Yesterday my friend Emily and I went to try Munich's new taqueria, Wa*haka (Edit: it's now called Taco Libre). If you live here you've probably had one too many interesting experiences with strange and supposed Mexican food concoctions... I'm talking marinara sauce as salsa, yogurt sauce as a topping, and carrots in a quesadilla without any queso. 
I like their nod to Frida Kahlo, but even better is the food is actually edible and does resemble Mexican cuisine - down to black beans, pico de gallo, and queso blanco. I had the quesadillas and she ordered a burrito and we were both pleasantly surprised [here's the menu].
My only slight complaint is the food could be seasoned better, but they have bottles of hot sauce so you can spice things up yourself. I have to remember I'm in Germany, where people don't do spicy. We're lucky to even have a Mexican Chipotlesque restaurant here.

If you are ever in Rosenheim (about 30 minutes away from Munich) there is a fantastic Mexican restaurant right along the river. I don't know the name anymore but I can ask my friend who lives there still if you would be interested. The only weird thing we came across there was broccoli in the burritos!
Thanks for the tip Ashley! I also heard they just got a TKMaxx in the Rosenheim area as well. I might need to make a trip!
Keep adding to the reasons to come to Munich. Looks like I'll need to spend a long weekend there :)
I only know of two less than impressive Mexican restaurants here in Stuttgart.

You're always welcome to come! We won't be here for Thanksgiving or I'd invite you guys for that. We'll figure something out though.

You should also check out Milagros, which is a new restaurant close to Viktualienmarkt. They also have delicious Mexican food. I hope you have a wonderful time visiting!
