We were in town for our first visit to Flagstaff after driving up from Sedona and husband and I were so hungry! So turned to Yelp for nearby suggestions and found MartAnne's. The place was super busy and consistently busy which is a good sign. We went for brunch. The dishes were creative and carried an authentic flair. The spinach cheese enchiladas were delish! Husband had the ham omelette which he said was really good! The plates are large! Service is quick! Great for small groups, families and for couples.
One of my favorites in Flagstaff. My go to is Pablo's last meal. Service is a bit of a wait but they're always busy.
Came highly rated. Food was excellent, but service was mediocre, not friendly whatsoever. Wait was 30 minutes so we hung out at the plant store next door. Once seated we had the House Horchata, Elote Dip, salsa and chips, Enchilada Y Huervo, and El Verde Y Huervo.
The food here wasn't bad but wasn't my favorite. The green chile pork enchiladas were great, not spicy at all. The chips and salsa were delicious! The beans had either tomato paste or caldo de tomate, something in there, not my favorite. The iced horchata latte was unfortunately not drinkable for me, as it was SO sweet, and at around $10 (if I remember correctly), I was bummed but I didn't ask for something else in place of it because our waitress said we couldn't order anything else because they were closing in 30 minutes (we had already been there for 30 minutes).
After a long day of driving to and from the Grand Canyon and exploring out in the sun, one of our friends found MartAnne's nearby as we arrived in Flagstaff. Thank goodness for his decision to come here because it was the food highlight of our whole trip! We were greeted right away at the counter and escorted to a table for our group of 4. On a Friday night, the restaurant was definitely busy, but we lucked out with finding parking in the lot and also getting a table. After a short wait to look through the menus (breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all served all day), we decided on chilaquiles (Christmas), pozole and a tamale, a pork chimichanga, and the LGBLT sandwich with fries - quite an assortment! The interior decor is a feast for the eyes while waiting for the food. The red walls and decorated with paintings and art throughout, which we enjoyed talking about as we were seated. The food arrived quickly though, and our focus immediately shifted to how delicious everything was! Everything tasted incredibly fresh and homemade in the best ways. The portions were generous and if you know me, you'd know that value makes things taste better lol. Service was excellent, the food was divine, and even the horchata and tres leches that we were enticed to order exceeded expectations. What a gem of a place. Highly recommend.
Very warm and cozy mom-and-pop restaurant in downtown Flagstaff. The servers were kind and welcoming. The food was delicious, and portions were very generous. One thing to note is that everything on the front menu comes with hash browns, beans, and rice, so you will definitely leave feeling full no matter what you order. It is a bit on the pricey side, but that may just be typical Flagstaff pricing since things do tend to run a little higher here. Their drinks were also a bit expensive, so I stuck with water this time. My boyfriend ordered the iced white chocolate coffee, which was really tasty, though definitely on the sweeter side. I ordered their posole with two over-medium eggs on top. I've never had posole served that way before, but now I might not want it any other way, it was so flavorful and comforting! I would definitely recommend stopping by whether you're a local in Flagstaff or just passing through.
After eating next door for a lunch, we saw the signs all over MartAnne's claiming they are "The House That Chilaquiles Built!" We were intrigued enough that we visited MartAnne's the very next night for dinner. That was on a Tuesday at around 6PM and it wasn't too busy the entire time we were there. House Horchata ($5.99) - This drink comes in a giant 32 oz Ball jar with tons of ice. Per the server it's made with milk and condensed milk, no rice milk at all. It's rich, thick, creamy, sweet, filled with earthy notes of vanilla and cinnamon. There's so much spice included that at some points, there's almost a gritty feeling while drinking. It's perfect for a hot day after hiking. Buckwheat Pancake ala carte ($4.99) - Buckwheat pancakes are something we've never seen before on a diner menu in the past. It seems to be pretty common around Arizona, so we had to give it a try before leaving Flagstaff. This one's pretty big, almost plate sized. It's really moist, fluffy, bouncy, and light with a slight sweetness and a certain earthy flavor. It's moist enough that it sticks to the ceramic plate it's served on. The pancake is somewhat crumbly due to the low gluten content of buckwheat, although I believe they use a mix of buckwheat and wheat flour to give some more stability. It's bluish grey in color with black specks of ground buckwheat throughout. It's dusted with powdered sugar, but it's not a ton, making the pancake not really sweet at all. The pancake comes with a small cup of their cinnamon honey butter. It's not mixed that well, leaving it mostly unhomogenized with streaks of honey and spice through the softened salted butter. Tamale ala carte ($4.99) - MartAnne's offers two types of tamales - the first a red chile beef, and the second a green