I've seen a Tine Board poster vomit in the parking lot of the restaurant after inhaling an entire Elvis special.
No alcohol involved.

How do you know if you're getting Tex mex or Mexican?
Easy, just look at the menu. If the name of the dish is in Spanish and the description is in English, it's Tex Mex. If both of them are in Spanish, it's Mexican.

You, sir, have awful taste and probably like dirty tejano SA mex food that makes you have an hour appointment on the toilet in short order.

Where is your Tex mex of choice then, ese?

Tortas Las Llardas @ 11460 Fuqua St, look for the strip center in the parking lot next to FTU. Aim for the street tacos. Trust me on this.

This is why we need to fragment this thread into different discussions.

There is a large spectrum of "Mexican" "Tex/mex" etc in the city of Houston.

I AM NOT trying to take this to Tex mex vs traditional mex food.

But you have some posters over here trying to compare Long Point taco trucks to Lupe/El Tiempo/Guad/what have you.

Just not worth it. I would, however, love a new 2023 version of best fine Tex Mex in the city today.

Our regular spot for 20 years. Early Tine days were at the Kirkwood location going back 40+ years.

Uncle Teo's on Bellfort is a bit more "car jacky" but the food is better and cheaper.

Don't think they have been for years. It was our post-last call, go-to spot for a lot of years... cheap, large, greasy servings and "te amarilla" after hours... great spot for the late-night drunks like us. The Kay's Lounge / Volcano / La Tapatia triple-header was always a fun night.

Then they went the "legit" restaurant route a number of years back.
