There is plenty of tex-mex around... Preston Rd. just north of Campbell. I think it is called El Rodeo and not counting the 35 combo platters, there are over 100 menu items offered. So far (been 3 times), everything I've gotten there has been pretty tasty and made me want to revisit. For a different kind of mexican food experience: I like Javier's Gourmet Mexicano a lot. It is what they call "Mexico City Cuisine". Basically, it gives the feeling/atmosphere of visiting a nice restaurant in Mexico City. The "filet cantiflas" is a real good. A filet steak stuffed with *real* mexican cheese served with a chile mulato sauce and fresh sliced avocados on top. Also, you might want to try a side order of the mushroom crepes. Damn good. If you go, arrive a little before the reservation so you can walk through the place and visit a few of the bars. The last one in the back is a cigar lounge. For finishing off the night, get the "flaming coffee", it will treat you right if you like coffee type things. It's serving presentation is nifty, it really is on fire. I've been a bunch of times and always enjoyed it.
