Interior of Donkey Taqueria in Grand Rapids: exposed-brick walls strung with papel picado stars, communal wood tables and stools, and an Avion tequila barrel

Carnitas: Pork slowly cooked until tender, traditionally in its own fat, with some pieces allowed to brown or crisp. Carnitas are strongly associated with Michoacán. Dedicated carnitas shops may offer different cuts and textures rather than simply "pork." Maciza generally refers to leaner meat, cueritos to skin and buche to stomach. Carnitas may also be sold by weight for groups and takeout. On this menu as: Carnitas · Carnitas Verde Brunch Burrito.
Al pastor: Marinated pork cooked on a vertical spit called a trompo, then sliced for tacos. The style developed in central Mexico from spit-roasting techniques brought by Lebanese immigrants and is related to shawarma. Many versions use dried chiles and achiote, and pineapple is a common accompaniment. In Tijuana and parts of northwestern Mexico, a closely related style is commonly called adobada. Preparation varies, and not every restaurant advertising pastor uses a trompo. On this menu as: Al Pastor.
Carne asada: Grilled beef, chopped or sliced for tacos, burritos and plates. Skirt, flank and other relatively thin cuts are common, with seasoning ranging from little more than salt to marinades containing citrus, garlic or other ingredients. Carne asada is particularly associated with northern Mexico and is also the name for the social tradition of gathering around a grill for a carne asada cookout. On this menu as: Carne Asada.
Tinga: Shredded meat simmered in a tomato, onion and chipotle-based sauce. Chicken tinga is particularly common, although beef and pork versions exist. Associated with Puebla, tinga frequently appears on tostadas, tacos and sopes. On this menu as: Pollo Tinga.
Baja fish tacos: The classic Ensenada-style fish taco pairs battered and fried fish with a corn tortilla, shredded cabbage, creamy sauce, salsa and lime. The style is strongly associated with Baja California and has had an enormous influence on Southern California taco culture. Menus may also offer grilled fish or similarly prepared shrimp tacos. On this menu as: Pescado.
Flautas & taquitos: Filled tortillas rolled tightly and fried until crisp, usually served with some combination of salsa, crema, cheese, lettuce or cabbage. The names flauta, taquito and taco dorado overlap considerably. In some restaurants, flautas are longer; some regions or restaurants distinguish them by tortilla type. Others use the terms almost interchangeably. The menu in front of you gets the final say. On this menu as: Flautas de Papa.
