10 Cities That Hold the Title for “Best Mexican Food” in the U.S.
Who doesn’t love Mexican food?! Over hear, we live for tacos. According to a recent online discussion, here are what people think are the best U.S. cities for Mexican cuisine — in no particular order.
1. Los Angeles, CA

“Los Angeles, and it’s not even close,” argues an Angelino. “It’s not an extension of the border town: it’s a bonafide Mexican metropolis, the largest Mexican city outside of Mexico.” This declaration makes a lot of sense, considering L.A.’s huge Mexican community.
2. Albuquerque, NM

With a hint of swagger, New Mexico’s largest city speaks next; they have the food’s name in their state, after all. “I (will) take Albuquerque’s New Mexican food over San Diego’s Mexican food any day.”
3. San Diego, CA

“We have awesome Mexican food here,” says a proud San Diegan, “In San Diego, it seems to be consistently good.” With its proximity to the Mexican border, there is no surprise northern Mexican cuisine is in high supply.
4. El Paso, TX

“San Diego is the best for Baja-Mexican Food,” agrees an admirably diplomatic Texan. “El Paso is the best for Chihuahua-style Mexican food, especially with the green chili El Paso puts in their Mexican dishes.”
5. Las Cruces, NM

“If you Google the top-ten restaurants in Las Cruces,” suggests an ex-resident of the border city,” I’m pretty certain that at least eight out of ten will still be great Mexican food restaurants!”
6. Phoenix, AZ

Arizona joins the thread with a proud Phoenix resident who believes “anywhere in AZ is killer.” They continue with a recommendation. “My favorite Mexican restaurant, though, is Rosita’s Place in Phoenix.”
7. Tucson, AZ

“My family is from Tucson,” shares our next foodie.” Sonoran-style flat enchiladas are my absolute favorite!” Now, eating Sonoran flat enchiladas in the dream landscape of Sonara — now, that would be an experience.
8. Santa Fe, NM

I must add my old hometown to the list as it has the best Mexican food I have tried. It is, of course, mostly New Mexican fare, but that counts. Santa Feans’ blend of indigenous ingredients, like their custom fire-roasted green chile sauce, makes New Mexican food so authentic.
9. Austin, TX

Sharing a border with Mexico is an unfair advantage in the cuisine rating stakes, but Austin falls into this blessed group. Texas is famous for great Tex-Mex food, though authentic Mexican restaurants abound. Veracruz Tacos in Austin is renowned for some of the best tacos nationwide.
10. San Antonio, TX

“San Antonio has the very best Mexican food ranging from hole-in-the-wall places to upscale eateries,” suggests our next thread guest.
