What to expect at a Mexican restaurant

Mexican food is one of the most widely loved cuisines in the US, and it ranges from the taqueria with a handful of tables and a salsa bar to sit-down restaurants focused on a single region such as Oaxaca, Jalisco, Puebla or the Yucatán. Tex-Mex – with its combination plates, yellow cheese, fajitas and chili con carne – is its own distinct tradition born in Texas.

What to order

  • Tacos al pastor or carne asada – the taqueria benchmark, usually on small corn tortillas
  • Enchiladas or a mole dish – a good way to taste the kitchen’s sauces
  • Burrito – a meal in itself, especially in California-style shops
  • Tamales – often made in batches and sold out early

Good to know

  • Chips and salsa are free at many sit-down restaurants but not at most taquerias.
  • Weekend specials such as menudo, pozole or birria often sell out before evening.
  • Ask how spicy a salsa is – heat levels vary hugely from one kitchen to the next.
