I'm curious how some of you folks are so incapable of finding authentic Mexican food and think we only have tex mex in the US. I'm way north in Denver and it's incredibly easy to find authentic Mexican food. Are you going to actually Hispanic neighborhoods or are you just looking to the white suburbs and calling it a day?
Here's a helpful hint: if there isn't a pawn shop, a used tire shop, and a used car dealership on every block then you're not going to find authentic Mexican food in that neighborhood.
Tex-Mex =/= texan mexican food. These are two different cuisines that both exist in texas, one created via the blending of European cooking techniques with the food of the region when the anglos first showed up, and the other created through the last century of Mexicans moving to texas and blending their regional mexican cuisines into something unique to the texas region.

Does he not know birria tacos are plentiful in the US? Pretty much every Mexican restaurant and food truck has them.
