Dishes to know on this menu

Enchiladas: Tortillas filled, rolled or folded and served with chile sauce or another sauce. Corn tortillas are traditional, but preparation varies widely by region. Rojas use a red sauce, while verdes use a green sauce. Enmoladas replace the chile sauce with mole, and enfrijoladas use a bean sauce. Enchiladas suizas are typically topped with a creamy green sauce and melted cheese. Tex-Mex enchiladas developed their own traditions, including versions topped with cheese, chile con carne or chile gravy. On this menu as: Enchiladas De La Casa — Cheese · Enchiladas De La Casa — Beef · Enchiladas De La Casa — Green Chicken.
Quesadillas: A tortilla folded around a filling and cooked on a griddle or comal. Cheese is standard in many regions, but Mexico City famously complicates the definition: there, a quesadilla may need cheese specifically requested. Fillings can include squash blossom, huitlacoche, mushrooms, meat and many other ingredients. Flour-tortilla quesadillas are particularly common in northern Mexico and the United States. A mulita, associated with northern Baja and Southern California taquerías, sandwiches meat and melted cheese between tortillas. On this menu as: Quesadillas · Small Cheese Quesadilla.
Guacamole: A preparation built around mashed or crushed avocado. Common restaurant versions add some combination of onion, cilantro, chile, lime and salt. Tomato appears in some versions and inspires surprisingly strong opinions. Guacamole may be chunky or smooth, prepared tableside or made ahead, and recipes vary enormously by region and kitchen. On this menu as: Guacamole Dip · Guacamole Salad.
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: Pollo Asado.
Street tacos: "Street taco" is a broad U.S. menu term usually describing a small, relatively simple taco inspired by tacos sold from stands and taquerías in Mexico. A common version uses one or two small corn tortillas topped with meat, onion and cilantro, with salsa and lime added by the diner. But taco styles vary tremendously across Mexico, so tortilla count and toppings are not a definition of authenticity. At U.S. taquerías, tacos labeled this way are usually priced individually and intended to be ordered several at a time. On this menu as: Commerce Street Tacos.
Flautas & taquitos: Filled tortillas rolled tightly and fried until crisp, usually served with some combination of salsa, crema, cheese, lettuce or cabbage. The names flauta, taquito and taco dorado overlap considerably. In some restaurants, flautas are longer; some regions or restaurants distinguish them by tortilla type. Others use the terms almost interchangeably. The menu in front of you gets the final say. On this menu as: Flauta Plate.
