source of their ingredients and warm customer service.
The secret ingredients that makes their menu delish are LOVE and PASSION!
Buen provecho!
Happiness, Served by the Hour!