corn and cheese. We went with the latter, which is a homemade tamale with a somewhat looser, coarsely ground masa shell surrounding an interior of yellow sweet corn kernels, a bouncy and somewhat spongy block of Oaxaca cheese, and a fragrant green chile. There's a slight sweetness throughout and the tamale overall is easy to eat. Chilaquiles, Xmas, Fratelli ($17.99) - This is a monster sized plate of a mishmash of ingredients. There are three things as essentially a base layer. Firstly some Mexican rice that's tender, moist, and fluffy, totally unlike the more common dry and and compact version. My guess is that they skip the initial frying step that helps keeps the starch together. It's quite fragrant and has gives a bit of heat. On top of the rice is a layer of hash browns. The potatoes are tender on the interior, griddled on one side to give a delightful crunch, although there's some acridity that develops. Another third of the plate is covered with chili beans - tender pinto beans that are well salted and seasoned. Then there's the eggs stuffed in between layers of corn tortilla chips, smothered with sauce. I went with the Christmas combination of red and green sauce, followed up by the Fratelli-style pork green chile. The green sauce is fragrant and vegetal, while the red sauce is more smoky. The pork, which is cut into chunks, on top is a bit tough and dry but there's more than enough sauce to make up for that slight demerit. Finally, there's a small mound of I believe jalapeno peppers, cut into small neon-green colored pieces. Some pieces are spicy, some are mild, all have a vegetal pepper taste. I found the food at MartAnne's to be pretty good. It definitely hits the spot after hiking all around the area for most of the day. Bathrooms - Two individual rooms, one for men, one for women. Note: MartAnne's charges a 3.5% credit card fee. This is labeled on the menu.
Checked them out for breakfast. Small parking lot can be an issue so you might need to park in the downtown are and walk which isn't too bad. Friendly staff that keeps your water full, ordered food and received our plates pretty fast. Cute and quaint with local art on the walls for sale. We enjoyed ourselves and with the food being top notch I'm sure this will be a staple in our traveling when we return.
The first time I ate here was during breakfast. I remember saying that was the best breakfast I've ever had. Came back for the lunch menu and tried the birria tacos. Delicious again! This is quite the local favorite spot for Mexican cuisine. Service was a bit wonky with orders because my aunt's order was wrong but got it corrected quickly. Just sitting watching others in the restaurant, it appeared they got their orders wrong as well. Not sure where the mix up starts either from taking the order or the back of the kitchen. I hope to try this place when in town.
MartAnne's has potential, but my visit was definitely a mix. When we walked in, both Griselda and the younger host looked directly at us and still didn't say hello or acknowledge us. No greeting, no "give me a moment," nothing. It was awkward and honestly not the welcome you expect from a busy restaurant. The whole vibe changed once Sophia, our waitress, came over. She was warm, attentive, and the only staff member who actually made us feel welcomed. She's the reason the experience wasn't a complete miss. Food: about 3.8/5. Pricing is reasonable for the portions. Our order: Vegan tacos (2 a la carte, $5.99 each) One crunchy, one soft. A bit too charred and missing a sauce element. Vegan cheese would level them up. Fish taco plate ($17.99) Easily the best fish tacos I've ever had. Great seasoning, great texture, and the beans and smashed potatoes (no cheese) were excellent. Street carne asada tacos (3 for $17.59) Just okay -- flavorful enough but not memorable. The beans on the side were great. Red chile beef taco ($5.29) Underwhelming and lacked depth. The food had some standout moments, especially the fish tacos and the beans, but the lack of greeting when you walk in really affects the overall experience. Sophia was the highlight of the night with her service. I'd come back for the fish tacos, beans and potatoes but I'd ask to sit in Sophia's section. for sure.
Wow this place was amazing! After a long day traveling, site seeing, and getting in late, the next morning we wanted something hearty and delicious. We found exactly that! The place is very well decorated with artwork from a local artist. Each piece was amazing to look at. The service was amazing! The staff is very friendly, very professional, and explained the nuances of the menu in detail. Amazing food rounded out a stellar experience. The plates were extremely generously portioned, the ingredients seasoned well, presented beautifully, and mixed together in a great ensemble. This is a must visit breakfast/brunch/lunch place in flagstaff.
I visited MartAnne's based on a recommendation for breakfast and we were seated right away. Our server was nice and took our order. We ordered a Horchata latte, a vanilla latte, an Emmett, which is vegan and one BBB pancake. Let me just tell you, the food was in incredible and the coffee was just as good. The Horchata latte was gigantic and was practically two drinks in one. My partner and I ate everything and I was very pleased. Our tab was not crazy expensive so that was nice. This ambience of the restaurant was cool and eclectic and I really liked it. Overall, I would come back if I'm ever in town.

