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.

This place rocks. Authentic roadside Mexican in a concession trailer. Food was great, presentation on paper plates and picnic tables in a steel carport was great. Nice ice cold Mexican Coke in glass bottles with lunch. Food was really clean and really authentic. Loved it. Looking forward to going back soon. Prices are a bit high for roadside food, but flavor, authentic atmosphere, and kind service made the price with it. Not the absolute best I have ever had, but authentic in so many ways that it doesn't matter. The flavor and quality is all there

Nothing against Tony and his tacos but there is much left to be desired. I grew up around road side stands and taco trucks and I've had 10x better food for less $$. The food isn't bad but it's nothing above average. Their salsa is closer to a pico de gallo and the lack of meat options made me miss more authentic fare. I'm a big rice fan so I'm glad to say that the rice is good and you can tell pretty much everything on the menu is hand prepped. But again, main reason for the 2 star rating is that this place is far from good of you've ever spent some time in another part of the country where they serve down home quality Mexican food.

Tony's is a small food truck off the side of the road, but don't let that stop you. The food is great. Very fresh and oh so tasty. My only issue is the salsa can be watery, so its best to order your salsa on the side. I have tried many of the menu items and all of them have been good.

For the area this on the side of the road Mexican trailer is very good. The menu seems pricey if you are used to dining at taco bell. The $6.99 chips and salsa is a shocker...overpriced for what you get. As for the rest of the menu....it is above average. The pulled pork that is featured in the meals is superb. The customer service is average. For the area of the state they are in it gets four stars...if it was in Detroit or other more populated regions it would garner three stars....

FYI we recently tried to stop at Tony's. not only was it much further south of town than the address and map indicated but it was closed. The sign said it was reopening but did not have a date. The phone message with open hours was obviously not accurate.

By far my favorite Mexican food stop here in mid-/NE Michgan -- and I mean REAL Mexican food, not Taco-Bell-style. It is totally worth sitting outside at a picnic table, or in your vehicle, to enjoy Tony's fresh, authentic food. While I like a lot of things on the menu, my favorites are the carne guisada, the huarache (made with a delicious puffy corn bread that's split like pita bread to hold its meaty goodness), and the chorizo/potato dishes. Tony and his daughter are also really friendly, helpful hosts as well as talented cooks. We were rooting for Tony's sit-down restaurant to succeed, if only for the selfish reason of wanting to be able to eat his food during the wintertime, but in our visits there we were frequently frustrated by the clueless, un-professional local help (seriously -- if you work in an ethnic restaurant, LEARN TO PRONOUNCE THE NAMES OF THE FOODS YOU'RE SERVING, and actually taste them sometime so you know what you're trying to sell), and didn't enjoy visiting his establishment as much as we'd enjoyed -- and now again enjoy -- his roadside stand. Viva Tony's Tacos! We will keep referring travelers your way!

I've been going to Tony's for quite a few years. I'm glad to see he went back to the roadside stand because the restaurant just wasn't as good. And the waitstaff was just collecting a paycheck. I camp on the Au Sable with buddies and go through Standish to get there. I can not (and I stess CAN NOT) go through the area without stopping at Tony's. His food is just awesome! Authentic and tasty! Even got a couple of my camping buddies hooked on it! Great food, Tony and his daughter and super people and where else can you get some Mexican soda? Ok, there's a little place by my house that sells it, but Tony's is worth the trip. Looking forward to the next month or so when I'm heading back up to stop off. And on the way back. :D Updating to add that Tony has a new trailer! much bigger! Same location right on 23 just off the I-75 exit. Finally got a chance to take my wife there and they do make dishes that don't have flour tortillas so if you're gluten-free, you can get great food at Tony's!

Pretty good Mexican food. It is fresh. And Tony, I guess that's the owner's name, he is a nice friendly guy.

We found this place by accident when leaving Pinconning (we got lots of cheese!) and boy, what a great find! Authentic Mexican, so much so that you can get fresh ceviche. I am not an authority on authentic Mexican, but I do like fresh, well cooked food. And that's what you get here. The last time I was there, I got heuevos rancheros, the fresh shrimp ceviche and 20 tamales that I reheated on a grill. My family ate them so fast there was a single cornhusk wrapper left spinning on the plate. Amazingly great food!

Stop here! We were tickled to find this place on the way up to Charlevoix. The fresh, chunky guacamole was my favorite part.

Great taco stand. Fresh flavors. Good variety. Cheap prices. Tried all the meat tacos - the barbecoa was tops!

The trailer is back! My dad turned me on to this little carnival-esque stop on the way up north about 8 years ago. Since then the owners tried to open up an eat in place but this year I noticed they are back to the trailer-except now it's on the other side of the road and they added a nicer picnic area. The food here is really outstanding-as close to Mexico as you can get outside of SW Detroit. I am always really confused as to how the owners ended up there though? Ah well, onto the food. The seafood cocktail appetizer they serve is ridiculous. I know, I know, seafood at a roadside STAND??!! Alas, I am adventurous and my immune system can handle it. The seafood is shredded shrimp of some sort with avocado, tomato sauce/salsa of some sort, queso fresco and delicious homemade chips. The bf always gets the tacos and you can see the meat simmering on the portable stovetop as you order. The guacamole is to die for. This is particularly amazing since fresh avocados aren't exactly easy to come by that far north. It's fast and convenient on the way up north or home; waaay better than McDonald's!! And they'll do everything carry-out if need be. It's packaged well enough to survive 3 hours in the backseat. Oh and they have those Latin American bottled soft drinks if that's your thing-personally I think they taste like flat watered down garbage. One word of caution-they only have port-a-pottys so do your business elsewhere.

As we were driving through Standish we were looking for a place with decently fresh food (ie. not fast food) and we noticed something different...a Mexican place with "authentic" on the sign (an overused title when it comes to Mexican, IMO) which appeared to be new this summer. So, we stopped in. I was initially VERY dissapointed. The hostess who sat us, the waitress who waited on us, and the overall look of the place was totally 'run down up north greasy spoon', which prepared me to be very disappointed. The waitress asked us, in passing, if we wanted chips and salsa and we said "sure"...then we looked at the menu. The first thing we noticed was that, under appetizers, was "chips and salsa" for $6.99!!! I just about lost it. Something most places give for free was $7? And we ordered it without knowing that! When they came they were fairly dissapointing...round chips that looked like Tostitos and a red tomato salsa (so much for authentic). But, then we tasted them and I was confused...it all tasted a bit like the real thing...hmm.... So, we ordered (I got enchiladas and the wife got a taco). When the food came I was once again confused. I was totally prepared to dislike it, but the enchilada was filled and topped with queso fresco, not some store bought blend. It was actually decent, and my wife had the same thought. She raved about the hot salsa on her taco. When the bill came I was quite anxious to see if the chips and salsa disaster were there...they were not. I'm not sure why they have them listed on the menu that way when they gave them for free. I didn't ask, I simply paid and was fairly happy, yet still a bit conflicted. It seemed to me like it was a really confusing mix of authentic and not...and I couldn't decide which way to take it. As a side note, when I asked the cashier how long they'd been here, I learned it was new in April...but only new in this location. This is the same resturaunt that used to be in a portable trailer (for 10 years!) a bit south outside Standish. It was always crowded. My take away is that this explained ALOT...the food was good (as it must have been from the trailer location) but the presentation and atmosphere needed some serious help....Hopefully over the years they'll get that part down and this will be a much more solid 4 star place to eat.
