Depending on where you are in the world, all Mexican food is not created equal, but if you are in the Netherlands and have a craving for tequila and tacos, there are a couple of places you can go. For good, and even more importantly, authentic Mexican food in Amsterdam, choose one of these places.

The pylons
This is the only authentic Mexican restaurant in Amsterdam – we're talking mole sauce, stewed meat dishes with a serious kick, and 20 different types of tequila. It's also a refreshing alternative to the countless hungry tourist traps in the Leidseplein area (there's also a Jordaan neighborhood location).

Tomatillo
This is fresh Tex-Mex that won't break the bank, and according to the website, they even strive to use environmentally responsible ingredients whenever possible. Burritos, tacos, tostadas, and salads sound delicious. And this might be the only place in Amsterdam where you will find (properly) a true green tomatillo sauce.
