Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Best tacos in waterloo/Cf and probably Iowa. The cilantro is plentiful and the limes are always included. Also, the burritos, albeit different, are always a must! EAT HERE!

I'll be a fan of any place that serves tacos de lengua. Mine were especially tasty, made with lovely little corn tortillas and fresh cilantro. My lunch crew also liked carne asada tacos and a burrito. They've got an English language menu board now, so no surprises. :-D My only complaint might be that the portions were a bit small. We ordered a la carte, and for those who like to stuff themselves with beans and rice, you'll need to order accordingly. On the other hand, it was nice to eat authentic Mexican food without filling myself up to the very brim....perfect for a quick lunch and very convenient to downtown Waterloo.

We've been coming on and off for a few years here. The food never disappoints, even if we can't always quite pronounce it, staff is friendly, and it's close to down town. Especially love the gorditas (which seem to be seasonal) and the chimichanga

Solid, authentic Mexican food. Delicious tacos and plenty of other options too. Try the tacos with tripas!

so this place is BEYOND authentic. You basically better know Spanish if you want to order. OK, not that bad, but close! You order from a menu screwed to the wall and hope you did ok if you aren't from south of the border. then you take a bottle of something to drink out of one of the coolers all along the wall and try to find the bottle opener (hint, its bolted to the trash can.) Then you ignore the sleeping old Mexican man at the one table and the busload of guys who just descended on the place. I tried a tongue burrito and chips and guacamole. The guacamole was clearly homemade, and the very best I have ever had in my life. The chips were so-so at best. Although the guac was really that good, they really skimped on the meat in my burrito and just filled it with rice, and there was no sour cream or cheese, so it turned out to be too carb heavy when all said and done. I ended up leaving much of it there, after cleaning the guac bowl with my finger, of course. $14 later I left hungry. So while its truly an authentic Mexican experience, the portions are maybe half of what you would get at Chipotle for twice the price. Next time maybe I'll just stop by and order some of the incredible guac to go and then take it to Texas Roadhouse to eat with a big juicy steak or something.

Found this place while looking for a taco truck and was blown away! Great Authentic tacos and rice! Service was also excellent. Will definitely be back when I'm in town again!

By far the best authentic Mexican I have had outside of Mexico. I even took my sister in law who lived in San Diego and she loved it! If you want real Mexican food this is the place to go. Rice and beans are a must and don't be scare to try the tongue taco. I just hope they bring back the habanero orange sauce!!!

Great REAL Mexican food. You can always tell a great Mexican restaurant when you are the only one speaking English. I had the Carnitas Tacos and a Mango Jumex (I would normally go strawberry but they were out). Shells were warm and just crispy enough in spots. The Carnitas were well prepared, and I am pretty sure finished to order. The cilantro and onion were very fresh. They brought a Salsa Verde and a Salsa Rojo to the table and both were very delicious. I just moved to the area recently, but I am happy now that I found a place to get a great taco. The atmosphere is what you would expect and they serve beer (mexican varieties and Chelada) no frozen margaritas here, but if you were looking for that you need to go someplace else anyways. I grabbed a fresh cookie from the store they run next door as well very good traditional Postre.

The best tongue taco I've ever had! Awesome guac and you really can't go wrong with any of their other tacos all seasoned perfectly
