El Tapatio

About

Mexican • Lunch, Dinner, Drinks • $$

Authentic Jalisco-style Mexican food from a family-operated restaurant that's been around since 2002, with two Flagstaff locations so there's usually one nearby — East Side on Historic Route 66 and West Side on Humphreys Street. Known for combo plates, birria tacos, and tortas ahogada — a no-fuss Mexican kitchen for lunch or dinner, with drinks on the table. Both spots have a kids menu, high chairs, restrooms, and parking, plus wheelchair and stroller access. Hours run 10am to 10pm most days, until 11pm Friday and Saturday, in the $$ range, with moderate noise. There's no outdoor seating, so you're dining inside, and the room isn't quiet. Two addresses means double-checking which one you meant before you buckle anyone in.
