Mexican restaurants often have a hot sauce rack or varying degrees at the table. (Aside: Mexico is where chilies were first cultivated) No worry about spicing each dish to individual needs, everyone can top off to make how spicy they want. Sometimes see abuelitas pulling their favorite hot sauce out of a hand bag, maybe with a pack of tortillas as well, not paying restaurant prices for tortillas.
Can ask for chilies, chilie paste and chili oil at many Asian restaurants in case need to top off spicyness. Works best when eating family style.
In my experience, mexican restaurants don’t have particularly spicy sauces available. They can prepare food quite spicy, but they almost never have good sauces. The local Mexican place I go too has the most basic of sauces so I just bring my own because their food is excellent, it just needs more spice.
