I stopped by one day after work for takeout and was not disappointed! My go-to order is the Chori-Pollo -- which is sliced chicken, chorizo, smothered in queso, rice, and beans (I always ask for black instead of refried). It's incredible and it comes with tortillas so you can mix the goodness up and make little tacos with it.

Coming from Texas, I have missed a good Taco Tuesday, El Paso Mexican Restaurant hit the spot. $35…read morefor 20 tacos on Tuesdays! Their Lengua has a 50 cent up charge per taco but it is quite worth it. As you can see, they load up their taco, the barbacoa is very juicy and el pastor is solid. It comes with two servings of rice and beans which I found quite delicious too. The chips and salsa were quite disappointing, it did not feel home made but I feel like I shouldn't complain since it is free. I would suggest having the chips with the bottled salsas since those are much tastier. The interior of the restaurant is an explosion of color and decor, this adds to the dining experience. The service is mediocre at best but the food will bring me back.

This time we tried a bowl and the Gringo burrito Gordita-style, which just means it's smothered in queso (we chose jalapeño, but there's also chipotle queso). Everything was fine, but we were still hungry afterward. Overall, not terrible

The pollo al carbón taco was good and well seasoned. Ordering was a little confusing. There is a bar in the middle and the register is on the back right side. I was told to sit down and that my food would be brought out, but I ended up having to go grab it myself while solo dining and risking losing my table. I also skipped a margarita because the bar was very busy. Sports were on the TV though, which was a big plus. Overall a solid spot, just could use a clearer ordering flow.

We would have ordered more but we have to admit that we happily munched on so many warm chips and salsa that we didn't have any more room.  The space is decorated with fun murals and odes to Dia de los Muertos themes.  It is colorful and bright. The service was friendly and attentive, the parking was easy and there is a lot to choose from on the menu.  We will definitely be back.

For starters we chose the Trio Dip. It includes queso, salsa and guac. The chips are fresh and they do provide a nice big portion($12). I ordered 2 tacos that were filled with lots of protein. Service was super quick since we were the only people in the restaurant. Staff was very attentive. We do like the decor and the tvs in the bar area.

The kids ground beef tacos were too spicy for my kids. At first bite it isn't bad but as you chew the spices intensify. We ordered corn dog for my toddler and the meal was cold. My wife ordered the chicken enchiladas and the rice was hard and crunchy as though it was sitting out for a long time. I was upset because the weather is perfect today. They had the wall open. The ambience is awesome here. Great decor, no dinner rush, music was perfect. I was hoping we were going to discover a new local favorite. I was really looking forward to those margaritas; coco and sangarita. Wasn't meant to be today I guess. Disappointed Dad. Robecks Juice bar next door for the rescue with outside patio seating available too.

Love the food overall -- they've got flavor down. The tacos? Solid 3/5 -- not life-changing, but…read morethey get the job done. Now the juices? On. Point. Super fresh and full of flavor -- definitely a highlight! The deli has a cozy little seating area, which is great if you wanna chill and enjoy your food. Plus, the store itself is packed with all kinds of goodies -- you'll probably leave with more than you planned. Only downside? The service could use some love. Not the friendliest or fastest, but hey... worth it if you're not in a rush. Would I go back? For the juice and snacks -- absolutely. For the tacos? Maybe, if I'm already nearby.

I ordered tacos de lengua without onions, but they came with onions anyway. When I brought it up, both the cashier and the Lady with glasses running the expo line showed zero empathy or professionalism. This isn't just about onions--it's about respect. As a loyal customer, I expect to be heard. I may still come back, because I truly enjoy the food, but I really hope management and ownership takes this seriously and provides proper training in customer service. No one should be made to feel dismissed or ignored. Estoy muy decepcionada por el trato que recibí en Mi Tierra Deli de mi propio vecindario--un lugar que realmente aprecio por su comida deliciosa. Pedí tacos de lengua sin cebolla, pero los sirvieron con cebolla de todas formas. Al comentarlo, tanto la cajera como la señorita con lentes en la linea de Expo en la cosina mostraron cero empatía ni profesionalismo. Esto no se trata solo de cebolla, se trata de respeto. Como clienta fiel, espero ser escuchada. Puede que vuelva, porque me encanta la comida, pero sinceramente espero que la gerencia tome esto en serio y brinde capacitación adecuada en atención al cliente. Nadie debería sentirse ignorado o menospreciado.

Before I left the DMV area, I spotted a sign that a new restaurant was coming to my favorite…read moreshopping center, Barcroft Plaza (it holds my gym, my bank, my dry cleaner, etc.). I activated full stalker mode--I did drivebys and peeked in the windows. Most of my trips back to the DMV were either quick or so jampacked that I haven't had a chance to return to Barcroft Plaza. The halal and organic menu features chimichangas, tacos, burritos, bowls, and salads. You can choose from meat, shrimp, or grilled veggies. First, I grabbed chips, guacamole, and queso (yes, two dipping sauces--we listen, and we don't judge). Both were good, but I enjoyed the queso more, and it was even better as leftovers the next day. One of the things that I must try at a Mexican restaurant is birria, which I read was only available on Tuesdays and Sundays (I learned later that this is true for all locations except Barcroft). Babe, the birria was so tender and made with their handmade corn tortillas. The melty cheese tacos and the unami consommé have my stamp of approval. Per my nutritionist's instructions, I grabbed veggie tacos for a more balanced meal.
