Not necessarily (but mostly true). Both Fonda San Miguel and Ay Chiwawa serve mexican food like they do in Mexico (or I do in my kitchen). The latter also serves tex-mex btw. IMNSHO tex-mex is different enough from cal-mex and southwestern (and mexican, of course) to be recognized as a distinct cuisine.

Fonda San Miguel - one of the best restaurants in Austin, IMHO.  I've never been to Ay Chiwawa, but will give it a try, based on your recommendation.
