Tijuana's Mexican Kitchen, Detroit

After 20 years in the restaurant business, the owners of the family-owned Tijuana's Mexican Kitchen embrace tortillas as a highly versatile food. The flour wraps form the foundation of diverse dishes, including chimichangas, tamales, fajitas, enchiladas, and a fresh-prepared Mexican sandwich built on three flour tortillas slathered with gravy-drenched layers of rice, beans, and beef. After washing their entrees down with their choice of margaritas, desserts such as churros bring meals to a decadent conclusion.
