95.3 did a Munch Madness in March and I didn’t agree with how they did it. They paired up restaurants that didn’t need to be paired up, like Central Mesa (Mexican) vs. Evangeline’s (fancy American food). You can’t even compare those two because they are different cuisines and are different price ranges. So, I decided to do a similar thing but instead, I am listing restaurants from the same cuisines and asking my friends and family for their favorites.
This week I am focusing on the Mexican cuisine.
All the Mexican favorites that were mentioned were:
Iguana Grill
Jalapenos
El Rincon
Taco Mama
Don Tonos
Pastor’s Kitchen
Chuy’s
Central Mesa
La Bamba
La Fiesta
Taco Bell
Taco Casa
Chipotle
Moe’s Southwest Grill
Los Tarascos
La Gran Fiesta
La Cocina Modern Kitchen
But the top six are as follows:
Taco Bell vs Taco Casa
These two are both fast food. If you are from Tuscaloosa, you usually will choose Taco Casa over Taco Bell. If you are from anywhere else, you will most likely choose Taco Bell. But, you will love Taco Casa’s sweet tea.
Moe’s Southwest Grill vs Chipotle
These two are not considered fast food but they also aren’t places you would have a nice sit-down meal at either.
Los Tarascos vs La Gran Fiesta
These two are places where you could take a date and have a nice sit-down meal.
After asking on Facebook, Snapchat, and Group Me; the winners are...
Taco Casa
Moe’s Southwest Grill
Los Tarascos
Do you agree or disagree? I personally agree. What are your favorites?
Stay tuned for the next installment of Tuscaloosa's Favorite Restaurants where we will be focusing on the best Chinese restaurants!