I've been to Flagstaff plenty of times and don't understand how I have never been here. This was the first time I decided to try it and I will say, it is worth the stop. The food is on point. From the seasoning, the look, the smell, and how fresh it all is. I was very impressed with it. Servers were friendly and had some great recommendations when asked. I honestly want to say I must return and try something different from their menu every time. This place really stands out with the unique names that they give each dish also. I highly recommend for people to try this spot, especially if they like Hispanic food. read more

Picked up 2 fish tacos @$4 for dinner after Grand Canyon day trip. Each taco is packed with 2 huge pieces of cripsy fish filet and heaps of chopped tomato, cilantro, jalapeno. It's messy but oh so tasty! On to Alburquerque and Santa Fe tomorrow. Flagstaff may be a college town but should be a mandatory stop for anyone interested in the Old West. read more

YUM! Came twice for b'fast in only our 2-day trip! Shared a meal cuz I knew how big they were, added fruit side, nice sized bowl for good price! They're super busy but servers don't miss a beat; coffee and water kept flowing and they checked on us often. Really love all the artwork, and the food was excellent; had the chilaquiles one day, enchilada y huevo the other. Had an iced white mocha, really good. Everything was great!! Only knock would be that they need to CLEAN their restaurant better; saw 3 different huge spider webs on the chandeliers and windows. I love spiders but not near my food! read more
Always a great meal here. The restaurant is sort of crowded and noisy, with lots of el Día de los Muertos art on the walls. The portions are large, and the food is very tasty. Service is always fast and friendly. Be sure to check out the daily specials that aren't on the menu! read more

Omg this place was delicious. Recommended from a local outdoor store as the place the locals go and it was delicious. Give it a try if in Flagstaff. You want be disappointed!! read more
I don't think I've ever gone up to Flagstaff without a stop at MartAnne's - it's a brunch/comfort food staple! I generally always get the green chili pork plate - the meat has good flavor and the whole fish comes as a huge serving. You definitely won't leave hungry or you'll at least have some leftovers to take home. There is generally a decent wait to get in on the weekends but the food comes out relatively quickly once you're seated. read more

