SSFB Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 1 hour ago, AKIQPilot said: Ummm, wrong. I've eaten Mexican food in almost every state in the union and a half dozen cities in Mexico. The west coast is definitely not the best. Mexican food on the west coast is doused in large quantities of chili power. It's complete shit. The only decent mexican food on the west coast comes from the little road side taco stand where the guys behind the window speak no english. That is a fact. So where's the best Mexican food in the US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best plates of Mexican food I have ever had was at MiCasas in New London CT. The Asteca in North West DC is good but very expensive. Uncle Julios in Rockville MD is very good. Taqueria Habanero in DC is very good. Espita Mezcaleria in downtown DC is great mexican food. I've had decent mexican food in Phoenix. Hole in the wall places where a plate of enchiladas is $6.99. I'm just not a fan of the heavy chili powder mexican food. I like a much lighter sauce that isn't based on chili powder. Most of the mexican food in the southwest is covered in gravy sauce made with chili powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringo Mexican food is just that. If they have chimmy chongas on the menu, it’s white people food. The best places are the ones that don’t have the menu written in English.

One thing I will give the southwest is their chips and salsa. They serve very good salsa, very thin hot chips and a runny bean dip that is bad ass. It's a staple in almost every decent mexican restaurant in the southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put this in you file for when you are in Elk Grove again. This store has a taco stand in the back. Only about 6 stools to sit,so I always take out. Their tacos are some of the best I’ve had. @Edmo, do you know about this place? You should. Edited March 18, 2019 by Woodtick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Jackson Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 My business partner also has a business in Los Cruces N.M. He brings back chili sauce made by the locals. Takes a good gringo to handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lalos has a all you can eat Mexican lunch buffet that is ok for the price. They are well known for their margaritas. I work up in that area all the time.

My job takes me all over so I have found some hidden gems around town. It's funny because when we have meetings close to one we always try to schedule it close to lunch.
