You needed to get out more. At least, more than Los Hermanos. Some really good choices here now.

I honestly don't get why people like fast food chain "Mexican" restaurants

I actually mostly just like Taco Bell because it’s delicious.

One does need to bear in mind that Taco Bell food expires in precisely 5 min.

I don’t eat Taco Bell because it’s Mexican food. I eat it because it’s delicious and makes me happy

Fair enough.

Cheap.

You just need to open your heart. There’s room for Taco Bell and taco trucks.

Tonto

Go eat yourself a quesalupa and TELL ME that isn’t delicious. Get over yourself.

Easy- not everyone is as hip or eclectic as you

I'm not a fan either, but there's no accounting for taste.

You can get a lot for cheap and know what you’re gonna get.

I ate it a lot when I lived in Utah county because it was the best tasting

Did you live in Utah in the 50s? There are tons of good Mexican places.

Hypnotoad

Cafe Rio doesn’t count

fredetteaboutit13

4/6/21 9:51pm

I wasn't thinking of Cafe Rio

Hypnotoad

I really like Bajío but find it too similar to Cafe Rio.

Where do Qdoba Knock Out Tacos fall on the spectrum? They’re pretty tasty.

Hawk in the 303

Sounds like you didn't get out much

mobius

There’s tons of okay Mexican places.

I can legitimately fill up for $3. Whats not to like?

Backcountry

you got to separate the idea that they are both mexican food.

zephyr

This is correct

I like top quality Mexican and I like Taco Bell. I love the burger at Gramercy Tavern and I love a good Quarter Pounder

Tim

The fast food versions came out years before in most places you could

USMCdad

4/6/21 9:23pm

This makes sense to me. I'm just surprised by all the Taco Bell love here.

MetaLearner

4/6/21 9:27pm

I don’t think a lot of adults when they get hungry at home

USMCdad

4/6/21 9:33pm

There are plenty in this thread that seem to think that...

Fast food Mexican is infinitely better than that La Casita place that people

WDaddy

4/6/21 9:24pm

Agreed, that place is not good.

Totonacos in SF. Get the chicken mole enchilada or chicken with chorizo. That’s my new fav there. Craving it now.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 9:36pm

You are my new favorite person. Thanks for the recommendationsz

WDaddy

4/6/21 9:42pm

It’s solid Mexican all run by families from there. All 3.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 9:44pm

Black Sheep is good too but more expensive. It’s a Navajo-Mexican fusion. Great pork enchiladas and Navajo tacos.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 9:52pm

Holy Taco in Orem if you like tacos al pastor.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 10:01pm

I love authentic tacos and other Mexican food. I also like Taco Bell. It's a different niche.

jdub

4/6/21 9:24pm

Taco bell is delicious and eating the cinnabon delights is a spiritual

IceCreamButt

4/6/21 9:25pm

Those are good, but I still miss the Caramel Apple Empanadas. They were better.

jdub

4/6/21 9:27pm

Prefer Taco Bell and taco time over any taco cart/truck

cougfanz

4/6/21 9:26pm

Taco Bell has the best steak quesadilla

PizzaPipeline

Every time I give McDonald's a chance it ends up tasting bad.

Crunch wrap supremes is a top 10 fast food invention of all time.

CSoul

4/6/21 9:34pm

It’s one of the most overrated items IMO. But to each their own.

Memmo

This. Crunchwrap Supreme is one of the best fast food items out there and the

Unless you are in AZ, Texas or California the Mexican food available isn’t great

Fargo

Lots of good Mexican in Utah now. Authentic run by families from Mexico. Food trucks too. Good options here now.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 9:42pm

I wouldn’t know southern Utah. I know Salt Lake and the Mexican food is nothing

Fargo

4/6/21 9:45pm

I posted southern Utah county. Like Provo south. Plenty of places now.

Turnpike Lane

4/6/21 9:50pm

I agree 100% on the Mexican and 80% on the burgers

JollyGreenGiant

4/6/21 9:42pm

Because it tastes good to them?

Peter Venkman

4/6/21 9:58pm

It's cheap. End of story. I can't really eat it anymore but it's cheap

Liar, everyone likes taco bell. Admit it.
