I love fajitas, and know that they are not really “authentic’ Mexican cuisine. So what? That doesn’t make them bad. If my “authentic” Mexican restaurant also serves fajitas, does that make them inauthentic? I don’t think so. I like Jai Jalisco in Spanish Springs, as the food is fresh and generally good. I also like El Ranchito on the other side of 441, as it is everything I like in a Mexican restaurant - a little bit shabby and has really good refried beans. If you have a Jones for “authentic” Mexican food, I suggest you head for a small town in a place far from Mexico City or Tiajuana. Not The Villages.
