Am I the only one that just doesn't taste a lot of variability in Mexican food
restaurants in the US? I'm excluding fast food here. To me, nearly every Mexican restaurant I have eaten at in the US is extremely similar in quality and taste. They nearly all have very similar menu items. You have enchiladas, tacos, chimichangas etc. You can choose ground beef, shredded beef, or chicken. And I nearly always enjoy what I eat. It doesn't matter if it's a Mexican restaurant in Salt Lake or St. George or if it's an allegedly "authentic" restaurant in Las Vegas, San Antonio or San Diego.

San Diego/Cali mex is great but it's not true Mexican. Neither is Tex-Mex. Luckily I love all three types

In the US I think you're right. I do prefer Ameri/Cali/Tex ified versions to "authentic" here. Real stuff in Mexico city

No you're not the only one. Lots of people have that take because they're either not going to the right places or live
