Burritos: A flour tortilla wrapped around a filling. Northern Mexican burritos are often relatively slender and focused on one or two fillings such as beans, machaca or a guisado. In the United States, the form developed in several directions. San Francisco's Mission burrito is large and typically includes rice, beans and numerous fillings. San Diego's California burrito famously adds french fries. A wet burrito is covered in sauce and eaten with a knife and fork. On this menu as: Burritos, Tacos & Quesadillas · Veggie Burrito · Traditional Burrito.
Quesadillas: A tortilla folded around a filling and cooked on a griddle or comal. Cheese is standard in many regions, but Mexico City famously complicates the definition: there, a quesadilla may need cheese specifically requested. Fillings can include squash blossom, huitlacoche, mushrooms, meat and many other ingredients. Flour-tortilla quesadillas are particularly common in northern Mexico and the United States. A mulita, associated with northern Baja and Southern California taquerías, sandwiches meat and melted cheese between tortillas. On this menu as: Burritos, Tacos & Quesadillas · Cheese Quesadilla · Chicken & Cheese Quesadilla.
Enchiladas: Tortillas filled, rolled or folded and served with chile sauce or another sauce. Corn tortillas are traditional, but preparation varies widely by region. Rojas use a red sauce, while verdes use a green sauce. Enmoladas replace the chile sauce with mole, and enfrijoladas use a bean sauce. Enchiladas suizas are typically topped with a creamy green sauce and melted cheese. Tex-Mex enchiladas developed their own traditions, including versions topped with cheese, chile con carne or chile gravy. On this menu as: Chicken Enchilada · Mole Enchilada.
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.
Birria: A richly seasoned meat stew associated with Jalisco, traditionally made with goat but now frequently prepared with beef as well. The meat is braised with dried chiles and spices and may be served in a bowl with broth or used as a taco filling. Modern birria tacos are often griddled after the tortillas are dipped in the cooking fat. Add cheese and you'll commonly see the name quesabirria. A cup of consomé for dipping often comes alongside. On this menu as: Birria Dilla.
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: Fish Taco.
