Since day one in Fontana
Chapala Cafe & Grill is family owned and family run at 15891 Foothill Blvd in Fontana. The name comes from Lake Chapala in Jalisco — the region our recipes come from, and the reason you will find Guadalajara staples like tortas ahogadas, carne en su jugo and birria de res on the menu next to coastal Sinaloa-style aguachiles.
Birria is simmered overnight so the beef pulls apart by morning. Salsas are ground in house daily. Mariscos are cut and dressed to order rather than pre-mixed. Nothing is bought pre-made and reheated — that is the difference guests taste and the reason Chapala holds a 4.4-star Google rating across hundreds of Fontana reviews.
Most Fontana restaurants pick a lane. Chapala runs a full Mexican desayuno menu from 8 AM, a lunch and dinner menu of tacos, molcajetes and traditional plates, a complete mariscos program, and a catering operation that feeds crews, congregations, offices, weddings and quinceañeras across the Inland Empire.
Taco bars, birria and carne asada stations plus late-night taco service for receptions across Fontana and the Inland Empire.
