Two plates of street tacos at Taqueria La Guadalupana topped with chopped onion and cilantro, served with grilled jalapeños, radishes, lime and a basket of tortilla chips

Fajitas: Grilled strips of meat served with tortillas and accompaniments, often arriving at U.S. restaurants on a dramatically sizzling metal platter with onions and peppers. Fajitas developed in the ranching and border culture of Texas and northern Mexico and became a Tex-Mex restaurant staple. The name comes from faja, referring to the strip or belt-like cut associated with skirt steak. Chicken, shrimp and other versions are now common. Alambre is a different Mexican dish that may scratch a similar itch: chopped grilled meat with peppers and onions, often with bacon and melted cheese. On this menu as: Fajitas · Fajita de Res · Fajitas de Pollo.
Huevos rancheros & breakfasts: Huevos rancheros generally consist of fried eggs served over lightly fried tortillas with a cooked tomato-and-chile salsa and beans. Huevos divorciados, or "divorced eggs," separate two eggs with different sauces, usually red and green. Huevos a la mexicana combine eggs with tomato, onion and green chile. Machaca con huevo mixes eggs with shredded dried or cooked beef and is particularly associated with northern Mexico. On this menu as: Huevos con Chorizo · Huevos Rancheros · Huevos a la Mexicana.
A la diabla, al mojo de ajo & other seafood styles: Several phrases recur throughout the seafood section of Mexican menus. A la diabla means "devil-style" and usually signals a spicy red chile sauce. Al mojo de ajo emphasizes garlic, commonly cooked with butter or oil. Al ajillo also centers on garlic, often paired with dried chile. A la veracruzana refers to the Veracruz style of preparing fish in a tomato-based sauce influenced by Spanish Mediterranean cooking, commonly including olives and capers. Exact recipes and heat levels vary by restaurant. On this menu as: Camarones a la Diabla · Camarones al Mojo de Ajo.
Torta: A Mexican sandwich, usually made on a bolillo, telera or another soft roll. Fillings can include milanesa, ham, carnitas, al pastor, eggs, avocado, beans, jalapeños and cheese. Several regional sandwiches belong to the larger torta family. Guadalajara's torta ahogada is "drowned" in sauce. Puebla's cemita uses a distinctive sesame-seeded roll and may include quesillo and pápalo. A pambazo is dipped in red chile sauce and griddled. On this menu as: Torta · Torta Cubana.
Carne asada: Grilled beef, chopped or sliced for tacos, burritos and plates. Skirt, flank and other relatively thin cuts are common, with seasoning ranging from little more than salt to marinades containing citrus, garlic or other ingredients. Carne asada is particularly associated with northern Mexico and is also the name for the social tradition of gathering around a grill for a carne asada cookout. On this menu as: Carne Asada.
Carnitas: Pork slowly cooked until tender, traditionally in its own fat, with some pieces allowed to brown or crisp. Carnitas are strongly associated with Michoacán. Dedicated carnitas shops may offer different cuts and textures rather than simply "pork." Maciza generally refers to leaner meat, cueritos to skin and buche to stomach. Carnitas may also be sold by weight for groups and takeout. On this menu as: Carnitas de Puerco.
