Madero 1899 offers Mexican-inspired cuisine made entirely from scratch and using only the freshest seasonal ingredients, housemade sauces and seasonings. Located in Downtown Fullerton, we serve lunch, dinner, happy hour, weekend brunch, and our famous Taco Tuesday served ’til midnight. We offer an array of beers, premium tequilas, and signature cocktails, including our handcrafted Margaritas.
Madero 1899 was formally known as Matador Cantina. To celebrate our 15th Anniversary, we changed our name to honor our history. While ownership, staff, and the cuisine and hospitality we are known for remain the same, patrons can expect a fresh take on downtown dining with interior enhancements, new items, and a focus on family-friendly offerings. While regulars will be happy to see many of their favorites that brought Matador accolades such as “Best Mexican Restaurant, “Best Margarita”, “Best Chile Relleno”, “Best Taco Tuesday” and “Best Happy Hour”, they can welcome many new items.
Don’t miss out, get your favorite Margarita with Herradura Tequila!
