  I don't know about New Mexican style Mexican food either, but I wanted
  to put in a plug for the Tortilla Factory in Herndon.  I've been going there
  for over ten years.  Food is good, portions are large, and service is usually
  good.  The one time I had bad service, I complained and they bought my meal.

  On the other hand, I went to Rio Grande for the first time the other day,
  and I have only the following comment:  If you are vegetarian, do NOT go there.
  Truly amazing that there exists a Mexican restaurant with no veg food.
