Why is the plate hot......

Cause they keep the whole thing under one of those oven lights

I work in the IT department of a casino and people are constantly leaving thermal printers under those damn lights. 2nd melted receipt printer I had to replace this month.

The painted on cracked wall is spot on.

>city of 1 million people
>closest thing to a Mexican restaurant is Taco Bell and chipotle

This is actually very accurate

That pic is accurate, but I WISH my local Mexican places would give me that much sour cream. I always get like 3 little cumdrops with my burrito.

>can we get a queso dip?

that taco looks fucking good though

Exactly, these restaurants are always cheap but somehow so good. For the lunch special at my place that plate would cost $10, 3 items, such as tacos, burritos, enchilladas, quesadillas, etc, and rice and beans, but it's fucking tasty as shit.

why is everyone on ck so obsessed with cum

the one I like best is called Tlaquepaque
but the closest one is El Campesino

There's about 6 dozen of them around here, and they're all identical.
Don't really give a shit though, there's one that serves up one of those enormous plates full of nothing but chorizo con huevos

Bump

>cumdrops
Are you sure that's sour cream?

>Live in S. Texas
Jajajajajajajajajajajaja

Don Jose, south california place. Theres one in riverside, corona, anaheim, irvine etc...a few other places. Always top service and food

El Nopal, Kentucky chain of basic ass generic mexican restaurants.

Pic really sums it up to a tee. You also gotta throw in bathrooms that say "Hombres" and "Chicas"

The one from my hometown was called Guadalajara's

Its a superfood

El Mexicano. It nonironically has that same painting.

el mexicano

do u live in fairhope, AL

Northern Mississippi
Guadalajara Grill

It's pretty damn good Tex-Mex considering the location.

mine is called El Mariachi

no margaritas though, unfortunately. On the other hand they sell every kind of jarritos.

No, not even American, sorry.

mine is also El Paso

Casa Cafe.
Food is decent, but locals treat it like a mecca of "real Mexycan".

la fronterra. minus the margeritas, I don't think they got a liquor tag. not great but, eh, it's close. Was molcasalsa before it folded.

not in Australia ;~;

Los Maguey's.
They're alright. Cheap tacos on Wednesdays and generous amounts of Tequila in their margaritas.

RIO

I get annoyed when people will bitch and moan about getting "real" Mexican food over places like this. Going to an authentic spic illegals working behind the counter place is fine but sometimes I just want a big pile of shit covered in cheese and refried beans.

El Patio

We have El Jalisco, Los Compadres, and San Miguel, but I think that there are others that are exactly the same, but I don't go to them because the food sucks at the others.

You shoot it into a girls open mouth after she sucks you...What is there not to get!

I live near the border so I hardly see cheesy mexican restaruants.

Do you live in Florida? Pic related is my place

Cherokee street AKA lil Mexico in Saint Louis. Every place on the street is amazing but don’t loiter after dark

My local Mexicans started charging extra for the queso.

Casa Flores

Carlito's, and they have this thing where a bucket of Tacatis are cheap as fuck on Wednesdays. I actually like that place.

Cape Coral?

I used to live in Mobile and know exactly where you're talking about.

lol get fucked idiot

I have two favorites in town. One is literally this, although they have the best chips I have ever eaten. This is largely due to the seasoning and that they make them super fresh so they always come right out of the fryer and nice and hot. The second one isn't as over the top and on the weekends has mariachi. The second one also has more actual Mexican dishes but they tend to lean northern Mexico with all the egg dishes.

Acalpulco, a small chain that's spread from N. KY up to central OH.

I only go there if we don't order/make food for our RP groups and we're all down for eating out. After 4-6 hours of RPing, getting drunk as fuck on shitty margaritas and stuffing your face with salsa, chips, 'queso' and carnitas is fantastic.

I love Juan's in Berkeley. This type of texmex is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Just give me all that sauce, refried beans, tortillas, cheese, let me stuff myself on chips and salsa while I drink Negra Modelo. The best

Lots of restaurants heat their plates because cold plates suck heat from the food.

theres this mexican restaurant that is very popular with the white suburbanites around here
I went there one night and the menu was mostly items I never heard of and couldn't pronounce properly

but the main thing is the number of birthdays. During the course of my dinner there were 5 birthdays where they roll out a little mariachi group and then after the birthday song they yell UNO DOS TRES TAQUILA!!! and they take a taquila bottle and hold it to the birthday persons lips and they take a big gulp

and then I notice after the birthday thing is over the taquila bottle just goes right back up on the shelf. They don't even wipe the rim
and all these people were swapping spit with strangers all night and didn't even know it

KY?

Sals or Toledos

Pancho's is god tier

authentic mexican burgers :-DD

El Nopalito and El Nopal.

I live in Salem, Oregon. Literally every Mexican restaurant around here is this. All the same shit. Probably owned by the same family.

God how I crave for something like a Cuban place to open here so I don't have to drive to Portland every time I want good pork and tostones.

