What to Look For in Mexican Restaurant
Mexican food at the Jersey Shore ranges from authentic taquerias to Tex-Mex cantinas to creative fusion spots. Many of the best places are modest-looking storefronts serving recipes from specific Mexican regions. The shore's fishing culture means excellent seafood tacos and ceviches. BYOB Mexican restaurants are particularly popular - bring your own margarita fixings or Mexican beer.
