Dishes to know on this menu

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 & Salsa · Camacho Herb Guacamole.
Birria: A richly seasoned meat stew associated with Jalisco, traditionally made with goat but now frequently prepared with beef as well. The meat is braised with dried chiles and spices and may be served in a bowl with broth or used as a taco filling. Modern birria tacos are often griddled after the tortillas are dipped in the cooking fat. Add cheese and you'll commonly see the name quesabirria. A cup of consomé for dipping often comes alongside. On this menu as: Braised Beef Birria · Birria Pizzadilla.
Tostadas: Corn tortillas cooked or fried until crisp and used as a flat base for toppings. Beans, shredded meat, tinga, ceviche, seafood, lettuce, crema, cheese and salsa are all common possibilities. Unlike a folded taco, a tostada stays open-faced. Eat it with your hands and accept the crumbs. On this menu as: Tuna & Shrimp Tostada · Chicken Tinga Tostada.
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: Quesadilla de Huitlacoche · Corn Quesadilla de Chicharron.
Ceviche & aguachile: Ceviche combines seafood with citrus juice and ingredients such as onion, chile, cilantro and tomato. Recipes vary throughout Mexico's coastal regions. The acid changes the texture and appearance of raw seafood, but it does not make raw seafood microbiologically equivalent to cooking it with heat. Aguachile, particularly associated with Sinaloa, is commonly made from raw shrimp dressed shortly before serving with lime, fresh chiles, cucumber and red onion. It can be seriously hot. Cóctel de camarón is a shrimp cocktail commonly served in a tomato-based sauce, while campechana usually combines several kinds of seafood. On this menu as: Shrimp Aguachile · Cocktail Ceviche.
Salsa verde & roja: Salsa verde is a broad category of green salsa, commonly built around tomatillos and green chiles. Salsa roja simply means red salsa and covers countless recipes using tomatoes, dried chiles, fresh chiles or combinations of them. Salsa taquera is the kind of salsa made specifically for tacos and varies from shop to shop. Salsa macha, associated especially with Veracruz, is an oil-based salsa made with dried chiles and often nuts or seeds. Color is not a dependable heat scale. Taste first. On this menu as: Guacamole & Salsa.
