Chapultepec Lupita

For the nights when you can see only in vibes, there’s Chapultepec Lupita, which has been around since the 70s. The pages-long menu features a blend of Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, which means you can get chapulines as a complement to a supreme burrito doused in cheese and stuffed with sizzling fajita meat. If you’re new to Chapultapec Lupita they’ll tell you to seat yourself, but most regulars barely pause at the entrance, and make a b-line to their TOC (Table Of Choice). And everyone here after hours is on a mission to pad their stomachs with as much fajita meat as possible. That’s why we love Chapultepec Lupita— it’s an “if you know you know” Montrose deep-cut that serves the community while other taco places slumber.