Visiting my niece & her hubs in Flagstaff. I am from New Jersey. They said they must take me here. I'm so glad they did! The food was great! So many choices & breakfast all day. But not your typical breakfast. Banana split French toast,, Huevos Benedicto. Just to name a few. I had the Devine tacos. 2 tacos rice & beans & this melted gooey slightly crusted cheese that was over the top of the beans. There were 6 of us, so there is way too much to comment about. Every comment would be a positive. We all shared the mini donuts! DONOT GO HERE AND NOTGET THEM! They are faboo & a must get. The service was friendly, if not a tad too fast? We were in there for only about an hour. The painting all around the room were eye catching & all for sale! Absolutely a great yummy place to go. Super casual & fun! read more

Good service, great food. Nice vibe. Fun "day of the dead" artwork everywhere. Went for breakfast and got huevos rancheros. Great green chile sauce. Surprisingly good cappuccino with it as well. Tried to go previously and there was a long wait. Went today and waited a while but not bad. Happy to wait next time for such good food. Will try again for lunch and dinner. read more

Came in for breakfast and left stuffed! I had the pork green chili omelette, this came with rice, beans and hash browns. It was so filling and the green chili had a good amount of spice to it as well. My husband had the "hungry Mexican" and he liked it. My kids had the Gringo and the Banana split French toast, they both liked that as well. No complaints here, coffee was great also. Our server Gavin was awesome! He was so friendly and answered all our questions, he checked on us throughout breakfast and we never had to ask for refills on coffee as he always had a pot in his hand. The restaurant was decorated with day of the dead decor and everything was tied together well, the atmosphere overall was inviting. Will definitely recommend! read more

The breakfast plates are so big, expect leftovers or expect to split a plate! I enjoy getting the chilaquiles Christmas style (red and green sauce). The coffee is just ok, but the food is amazing and the service is friendly and quick. I love the paintings on the wall and the lovely decorations. read more
Food was very tasty. A little kick to all the meats. Steak asada tacos fresh. Beans and rice were good. Classic burrito very fresh. Margarita had just enough salt and not overwhelming alcohol flavor. Service was quick and easy. Spacious room to sit did not feel cramped. Nice view of the old Flagstaff train station. read more

We had a late lunch/early dinner here during our visit to Flagstaff. Our food was delivered quickly and was pleasing to the taste. Still, we had an incident that we felt was not handled as well as it could have been. After we received our entrees, a person in our group of six asked for extra salsa. Our server accidentally spilled all three salsa containers on two people in our group (myself included). The server quickly tried her best to wipe off the salsa which was in one person's hair and all over the clothing of two of us. Her cleaning attempt was a fail. We had to go to the restroom and do our best to wipe off as much as possible. It was too much to get off even then. We had to wash our clothes (and hair) when we got back to our Airbnb. The server offered nothing beyond "don't move" as she wiped off the salsa and a "you have a lot of salsa on you" comment. While I wouldn't have necessarily expected our entire bill to be comped, comping the meals of the "injured" parties or offering dessert or SOMETHING would've been greatly appreciated. As for the food, like I said, it was tasty. We pretty much finished our food. In my case, I misunderstood the menu and wound up ordering the wrong meal. That was my bad and I don't fault the server for that. I thought I was ordering the chilaquiles, but I ordered a combination of an enchilada and a tostada. I thought I was ordering chilaquiles and an enchilada. Overall, our server was attentive but her handling of the spilled salsa left us feeling meh about the place. We love to eat out. And we love great service as much as great food. She made us feel some type of way about the incident. She acted like "Hey, stuff happens" and that should be ok with it. Though the food was good we probably won't return for another visit. read more

Do they take reservations?
I'm not sure if they do, we got there for the first time and they were very busy but got us seated and served very quickly!
Is the Mexican food authentic?
Yes, but it's not Sonoran style Mexican food. It's like a Northern Mexico-New Mexico mix.
No regrets making a trip to this amazing place. Food was really delicious especially the green chili pork. And yes, portion are huge but make sure you leave rom for their incredible desserts?
I got an email from good ole Yelp asking me to answer this question... Yes! Make sure to leave room for dessert. Always. Although, it will be challenging at MartAnne's as their portions are humongous!
