Any good authentic Mexican restaurants?

[Burntorange Bowhunter]

I don’t know about as far as authentic goes, but really good. Best Chili Reno I’ve had, raisins and pecans sound weird but are good in it!

It is authentic Tex Mex. Better than Mexican.

What is "authentic" Mexican food?

Do we have "authentic" Texas food?

Of course we do. It's the best.

You know it's authentic if they have seafood (marisco's) and the menu says "shrimps".

That sounds like soul food. Lol.

Camarones.

Our customer base is 90% gentleman from south of the border. Quite often they'll bring us food or drinks from their favorite places (generally taco trucks or home). Tortilla, meat, cilantro, lime and onion. Haven't seen anything with cheese yet. I don't like it as much as tex mex, but I don't feel nearly as bad after eating it.

The one authentic thing I got was a barbacoa taco served with tortilla, cilantro, onion, and lime. Pretty good!

I could eat that every day for the rest of my life and be happier than a pig in sheet.

El Jimador in Angleton used to serve up some good barbacoa tacos, but I haven't eaten there in a good while since their prices went up and portions went down.

Monterey House, Beaumont, Texas

I love that place, but that’s about as texmex as it gets.

Casa el Torito is really good in south Ft Worth, not tex-mex. The churros are the best I've ever had.

Theres one in Burnet. I dont remember the name but its in the old laundromat. Used to be one in Lampasas next to Tractor supply, dont know if its still there. Both use to have authentic Mexicans cooking authentic Mexican food.

Memo's or El Rodeo? I'm guessing Memo's.

[NVR2LATE]

Is Larry’s still on Hwy 90 in Richmond?

Still there and still the best cheese enchiladas I've ever had.

[Kingfisher789]

I'm NOT asking if there are any good places to eat Mexican food. Just wondering if there are any like we had back in the 80's and 90's. Oh man I can remember the smell walking into one.

Seems like all are the same now.

Camino Real. Spicewood Springs Rd and 183. Closed on Monday. Get the beef enchiladas with gravy and onions.

This just a good "mexican food" place or is it like old school with homemade tortilla smells, brick arches, sombreros etc?

On every corner where I come from. F j b

So, you’ve been to Tracy’s in Pt Arthur (not Mexican food)?

6 shrimps & 6 oyster

So Authentic Mexican is a taco on soft corn tortillas with cilantro and onion. I make better authentic Mexican food than anyone in Mexico. Lol.
