Where is the best Mexican restuarant in KC?

[acesn8s]

I'm sitting here getting ready to eat a burrito and thinking of a restuarant that I grew up with. It was authentic Mexican. Jorge (the owner) would go home to Mexico City to visit his mother and bring back a recipe to add to his menu every year. It was the best! But now he is gone and I can't find a Mexican restuarant that isn't like all of the others in town.

What say you ChiefsPlanet?

When I go to Manny's, what should I order? What do they do best?

[wutamess]

everything is on par.

I usually get the chicken tacos. enchiladas are good too.
Can't go wrong with a chimichanga.

I am not a huge burrito fan, but IMO they have the best burritos in town.

However, someone earlier was correct in saying they charge for extra chips and salsa....their only downfall.

Without question, get the Monterrey Burrito. Far and away my favorite Mexican restaurant, and also the best bang for the buck overall in the city. BTW, I usually go for lunch, and we've never been charged for extra chips and salsa.

We ate at Don Chilitos for lunch today. We didn't like the school lunch line atmosphere. The beans and rice were dry, although the entrees were good. Overall I feel like we had to work a little too hard for the price we paid.

He did order a burrito, but I'm not sure if it was this one or not. I had the enchiladas with sour cream and olives. There was plenty of sour cream on it. I usually have to ask for extra.
