Mexican & Tex-Mex menus -- frequently asked questions

What's the actual difference between Mexican and Tex-Mex?

Tex-Mex developed in Texas and leans on shredded cheese, flour tortillas, and combination platters; traditional Mexican regional cooking varies more by region and uses corn tortillas, fresh herbs, and less melted cheese overall.

Why do some taco menus price by the piece and others by the plate?

Taquerias serving street-style tacos usually price per taco (often $2-$4); sit-down Mexican restaurants more often price a plate of 2-3 tacos with rice and beans as one combo.

Is chips and salsa usually free?

It varies by concept -- fast-casual chains almost always charge for chips, while many sit-down Mexican restaurants still comp a basket as a table courtesy.