The one that's a ten-minute walk from my place. The owners/managers can properly speak English and the fajitas are excellent.

nope, mine is in pennsylvania

My favorite place in the area(Boston) is called Mi Salvador Mexicano in Chelsea. Fairly authentic and they have a Latin bakery/grocery attached. I love how they have karaoke of old banda and traditional Mexican music and caguamas of Corona Familiar. Really fun place to get drunk and eat good food.

>no queso

Is this just a southern thing?

Like half of the restaurants around here are like that. Maybe because I live on a town that borders Mexico and there are mostly Mexicans around here.

Some small place called CK's Cantina, although they don't have those salsa bowls

“Ooooo This salza is hot” “i’ll have the chicken quesadilla, no onions”

I didn't laugh until I saw the bricks showing

pic related

all of these places are fronts. my town has about 3-4 ones under different names but they have the exact same menus+prices kek

In Norway where I live there is, for obvious reasons, no tradition for Mexican restaurants. But like every other Western nation we are getting increasingly Americanized because everbody sits around all day watching American shows on Netflix. A couple of months ago a taco place opened up just down the street from where I live. I pass there pretty often and I have only seen guests in there twice. I've seen the employees sitting around watching their phones looking bored as hell several times.

Most of the family owned restaurant in my town are just like this. I had dinner at one tonight, actually. I love this kind of food, grew up on it so proper Tex Mex is comfort food.

Veeky Forums is like 80% female

one place i went to you could not even touch the plate like they got it out of the oven after 20 mins

A lot of the restaurants have all the beans, rice, enchiladas, etc premade. They spoon it all on a plate, throw a fistful of cheese and chopped onions on top, and run the entire plate through a conveyor belt oven, that's why the plates are dangerous hot. And the cold plate is exactly what they say it is. They keep those plates in a big cooler or freezer and put the crunchy items like tacos and tostada's on it, the cold helps keep the shells from getting mushy.

Sounds like a dream
These places are shit, they're worthless except for greencards

Heat will conduct out of your food on a cold plate really quickly.

Used to work in a place that heated plates for entrees then kept cold plates for salads and shit.

Florence? This is my goto place, has 32oz beer for $2.50 during happy hour

Did your El Paso just add a patio?

how far south, compadre?

Mine's called El Sombrero, but they have a salsa and chips bar, so you get your own refills. Their food is pretty good for middle of the road average mexican-american food.

My local one has a few qt shota waiters

because they prep the meal beforehand, and reheat the entire thing in an oven when it's ordered. then they garnish it after.

>go to a "mexican restaurant"
>don't get free tortilla chip
>have to pay to get some
fuck that shit

iktf

literally walked out with my gf once we got to the table and realized and gave no fucks

Fellow Louisvillean?

We like to put our plates into the salamander because it heats the plate up along with the rest of the meal

Monterrey's Mexican Grill

Probably the closest is my local chuy's
512 here btw

Rudy's, the one in the West End

My restaurant is called mi casa, it's above taco Bell, but it's pretty low for Mexican food. At least it's a decent value

It has literally everything in the picture except the jose cuervo flag. I'm sure they would get one tho

They also have wanted posters for pacho Villa posted up and shit
And they also have Corona bottles as salt/pep shakers

I've never been to another one like it tho, I didn't even realize this was like a trend for restaurants

There's a lot of us on Veeky Forums it seems

I'd say that's the vast majority of mexican restaurants in my area. I can think of about half a dozen like that in close enough distance I could be at in 25 minutes or less.

Kudos to the places with dishes that sound like the owner/cook came up with drunk like tortas with 5 thousand ingredients including "wieners"

We've got one called Guadalupe, it's run and patronized by Dominicans, they play earsplitting bachata ''''music'''', everything is inexplicably expensive for the neighborhood, and there's sometimes a suspiciously expensive sports car parked out front or nearby - either a BMW i8 or a Ferrari 458.

I have my suspicions about the place, but they are only suspicions. It's popular enough that I have no concerns about ingredients going bad, the food is decent if inauthentic, the drinks are quality, the service is acceptable, and the Dominicans are a friendly and agreeable people even if their slurred Spanish is totally incomprehensible, so who am I to judge if a local "entrepreneur" needs his own personal laundromat.

If anyone ever goes to [spoiler]Fairborn OH[/spoiler] El Riacho is the best generic Mexican place I've ever eaten at.

Fug I forgot some boards don't have spoilers please laugh at how much cock I suck

Taco King

El Ranchero.

Op image is 100% with the quality of food being directly proportional to the amount of young brown children and small tv's with soccer running 24/7. Carnitas, chilli Verde to die for and an abortion of a burrito with all the good shit.

El Agave. Not the best Mexican, but decent and great for the price.

Camarones a la Diabla please

How the fuck can one picture be so accurate? The one near me is called Sagebrush and it has the exact same painted on wall cracks, neon signs, and salsa bowl. It's also absurdly busy all the time despite not being THAT good.

I visited Trondheim last year. They had a decent local chain called Tacopedia.
