As a Mexican, it's super hard to find good, authentic Mexican food in Flagstaff. Lots of "locals"…read more() will lead you astray with their recommendations however, Madrez is the spot to be!!! I've eaten here countless times and I'm never disappointed. They serve breakfast and lunch and have a variety of dishes, including vegetarian options. Their waffles are incredible as are their burritos, skillets, tostadas, and gorditas. Breakfast always comes with a side of whole beans (flavored with ham hock) which are super fresh. I can truly say there's nothing bad on this menu! The staff is always super welcoming and friendly and the ambiance is refreshing. It's a smaller space and it does get pretty busy, so be aware of that. The best part is that the cafe is family owned, with roots in Playa del Carmen, MX. I HIGHLY recommend Madrez if you're looking for a delicious and authentic Mexican brunch spot. Support local!

Unfortunately, it felt overpriced for what we received. The portions were quite small, and overall…read morethe food didn't live up to the cost. My partner and I ordered a chorizo burrito, a skillet poblano, and a plain waffle. While everything was just okay, it honestly felt like something we could have made better at home. I especially wouldn't recommend the waffles -- they were very airy, almost like toast, and at $14 they just didn't feel worth it. Overall, it wasn't a terrible experience, but it's not somewhere I'd return to.

Plenty of parking around, and plenty kids/adults in Christmas outfits which made this place magical. Hotel is located in pine tree forest, which is amazing with a lot of hiking trails through the woods, even the playground is in the the woods which is amazing. They also have outside pools which is facing the wood. There is pathway to the hotel, everything is super organized and nice. On the front entrance there are people who are very helpful. Hotel lobby is also magical with fire place and nice sofa and beautiful decorations. On the right side there is a check in point for North Pole experience which is also super organized with no confusion. Definitely will stay here next time. All the employees were super nice and helpful

Stayed here on two occasions in June and overall impression is it's a nice resort type hotel in…read moreterms of room and facilities but service could use improvement. We had a standard queen room both times and it's spacious, bathroom has two sinks one in and one out so yconvenient for two people sharing. The pool is a roundish shape but large enough to swim some laps when there aren't a lot of children there. There are four 2 level inter connected buildings and #4 being the furthest away from the lobby - you can park your car (parking is free) close to any building but it's a bit of a walk on foot. Location is a bit out of town not walking distance to downtown Flagstaff. Rating it a 3 star due to service. On a day when they don't seem to be full they still wouldn't accommodate a late check out by just an hour (at noon instead of 11 am) which I didn't think would have made any difference to them but would have made a huge one for us. Then there is the breakfast. Nice dining room and all, but service was slow and the food came lukewarm, this at a time when it was early and hardly anyone in the dining room. And in addition to that, I had tea and it came in a tea pot with one weak tea bag, and as I like my tea strong I asked for another tea bag in the same pot and was told I'd be charged a second pot of tea ($5). This kind of stinginess just doesn't befit the seeming stature of such a hotel. And finally, the teacup they gave me had a long crack in it - I discovered it when i saw the saucer filing up with tea and didn't think I spilled any in it. The crack was old and stained, not a new one, so it was shocking that no staff had noticed it for this long and cared enough to not continue using it. Let's just say I'd never encountered broken cups like this in lesser priced motels. For this trip to Flagstaff I also had a two-night stay in another hotel downtown and other than the swimming pool, it was much better value and more comfortable with more helpful staff - and no broken tea cups!

After reading several reviews, I decided to give Northern Pines a try, and I'm glad I did. One…read morething to know before you go: many older reviews mention that breakfast is served all day, but that's no longer the case. If you're planning on breakfast for dinner, you'll need to adjust your expectations. That said, the dinner more than made up for it. I ordered the ribeye and had them top it with a couple of over-easy eggs. The steak was cooked perfectly--exactly the temperature I requested--and was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The runny yolks made an already excellent steak even better. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient without feeling rushed. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it an easy choice whether you're a local or just passing through Flagstaff. Northern Pines has clearly earned its reputation for quality comfort food. Even though the all-day breakfast is a thing of the past, the dinner menu stands on its own. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Flagstaff.

We were lucky enough to stay in the hotel next door and decided to grab dinner. Our waitress was…read morefantastic! She was so welcoming and kind. The staff all were friendly and worked so well together. We all ordered different items, and the food came out nice and hot. She made sure to keep the waters refilled, and checked on us often. Best news - we came back for breakfast! We ordered five different entrees, and again great choices. The egg Benedict and banana split pancakes were highlights.

After eating next door for a lunch, we saw the signs all over MartAnne's claiming they are "The…read moreHouse 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.

I was turned away at the door because they do not allow dogs.

We also ordered their green chile pork + egg plate that came with diced onions and potatoes. Asked for the eggs to be over medium and they came out over hard. The pork was pretty tough and the potatoes were too crispy for the overall meal itself and it lacked sauce. Also came with two flour tortillas but they were super small, street taco size. Don't think I'd personally come back, but they have decent reviews so maybe they are more known for other items on their menu.

We were seated right away and quickly greeted by our server. We Looked over the menu while he brought us coffee. I asked his opinion between the ham steak (which was featured on diners drive ins and dives) or the hash. He said the hash was more food so I went with that. Wife had the OG Wolfpack and a Yes Chef to drink. Waiter said they were known for their fresh squeezed oj so we had to get one of those. Drink was good, was essentially a screw driver. Oj was good, could tell was fresh squeezed. Hash was good, was a lot of food, couldn't finish it all , came with 2 eggs and a slice of toast Wolfpack was good, it's 2 eggs sandwiched between hash browns. Has a spicy sauce that wife ordered on the side as she's not into spicy food and wasn't sure how spicy it would be.
