Authentic Barbacoa Served In Moorpark & Burbank, CA
El Tapatio didn't start with a business plan, it started with a family that knew how to cook. What began as recipes passed down over generations grew from one taqueria in Moorpark into a second Mexican Grill in Burbank. We're not chasing trends, we're keeping a tradition alive, now in two kitchens instead of one.
Our kitchens run on the same principle they always have: real ingredients, real technique, no shortcuts. Meats are marinated and grilled to order, salsas are made in-house daily, and our salsa bar is stocked generously because we'd rather you leave full and happy than counting napkins. Whether you're in Moorpark or Burbank, it's Mexican food built on patience, not a heat lamp.
Our Moorpark location sits on Los Angeles Avenue, a warm, no-frills dining room where the smell of grilled onions and fresh tortillas greets you at the door. Our Burbank location, right at Victory Boulevard and Buena Vista, brings that same family spirit to the Media District and Toluca Lake area. Two cities, one taqueria.
You've heard the story, now taste it. Order online from whichever location is closer, Moorpark or Burbank, and get the same quesabirria, carne asada, and salsa bar favorites you just read about, ready for pickup, no wait required.
