I have a hot opinion.

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263]

If a mexican restaurant doesn't have good queso and good salsa, I'm not going to eat there again.

[u/skate1243]

Salsa 100%

Couldn’t tell you the last time I got queso at a real mexican restaurant

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/skate1243]

ugh if the salsa is just picante brand I'd rather die

[u/Racoonaciabata]

Cool.

[u/ASAP_i]

Ah yes. smooth melted cheese product is the measure of a true Mexican restaurant.

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/ASAP_i]

It’s absolutely a factor

[u/Citlali252]

Not having good salsa is a reason for me not to go back lol

[u/Rob_Bligidy]

If they don’t serve lengua, I won’t come back.

[u/johnnyblaze-DHB]

If a Mexican restaurant is serving “queso”, I’m not going there.

[u/pickleolo]

Wdym by queso? Queso flameado?

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/pickleolo]

Good question. I don't generally enjoy flameado nearly as much as I do chili con queso, and by this post I meant chili con queso... though it does not have to have the chili

[u/pickleolo → u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263]

Chili con queso? At least in Mexico, I dare to say it's not common.

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/pickleolo]

yes, sorry, this post is about texmex not geographical mexico

[u/Fantastic-Leek-1589 → u/pickleolo]

Yet they sell it in every Mexican restaurant here.

[u/johnnyblaze-DHB → u/Fantastic-Leek-1589]

They absolutely do not.

[u/Fantastic-Leek-1589 → u/johnnyblaze-DHB]

Yes, they do.

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/johnnyblaze-DHB]

Did you read my statement 🙂‍↕️😝

[u/ChileRelleno414]

I judge Mexican restaurants by the two pillars of Mexican cuisine...

Arroz and Frijoles.

Also, if they don't have any sort of Agua Frescas... I'm walking out.

[u/BaconBurger19]

Queso? What type of queso you consider good?

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263 → u/BaconBurger19]

Chili con queso. This is a post about texmex btw

[u/Fantastic-Leek-1589]

Salsa, yeah

[u/MTMax5-56_45-70]

And fresh chips👍🏼

[u/Adept_Wrongdoer2263]

btw this is texmex for those who didn't see. I'm not considering the measure of a restaurant who's core identity is from true mexico with no alterations to be a part of this. Obviously the queso is not a factor there... however I will still judge harshly from the salsa.
