After visiting multiple restaurants that specifically cater to southern american food I have a good insight into what's out there, what's original, and more importantly, I now know what I like (visual and taste wise).
Unfortunately, my research is hindered by not being able to actually visit Mexico, or any restaurants within Mexico. Not brilliant. Perhaps there will be a lack of authenticity throughout? We shall see.
First of all I took a trip to 'BARBURRITO'- they have a solid concept, which has aided in a solid visual designs throughout the chain. They use well known mexican connotations/stereotypes such as donkeys to relate to their consumers, who, like me, have probably never been to Mexico.
I also visited 'Bodega' in Brimingham. First and foremost the food was amazing. Again, the branding, menu designs, cocktails list, posters etc were all so well designed- using playful colours and visuals yet keeping its' rep by kitting out the place so stylishly. Unfortunately my camera died just as I tucked into my frijoles, so, here are some images from the site:
'Sandanista' is a small bar come club come restaurant that has tasty tasty food, with a Mexican Monday offer that's quite frankly BANGIN'.
The sites design is pretty poor, though I can see where they're coming from with the colour scheme and typeface, though the place itself is legitimate.
