Guacamole is a main draw for many people at a Mexican restaurant. But, just like the salsa, guac can make or break a meal. Is there anything worse than less-than-fresh guac? Unlike other sauces, making it ahead of time isn’t an option, as avocados go bad fast. Luckily, some chains serve super fresh guacamole, often made right before you at your table. Here are 6 Mexican chains serving the freshest guacamole in America.
