Mexican joints are a dime a dozen in Texas, but El Manantial in Amarillo is the closest thing you'll get to the true authentic stuff without having to cross the boarder. More of a hole in the wall than anything else, this Mexican restaurant is known far and wide for its amazing cuisine. Find made from scratch daily made corn tortillas and hot sauce that packs on the spice as well as the flavor. The usual serving of tortilla chips come with three different kinds of salsa, including a white bean and spices dip. Everything is utterly delicious and tastes like your abuelita has been up since 5a cooking it! If you still have room after a filling meal here, be sure to try their famous tres leches cake.
